Thread: advice

Whats up everyone. Just wanting some friendly advice about my gameplay, if anyone has any.

I am constantly trying to up my (team) gameplay. Overall, I think for the most part I am a really good player. But I know there are always things I can do to improve (other than upgrade my machine). I know when I die I constantly spec players I consider to be good in order to adapt my gameplay with different strategies. Does anyone ever spec me when they die? I hope so, for whatever reason. I have been playing CS now for about 6 years, but I know I can always improve.

Any advice or observations or recommendations you might have for me in regards to my teamplay/gameplay would be appreciated because I would like to set myself forth and be thought of as a leader on TTP CSS. Thanks.

Oh, and I would love to get advice even from those I regularly pwn. heh

Next time i see you on ill spec ya' when I die.

Im not the best player around but I can throw in my 2¢

Here's my advice for you...


- Find your gun. No matter what game it is.
- Use it ALOT. This will get you better using it and will make you known for using it. Such as Langrad w/ mp5navy, Chronic w/ scout, vafa w/ ak, etc.
- Go to Deathmatch servers and use that gun the whole time!
- While you are at the Deathmatch server, DEMO YOURSELF! People take this too lightly when this is a major key of improving your skill.
- After Demoing yourself, STUDY YOUR MISTAKES.
- Continue going to Deathmatch server and PRACTICE FIXING YOUR MISTAKES.
- NO SPRAYING!!!
- Take your time and don't rush it. The person that is more patient and takes their time, will win 90% of the time.
- Be SMART. Find your style of play whether it may be rushing, sniping, mid-range combat, close-up combact, etc.
- Study how your gun sprays IF you are in a desperate time and need to spray. I recommend muscle memory maps. (EX: mm_delight_64) Muscle memory maps help you shoot before your opponent does. Find your sensitivity!!!
- PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!!! Its corny, but "Practice makes perfect." Whether it is facing 10 bots on easy with no weapons and just practicing your snapshots. I'm not gunna lie, I do that alot. It helps you get a shot off faster and hit your opponent before they hit you .
- This one doesn't help your aim, but turn your volume up and LISTEN FOR FOOTSTEPS! It is VERY vital and you can get a call off fast and help your team win. And a couple kills for your personal pleasure if you take your time and 2-3 burst a couple people in the face! Wink
- Last thing. When you die, spectate skilled players such as Vafa, Toke, railed, Hub, Scrum (Death Adder), Oni-Scout, Pimp Trizkit, Master_Magus, etc. Any skilled player. Study them and watch their techniques. I know, it sounds cheap but that can actually help you ALOT. Dont mimic them, but get a few good spots and techniques.


If you follow this guide, you will improve your skills ALOT and will become more confident in rushing, sniping, and taking control of your team by making calls. And by that, you get respect. So what do you have to lose? 30 minutes of time? And what do you gain? Skill, confidence, and respect. Good trade if you ask me!

Hope this helps you or anybody else that needs help.

Simple things like this, make a HUGE difference.
