Small guide for BL GM
Now if you take a look at my kill/death rate in-game, you will see that I am not one of the best people around. But just because i have a negative kill/death and suck in-game doesn't mean i don't know how to play.
BL in ghost mode takes a whole lot more skill than in any other mode. The odds are really unbalenced. but that doesn't mean that BL can't win. In fact, the opposite.
(note that all of this is my opinion, and i may be so wrong that it looks ridiculous.)
My observations and thinking lead me to believe there are two playing styles (and a hybrid of both)
Stealth:
Some people perfer to let GR pass them and not ever try to attack them. They usually like to know which site to go to, so that they can concentrate from moving to one site instead of hunting down GR. Least popular playing style. Emphasis on bomb placement and B-hops.
Rushers:
These people have a more aggressive move on GR. Most (not all) rushers do not know or use B-hops. They perfer to drop the bomb if they recieve it and hunt down GR, running at them and trying to overwhelm them. Second most popular playing style. Emphasis on aiming and dodging.
Hybrid:
These people will either try to use B-hops and running to get around the map and hunt down the GR (Rush orriented) or use B-hops and wait for the enemy to pass them and strike them (Stealth orriented). Most popular playing style. Emphasis on Rush and Stealth skills, and bomb placement if needed.
If you want to be successful in BL GM, you will need to have a few skills. If you don't have mastery of all skills, fine. I assume that you can be flexible and change strategies according to what skills you do and don't have.
(not in any particular order)
Bunny hopping:
probably one of the most important skills in BL GM (i'll refer to it as BLGM to make it easier on me). Some people say it's a glitch, but if double jumping is a glitch, then so is bunny hopping. That's what it pretty much is. The "Physics" around bunny hopping has to do with how the double jump works (If you don't know what a double jump is, I'm pretty sure there are some guides around to inform you). With the double jump, you never really "touch" the ground. The apperance is similar to that of levitating. If you never touch the ground, then the game doesn't register movement. I suppose that movement is judged upon moving on the ground (this is why if you jump you stay invisible). As there are numerous B-hopping guides around, i suppose i don't need to teach this.
Aiming:
Not a needed skill, but you will need this or the bunny hop if you are going to live in BL. Bunny hopping is more for people who have stealth over rushing. If you can't aim, don't rush. Try playing some Knife matches to sharpen your skills. Try stabs over slashes, and aim for the head
Dodging:
Needed if you are in a bad position where the GR have found you and are a long distance away, and think that you can take them on. Pretty much just jumping from side to side while moving foward. Practice in MM while being a mutant, dodging the bullets.
Observation:
A no-brainer, although many people forget (and i have died countless times from not using it). If you're moving into an area, check for GR's everywhere. If you don't, you may just have a camping GR shoot you down. If you spot one, you got two options, you can B-hop and continue, or if you can't B-hop you can just run and jump and hope the camper misses.
I'm pretty sure many people have mastered all of these skills without trying. Great. If you got any other skills just post below and i may add them. Thanks for reading.

Good guide
I like to sit behind pillars and shovel people.. :d
Or kill the people in lab that hide in the vents from down below, and plant the c4 in strange locations to make the gr confused, and cleave (hit multiple people) them once they are mid-way through defusing. -
the "stealth" thing doesn't really work because that's what idiots doWekWek_Kaito wrote: »What determines your aim on a knife.
The knife itself? or the Crosshairs?
if you want a HS, aim a bit above the head...always worked for me when i used a knife
idk how ppl get the no hs 100 hp kills though... -

Small part in the middle of back, small part in the middle of chest,
I think. -

well obviously if you know that you can't aim at all (me :P) and you attempt to attack you are pretty much asking for a free death.
And this is all my opinion. If it doesn't work, oh well.

The crosshairs. what do you mean by a knife? -
'just because i have a negative kill/death and suck in-game doesn't mean i don't know how to play'
lol? what does it mean then
do u have a rlly high ping?
no offence but im pretty sure any1 who played gm knows immediately u will do better if u aim for head, dodge bullets and bhop
observation well u already said its a no brainer -

sorry for double post but... that means even if i suck in-game i still know the basic concepts and stuff. -
I think a more effective way of playing Black List would be to apply constant movement to your hybrid method. Bunnyhop almost constantly to keep from getting pinpointed and shot down while still being able to take down enemies.
For one-hit KO non-headshot kills you need to stab somewhat in the spinal cord in the back and near the heart in the front. Why gonad stabs don't OHKO, I'll never know.
And don't forget the mid bunnyhop stabs for advanced players

this guide is useless most people do these things and and just rage,
Either learn to Hop or just dont play BL

well that's why i said "I'm pretty sure many people have mastered all of these skills without trying."
No they have not mastered those skills
sure every1 knows it but most people cant do it
aim for head every time but it doesnt kill every time
try bhop invisible all the time but sumtimes u fail
try to dodge and die anyway
pay attention and end up missing someone
ive played a long time i definitely have not mastered these skills
i fail bhop every game
i fail at paying attention every game
but im still good
