I think people still don't appreciate the work and hours pros put into getting that good. More than that, they are capable of auto-analysis and figuring out the enemies they play against and thus, in the process, improving themselves. I might be harsh but I think maybe 10% of the casual players do that... And it is the same with faceit scrims and match making. I myself don't put that many hours into the game anymore and it shows. I still know the basics but I'm still gonna be out-aimed by someone who puts in a lot more effort into being good.
100%. Just to put it into perspective, I have about 16.000 hours in CSGO/CS2 and probably half of it is actual playtime. Rest is rewatching own games, other pro teams, theorycraft on server by myself, nade lineups and dry-runs.
(not sure how much of that is idle time but I’d reckon it’s not more than 500 hours)
Ye executing word.exe is lot of work and hours to disguise it for this many years and hiding it in their own mouse and keyboards. :)
yeah. those pros think all ppl are dumb lmao. its hvh at the b iggest level since flusha and his impossible spray transfers like he was using aim assist@@old8809
"Watch others for inspiration. Watch yourself for improvement" is good advice for life in general. Thank you for these words of wisdom!
Same thing in Rocket League
My man reaches Major playoffs , and keeps on grinding the CS content as well.
HUGE W for the community
I love those recaps, those podcasts are good but sometimes I miss 1 or 2 things that are really important, thanks Styko.
I really enjoy digesting your content, very well-structured and straight forward !
😇❤️
damn i feel NiKo so hard on what he said about having the patience to play a lot of CS. Literally the main issue why i dont play at all at the moment.
Love your stuff. Your content is very comprehensive, informative and absorbing. Keep it up.
Nice production, I dig multiple camera angles you use for emphasis on your points.
Thank you for this awesome video. Since begining of november i have been writing down every death, trying to understand why I die and how I could have played differently. I noticed many things : i'm getting surprised by eco rounds too often, I don't fake plant enough, In some cases i don't reposition after doing a frag so I get prefired, the list goes on. I've learnt so many things and now i'm a better player for sure. It feels like I made more progress in a month than in the past 3 years. For it to work though you have to be honest with yourself, don't say it's green's fault or find excuses when you die otherwise you won't ever make progress.
I love the insight that you have styko. Learn a lot from you!
love what ur doing Styko 🙏
Very nice Video especially the ABC part. They way you explained it was really helpful. Thanks for your videos :D
This is great, when you watch your own games over and over you also get to see where the enemy is and is not and you can build a mental map in your mind rather than pre-fire.
Really really informativ video. I listened to the whole Podcast when it came out. Btw your Room looks sick bro.
Great video Styko!
Love your videos STYKO. You make stellar content!
Glad you enjoy it! Means a lot
Amazing content you're doing there, thanks :)
W content styko, happy new year bro:)
Brilliant video brother. Hope u had a lovely Christmas and new year!
Great video as always 😎
I came across Jared Tendler in my profession (trading), bought his book The Mental Game of Trading where he talks about the A-B-C game analysis and his inchworm concept. Turns out he was coaching Team Liquid during their peak years (Boston, etc). I'm guessing this is where the CS community got it from. Love when my job and hobby intersect :)
Great video dude!
Amazing video!
content been great lately!
perfect content like always
I like the Karrigan interview a lot, had a lot of talk about way back when cs was different in the “old days”
They do that in pretty much every interview. Even in this one they went over old days of NiKo, how he came to the scene and the whole story with his parents owning a gaming cafe he grew up in is just too good to be true haha. Definitely worth a listen! :)
Awesome video man!
Glad you enjoyed it, means a lot 💪🏽
great vid!
Cool content loved to watch it. Want more videos like this ))
and here i thought i am crazy by watching my demo game before each match. thank you i'll keep doing the same
keep it up 👌🏽 watching your own demo can be easily most productive 30 minutes you can spend in the game.
thanks for the video
we gotta frag mane, another banger
Nice video, you just gained a sub and a fan👍
Welcome aboard! 😅❤️
4:30 I'm pretty sure when he's refering to "I didn't play the prefire", he's not talking in general he's being specific to Anubis. There are multiple clips from his stream where he talks about using YPRAC specifically
Great content man. Keep it up !
