đĄ Pro Tips from Indian Champions
Learn from India's top Champion S Arena players:
đ "TheDesiWarrior" - National Champion 2023
Tip: "Always carry a chakra and a trishul. The chakra is great for finishing off low-health enemies from a distance, while the trishul deals massive damage in close combat. Also, learn to use the environment - in Indian maps, there are often hidden paths and shortcuts that can give you the edge."
đ "SareeSniper" - Women's Division Champion
Tip: "Communication is key, especially in squad matches. We use Hindi code words for different strategies. For example, 'bhelpuri' means we're setting up an ambush, while 'ladoo' means we need healing. Also, don't underestimate the power of traditional outfits - they can sometimes camouflage you better than military gear!"
đ "AutoRickshawAce" - Vehicle Master
Tip: "Mastering vehicle control is crucial in Indian maps. The auto-rickshaw might seem slow, but with the right drifting technique, you can outmaneuver most opponents. Also, the bullock cart is great for setting up surprise attacks - it's slow but can carry your whole squad silently."
