This one's not really sneaky, and I'm sure everyone tried it as soon as they went into Avalanche, but if you're standing outside the little shortcut through the middle (where there's a sniper rifle, battle rifle, two plasma nades, and overshield - aka- MLG Heaven!) you can toss nades into the mancannons in the center, and they'll land right where the flag and bomb plant sites are. Plus, the plasma nades respawn pretty quickly.

Also, thanks to garbage KSPR for showing a ton of jumps on Blackout. I found another one though. You can jump from BR tower all the way down to bottom lift. The only thing is, you don't really have enough momentum with the bomb or flag, otherwise it would make for about a 15 second cap.

As for blackout, it is best to play it like guardian, due to the obvious reasons that the map is very similar, one notable difference, is that i tend to use BR's more on blackout than i do on guardian, as there seems to be more room.

If you need practice with the BR, then go to MLG settings. Remember to aim for the neck, not the head because of the BR spread. The BR bullets will go above the head if you aim at the head, but if u aim at the neck, the bullets will go up and hit the head, try to use these tips.

don't aim for the head, you're supposed to aim for the neck.  Anyone who knows their halo will agree with me

yeah i kinda noticed that not all of the bullets were hitting so ive been trying that its helped a little but i dont think thats my problem. when I play offline against people i know i completely rape but when i get online i completely suck.