Just one advice if i might : I like how you are tyring to switch camera angle, but i think if you just remove the sequence when we can see you turning to the other camera just before switching to its angle and also the sequence that shows you turning back to the main camera just before switching to it again.
Thanks for the tip 👌🏽😊
Hey Styko!
Just thought I'd say really cool video on the breakdown of CS aspects which not everyone is going to be familiar with!
Just some constructive criticism for how the video is, @ 4:40 when you have this change, really good use of camera angles by the way, but don't be afraird to be like 'SO...WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?' give a bit more space to the camera angle change, and try to cut it so just as you turn back it comes to the other camera + do the exact same motion on the front camera and stitch them, will make this section feel more smooth! otherwise really good video, been enjoying the channel and content is really good keep it up!
I was improvising on the spot, just found 2nd camera which might help me elevate a production a bit. So I’ll take your feedback with me to the next video 😅💪🏽
When you play, is all ur decisions made by intuition/subconsiousmind or do you actively think before the round starts about what to do and let ur intuition take over in the round?
More vids about more agro riflers like NiKo fl1t elige would be sick
not sure if fl1t appeared on english speaking interview like this, and my russian isn’t as good that I could make a recap that’s good enough. I will look into EliGe though 😊
@@STYKO I was referring more so to covering their recent demos as both are thriving in cs2 although elige has put out a lot of insight in interviews iirc so it could be interesting, really enjoyed the videos that have been coming out
good content as always.
btw, do you have any plans of reviewing your pulsar gears?
afaik I dont see any cs pros using glass mousepad but you.
Definitely will do the review. It’s a bit hard for current pro players to try out Glasspad due to travel difficulties that comes with it. As I am benched now, I don’t travel at all so I think that is one of main reasons so far.
@@STYKO That's good to hear. Since I have once tried same pulsar glass pad as you, I can easily imagine some problems for travel... (eg. difficulties to find a spare if it accidently gets broken, and you just need a big bag to put it in lol)
maybe dumb question but when I play. should I always think before the round starts about what to do and then play with my subconscious mind/autopilot during the round?
Love this video especially coming from a ex pro. I’m gonna try and comeback to cs2. Quit in 2016 played in IM with A+ rating. The flame has been resparked
Ive been gone since 2013 not by choice pc was shit just came back been a hell of a time getting fluidity back but i can notice my improvement since return
@@ihann1baL666 let’s go bro have fun
Thanks!
🥰
styko now with gollum cam
I already aim like him... I miss all of my deagle shots from behind 😅
back then i was always wondering how to aim like these pro players especially Niko and Scream. The master of one tap. I kept on practicing. Recently on Deathmatch FFA game i score 60 plus kills with 97% - 100% headshot for 5 games straight. And now i understand how. It involves so many factors that i need to master which i haven't fully master, but I'm heading towards that.
headshut machinee
Playing with lower eDPI is also a big factor imo, Its much harder to be consistent with a high eDPI. and also 4:3 1280x960 feels the best reso imo for shooting heads.
W content ty
So if I want to improve I should try to analyze every death during the game and think of what I could've done better? I watched another video about improving and there was this example that instead of mindlessly playing solo q on autopilot. You play solo q with a certain objective/goal in mind. So for example, if I need to improve on positioning I consciously think about my positioning during the game until it becomes a good habit/autopilot and do the same with other aspects. Focusing on 1 certain thing at a time.
yes, it also helps to watch your demos from the past week/month that you had questions about
also solo queue is the worst environment to improve in, you need a stack of 5 people who you can trust to play to your skill level
That’s usually great way to learn and improve. Every round of CS is overwhelming and a lot of factors play a role how you should play. If you know what your weakness is, it’s great if you focus mainly on that during the game. But from the replay of same game you can spot lot of other areas where you can improve, so you work on 1 weakness while playing and some more when rewatching 😊
but he said that he regrets not playing the prefire map... and i think those maps are the fastest way to get in the reps for crosshair placement
I made it to semi pro in 1.6 and it was long and hard way, when it comes to cs2 i feel like game is very aimy, you can't get away in some situations if you're not hitting shots.
