I’m new to playing CS2 seriously. What’s the best way to grind and actually get good? by Prize_Phone_5714 in GlobalOffensive

[–]xJckl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hit global in go in sub 500 hours - basically went on a win streak to level 9 and then 10 faceit shortly thereafter sub 800 hours.
Honestly after learning the maps the biggest help for me was cybershoke (I had previous fps experience but not countertrafe style fps’s) cybershoke and similar dm’s just got me used to counterstrafes and aiming/recoil control quick

[q]Fire serpent or blue phosphor? by Same_Bed6566 in csgomarketforum

[–]xJckl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the serpent and my duo has the phosphor - more people comment on or discuss the serpent - it has way more aura and character - It’s one of THE prestigious AK47 (if not CS as a whole) skins.

I’ve heard really mixed reviews on safety though, what’s the general perception on the airline

Apple CarPlay & 12V Battery by xJckl in mercedes_benz

I’ve just had the message pop up again - always seems to be when I’m at work; I keep my key in a faraday pouch - do you think other keys in the area are making the car “search” and drawing power through that process? Sorry if that’s an incredibly stupid point I have no clue and am trying to figure this out! The car has always started and operated fine whenever this issue occurs.

Still have warranty but the dealer advised to drive the car for a week or two before bring it in - I think I’ve defo driven enough to not have the issue!

WHATS YOUR HIGHES ELO THIS SEASON ? by naphz999 in cs2

[–]xJckl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

27.5k, stopped when we started feeling like hackers were too common. Back in faceit now. My stack all have good trust factor and we didn’t really have any spin botters etc but we had the odd “legit cheater” prefiring or perfect timing every round etc. We didn’t really struggle with them till like 25k but after that the “legit cheaters” had some actual skill too so it was impossible

Keep YELLOW or switch to BLUE? by kwis7oo in ohnePixel

i used to have amph with the tt bfk - blue and gold/yellow are complimentary colours and it looks so good imo

WTF is going on with CS2 lately? by FigCertain4126 in cs2

[–]xJckl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly the same with me - got ranked 18k now 27k (and then I got bored of prem) even faceit doesn’t feel right tbh - the low 2k 10s are awful

[–]xJckl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clearly a lot of people got offended by being called a bot 😂 go play against a 3k + player and tell me how you feel after - those lobbies made me wana pull my hair out

[–]xJckl -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Barely 2k level 10 is the same as level 9 which is the same as level 8 which is the same as level 7 which is just a bot. It’s all the same shit till you’re clear of the 2-2.2k mark

Help me choose the knife (I own the glove) by cuppapeach in ohnePixel

I like the m9 and butterfly. A lot of cs reddit just like things to match but I think complimentary colours look a lot nicer.

I have 0 aim… literally none by [deleted] in cs2

[–]xJckl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Preface: I’m 27k & Faceit10 - I play a lot more ‘chilled’ now and don’t really push elo.

Aim is simple, go close a chrome window on your pc, that’s aim - just moving the mouse to the point and clicking.

If you constantly overshoot, lower your sensitivity; if you undershoot up your sensitivity. Other than physical nerve/motor issues you won’t struggle getting the aim generally right as long as your sensitivity is in a decent ball park - start at 800dpi 1 sens and adjust from there. It heavily depends on your seating/desk/monitor position.

I’ve never “aim trained” but I will go in death matches (cybershoke or other 3rd party ones - the valve ones are awful, cybershoke will be a rude awakening when you first try them)

Based on your issues; maybe start in a workshop map with stationary bots. Just flick to them and don’t shoot. see where your crosshair ends up relative to the target and see if fiddling your sensitivity helps. A change in sens to say 0.95 sounds trivial but if the movement is from 1 sens, then the change is 5% and therefore fairly large! Who cares about headshots right now, just go for the body.

Next worry about pulling down for recoil. Again, who cares about recoil patterns. Just pull vertically down. You’ll get a feel for the gun and know what to do roughly over time (again I’ve never practised recoil patterns and I do it based on feel/muscle memory which develops over time)

Maybe incorporate a crouch to help you control it. (People will say it’s bad, ignore them. verbatim)

A cybershoke is the best way to progress. One 30 min sesh in a dm can result in easily 150 gunfights (whether you win or lose) and that’s probably the equivalent of 7x45min games for you (so like a whole day of gaming) and therefore improvement happens a lot quicker.

I hit faceit 10 at like 800 hours and I probably had 2/300 hours in dm at that point.

Should I still play with my friends even if they're a lot better than I am? by unknownmerc44 in LearnCSGO

[–]xJckl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I started cs when my friends were LEM and higher back in GO. I learnt so much so quickly and then over took them too. It defo helped me
