A how to tutorial teaching players safe ways to handle close range encounters through controlled movements, verbal cues, and spacing awareness.

Key Points

  • Introduces non confrontational verbal cues.
  • Covers safe positioning to avoid accidental contact.
  • Explains how to disengage safely if surprised.
  • Supports close range awareness and predictable behavior.

Details

While specific field rules vary, this tutorial focuses on general safe behavior during close encounters. Players learn to reduce speed when approaching bunkers that may hide opponents.

Verbal cues such as “hit,” “out,” or “you’re good” help prevent unnecessary exchanges at very short distances. Players are encouraged to announce their presence if surprised rather than firing impulsively.

The guide reinforces keeping markers pointed slightly off center when extremely close to another player, promoting safer transitions.

Maintaining awareness, minimizing sudden movements, and using simple communication prevent discomfort and reduce accidents.
