 when you have a 3-man team, should you just run to you bunkers off the brake?, or should you shoot and run at the same time, since there are no back guys. thanks

backman shoots, frontman runs as fast as possible, mid man can shoot and run, or just run.

Its an inside joke from someone else's sig.

We try to use 2 backmen and 1 front, the firepower really helps IMO. Sometimes I try to shoot the backs off the break though, they move really slow when they walk to lane.
Give me a chance, I'll give you a welt.

In a three man game, its most important to have all three players in the game as long as possible, and sending someone to far up front right away can be somewhat hazardous to your team.

If you want to play the format right, 2 people walking/running to their back bunkers while shooting(usually going to the back tapes or corners), and one just getting to his bunker as fast as possible and shooting when and only when he gets there. After that its pretty much just 3 1 on 1s on the same field at the same time.

But, dont take my advice in sending people to the back off the break and think that its a defense game. You have to be agressive(obviously), but i think more so than any other format(except x-ball). And if you are down one, then is the time to play defense. try and keep them from moving, and if they do, be sure and let your partner know, and hope that he has a shot on him if you dont. If its a one on two/three, try and get to yourself to a tape bunker so that the other player can only come from one side, so you can at least get him if he tries to bunker you.

 

Im bored, i hve no clue why i wasted so much time on that. You better be greatful, because if your not...**shakes his fist**
