Chaingunning....

kvgeorge1 · May 2012

Ok,

I have been playing T2 for several years now, and have gotten pretty good at some things, but still really stink at others, in particular, chaingunning. For some reason, I still don't have this down and when I get into duels, I get wasted every time and I barely get anything on my opponents.

Any suggestions (other than keep practicing)?

Nice! Ok, so what is the best way to use this and other than the description, how does the changing of the prediction variables affect using the CG?

When you try it you will understand. It removes some of the smoothing frames from the game, and shows a more accurate depiction of true gamestate.

Yes. The all-powerful IP. I liked it, however, I did learn without it. So I don't use it anymore. But good luck! XD
