*The majority of games in Standoff are decided in the first few minutes because of the available weapons. That is because Standoff is a small map, and that some consider it overloaded with power weapons. A good strategy is to get the shotgun, then the Active Camo, then to make your way to the center to claim the Spartan Laser, killing anyone in your path. Shotgun camping in the bases is key for any gametype. Beware, a Mauler spawns in each base, too. | *The majority of games in Standoff are decided in the first few minutes because of the available weapons.

*A risky tactic is to drive the Warthog and open fire at the players attempting to grab the Laser. Watch out for players wielding the Rockets or Power Drain. | *A risky tactic is to drive the Warthog and open fire at the players attempting to grab the Laser.

*Warthogs are key to this game. There is one at each base, and if you get in it from the start, you have to be wary of the Spartan Laser and Rocket Launchers. However, having a Warthog is a great advantage for your team, even though it is risky. | *Warthogs are key to this game.

*Picking up the [[Active Camouflage]] at the start of the level and having your teammates hold off the enemy, and keeping them on their half of the map can make it an easy grab for the [[Spartan Laser]] in the center, considering there is a popular tactic to pick up the Warthog at the start of the game and charge for the Spartan Laser spawn point. Also, using this in conjunction with Rockets makes this an effective way to remove attacking Warthogs and, possibly, the other invisible player trying to secure the Laser. | *Picking up the [[Active Camouflage]] at the start of the level and having your teammates hold off the enemy, and keeping them on their half of the map can make it an easy grab for the [[Spartan Laser]] in the center, considering there is a popular tactic to pick up the Warthog at the start of the game and charge for the Spartan Laser spawn point.
