When someone first plays Soldier, they immediately understand what the class is capable of, at least more or less. But to truly understand how high Soldier skill limit is, we need to spend about 40 minutes creating a slideshow explaining every single detail, which I'm not really wanting to do. And I don't think you would want me to do that either. Even if you are new to Team Fortress 2, if you see a high level player played Soldier, your brain basically goes... Now that you understand Soldier's abilities, let's move on to how Soldier acquires his powers. Unlike other First Person shooters such as Counter Strike, in TF2, your movement is just as important as your aim. It's extremely true for Soldier. But before we even begin to get into all of that, I'm gonna say, if your mindset is, I'm good enough. I don't need to learn how to rocket jump to be good. You'll never go anywhere, sorry. In the beginning of a player's career, we're competitively playing this game. That statement alone is gonna make you feel like you're racing a car with your shoes tied. Seriously, it's very important to not have this mindset. This is not a jump tutorial video. If you want to jump tutorial video, click here. This video is more forgiving you the tools for success. Have you ever looked at a player and thought, how does he do that? How does he jump with so naturally? I can't even begin to do any of that. That begins for most players in jump schools. One thing I did when I first started playing Soldier is I went on Jump Beef known as the easiest jump map. After I beat it, sometimes whatever skill you're at, it takes a while. Sometimes it can take like 20 minutes, 30 minutes an hour. But once you finish the map for the first time, you already know that you can do it. You can take that one step further by doing it again and again and again until you can do it really quickly. This is not always true for high level jump maps because it could be very hard. But for Jump Beef, what I did was I kept doing it until I can beat it under 3 minutes. I encourage you to do the same because it really helped me out. I strongly encourage you to go into higher level jump maps but I'm not gonna cover that in this video. Now we move on to aim. Now you may be asking yourself how am I supposed to hit all these shots that all these players are doing in frag movies? Well, the answer is actually really simple. Practice. It's a scary word but you actually have to practice in this video game. Now if you are new to TF2, you might not know what that means so I'm gonna help you with that. What I did personally, which I highly recommend for newer players, if you can't even hit a shot like an air shot specifically, well any player should go on bot maps. But what I took away from that is when you air shot someone on T.R.A.W.A.C.A.R.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A.C.W.A The M.G.E. M.G.E. is a 1v1 game mode made for you to get better at the game by using 1v1 fast-paced situations. Not going to lie, you're probably not going to find anyone on the same level when you're in M.G.E. server at least at the very beginning. So what I would recommend and it's also what I've done, I messaged my friends that asked them to M.G.E. me because usually your people that you know, your friends, probably about the same skill level as you, this will help you improve instead of just getting crushed over and over again. After a while of M.G.E. and you actually grow quite a bit, you should be able to take on random players. But don't get discouraged though, there's always going to be someone better than you, but instead of being like, oh this guy's so much better than me, I feel so bad now. What you should take away from that player's skill is, whoa, it's possible to be that good. I want to be just like them. And that pretty much sums up the video. This tutorial has taught you the guidelines on how to get good at soldier. Later on I might make a video on specific tips on soldiers. I hope you learned something from the video and I'll see you later.
