Tips

- This weapon is recommended in middle range battles. If there is enemy in far range, try not to move and shoot so it will become more accurate.
- Treat this weapon as if you're using the AWP.
- Try to not stay so far from your target because this weapon isn't accurate in long range.
- If you choose to rush, rush with teammates so that the enemies wouldn't target you.
- Always perform a quick switch (Default key: "Q") after a shot as it is much quicker and allows you to kill your enemy with your secondary if you missed or if they are still alive.
- Before zooming, duck to ensure that your shot would be accurate, then fire.
- An 'Magazine size' enhancement is recommended for defensive purpose and killing multiple targets.
