- I was asked about the different positions in paintball and understanding better what each role is. What's a 1? What's a 2? What's a 3? Let's dive in!
Oh also, the layout comes out for Chicago NXL on the 28th, not the 29th.

How To Play Paintball
Watch. Learn. Win.
Yo man Thanks for what you do! You and a few others have inspired me to dust off the gear and hit the field again. Picked up a used Etek 5 and some other junk. I’ll be out balling next weekend for the first time in probably 10 years.
The Greg effect 💪
Lol thanks guys! Grow the sport!

Not sure if you guys cares but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch all the new series on InstaFlixxer. Have been streaming with my brother for the last couple of days :)
@Jad Elon definitely, been watching on Instaflixxer for months myself :D
I was that center 50 at the past tournament. My job was to prevent any player from reaching snake 1. I went a few games that I traded out with their 50 player and only had to shoot 2-3 paintballs. Very odd staying there patiently and baiting them but it was something I had never done.
Great video by the way!💪
Yea sometimes the center player just needs to be the most patient one!
Learned everything I know about playing my spot by watching Yosh and trying to understand why he does what he does and when he does it. Coming back into the game after a 4-5 year hiatus and I'm glad to see he's still out there being the highest quality example of a back center player.
Yosh is an amazing player!
Yes!! I'm looking forward to Chicago.
Be sure to say hi!!!
Badass how you give game plans that teams can use off the actual lay out, no one else does that!
♥️
Hope you guys do well in Chicago! You have great vids for folks learning the game and for the folks like me that have been around forever. Always looking for knowledge! Pbfit shows that you don't need to be completely athletic to play well. I know, I know d3 but rankings don't mean much to me.
Athleticism helps for sure. The way I workout and drill now I wish I started years ago.
Definetely More detailed than my current job description 🤣 this should be called "Paintball 101: roles and responsabilities". Merch incoming the hype Is real.!!!!!!!!!
Lol thanks!
I equated it to football positions to folks in the past. The back guy is like a QB in the sense that you need to read the field and help direct. COMMUNICATION so everyone knows what's up. The fronts/ or 1's are the WR's on the field. Controlled but yet looking to break something open! The mids/ or 2's are the running backs. They just plow a path for those WR's lol. I also used the lineman analogy for the back guys because we are big ugly and get no glory but we play just important of a role and the superstars lol!
Awesome video as always man! One question: What does that mean when you "have someone's tape"?
Basically that you are holding the outside of their bunker closest to the out of bounds line. If the player is looking inside the field and I am behind them I will shoot their “tape” to protect them on the outside.
It means hes holding aim straight down the sidelines to protect snake player.
Do you have a video on hyperball layouts? We are doing a 5 man on a 10 man field in a couple weeks and looking for some tips to spread and still work as a solid line I know we will have to be loud and constantly talk..
Nothing on Hyperball but all the fundamentals work for Xball as for Hyperball. Find the bodies and work together as a unit 👍
I’m new to paintball and want to go and do speed ball but I’m not sure of the positions they call out when on the field like snake.
I have a generic bunker name video!
For big events or tournaments, are teams responsible to bring their own paint or buy it from the field the day of the tournament?
Depends on the event. The NXL has requirements for paint to be purchased through approved vendors. Some local events might let you bring your own though.
Can you make a video of the different locations on the map?
Do you mean what each bunker looks like in a layout?
Revisiting some of your older content regarding roles and rules and basics type stuff. This description seems to be more relevant to a 5-man team. How does this translate to like a D6 team format that's only 3-man?
This would still work for a three man team. Think of the 1 as a front player, 2 as mid, 3 as back.
Any tips on trying out for a team? It’ll be my first team tryout but I’ve been playing for a while.
Imo, just relax and play your game. Don't try and be a rockstar! Be humble (don't be a mouse either lol) and ready to listen to feedback from the coach or the established guys. Play smart is all. Don't be nervous man! It is after all, paintball and it is fun as hell! Especially when your team is winning!
Agreed! Play aggressive and don’t overthink things. Be a good teammate and communicate real well. Be confident!
Being on time or even early for it. Listen to music as you wait or whatever helps you get in the zone.
Just do your thing when playing.
While learn from mistakes. Improvement on the field also shows too.
Then everything else that was said.
I’d definitely agree with being early!
Thanks I really appreciate it for all the tips. I’m a bit nervous but I’m ready to play.
What does shooting the tape mean or watching someone’s tape ?
The tape is the outside line down a set of bunkers. So the tape would be the “line” down a set of bunkers on the snake or dorito side.
@@howtoplaypaintball thank you
What does tape mean? Like “I’m not watching your tape anymore”
Down the side of them closest to out of bounds
Explain front and dorito pls
Check my previous videos I have some 👍
Nast bruise in that inner arm. That from a paintball?!
Haha! I think I just bruise easy when I get shot. Sometimes they can look real bad.
What does it mean when someone yells someone is a G! ?
That they shot someone out from the other team
LowCoupe G = gone
We rather use Kill cause G sounds too close to D which could be used to make a call on the Doritos.
Yea we use Kill on the MLKings.
Who's the baby???
I have no idea what you’re talking about sorry haha
Lies!!! I've been binge watching PB videos and seen a few different teams use that term on the field 🤣 👶
Oh! Haha! Yea it’s a code people use for a bunker.
