Hey guys, I am starting this topic, which many have talked about before, to give a place where players can look to get tips from the community on how to improve in PvP. The video I have linked is a gameplay I have of me getting my personal best for both score and kills in a single game. (10k plus score and 60 kills) In the video I talk about some tips that most all of us know and then also just the mentality of some one who wants to improve.
Some tips outside of the video-
If you have multiple classes practice with them in the Crucible, the more you know about other classes the better equipped you are to counter them in the Crucible. Personally I have a Hunter and two Warlocks, I have played both extensively in the Crucible and have used both of their unique classes a lot. This way I get a good feel for what advantages and disadvantages both classes have and I can look to capitalize on that in the Crucible.
Don't hate on other play styles, instead learn from them. I know I really don't like going against fusion rifles and at first this was so annoying for me but I kept the mentality of trying to learn from people who use them instead of just getting frustrated when people do, now I feel ready when I see a team full of fusion rifle users.
Learn to use your supers. By this I mean find the most advantages time to use it. What can happen is that you know you want to use a super to fight for heavy ammo but heavy ammo does not come up for another three minutes, so yes fighting for heavy with your super is almost always a good idea but you may be able to use your super and get another one in that three minute time span. For me some times I will go into Crucible knowing I want to work on my super use so instead of holding on to it for the "perfect" time I will give myself around a 10 second window of when I get my super to when I use it, this way I use the most amount of supers as possible and I get a lot of practice with them.
I hope you guys can add to my tips and that we can all keep improving as a community to make the strongest, most competitive Destiny possible.
