IMO a lot of bad vibes happen in solo queue when someone outright comes out and says something like OMG loving noob orange why didn't you do <insert arbitrary action>. Most of the time if you're abnormally polite when pointing out something, as long as your point holds water, people will be receptive. Some caveats to this: This advice does not apply if the person is under 16, is Russian, or is indeed a loving noob.

I didn't start watching cs to get better at the game, I just watched it randomly one day and really liked watching it. about a week ago after watching 4-5 months of streams I bought the game and ya. I hear you though. If you're worried about whether you are going to be bad or not, let me ease some of your concerns a bit: You are going to be loving horrendous.

I would be ranked global elite but literally every game this week and last week and also the week before has had a cheater in it, so I'm still just DMG.

fennesz posted:I think I like CS because it's the only shooter I've ever played online that I haven't dominated 99% of the matches I end up in. It's frustrating queuing into smurfs and sketchy dudes who wallbang you constantly but I guess that's part of the draw. TBH I miss arena shooters and the lack of popularity in quake live makes me worry that the genre is finished for good.

sterster posted:Curious if anyone has speculation on what happens when you get kicked by a team after the last round. I was playing with a lovely 3 man group after 1 person abandoned on the 1st round. After 2nd fragging the whole game and dealing with their constant comments after they were dead. It still counts. I know this because I've up and down ranked after matches that I've being kicked from finish.

Try playing some AWP DM, awping in general involves a lot of twitching but you should be doing everything in your power to reduce the incidence of a twitch kill, or at least reducing the distance your crosshair has to move. Practice picking good positions where you have easy cover, judging your expected reaction time and placing your crosshair at an appropriate distance off the corner so that when your enemy runs out, they'll run into your crosshair you just need to click. Nobody should be shoulder peeking you in Nova so you probably don't need to worry about that. You'll still twitch occasionally, but it shouldn't be significant.

Faceit premium in general I've found to be better than valve solo queue. That doesn't mean it is totally without griefers though, although faceit admins I've heard are pretty heavy handed when it comes to people like that.

UnfurledSails posted:Oh poo poo sorry. It's Kem. You also seem to never buy a sidearm for your awp, this is a crucial mistake. Your sidearm exists so you have an effective weapon if you need to engage someone close range, the USP and glock are complete poo poo against armored opponents, and the AWP scoped or unscoped close range is far too unreliable. Round 11 you were holding doors from long and it seemed like the enemy was camping long-tspawn. There was absolutely no need for you to push there, especially not with an AWP, and especially not with a with a garbage sidearm. Be a bit more patient and wait for them to push you. Other things I noticed: - CT-side 2nd round you buy kevlar but no sidearm (i.e 5-7 or p250) and end up having 900 bucks left over. Then the round after you buy a P250 but no armor. Instead, buy that p250 on the 2nd round with your kevlar (and helmet). - T-side pistol round you don't buy anything. Don't do this. I get it that you want an AWP fast, but your team needs the pistol round more than you need an AWP. Get kevlar at the very least - I saw literally 0 nade usage from you. This is going to severely hold you back as you move up the ranks, basic things like smoking cross and flashing over long doors never happened because 1) your team is dumb 2) you didn't buy nades to do it yourself. Please buy and use nades. - You always play the same positions as CT, always awping long doors from corner or top mid from the humvee. If I saw someone doing this all the time, that would be perfect for me since I could just run out and prefire those positions, and you can be sure I would get those headshots 100% of the time given how common those positions are. Obviously this doesn't happen like ever at nova, but be aware the higher ranks will not be so forgiving to such obvious plays. Also as one final piece of advice, your AWP didn't seem bad for a nova, however, and I hate to poo poo on your parade, but you are going to need to learn a gun that is not the Ay Vee Pee. That seemed to be literally the only gun you used all game and you would sacrifice complete buys to get one (glass cannon style). A couple of times I even saw two AWPs on T-side, which is just dumb. At this point I think you should probably stop using the AWP and focus on the other aspects of the game, such as nade usage (since you used basically none), rifling (although I have no idea how good you are with the rifle), and better positioning. For some reason silvers and novas seem to buy awps all the time because they think that that gun has the best chance of carrying them up the ranks, and that is simply not true. You need more than just AWP skills to move up. Anyway that's my take, other people might spot other things. qhat fucked around with this message at 01:40 on Feb 13, 2016 |

UnfurledSails posted:Thanks for the feedback. As far as the upper ranks go, good snipers tend to be good riflers too. The problem with limiting yourself to an AWP is you are putting yourself at a huge disadvantage when an AWP is completely not an appropriate choice of weapon. Retaking a bombsite, for example, almost mandates a rifle and you'll see decent players almost always dropping their awp for an ak on the floor before they retake. That's because it's extremely easy to get trade killed when entering the site if you only have an AWP, and its also just way more of a dinosaur to use when what you need is speed. In short, even if you are good with the AWP, if you're not also good with rifles then you will be at a enormous disadvantage when rifling is absolutely required.

So far, they're moving it from Germany to the U.S. Rust Belt, making it less CT-sided, the CTs will be Seal Team 6 and Ts will be Phoenix, and this image was taken outside of Mini. Makes sense. There's no better place for Toxic than NA.
