It's generally advised to try to claim the central area, since it has a good view of either side of the map. Avoid areas with campers and stick to areas with lots of cover and corners.

Stick Around the Hallway for Kills

Players tend to frequent the hallway area of Skidrow, as it is a great place for gunfights. Try to claim this area with your team as fast as possible. The long corridor allows for quick, long-range sniping, while the rooms on either side allow one to sneak by or outmaneuver opponents.

Snipe From Windows

There are also several windows and vantage points here that peek out to the rest of the map. While you're here, occasionally look out windows to scan for incoming enemies. Don't linger too long, and only take a split second's peep before shooting an enemy then heading off toward the next vantage point.

Don't Stay Out in Open Areas

Try to get out of areas like the parking lot, loading dock, and the playground, since you will be easily sniped here. The garage is also a risky place to stick around, as people usually camp the door that leads from the garage to the movie store.

Enter via the back alleys and through tunnels to lessen your chances of being shot from hidden vantage points.

Stay Mobile Always

Always sprint whenever you can, and try to incorporate advanced movement tips to your arsenal, like sliding around corners or going prone in the middle of a 1-on-1 gunfight to become a harder target. Improving your survivability with our combat tips will increase your chances of coming out victorious.
