Awesome vid brother!
YO! Thanks for stopping by! Thanks for all the educational content you provide the community.
Wilson, Austin and Ryder collab?
wife, kids, full time job, collage AND you got to level 10? wtf bro
My family always takes priority. I really have to thank my wife for being as supportive as she is. Hopefully you liked the video bro.
@@Ryderdie1 honestly, i knew most of the things that helped you improve, but im just to lazy to apply them myself, the video was well made, i with you nothing but success here on yt
yeah, while dm'ing for 1 hour every day and rewatching demos, sure. May be if you WFH and your wife is a housekeeper, then yeah.
@@Ryderdie1 But still, like are you the greatest to ever do it? like the a man of perfection? whats your secret here man help me out
amazing video. just recently had a friend say “it seems impossible to improve at CS while still having a productive life” can’t wait to show him this
Haha! Jokes aside, It really just comes down to time management.
Thanks for the love man!
To be fair. It sounds like the guy was playing around 3+ hours/day (1000 bots = ~30min, 1 hr DM, 1 hrs matches, 30 min demos, then some additional amount of time on utility/movement/etc) That's quite a commitment.
It is, some ppl can't afford to play and practice plus 1 hour a day
@@panic_attack15 That’s just not the best mentality. I believe if you put 30 minutes a day into anything, you will improve at it, even if it’s slowly. Think the gym.
if u are above 18 u shouldnt have time to play this, ur friend is right and he tries to help u brother
blud got a communications degree
Thanks so much for the shoutout! This is a fantastic guide, I’m going to start linking this to my newer friends. Keep it up! :)
Of course, bro! You’re content is awesome! I’ve been watching you’re stuff for a long time. Thanks for stopping by.
I can't put my finger on what it is about this video that makes it stand out from the rest, but it's in the best way possible. I was fully hooked and deeply interested in what you had to say and I've never felt more motivated to actually take the steps like demo reviews etc to improve. I also work a full time job and you made me realize that being good at cs at the same time is possible :D Thank you so much for making this, seriously
Thanks for the love bro! All I wanted to do was share my story and inspire others to work towards their goal. Hopefully with this video and the ones to come you can get to your goal faster than I did.
This is exactly the video I needed, I watched so many „how to get better videos“ and yours really brought my motivation up, as well as it highlighted the things I haven’t done yet. Like reviewing my faceit demos, putting dm into my daily routine, and make sure I manage my time better for that consistent 1h, even if I don’t have much time. Thanks for the vid and keep it up
Great video! I thought you were a larger CZcamsr because of how well put together and edited your video was, and I was surprised to find out the video only had 250 views after I finished watching. Great job! Keep it up
I can’t begin to tell you how much that means! Thank you for watching, I’ll be sure to keep the content coming.
as someone whos been playing since 2016, being level 10 since 2 years, this is hella impressive. congrats on your nice progress!
Thank you! Can’t say it was easy.
amazing explanation dude! super helpful for new players looking to improve 🥂
Loved this video, thank you for sharing!
Congrats man. I am glad you are still grinding while enjoying this game :)
Man... absolutely crazy looking at your improvement while also maintaining a work/life balance. Truly inspirational video, appreciate you 🙏🙏
Thank you!
ngl this was probably the best video on how to get better in my life
Absolutely amazing job Brother!!!!!
Great stuff. Reminds me of the great rocket league guides in the early days of that game. Always gotta have your pillars, practice, and demos!
Thanks bro! More content to come.
Sick vid brother, you shared tactics and improvements that’s useful in other games too.
was an algorithm recc for me, thought it was gonna be like any other tips video but turned out to be fantastic and a good reminder to enjoy the game thanks!
Thank you! Glad you found the video useful.
Great video bro!
great, concise video!
great video, respect for the work you put into your progress
Thanks man. It’s what I decided that I wanted to dedicate my time to. Hard work pays off, seriously.
Solid video. truly, no BS. 👏
Well put video,thank you
Very well put together video. Getting back into CS since quitting when CS Source dropped. Helpful to be aware of your different points. Appreciate the lack of gambling sponsorship as well.
Of course! Thanks for the love bro.
Great video, thanks!
wonderful video
this was an amazing video honestly i probably cant find one better conveying the message easier thanks for the tips to get better
Anytime!
clean loadout and good advices
Such a great and honest video. Appreciate the hard work brotha ❤
Thanks bro! More content to come.
halfway through the video, already in love. amazing vid man
Seriously, thanks bro. It means a lot
Amazing video man! ❤
Thank you!
Good video brother. Loved you talking about mental health and life outside of the game. I agree and think it has a very large impact on us as players, this is something I’m focusing on the most right now. I’ve found that recording all my games slows me down enough to understand my place in the server, keep a cool head, and not to take it too seriously. EZ sub
Thanks for the love man. I couldn't leave out the mental health aspect of it. The game is really taxing if taken too seriously. Keeping working on your mental health man.
great video man. great point of view and great insights
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
Hey dawg whats up
@@dr1ppyy334 drippy what's good brother
Amazing video!
