Now is your chance to learn from them in our monthly Tips and Tricks from the Pros feature. This month, with QuakeCon just past, you might be looking for a few tips to find out how those amazing skills in the CTF and Duel championship matches were pulled off. Check out these tips for QuakeLive from Fnatic. "It is vital to know the map you're playing on, study it. Learn where the weapons, armour and health are located. Also take note of possible power-ups on the map and possible height advantages you can derive from the map. All of this will assist you against your opponent." "The best way to learn how to play is to imitate someone who is good at the game. So join a game, preferably with a higher skill level than yourself, and where possible as a spectator. Watch and learn what the best players do and take notes, studying their map routines, timing, routes and tricks." See More Tips and Tricks in our New Guide
