![]() To be a pro, which again I have no experience personally :p, you need to have the aim/general game sense/smokes and flashes/etc, but you also need to know how to be a teammate and effectively play with your team. Just keep playing matchmaking and you will start to learn how to react when certain smokes and flashes are thrown, learn to hold your spot until bomb is spotted, get better at clutching rounds, etc etc. With most of the other things I listed, though, you learn through experience. It make the smoke basically useless, and can get you and your teammates killed. One of the most frustrating things in CS is when you think that you or a teammate smoked off an angle only to find out that it was misthrown so that there is a 5 foot gap next to it. Go into a private server and practice lining them up and throwing them. There are plenty of smoke and flash tutorials on youtube so just search for which map you want to learn and work on them 1 by 1. It requires knowing how to throw proper smokes and flashes, knowing how to rush and clear a site effectively, how to hold a site effectively, when to rotate, when to get aggressive, when to make a play, etc etc. To be a good player, it requires more than just good aim. (Also, try it from different distances as you start to feel more comfortable.) Eventually, you will start to preemptively adjust for recoil as opposed to adjusting after you see your bullets start to go off target. Try and get the spray pattern on the wall to be as small as possible. Type sv_cheats 1, sv_infinite_ammo 2, and mp_roundtime_defuse 60 into console and just work on your recoil. (go for 'tight' peeks/try to avoid wide peeking) Another thing you can do is go into a private server with no bots (i have done this myself) and practice shooting at the wall with the AK and M4 for a while (like 30 mins+). Run around the map getting into gunfights but be conscious of how youre peeking around corners. Practice strafe shooting at enemies down long A for a while. If you're on Dust2, hold catwalk for a bit like you would if you were actually playing a match. I try not to join a DM with 12+ people in it as the spawns can get crazy and instead of learning you are just getting shot in the back / getting into 1v3 gunfights. So to get really good aim the best thing to do is obviously to deathmatch or aim map. You will have to learn all of these things if you want to reach a pro level (or anywhere near it). Good game sense separates a good player from a good aimer, and knowing how to play within a real team separates a pro from a good player. Now, there's a difference between a good aimer, a good player, and a pro. I have 650 hours right now and some people in ESEA and matchmaking have commented on how "low" my hours played are. Again, this is not a rule but it is a pattern I have noticed. With that out of the way, most of the good players you see at the higher ranks in matchmaking (on their real accounts) have over 1,000 hours played. Just because one person joined a premier team after playing for 700 hours doesn't mean you will. I was never pro (or close to it), I never attended any lans, etc but I think I can help answer this question for you.įirst, the obvious thing is that no one will learn the game at the same rate. In 1.6, I started playing with friends in CAL (a league back then) and we made it to the Main division. ![]() So I started playing CS 1.5 back in 2002. ![]()
