How to Flank properly?

Hey its me again, the guy who asked you how to get most of the frags per round/game, now it seems the flank is very important and, you guys when you are on the forums i assume that you have the time to tell something about flanking properly.

Tell all you know about Flanking to me please. more detailed ones too.

  • well im not a very experienced player on team strats but i think flanking is basic enough(still dont base yourself on what i say here XD it may or may not be good enough since im only goin for the theory side), there are only 3 steps:

    -get a decoy or the feel of the enemy position(then if its a easily flankable position get the decoy ready to go guns blazing or doing noise)
    -flank(doing little noise or none if possible)
    -shoot

    you can try this on pubs, but... well teamwork isnt very good there, but its still good to test the basics

    the thing you may want to focus is the enemy must have their attention turned to anywhere but you, that will give u precious time to land more hits then them, so you dont need to run miles to flank, you just need them to turn backs or side on you
  • Person on site throws counter-flashes. Mid rotater helps out with spam / counter flashes and hold up T side. If CT are smart they'll stack site. Quick rotates > trying to flank is much better in my experience. Only go for a flank if you've got like 2 people pushed up, e.g. A push on Ceyhan. 1 CT is on T bridge, another CT is close mid. When T push A the 2 of them flank from behind while the last CT just makes noise in mid and puts down smoke to cover the two coming from tuns.

    You understood all that, yet you don't understand basic flanking?

  • Always go through mid in any pub game. for instance go long A then go through A connect and end up in mid. You'll end up behind a couple people most of the time. However people catch on so they start to wait for you
  • Well full out flanking such as GR flanking BL on BW, isn't very common in scrims since you have to HOLD your site, not rush

    But this is basically how to flank

    -Watch mid, if you don't see anyone then wait for your team to call nades, footsteps, shots, anything that will give away their position.

    -Once you know where they are, rush up mid but try to make not very much noise

    -Call to your team that you're flanking, so they'll try and be a distraction and let you get in behind them without BL getting to a site and planting

    -Peek corners. VERY frustrating doing all this, and getting camped by someone waiting for a flanker

    -Don't get excited when you see a TON of people, like I do. Try to actually aim and hopefully take out a majority of the players.
