MY WEBSITE / BLOG:
🌎 I’m trying to create my very own little space on the internet. I want to use it as a little hub where I can share whatever I find interesting from the gaming / tech world and create some written blog-style content as well. It’s a new project so it’ll take some time.

Quickly becoming one of my favorite creators on CS. Nobody’s talking about what you are

[@sebastiant.3588]

Styko with the top tier, big brain CS content we all need

[@AndreiLucaa]

This video is a testament of how intelligent and humble you are, Styko! Incredible video! Well done 👏

[@CrosshairKings]

As a NA player I'm very happy to see this content being supported as I feel like my region could benefit from this EXTREMELY.

[@stongef]

I used to be pro in CS:Source in NA (wasn't so hard, I know). I wasn't a consistent player, having some bad games here and there. Instead of raging internally and trying to do agro peeks by myself, I would just accept that it was a bad game, and focus on being a good support player to help other teammates to thrive.

[@andregomes2949]

Good video, STYKO. Another example of what you talk about in terms of helping younger players is what Fallen did in Brazil. He single handedly created Games Academy, an online teaching platform that helped the development of countless brazilian players, which later turned into Gamers Club, the biggest third party platform for playing csgo in SA. In addition to that, he's been creating online content teaching people how to play cs for more than 10 years now. That why we call him Professor.

[@neurathal0n534]

This was a fantastic video. Having good subject matter is the hardest thing to do on UA-cam, you manage not only to have good content in your videos but also to speak on it well

[@Kr99gc]

Great lessons as always!

[@dmitry7967]

Thanks for the videos Styko ..... again gonna rewatch 10times

[@c4ptainapollo351]

[@-gnicE-]

Great video. I grew up with Lans. They are so much more fun then playing alone online. I feel like the energy of your teammates can be used to focus in so much better. Its intoxicating.

[@Ushofaya]

thanks for tips brother !

[@STYKO]

Always welcome :D

[@nickW0RLD]

As a leader my main focus is to be open with my teammates and let's get all together improving everyday, nice fucking video STYKO!

Hey Styko nice to watch your recent videos! Where did you get that bhop shirt? I want one to

[@hazo610]

great vid!

[@fanden]

Great video! Very interesting and important to see this, since IGL´s often get shit on.
For next video you could maybe look at donk or Team Spirit in general. They improved so much in the last couple of months.

[@STYKO]

I already did two demo reviews of donk on my livestream lately. Both of these were edited and uploaded on this channel. One review was in CSGO, but last one was in CS2 from 2 weeks ago. Check my channel and you’ll find it 😊

[@fanden]

@@STYKO awesome, thanks!

[@viacheslavkiselev3125]

hi, STYKO, fantastic video! Could you maybe make a video about how to play against fast pistols and smg's in CS2? I noticed that eco's are a lot more successful. It is hard to hit a running pistol player with an AK. Spraying is not as effective as in csgo. I make more multi-kills with Five-seven than with any other expensive weapon.

[@sn1pe34]

Jame the MVP mastermind and yet never gets mentioned

[@birdy617]

that BHOP shirt fire lol

i love those nuke posters on your wall where can i get them?

[@STYKO]

they are great! you can buy them here - wheezyt.gg

[@kroooassant9899]

I never wished to lead but my whole CSGO experience was on solo match up so I built a very strong leadership, now I just cannot play without making calls it's just stronger than me most of the time when people listen we start to do better, so playing only with random teams is rewarding on the long term, the first thing it forced me to do was to know exactly where my team mates are looking at on the radar even if they don't talk I can guess pretty well what they are doing and what are their attention, well, only until you get teamed up with a bunch of russians where it becomes so chaotic it's very confusing. I don't want to train like pros do anyway, I am not a pro i just like my daily cs.

[@kno0o]

Hey man! Where can one find such a "bhop" shirt? :D

[@STYKO]

Check @boxrstore on Twitter!

[@iiMaGinENation]

Makes you wonder how siuhyy, or however you spell his name, is able to lead so well at such a young age. All great leaders need experience and wisdom, what has he gone through to get that so early in life

[@uhorecka174]

neskutocne cennim tvoj kontekt, skoda ze nemam o 10 rokov menej, s tymito videami by som to mozno teraz zvladol na nejkaku uroven :D sranda bokom, robis fakt impactful videa, aj ked sa to neodraza na cislach az tak pretoze ho nerobis pre casual hraca. Ale presne toto na scene chybalo a kedysi tu boli nejake naznaky podobnych videi od freakazoid, alebo steel ked este boli aktivni hraci, avsak samozrejme to bolo v plienkach
ty si posunul tento typ contentu na uplne iny level a pokial viem tak si jediny z pro hracov(edit ešte môj boy carrygun) ktory dava realne rady a nie len videa typu this is my aim routine... Elige chvilku vyzeral ze zacne robit podobny kontent tiez ale potoim sa na to vysral a nechal ti podium :D
mas neskutocny respekt odo mna za to, ako k tej hre pristupujes a co vsetko robis pre to aby si sa zlepsoval, zanalyzujes vsetko a najdes veci kde si mozes pridat par percent k vykonu...
zasluzis si major viac ako velmi vela "lepsich" hracov od teba kvoli tomuto pristupu
V time bez pritomnosti ega by si neskutocne ziaril a vedel ho posunut dopredu.. snad sa tam cs hraci raz dostanu :D Drzim palce a verim ze coskoro ta uvidime v poriadnom banger line upe

[@STYKO]

Wow, ďakujem :)

[@CBUCK1994]

cs is atleast 90% teamwork

[@DonnerKebab21]

7:26 Hey cmon man thats all my confidence gone...

[@nathan-lf7yc]

6:40 this kinda sucks. Lan tournaments just dont happen anymore unless its for the super elite teams. I wish i was born back when it was possible to play lan games :/

[@mtsyo8165]

Does apex still drill his nose & other places in live matches?

Have you like ever played matchmaking?

[@30tabletteralvedon34]

How the best in game leaders*

[@didrik901]

You skate? Where the clips at

[@Slevwy]

Why man showing a clip of a Coach when the vid is abt igls 😂

[@STYKO]

Because the role of IGL and Coach is extremely connected to the point where you can almost treat them as a package deal and they influence each other. Heavily.

[@ultrasaiyan4283]

So you need to be friends to do a job?

[@DeejayRach0]

To do the job in the best way possible yes

[@234Musician]

they have wallhack so ez .

[@chaitanyamhadeshwar2261]

I don't think karrigan is great IGL.
