a good teammate is one who applies pressure, be it through healing, the threat of reviving, or punishing people with certain lines of sights (by shooting them). Shields just generate that pressure very differently, through presence and being hard to deal with. Very cool gameplay Pressure being defined as the threat of generating an advantage. Enough pressure difference between 2 teams and a fight ends rapidly
This was very insightful. Learned a bit and can't wait to apply these techniques. Especially loved the sideways approach with the shield at idle. That was cool
It's always great to see other riot shield mains. But you are probably overusing right click. If you get comfortable with the shield being on your left, you will be fine without the right click. Also, in case you decide to play very agressive and dive in the enemy team all game, you can swap the healing beam out as well as the aps. These 2 make you exist in positional (aka ranged) fight. If you swap them out though, you will be a bigger menace in combat
Thanks for the advice! Since I recorded those clips I got more and more confortable with using the shield in its passive state and I do agree that it is the most optimized method. As for the gadgets, I play what I find fun and I admit the ideal load out for me would include flashbangs though I find them bad in this game.
alot of people dont understand that just being there can be all the difference like you said just because you were there you completely stopped a flank. thats why even if i play the game with friends who say they aren't as good at the game i always say. you just being here rather then a random that wonders off is all we need to be a good team. doesnt matter if you dont feel like you do much. your still doing better then at least 50% of the players in this game if not more.
You run diagonally towards the enemy while keeping them on your left side, so the shield protects your left side while your run. You cannot run while holding the shield up to your face.

Well put!

Glad it was helpful! I intend to make more because this weapon is still my favorite
Clean gameplay!

How do you run with the shield in front?
You run diagonally towards the enemy while keeping them on your left side, so the shield protects your left side while your run. You cannot run while holding the shield up to your face.
@@Jinko_ but its on your thumbnail and I have accidently done it many times before. They must have gotten rid of it, maybe it was op
Oh, that's just the inspection animation. It doesn't actually block bullets in this state. Check your key binds.
I don't know why but i have the impression that you have a little french accent
Non...
