Paintball has many aspects to it. As an experienced player I cannot deny that placement is yet another important part of the game; find yourself in the wrong place and you’ll be out in seconds. On the contrary place yourself strategically and you can take out player after player. These paintball bunker tips will help you stay on the right track, learn them, apply them and refine them using your own unique style.

1. Work on your cover. From a bunker you are a free target at certain sides, you should be aware of what are your exposed angles. You should be able to move around the bunker to avoid incoming shots. If you are playing a speedball match, you should take advantage of the many bunkers and allowing the same kind of dodging movement. If the bunkers are waist height, you should watch for a better barrier. If they overlap, this will give you a greater chance of not being detected, be careful and move quickly when needed to avoid detection.

2. Study your offensive actions. Does the bunker allows you shoot safely, does it help you move safely? These are questions you should be asking frequently to develop an inner sense of placement. Although the offensive ability relies on the players, some bunkers can be moved so you can advanced while attacking the enemy. I cannot stress enough how important is to work on this. An offensive movement consists of getting the sense to avoid being hit while cutting the movement to the enemy.

3. Know what are the bunker name’s. Every activity has its lingo and paintball is not an exception. If you’re starting out just ask, this will give you a great advantage in in-game communication. For example if someone yells at you Dorito! You’ll know what type of bunker to head to instead of taking out your snacks!

That’s it folks. Remember that placement and bunker knowledge is something to develop slowly. When the time has come you’ll be ready to take out as many players as a human can and you’ll See fields in a new way.
