Snipers Guide - Flagging

Flagging

Capturing the flag is worth 15 points. A kill is only worth 1 point. So if you want to win, flagging should always be your highest priority.

The enemy's flag is located between their turrets, so you'll have to venture into their base to get it. Touching the flag takes it, and then you'll need to bring it back to your base to capture it before you die.

Example of a basic flag.

Tips

  • If the enemy flag has been taken, no one else can go and take it.
  • It's possible to capture the enemy flag even if your flag is taken. These 'flag trades' happen quite often in high level games.
  • Make sure you protect your teammate, if they have the flag. The flagger's life is more valuable than your own.
  • Watch out for respawning enemies when you go in to get the flag! Try to be aware of who is dead and respawning so you don't get caught off guard.
