Players generally perform better when they feel good about what they’re doing. So, when they land that perfect headshot, let them know that somebody noticed. If they’re a newer player, offer advice and tips instead of petulant whinging. It should go without saying, but they’ll be a bit more receptive, and a lot more likely to help when it’s nee
