How to get good at javs

[Harder]

Hey guys,

so apparently my squad is in both lj and ld. wootsauce. I figured i would get better at javs this season.
Any tips / pointers. I think i have sorta mastered war-bird why not try my luck at the ship that has bullet as bomb and bomb as bullet!

Much appreciated broskis.

Bullet to chase enemies.

Dont stray bombs, only shoot when they could hit.

Try to avoid using shift to dodge

Im not the best jav out there, but some basical rules i can shoot out.

Aren't there some posts or manuals out there for javing or basing?

I know Burnt had made a WB guide that was well-received a while back.

pretend it's a wb and you are pretty much good to go. this is under the assumption that you know what a bomb is, what an explosion is and what a wall is.

if you still have problems after this: get better at wb

know all the possible jav bounces and typical shots. if the enemy is setting himself up for a bounce that would look like you're at the receiving end for, dodge then.

For counter attacks, dodge into a position that compromises his original approach before he even gets to set up.

If you don't understand what I just said... play more javs.

I'll post a screen shot later to show a perfect example of what I just said.

Here's an example of the common bounces I was speaking of earlier. If you know a lot of these common shots, you'll see your opponents begin to set up for that shot. In the mean time, you could set up for your counter-attack. The image below shows one of my favorite counter-attacks.

It would be dumb to go <- in that situation anyways since bomb most likely gets luckstrayed on the platform below you and can kill you.

Dumb for who to go <- ? Which platform below me at which moment?

I just brought up that scenario in particular because it's 1. common, 2. easy to demonstrate, 3. results idealy, and 4. is my favorite shot that I have actually successfully performed on countless occasions (which I admit is possibly mirrored by the amount of times it has failed such as in times where I mistime the lunge, misfire the bullets/bomb in the counter-attack, or the opponent was smart enough to back up and take cover instead of watching their own bomb.)

And another thing.... a good way to improve your dodging is to not watch where your bomb goes. Many times will there be floating bullets idling near where you decide to launch a bomb. You'll unknowingly drift into a bullet while watching your own bomb, in amazement, miss it's target. There are other occasions where watching your bomb's flight path would be a bad idea, especially in JD matches.

ohhh... thats a pretty long explanation, why don't you just say: "hide behind a wall until enemy shoots a bomb"?

keep em comin' tho :)

I remember back when ?go javs was active, I used to watch some really good newer players get better and than better than me.

But now, there's baseelim. Play 100 in a row, try out different styles and see how they work. . However eventually settle down to one style, else you'll end up javing like Struck. Kid's about the most CONFUSED player on this game, like good lord. And if you actually want to learn how to get better, i honestly suggest watching the best players on some of the top squads But I recommend not spectating Ease or Myself. Most of my maneuvers contain an implied: "DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME" . But, if you do spectate me and decide to replicate my moves, you will be required to sign a mandatory waiver, which I can have e-mailed to you within the week!

Play a few baseelim games without bombing and see how well you can dodge (of course play as if you are bombing, dont be in a corner saying "look mommy! i'm getting better!!!!!! I can feel the skills pulsing through my tab key" like are you done?

Good Luck and feel free to drop me any messages in game.
