Dodging the Desert Eagle

Allright, I played around with this dodge in a pistol only room to perfect it, and it works about 80% of the time. Using this technique I earned mvp with 40 kills (in pistol respawn) with an M11 SEAL handgun. That being said here's the dodge:

Okay, so most fire fights with a sniper aren't that hard I understand but if there's a guy with a DE you really don't want the embarassment from him killing you so you might as well play it safe. First of all you can do this with either a pistol and an automatic so don't be afraid no matter what you have. So you have the guy attacking you and you facing him so first do the usual run back and forth- mix it up a lot but continually get CLOSER to him. A lot of people just shoot with the DE but he might actually get a shot in and hit you at this point, but you can't be afraid to get up close. As soon as you have him up close quickly fake the way he's going and then switch directions immediatly and pull your body behind him. ATTACK right then that's your only chance and you will be right behind him point blank. This takes a little working on, and if I didn't really make it clear on how to do it please tell me. I wouldn't try it against automatics since people normally just spray with them and when you get up close you're basically screwed. Anyways, feedback if this was helpful or not would be nice. I just wanted to share a tip that worked for me.

I know what you're saying. Dolphin dip (prone - crouch), jump, etc. do whatever you need to so you can dodge his bullets and proceed closer to him. Once you're a tad close, start to move around his body by doing some sort of move to keep him from hitting you. Once that's done, start poppin' him in the back.

I do this a lot with normal automatics vs. automatics. Very nice technique, although I hardly ever see it being used.

It was respawn al lol. 40 in a pistol only room is regular mvp haha. 2 kills a minute isnt that difficult. automatics i prefer the quick m16 headshot in about 2 seconds or under if i can manage it.

ya eddie price is a rainbow op. second in command of team 2 while ding chavez is leader.

Yeah he was the old veteran guy from America. But on the DE subject, if you had an automatic against one, I don't think you would want to get closer. I always back up, so I'm far enough that he's not gonna hit me with that inaccurate thing, and if he does, it's pure luck.