Amazing video
Very good video, a lot of things to think about, sub earned
Any chance I could get a coaching session from you? Currently level 6 on faceit with 120 games, 1500 in game hours.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I understand you are a NA player and I’m a EU player so the time zones might effect our ability to play together but I would love a love coaching session from a better player :)
Love the vid!
Great video, while I am only average at the game it's interesting to see how such little things can lead to improvement. I started around 2014 maybe 2013 gaining 1.5k hours on a macbook air. At that time I was pretty conpetitive and often played long into the nights gaining level 5 on faceit. But because I neglected a lot of things I took a step back for several years. Around 2021 is when I decided to return and by 2023 I noticed a sizeable improvement. While I dont play Faceit or matchmaking that much anymore, how I play and my general performance in the game has improved. Right now im still getting my life settled so I am still trying to return to a competitve level.
Great video my brother! Also great shout out to the other amazing CS players!
Thanks man! I’m glad you enjoyed the video. And you gotta pay respect where it’s due. Those guys inspired me to make content.
awesome vid, keep it up
I loved the video!
Great video!
What a good guide my friend
Prefiring and crosshair placement are one of the most important aspects of aiming in my opinion, raw aim and spray control are super important but they aren’t going to get you instant frags that can turn the 5v5 into a 5v4 and swing the round heavily in your favour at the start
You’re absolutely right about that and I honestly share the same opinion. Perhaps I should have emphasized that more during the video. Either way, thank you for the feedback!
this vid is great man keep it up
Thanks for the love bro!
Congrats on your cs and life achievements aswell 👏👏
Thank you!
Honestly, this the best guide i've seen on youtube. Def lived up to the title.
Thank you!
great video man. im 33 and played a bit back in 1.6 and source but never played csgo. decided to come give it a try again and have been having fun but its rough. appreciate it!
Thanks for watching bro! Good luck with the newer version of the game. Definitely takes a little re learning.
great video !
Thank you very much, it helped me a lot, greetings from Argentina
Greetings!
massive respect for you sir. maybe if im gonna win something big like the Major, i wont forget to shout out to you on the stage. much love
im currently struggling with the game and maybe this will help me. cant wait to try your guide
dude I've watched COUNTLESS videos like this one and this might be the best! You should make more videos on both micro and macro gameplay!!!
Yo that’s a really good idea. I was thinking about what’s next for my content and I’ll be 100% making a video on micro and macro.
There's a lot of meh videos out there, good job on this one and appreciate the chill vibe
More to come, man. Thanks for watching.
peak youtube video. wonderful job. calm and informative, pleasant to watch. good job!
Thank you!
Awesome of you to emphasize mental health at the end. Very based
at least you explain the basics to try to improve to level 10 in one vid, good video
Best cs video around!
My favorite video on CZcams about Counter Strike! Thank you ❤
Anytime! More content to come.
as someone else who has a career and a very busy life outside of this game, but still have the drive to improve and climb the ladder in this game with the time i do have, your advice resonates with me, I'm already doing most of the stuff outlined in this video, but it's really sick to see someone in a similar situation teaching the game the right way ^^
Hell yeah! I’m glad I could provide some motivation outside of the things I advised. Keep grinding bro. It’s all about time and consistency.
As a fellow level 10, this is going to be my go-to video recommendation when friends want to get into CS or for friends who've been playing for a while and are struggling to improve. Excellent breakdown of the core skills needed, with good actionable steps on how to improve on them without going too deep into the weeds. Hell I'm off to go watch that pop-flash video you mentioned as my solo flash usage is abysmal :3
When I made this video I was afraid that it would only appeal to a lower skill level, but I am thrilled to hear you found it useful. Also, thanks for linking it to your friends! That’ll help the channel quite a bit.
Thanks for watching!
Nice Video!
This is the BEST Improvement video out thier I have no doubt
Thanks bro! I worked really hard on this one. I have another one similar to this coming out in the next 24 hours just based on aiming. Stay tuned!
@@Ryderdie1 Cant Wait!
Very nice vid
Nice guide. I'm stuck between ~5-8k and very inconsistent, I could top frag one game but then have only 5 kills the next. I need to watch my demo's and adjust the radar as I didn't know you could see the entire map!
I’m glad you found the video useful. Maybe you should also consider playing Faceit so you don’t run into any cheaters.
Thanks for watching!
The best way to get out that level is focus on your crosshair placement no one in those elos has decent crossshair placement so you can get easy kills by simply not having your crosshair on the floor
Great video
Banger video, and I also got two Vertigo lineups in the outro? You are goated?
Thanks for the love bro!
the cs player who has touched grass
Nice video, also nice to see from a solo q perspective like myself :)
What can I say? Solo queue makes monsters!
