half shield strat

how it works?

You save 600 a round, so you have more buy rounds. Watch sliggy vid on Liquid’s YT channel.

You buy full shield enemy buy vandal enemy shoot u in the head u die. You buy half shield enemy buy vandal enemy shoot u in the head u die.

basically buying vandal/phantom + full armour is 3900, but with half its only 3300. you save 600 credits so when you lose a round, when you get minimum 1900 credits, you only need about 1500 credits from previous round compared to 2000 if you buy half with gun. so on ecos, you can buy up more. also, vandal does 120 for 3 body shots and 160 for 4. so if they use vandal the half shield makes no difference compared to full shield. however, if you get headshot 140 with phantom at 15-30 metres, you die with half shield but not with full shield. if you get hit by grenades/mollies, it will only take three shots with either vandal or phantom at pretty much any range to die as well.

watch team liquid video

its a gamble, as there is a chance that you die to abilities spam and u def shouldnt do this strat against ecos or half buys.

DRX is gonna destroy this strat with their phantoms🗿

i used to buy half armor most of the time cuz 400 is so much cheaper than 600 more just for 25 hp which in the end is just not worth it imo someone just gonna run and gun u and u die but my friends wouldnt understand and start blaming me whenever the round ends so i stopped it

Just buy sheriff and full shield and pick up ur gun after ur team mate dies or enemy dies. 🙃
