JDM had a couple of rounds where he didn't perform too well, and when they couldn't get him an AWP, he wasn't doing much. SK having more flexibility with their awpers seemed like it gave them a significant edge over Liquid.

That wasn't even NiKo's first deagle ace on CT-side Cache. He also had one against Titan a few months ago. Dude's insane, but we all know that.

How exciting. I had my first ace. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgJATyBHleY Starting to do better with this game. My initial rank at 10 wins was gn1 and quickly dropped to se. Now at 23 wins I'm at gn2. Oh boy! How do you turn off autodirector in the replay stuff btw?

8th top frag win in a row. Still Silver IV. Something's screwy EDIT: There was one game we lost but I had more kills (50+) than the rest of my team combined so I wouldn't think that would mess things up too bad. I don't care about the actual rank, I just want better teammates ASAP. The Joe Man fucked around with this message at 09:16 on Jul 16, 2016 |

It's only about wins and losses. So win more.

ded posted:How exciting. I had my first ace. Ha, a Half-Way-Around-The-World Ace. Not too shabby. As for the auto-director, sometime demos get buggy with me and it won't let me do anything, so the only way I've found to fix it is by restarting the game entirely. Other than that, hitting space bar typically does the trick.

FWIW I ranked up to MG2 again (after losing my rank due to inactivity) on the first win after a loss (9-0-6 on MG1 total, 2-1-0 from GN4 to MG1). It's more than just W-L but the less you think about it, the better. Enjoy your easy games while they last.

If you get better at fragging while in silvers and novas people will rage quit on the other team and you'll rank up faster

Has anyone used Steam Inventory Helper for Chrome (community page here) to offload a bunch of their poo poo? Just looking to make sure that it's a legit add-on for Chrome. I know there's been some shady ones out there - but this one seems good for what I'm trying to do (dump 200+ skins I dont loving need).

Finally ranked up to Silver 4. I wish my work schedule was a little more flexible so I could play more often, but whatever. It's not work's fault I refuse to soloqueue and have to coordinate with friend schedules. Rolling with the A1S for so long really upped my AK game when I finally went back to it. My poor SG is gathering dust. I'm starting to work on my flashes, I feel like those are the most important grenade (although somebody better tell me if I am wrong). Does anyone have any tips for learning new maps besides just playing them over and over again? I feel like my understanding of Cobble, Dust2, Mirage, and Cache are all okay (angles/rotates/retakes wise, I still am learning nades), but I need to start picking up the rest of the maps in the comp pool.

There are very few things which tilt me more than getting a bot which doesn't even listen. Yea sure go ahead and buy that Negev, and then feed it to the other team, that's just super.

It's not work's fault I refuse to soloqueue and have to coordinate with friend schedules. Newke is awful and the meta is unclear. Train is a map you need a organized team to watch each other's back, thanks to the ability of enemies to flank really quickly. I wouldn't worry about either too much. Inferno is a good one to learn, because it's going to come back, dammit.

On the t-side of every map there are like 2-3 basic smokes you should know that make your life a million times more convenient. Like if you want to attack the b site on dust 2 everyone knows how to smoke mid to b from xbox in mid. Then you can split the site and if they aren't playing 2-1-2, that is with 2 guys in the site and one somewhere in mid that should be a very doable take. Its just that a lot of people seem to only know the basic dust 2 smokes in quite a lot of ranks. So my suggestion for getting better other than click heads better and learn to trade would be learn the basic smokes. It just cuts down on so much hassle. If you don't know what 2-3 smokes you absolutely should know for a map just ask the thread. That's mostly fot t-side though. Most ct smokes are throw at the entrance.

Why is it hard to figure out that someone sits backsite B every round, and therefore you should throw a smoke to block their vision? Also, got told yesterday that trying to pick people off and get trades is stupid, and we have to rush a site every round instead.

There needs to be another impending VAC wave. Prime Matchmaking is still a joke. I just played several games over the past few days that had blatant wallhackers in them. I guess I'll just stick with ESEA until that happens.

Goofballs posted:I find fridays and saturdays have by far the most shady people playing, also the most retarded This has always been my experience. It's rare that I sit down for a few games on a Fri / Sat / Sun without running into someone with walls. Seems like there are a lot more angry dudes, too. Weeknights are a good bet for a random team of chill stoners and drunks. Famethrowa posted:People also seem to have a hard time throwing on the fly offensive smokes. Why is it hard to figure out that someone sits backsite B every round, and therefore you should throw a smoke to block their vision? I'm really wary of throwing unfamiliar smokes because it usually results in an AWP round sailing through my forehead when I peek, or when the smoke lands nowhere useful.
