- Cooperative modes reward splitting roles: one player handles offence while the other covers, rather than both rushing.
- Learn the controls alone for two minutes before you invite a friend. Fumbling the basics is the fastest way to lose a match you should win.
- Short, frequent matches build skill faster than marathon sessions.
