Flanking

Description
Flanking only applies to 3v3 game modes, mainly in Gem Grab. When you Flank, you stay pushed back on the side of the map, preferably in maps with Bushes against the side like Hard Rock Mine and Stone Fort. Flanking gives up control of the centre, but allows you to regain it, as the opposing tea

m will not notice you from the sides and only focus on keeping the one brawler they can see pushed back. Then, you ambush / surprise the opponent from the sides, asserting control. If the enemy brawler notices you flank, they will be forced to give up control and hunt you down from the sides.

Tips

 * 1) Don't flank with brawlers with low DPS, as you won't be able to ambush them successfully. They will have enough time to react and then you completely lose control.
 * 2) Flanking in siege, also known as Backdooring, is an effective strategy, but rather than going for brawlers, you move up toward the enemy IKE, then ambush the IKE to do serious damage to it, or even better, destroy the IKE. Brawlers who are good for this are 8-Bit, Pam, Frank, Bull and El Primo.
 * 3) Don't Flank in Brawl Ball or Bounty, where maintaining control is super important and cannot be given up at any stage.
