Learning When To Retreat Can Help You Win Fights! - Beyond The Grave

[@JesseKazam]

Have you ever got killed while trying to heal in Tarkov?

[@acidneon516]

Look Jesse, I'm sure we all have. Was that a rhetorical question?

[@boondogglet132]

Trying to heal on customs after losing a firefight outside vip exfil. Got a grenade shower. He threw maybe 4 or 5 just to flush me out. The first one went about 20-30m past my feet but the audio cue put it at my feet so i tried to move away. I would have been safer being stupid and staying put.

[@czproductions]

Actually I haven't, definitely had some close call though. I usually bait healing twice to see if they push before doing it for real lol

[@Reeceezy]

Dude I got trapped in the bus on the bridge yesterday in customs, had to do 5 surgeries, teammates doing his own surgeries, I knew they could hear me stapling away. Didn't make it out of that one, epic firefight though there was 4 different 2 man teams. Edit - teammate healed up and cleaned house except for last guy down below somewhere, head tapped him. He had a very good time looting I'm sure.

[@czproductions]

Always love to nade and then use that sound to cover me retreating and holding a better angle. It's won me so many fights from just tapping dudes in the head after they push

[@Reeceezy]

That's a really good strategy. I'm going to have to keep it in mind. Yesterday outside of dorms in a 1v1 the guy kept throwing grenades and I'd get closer to him under the sound cover. I got way closer than he anticipated and I won. He was way better of a player and way more geared than me, I think he just got overconfident since he won dorms and I kept my cool.

[@acidneon516]

Underrated skill. All the shooters these days deemphasize tactical repositioning as cowardly or a waste of time. Look at battle royale for example, the entire genre is about forcing players together, and guess what happens from that? You go down from 100 players to one. Remember, Tarkov is a survival game firstly, and a combat game after that.

[@_VinSi]

I mean repositioning is probably the most important thing, it's not about killing, it's about not getting killed, and what is the best way to net get killed if not not being spotted because you keep repositioning after every mag or burst or even tap.

[@leonm4273]

In EFT there is just so much to learn :D Just today I killed a three man at new gas on customs with the mp-153 (for skier´s task). I was super juiced with altyn, m4 and ash 12. Right after that I killed a solo pushing me while I was gathering my loot. Then I went to dorms to take the Car and get out. But at dorms I ran into a super geared and experienced two man. They lit me up good but I managed to kill one of them. At this time I didn´t know there was a second guy so I did not check my surroundings and stumbled right into his arms, low on health and died of cours. A few month ago I could barely take on scavs. Videos like this one are inspiring for me to take most of my defeats as an example to learn from (if the tilt isn´t to big lol). So thanks :)

[@Reeceezy]

Hell yeah nice job bro, win or lose its those games that you will remember every detail

[@leonm4273]

@@Reeceezy agreed :)

[@GreyBeardGamingYT]

I wonder how much a picatinny riser would have helped with sight picture? That muzzle blast in the dark can be so rough.

[@joejoe5921]

i like that you pack your footage into a lesson and you SAY it in the beginning. when i see other videos with a lesson title, i click, and only see them playing a raid. then i kinda feel ripped off and quit lol.

[@solo4o6]

One thing that you might benefit from is aiming lower to get more accurate shots when your recoil is so high. Most of those shots went over their heads. Edit: once played slow I could see your recoil wasn't that bad. That's my fault

[@JusticarDraven]

Started watching you and pestily and have become a lot better at the game thanks for the helpful videos man

[@Threethocks]

Thanks so much! I can see this saving me millions of roubles in the furture!

[@chrisklugh]

I retreat all the time. I'd rather someone push thinking they are chasing someone weak, when really, I'm just setting them up into my little ambush.

[@leonm4273]

heh that strat killed me very often :D now one of my habbits is still pressing W all the way in but to flank big time lol

[@_VinSi]

I'm not scared, it's a tactical retreat!

[@bigbear9182]

Recently running solo with an MP7 been finding myself needing to create space to back off to pack mags pretty often. Running out of ammo has gotten me in some sticky spots recently.

[@Wagnersuperior]

How many mags do you run? MP7 AND P90 require more mags than M4s or AKs for sure.

[@bigbear9182]

Wagnersuperior I do one 40 rounder in the gun and 3 spare. Usually it’s enough but when I’ve gotta do stuff involving raiders or boss scavs with inflated health pools I run into trouble. However also when PVPing for me atleast it’s a mag per kill. Due to the high fire rate and occasionally unruly spray it’s hard to really land shots constantly I’d say past 20 meters. Which is a good deal of my encounters on reserve, customs and shoreline.

[@SteeleTalon]

I throw on the riser for the SA-58 to get the optic over the muzzle flash.

[@Mriswith2k]

Was thinking the same, running anything unpressed with a sight that close to the bore is horrible, I find even the riser not being enough at times, I would've prefered to use a different sight (either a hama/bravo, or something using the high profile trijicon mount), especially in dark areas where the light desaturation from your flash will completely make you loose target.

[@dustinpoeppelman2119]

I like the videos, I finally subscribed after getting them recommended to me for a while lol keep up the quality work!

[@PeaceCompYT]

wish these vids got more support, such useful vids, i improved so much after these vids

[@Kletterhase]

Hey man i know it itsn't much but i really REALLY like your videos! Getting a little better every day. Stay safe, my dude! :)

[@Javier-ov3hj]

I can't tell you how many times I've seen a 3-5 man, take a couple shots, then just nope out of there

[@coyote8427]

as a solo player you gotta pick your fights I agree completely, the best thing to do is get the drop on a squad, kill a couple if you can, and dont overstay your welcome in the fight, even tho leaving the loot is hard sometimes, its often necessary against a group when you're alone

[@user936]

@@coyote8427 it is quite fun to just harass them with a few shots, maybe a 'nade then bugger off 😃 The win is when you make it out alive.

[@coyote8427]

@@user936 correct making it out with whatever you got feels better than dying to the last guy or whatever, it’s also funny hearing them chuck a barrage of nades where they think you are, and you’re just extracting over the other side of the map haha

[@user936]

@@coyote8427 they are throwing all those Roubles away and you're over the next hill 😄

[@iggysface]

also: use that med pop noise to bait the push, then cancel the heal.

[@Fishing-With-Zack0]

1:15 im using an unsuppressed val here....

[@GreyBeardGamingYT]

tried to say "FAL" not VAL tripped me up too.

[@kinz8727]

Happy kazam, yay!

[@tyecote9239]

@JesseKazam have you heard anything on steam audio being fixed? and also what do you use to record you clips while in game? Thanks dude

[@bo0mbo0mbll12]

I do this alot retreat back to my team and they f**ckn shoot and kill me alot ..then say you run around to much like itsmy fault because I don't wanna stand there and see who can take more bullets

Nice vid yesse

[@bozen6732]

What overlay do you use? Nvidia ?

[@fubarexress6359]

I just charge right on in. Spraying. Amazing how often it works. Seriously. I actually usually win. Even against super geared high level chads.

jesse done forgot the thorax has 85 HP

[@boondogglet132]

Its not a retreat. It is a tactical advance to the rear

[@Jumper53]

I like it

Am I the only one that has died the last 10 games straight to head, something and had absolutely no clue where they were
