The only kind of pop flashing you would ever need to look up is non-bounce flashes for your teammates. Probably one of the most advanced things in CS, enough that the chances are you'll never ever need them. To learn how to pop flash yourself, just get used to how far your right click throws, jump right click throws and left + right click throws will go and just practice. There's no real need for a guide because you can do it literally anywhere on the map.

Good spots on the most common maps are the end of B apps and A ramp on mirage, A main and chequers on cache, over A long and into short on d2 (all as CT).



I suck as a T throwing a flash coming out of T Spawn into B main to flash the awper either under heaven or in cheackers.. I miss it all the time, but when I am CT the person hits it every time.

make an offline game and practice it until you can throw it reliably.

on a slightly related note I started adding everyone to vacstatus in every game I play and found out that vacstatus caps at 500 people per list and also adding that many or close to that many makes your list unreadable, it just never loads. are there any alternatives besides that chrome addon because I'm still using firefox.

I've stopped buying the P90 entirely just because I don't want to learn bad habits. I guess buying the other SMGs is similar but at least I get to practice movement with those.

I have thought about trying to use the mp7 less and less, but I am really really good with it, and it lets me buy others on my team ak's / m4's who might not have enough money and are good with those guns. Sure that is a dumb theory, and I have been working on my ak spray, but I have used the mp7 so long (2500+ kills statrack) I don't think I will ever relearn how to not move and shoot..

The ump is the best round 2 smg buy. Cheaper than the other options, better damage/accuracy than the mp9/mac10 if you're not in close quarters. Other than that though, you are correct.

Use to be DMG before the revaluation of ranks, then I was mg1 - mg2 for months.. And now I don't know if it is a mixture of playing with irl friends who are really bad or solo queing but I am back down to GN3.. Am I really just that bad now? (the answer is probably yes)

GN3 and yet somehow the other teams's top 3 fraggers end the match with 80%+ headshot's... Just watched the demo and only 1 seemed to have aimlock. The other 2 didn't really look fishy. All 3 had 700+ hours and multiple games and full inventorys... gently caress me.

I think I already know the answer but maybe I am wrong.

It seems like I can't hit poo poo in front of me close range when the opponent has like a p90 and is running back and forth crazy like when I have the ak/any rifle... Is the answer just don't put myself in a position where they get close? Or is it just my aim/reaction time sucks?

For example if I am a T and plant default on Cache A site, and someone is rushing from truck with a p90 when they cross over I just get my poo poo pushed in and pretty much can't hit them at all.

Dinosower was started by Chad "lolyou", a YouTuber and streamer. He got kinda known for doing videos where he hit lots of crazy shots and bhops, kinda similar to phoon (if you don't know who phoon is then you've missed out on one of cs's classics). Unfortunately, his playstyle and personality attracts a specific subset of people: kids who try to imitate and are either too bad to understand how to hit those kinds of shots, or to bad to hit those kinds of shots so they hack to feel like they can hit those kinds of shots.

I don't think I have ever seen someone with a Dinosower tag who wasn't hacking or just really really bad.

I just wished more people played the reserve maps. I'm pretty sure you could check dust and aztec and leave the house for a medical education and come back and it would still be queued.


e: what I actually want to see is a graph that breaks down the accounts currently playing CS:GO by when CS 1.6 was installed on it. I'm curious how many current players played back then.

I have queued aztec before, and holy poo poo, there are people that only play it and are amazing at that map...

ehhhh if you solo queue those maps, yeah you're gonna run into those 5-stacks that only play aztec or assault or whatver, but if you queue with 3+ people you're going to wreck those kids. I queued with a few friends late night into assault, we ran into guys that were GE, but clearly only on assault, and we steamrolled the gently caress out of them.

True, but I pretty much mainly solo q because my irl friends are trash and I have to queue on a different account to even queue with them

I once met a 2 dig Valve employee on Source. Also Sf, the French pro was was VAC'd, had a 2 dig (bought). It seems weird to think that having a 8 digit was cause for suspicion as a cheater because the account was so new. And now we're well into 9 digit IDs. But I think people care infinitely less about this sort of thing now. People check steam profiles if they're suspicious of somebody now, rather than find their ID in the console.

I sometimes ask in chat if anyone has a 6 dig or lower, and 99.9999999% of the time people say what the gently caress is that.

Hiko just doesn't perform that well and he's not a good IGL, I wouldn't be surprised if he was shuffled out of Liquid and then quit to go hard on streaming. He has a real competitive spirit but his skill just isn't there.

Which would be great because Hiko is a really entertaining streamer.

Hey so are there any third party anti-cheat systems out there aside from EAC?

Let's say an independent league wants to do something to reduce cheating- FACEIT and ESEA's anticheat is obviously proprietary, so is there anything they can realistically do in terms of mitigation, especially in a situation where people generally have their own servers or rent?
