Facts

  • 'pede heads track the player while bobbing in simple harmonic motion.
  • As the pede head is coming out of the trough of the wave and raising its head you are streaming and backing up; as its head reaches the crest of the wave you start walking forward while still streaming.
  • DO NOT raise your crosshair to follow the head movement: aim at the "belly". (see diagram above)
  • As you reach "belly" you're aiming at, pivot smoothly around that point.
  • If you started walking forward too early in step 1. you may have to walk forward again at the end or else you end up backing into the pede tail
  • It's always better to kill a giga than to greed for L4. finish what you start!
  • You have to be collecting by 275 and again by 290.

when you're not scraping, you want to kite the remaining pedes around the arena in a circle. if you cross the arena, they get tied up in knots. Try to avoid going under a giga for any reason except staying alive.
