CS:GO Help Please...

Bob Jim · December 23, 2015

Oh, and I forgot to mention, deathmatch is your best friend, both for practice and warmup for competitive matches.

More than any other, I have found that my performance in CS:GO was especially effected by my mood. Try to remain calm and if you're doing terribly in deathmatch before a competitive match, perhaps use it for practice only and consider postponing your game.

Finding someone else capable may help, too. But make sure it's someone who has a positive outlook on the game's competitive side. If someone in your game has been especially fun to play with, consider adding them on steam.

Thanks so much for all the help, much appreciated. I just played two comp games back to back, first on mirage then dust II. I aced the last round of the first game (we were up 15-7) with a sawed-off... Second game we went up to 15-2, then they came back to 15-13, before my teammate clutched 1v4 with an autsniper

Nice one!

Now enjoy the 21-hour cooldown on competitive MM!

One thing, the sawed off isn't great. Try the Nova

People say that, but if I like to do one thing, in all games, is Buck the trend and favour the underdog. Good old British trait, so I've been told. Anyways, sawed off one hits to the chest/stomach at very close ranges, unlike the nova, where you need to land a hs.

Nova can land 1 hit kills to the chest and stomach, too. And (theoretically) from 33% further away. It fires 1 more pellet than the sawed off and has 1 more shell in each mag.

Each to their own, though. Since the Sawed off will do more damage if only one pellet hits.
