Many players new to Quake, or those transitioning from Duke Nukem 3D, will find dealing with Scrags straightforward. However, players coming from DOOM might encounter learning difficulties. A common issue for DOOM players is forgetting to utilize the look up and down keys, often bound to [A] and [Z], which can lead to being killed by Scrags.

Tips
