The best way to win is to Keep moving

The game is won and lost by obtaining some kind of advantage. Paintball strategies that incorporate lot of movement usually have the advantage. In paintball the advantage is in movement (usually). When all else fails, shoot and move to gain an better position. Keep you opponent from viewing your next move by shooting at their position a few times, then move quickly to your next position. A better advantage is where you move to a position that gives you a better angle on your opponent without him or here seeing you get there.
Staying in one position increases your chance of getting eliminated. It does not increase your chances getting more eliminations.
If you don't get an angle on your opponent, move to a better position. And if you don't eliminate your opponent after a few attempts, move.
If you get to a better position, don't give your position away by immediately standing up and shooting like crazy. This will give your position away. Take a peak to see what your battle field looks like. There may be a few targets, or there may be an even better position (or bunker) in your grasp.

How to be the silent killer

When moving through the woods, try to stay on uncluttered ground as much as possible. Where you step will have an impact on how loud you are as you move. This is crucial to success in woodsball paintball. Stay low, slow, and use precise and patient movements as you make your way through the terrain. Objects like leaves might not be the quietest thing to land on. Dirt or grass will be a better choice. Keep your body as low as needed to quickly get to your destination.

Basic Paintball Tactics
Step 1
Start learning basic paintball tactics by first becoming familiar with the field you are going to play on. Beginners must learn the easiest and quickest way to get to the nearest bunkers on the field. Walk the field and get familiar with the terrain. This helps beginners to see where the open lanes are that the opposing team players will use.
Step 2
Learn the importance of concealment as one of the basic paintball tactics. It is best to wear camouflage clothing or a dark color when you play on a wooded field. Bright colors make you stand out when you are advancing.
Step 3
Know where your other teammates are at all times. This is a basic paintball playing tactic that beginners sometimes forget. Pay special attention to the ones playing to your right and left sides. Beginners normally look straight ahead when they are advancing the field. When they see movement to the right or to the left in a fire fight, it's hard to keep up with your team's players. This is when beginners often make the mistake of shooting their own teammates.
Step 4
Pay attention to how many paintballs you have left in your pods and in your hopper. Beginners often shoot an overabundance of paintballs, running out before the game is over. If this happens, look on the ground of the field. You can normally find paintballs that have not busted. Pick these up and put them in your hopper so you can continue playing.
