Guide:-JAM3S-'s Guide For Beginners In Melee



The Weapon Class Melee is a very special and unique type of weapon. Melee weapons can be used in all modes from game modes from Elimination to Quarantine and even to Fireteam. However you will rarely see players use their Melee weapons in situations not including the occasional slash in the air or for speed. In this guide, I will be trying to teach and help beginner Melee players to get good at Melee and hope that there will be more Melee games in the future.

Which Weapon?
Many new beginners will wonder what weapon they should use best, just like when they first use the weapons from the other classes or when they play an unfamiliar game mode to them. There are many GP Melee weapons that can outperform the NX Melee weapons as they have very similar features.

Here is a list of weapons good for short range:
 * Sickle
 * Tracker
 * Tiger Strider
 * Note that since these weapons are more suitable for short range, they have a faster ROF.

Here is a list of weapons good for long range:
 * Dom Pedro
 * Ninjato

General Tips For Beginners
As a beginner you will want the easiest and the most useful tips. The tips below are simple and easy to follow and will hopefully make you a better meleer!
 * ALWAYS aim for the head. Like when using all other weapon classes ALWAYS aim for the head. This may seem like a very obvious rule but I have seen way to many beginners not following this and wondering why I keep getting headshots. Also since in Melee you have to go up to your enemy at clos range you can directly aim at their head making it a 1 hit kill.
 * Crouching. Although I personally do not use this technique much many professional Meleers use this technique. Usually this technique works well to catch your enemy off guard. For example you and your enemy are spamming the heck out of your knifes and don’t seem to have much of a result. If you suddenly crouch and attack them they will get hit. Also it will be harder for them to hit you because you have a smaller hitbox when you crouch.
