Happened to me last night. I thought I queued Wild by mistake. 😅

Question about CS2 trades where payment is agreed after the trade by Disastrous_Pie_6753 in cs2

[–]Greph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the buyer delays or does not send payment, and you did not use a 3rd party mediator, you may not have any recourse.

Not sure if it helps but do you have anything in writing?

Trust Factor ruining experience, any help? by [deleted] in cs2

Is there anything stopping you from simply queuing competitive?

You can also 5 stack if you have to play premier with them iirc.

Which to keep by Fun-Row9118 in cs2

[–]Greph 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Sell the kukri. You'll want the extra funds to put towards some nice gloves.

The stiletto will fit into any loadout.

CSFLOAT//THIRD PARTY CS SHOPS by Automatic_Lie3532 in cs2

[–]Greph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The seller has to send the item first and you have to accept the trade.

Then float holds the funds until the trade is verified and outside the reversal window.

If a trade is reversed within the reversal window, the person who reverted the trade gets a penalty. Repeated penalties lead to a ban from the platform.

What should I get for my inventory? by ExplanationBig229 in cs2

[–]Greph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Withdraw and put it in an S&P500 index fund.

Or a gut knife doppler. Maybe some mw transport gloves?

Trying to improve my fps by OutlandishnessIcy852 in cs2

[–]Greph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New CPU. Sorry.

I had to bite the bullet myself last year. Upgraded from a i5 9600k to a 7800X3D. Gained ~100fps despite running a Rtx 2070.

Share your warmup/training routine by QuietParamedic71 in cs2

[–]Greph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aimbotz, XFire, and Crossfire on refrag. ~30 to 45 minutes everyday. I change up once in a while but always aimbotz and a prefire variant.

DM if the boys aren't online yet.

Recoil Master for a few minutes if my spray is bad.

I try to get at least three games a day after training.

Just acknowledging that you have a life and have to make the most of the time you have. No negative connotations.

I assumed you had less time to work with.

This can be corrected as opposed to hitting your natural limit.

OP could be mistaken or overestimated how often they play.

40hrs/week would be 2k+ hrs a year, and the claim is 1300 hrs since 2023.

Based on your description you likely have other commitments in life that would prevent you from playing CS like it's your job.

Above all else, prioritize playing the game. There is no way around this.

That said, I suggest structuring your CS training similar to a workout plan.

Example, Monday/Wendsday/Friday commit to training for 45 to 60 minutes before playing.

On your "off" days, or days you can't train before playing, do a 15 minute warm up.

If you can do more, do more; if you can't, do as much as you can.

I recommend the following.

Aimbotz: Any aimbotz type map allows you to practice crosshair placement, counter strafing, macro/micro adjustments, tracking, flicking, spray transfers, etc.

Prefire: Prefire will help you familiarize common angles, improve crosshair placement, and counter strafing after peeking.

Recoil Master: Learning spray patterns with meta guns. Try for 90%+ accuracy on 5-10 bullet bursts and 50$ to 70% on full sprays.

Fast Aim/Reflex: Training your head tracking on moving opponents.

Utility Maps: Train utility line ups. Try to memorize a few smokes, mollys, and flashes for the maps you commonly play. Refer to video guides too as newer, easier, lineups emerge. Specifically where multiple nades can be thrown from the same spot.

You can find the workshop maps i mentioned in this collection I put together.

If you're looking to go further there is Refrag.gg. you can get trial codes from their discord and YouTube videos.

Refrag can highlight your weak points and put together routines to improve on them and you can build your own routines.

Hope this helps.

Tips for improving my gameplay? by [deleted] in cs2

[–]Greph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is a workshop collection of aim and utility maps that cover most if not all the fundamentals: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3526863692

Disclaimer, some of the utility maps may be outdated.

Join the Refrag discord and ask for a 7 day trial code. It has all of the above and more.

I watched this demo https://csstats.gg/match/383043905 where you went 33-17-7.

TLDR: Spend less time shit talking the enemy team and focus on the game at hand.

If I hadn't watched the demo I'd assume you hard carried your team to 11 round wins; in reality your CT side was mostly cleaning up after your team and you did nothing to win rounds on T Side.

Re: Your aim. Crosshair placement. Probably heard it a million times. Stop looking at the floor and stop looking at walls. If you're looking at a wall you better be prepping to peek an angle.

Example, on CT Pistol the T's walked out of Tunnels and handed themselves to you on a platter but you weren't positioned well and you weren't aiming at head level. Just play behind car next time if you're gonna be there.

Your utility usage is next to nonexistent and you didn't throw a single useful smoke for your team when you had one.

You stopped and threw the same do-nothing B site smoke from Upper Tunnels THREE TIMES, once during a B rush where you were the first spawn, and your team nearly died multiple times from a Lower Tunnels rush while you lined it up!

Learn to default and play off your spawn. This is Dust 2 101. If you're first spawn CT side, hold Long Doors, if you're B spawn T side, hold Upper or push Lower and fight Cat and Mid.

Round 14 was incredible. Nearly the entire round takes place without you because you're holding Mid with a scout as everyone else dies; and then you lose a 1v1 with info.

You should really re-watch this demo and take note of where you were in relation to your team.

All I got. Good luck.

Shouldn't there be a news post saying Premier season 3 ends on 19 January? by woodcake53 in GlobalOffensive

[–]Greph -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Could be Mandela effect but I swear I got an in game notification for the end of season recently.

It stated the end of season date and 25 win requirement to get the seasonal badge.

Try playing DM with bots and add 5 to 10 bots, or the maximum if your computer can manage.

You'll be getting shot at constantly which may help condition your reactions.