So whatever they say you just rearrange and say again with your own words lmao great content
4:00 Nuke oh the nightmares
the reason why i died always comes down to "i didnt he would be there", and i cant seem to figure out how to guess where everyone is
Really feeling the age comment approaching 40's and whilst I can focus very high, it is mostly for short amount of times...
Ropz has entered the chat!
niko crossair movement i have never seen someone so consistent as him . the closest i have seen is of DoCc.
Some of you just need to keep playing even after loses. But I don’t mean keep playing w your aim. Use smokes to create one ways, nades and Molly to do as much damage as possible.
But what do I know I’m only level 10 face it
👍🏼
Hey that's a nice Superglide mousepad you got there :)
Not very common for anyone in CS using fast pads.
Niko "How to aim like me, be like me"
When I watch demo, my game crash during the loading :(
the reps thing is crazy. i get accused kf cheating IN CASUAL bc i can preaim angles like this only with like 900 hours. but i played R6 for 4 years straight so i already had the knowledge on how and why you do that. so it kindve transferred to cs
Overview Voltaic aiming community. It contains 90k members with the goal of development the aim
Maybe ropz interview going to be interesting
TIL: Styko does youtube videos
I thought you wer just kinda taking a break form CS
Great video though, I hope to see you play in the future again as well!
Helping other players improve with two UA-cam weekly videos and couple educational streams on weekdays 😊
Comment for the algorithm 😁
turn sens to 0.1, turn on mouse snapping, hold shift, lurk banana
5.18 DOES ANYONEE KNOW HIS CROSSHAIR
We might get better watching NiKo play and explain how to play like that, but the amount of time they get to practice and just play the game is alot compared to us with school and/or work. Getting this good is challenging and requires alot of self confidence if you wanna chase a cs career.
trust me learning in cs goes fast, if you play at least 2 h every day and make ur practice a habit youll improve in no time. just think about what you do and dont be afraid to die(play like chicken, be scared to take duels)
how to win Majors like me - nIKO
Styko im from NA do you do coaching services? Like we go offline server show some good ct set ups and t side tips? Also maybe a vod review or something? Maybe scrim with you and 3 of your friends for $
Why does the thumbnail look like a JCS video?
5:20 DOES ANYONE KNOWS NIKOS CROSSHAIR
💘💘❤🔥❤🔥💓💓
how to aim like xantares? (without aimlock script 😳)
Winners watch winning, loosers watch winners.
Low sens is the Key
itd be great if my replays worked
yeah, it’s incredibly scuffed lately with watching demos and downgrading CS2 to older patches is pain in the 🍑
Bro said Niko hahaha Donk da goat
My bro forgot about XANTARES
hey styko i played against you in wingman and you didnt say hello back!
How to be as good as niko step one be good like niko so u dont have to watch others
This has aged like milk
Hneď mám lepší deň ❤
I think recreational player can be burnout too 😂
Its time to practice like Niko, to go 0/12/0 on Anubis against Na'Vi
I’m not even close to pro or anything but I’ve played CS for 19 years now and I’d say don’t watch s1mple to improve. Watch him to be inspired instead!
I’d also recommend to watch someone explaining plays, positions, executes and play by play things. I find it infinitely more useful than just to watch a pro play.
I don’t say it’s fundamentaly bad for you to watch it, but it’s not much of a use. They are mechanically so much more skilled that it is probably just harmful to try to emulate what they do mechanically.
Tactics, smokes and positions are different story. There you can learn a lot.
he is not the best riffler. Period. But he is very good player
NiKo best rifler? Wtf
hahaha learn from the bot - both Niko and Hunter big bots; paycheck stealers.
popiči kontent
I think Zywoo is the best rifler and maybe not the best awper
cs2 its ropz
his playground 🤓
your content is AAA
Great player but he’s always had a problem with consistency
No thanks, i saw the nuke deagle
His rifle is not the best, that's for sure.
Also, he has a very flat way to aim.
Step 1 play fps since you were a toddler
few low effort cheats to improve your aim. Buy extremely overpriced mouse, buy extremely overpriced monitor, rebuild your PC with the most overpriced components.
why you read a prompter dude ? Jesus ...
really wish you had actual skaters boards hanging up instead of poser supreme shit lmao, no, but for real.
