Team Fortress Classic Hints
Is there any way for me to get my frags up?
1 of 4: If you are playing in a serious game, then do not try to get your frags up. You will end up annoying another players in the game by specifically going after snipers personally. Nine times out of ten, you will not survive the encounter.
2 of 4: Sometimes you get caught alone and you just have to fend for yourself. Basically try circle-strafing your oppenent while trying to hit him with your umbrella. You might just win.
3 of 4: The best time to catch snipers off guard is to wait in a known shadowed sniper nest (crouched, of course) for a sniper to show up and take his position. Then start beating him with your umbrella. Usually they become quite confused and you might be able to get a frag out of it while humiliating your opponent at the same time.
4 of 4: You can also challenge snipers to a crowbar/umbrella showdown. These can be fun since the odds are relatively even. Just remember to avoid serious games if you want to play this way.
