well i was on a pub and the ball got shot upfield, me and drago were on different teams and i tried to boost him back so he wouldt get to the ball , he just started calling me lame and all, he said it was lame to boost without reason. WHY LAME?!?!?!?! boost back u moron if u hate it. well this discussion took us about 15 minutes and then i left the server, if he cant handle me boosting him back without him having the balls , then shut it. I even explained why i boosted him, its not only to boost the dude that has the ball, oO well gimme ur opinion because i dont like to be called lamer for just boosting :/

yeah but as some others agreed with drago :/ if u boost someone to hold him back while the ball isnt in ur area , can u boost an opponent then?

i played with him he was on blue and i was on red it was 4 vs 3 for red so our keeper wasn't there. and he keep scoring from a long distance. i told him to stop laming. then he called his own clan noobs. just ignore him m8. ;)

Throughout the time Ive played defence in DB, I have pretty always boosted opposition attackers around, even when the ball is nowhere to be seen.

Why do I do this? It annoys weak strikers and some start trying to boost me back, appearing to completely forget about keeping an eye on the ball. It puts a little more pressure on the enemy ballcarrier, as they have one less player to safely pass to.

From time to time, I get 'victims' who actually start the verbal attacks, which I find hilarious. It means Im getting to them, so I make more of a point of harrassing that individual!

Part of the art of being a good attacker is to make space for yourself. Conversely, defenders should be preventing this space.

If you are both running towards the ball, and you hit the opponent - they will fly over the ball, leaving you free to pick it up...


Seems a pretty good reason to boost actually.