Thanks for the love bro!
awesome video
For gamesense ur own demos are great, but also what helped me a lot was watching youtube vids, demo reviews, mahone_cs type of channels, watching pro games and not just watching the kills but the minimap and see how and when they rotate and that kind of stuff. Ask yourself why and so on.. other than that u just have to play the game a lot and experience it for urself, but always ask urself why or what did i do wrong:)
Great video, good and truthful content. I do agree this is the way to improve // 2,9k elo
Thanks for the love bro!
Great vid
Bro I love you ❤
Good shit
great video
Thank you!
I have only watched half of this video at thid point(will watch full) but it already made me realise why im not very good recently i started trying to learn some smokes and i realised how much better they actually made me not just for my team but also for knowing where players could be but i still dont know how to use glash effectivly haha (i only flash teammates😂)
I will definetly implement a lot of this like more deathmatch more aimtraining
This man is a goat.
Knows his priorities
Thanks bro!
Nice vid ❤
At the end of the video you make a great point. If you don’t feel good you don’t play good. Take care of yourselves guys and gals.
This also applies when your mental goes south after a losing streak. Better to just take a break and come back later.
@@Ryderdie1 Yes you’re totally right. Especially when your teammates start blaming and bullying you for not preforming as well as they had hoped. Acting like this game is live or death, when in reality I just sat down to have some fun after a long day. But now I have to redeem myself because fuck that guy. And then after repeating that 5 more times you feel like shit, you stayed up too late, and you still have to do things irl. Well I’m here to say fuck your teammates, you’re all worth more than any game you play. Redeem yourself by making a good meal and getting some sleep.
@@Fwintix I couldn't have said it better.
You got wife, kids a full time job and while all this you got level 10. Good shit brother, your kids must be proud of you. (if you have sons they are going pro with you as a dad...)
Thanks for the love brother! I can only hope my kids will want to play Counter-Strike!
such a good video
Thank you!
good one mate
Good job
I appreciate the mental health segment for those who needed it
I learned that lesson the hard way, and keeping that balance is very crucial. Stepping away, even for a weekend or something at least, will be much better for your future self.
Very nice video
Thank you!
really good video, definitely stands out from the rest. i definitely think all of these are holding me back + i can't comm cause im a woman and they'll kick me so it's tough not being able to communicate with teammates.
Best content ever!
Learning utility hurts tho, if you don't know you wont go up it's a fact but it's so boring I hate it.
@@BK_CS That's is true in most cases, but you'd be surprised how many players I met in my journey that hardly knew any utility and made it all the way to level 10. Utility is very important, don't get me wrong, but what is far more important is your mechanics like crosshair placement and aiming. Keep at it and whenever you have time go over some new lineups!
@@Ryderdie1 Didn't knew that you could actually make it only with the mechanics, I need to practice harder and better. Thanks for the reply, it really helped me!
cool video I liked it a lot
Awesome video! I am also married and I am level 6. I am trying to reach 10. I honestly felt it's impossible while being married and in grad school. Your progress inspired me a lot! I'll definitely start watching my demos.
Good luck bro! You seem to be in the same spot I was in 7 months ago. Honestly, you don’t even need to play as much as I did. Just dedicate some time everyday to play and you’ll get 10 no problem. Just be sure to be consistent
good job bro
Thanks brotha
As someone who knew all of these steps but I just can't be bothered to do them and I accept being lower skilled, I think the most important part of this video is that these tips can apply to any skill. Just be consistent by doing something, even a bit, every day. Always focus the most on the very basics. Try to analyze your fails. And most importantly, the #1 thing, have fun. If you're patient, you will get better. If you won't be #1, then at least you had fun.
People forget about the fun aspect of CS. It’s a video game that should be enjoyed, if you’re miserable, improving almost becomes impossible. Good point there.
For improving game sence I aldo thinks its really important to pay attention to your teammates and what their doing, especially when you are dead. They gmcould just as well have been on the enemy team and now you get yo see how they play, what routes they take etc
Subbed
good video
Best guide for cs2 👍
Thanks bro. That means a lot. I have a guide coming later this week focused on improving aim. Stay tuned!
Intro went hard af ngl 🥶
Thanks bro! Been experimenting with it recently. But honestly, I really like what I did with this one too.
Ive taken such a long break from cs....i was really into csgo when i was in high school and 2 years after....so from csgo release till about to 2017 i was playing everyday....my friends and 1 brother stopped playing so i did too...just recently i got back into it and its so much fun now...me and my group have 2 maps we like (dust 2 and mirage) that we play seriously on and 2 maps we just fuck around on (vertigo and nuke)...messing around with friends is just fun and even when we play dust2 and mirage we still "shit talk"....guess the 7 year break made me like cs again...besides gives me a reason to not play league as much XD
This is so real, me personally I see a lot of fluctuations on my elo whenever there’s something else on my mind. Either work ou personal stuff that doesn’t allow me to concentrate properly for a week or so, my elo fluctuates from 7 to 10 on faceit and 10k~20k on premiere
Keep at it man, and seriously watch over your mental health.
