Please do this for all the maps. Even level 10 players don't know a lot of the default setups and responsibilities. We NEED people to finally learn these things.
I'll have people agree to play spawns on 18k premier for a few rounds and then they just randomly seem to forget it and start doing some random shit. Like yeah no shit you died trying to go fight long because you had the 2nd worst spawn for it.. People just get too stuck on doing only one role/location for one map and completely ignore the importance of spawn locations sometimes
This is exactly what I've been looking for. Feels like every CS video is either about nade lineups that are detached from actual gameplay or how to play with a 5--man team (seriously, what's the number of people playing in a team vs. solo-queuing faceit? Those videos serve nearly no-one).
But what if all my team mates want other position and we just bump around like a pinball machine in spawn and lose all timings? Honestly great vid man these help enforce my ideas for teaching my friends and what we should do.
I really like this format - would love to see similar videos for Inferno, Anubis, and Ancient. A 10-minute breakdown of the basics would be super helpful in general, but especially for getting my pals (who play way less often than I do) up to speed on basic strats and positioning for our weekly gaming sessions.
I currently play at FaceIt lvl 8 and what you summarized here is literally 1 to 1 how we play CT side on Dust2, glad to have this confirmation. very good video and straight to the point! would love to see similar formatted videos about different maps.
as someone that started playing with my friends last year, this type of videos help me to not get too lost during our matches More of these will certainly be welcomed, this is great!
Really enjoyed this video🔥 It was especially good for me because I’m not that great at CS tactics. Would love for this to become a series with the other maps too🙏🏼
CS 2 has brought me back from my 1.6 days. This video is great because it helps me understand the what to do and the why. Even the little stuff like seeing the 2nd long A player stay wide and swing gives me an idea of how to prepare (turn my back), position myself and follow up.
1000% would love to see more guides in this style. Prob a little novice for many of your viewers, but for an idiot like me it's pretty ideal. Cheers, keep having fun!
pls do a series of that type of video. very helpful for guys like me who are not so invested in the game. I knew some things before but learned some a well :) Thank you!
Idealy the third long player isn't needed to swing long after the flashes so that player should be able to move towards mid doors or short to help holding that part of the map. Mid and B player just needs to buy time and get info. Eventually after full long control, the second long player will also be able to help hold short. Because A long is the most difficult to hold against rushes. And mid is the most difficult against slow rounds.
Please do more! Most people struggle more CT side I feel like as they get the spawn positions and economy wrong - this would be great as a series (maybe chuck in some T side in there too).
It’s borderline impossible with randoms, even if you’re incredibly lucky and they DO know their responsibilities based on their spawn, they’ll assume nobody else does and you’ll each just feel out your role that you’ll be playing every round regardless of spawn for the rest of the match
DUDE PLEASE ALL MAPS AND SIDES THESE VIDEOS ARE SO HELPFUL you explain things simply and concisely with a touch of humor, exactly how these things should be presented, thank you... fuck fl0m
B player here ,i like to smoke tunnels then if i hear anything or am expecting eco rush throw my molly right in front of the smoke (site side) it makes a sound like the molly is extinguished but is still burning and if they push out they run into the molly, have shut down so many 5 stack rushes this way.
I often suggest to my team to play spawns on CT side and most of the time people agree but they only seem to remember it for a few rounds and then everyone just starts freestyling some random shit. Like no guys playing the spawns is pretty damn important to play CT side on dust unless your opponents just dont know what to do and take forever to attack on T side.
bro i literally rewinded your stream the other day to see how you play ct side dust, my trio suck at ct side, this video couldn't have come out at a better time lmao
Hey Flom, I’d really like a video if possible over the new vertigo and how to set up for it. My team and I have good setups but due to the new update on it it feels like we’re losing rounds we should be easily winning and we’re just not in the right spots for bomb plant and for rotates from mid. Thanks my man
Its funny how fl0m is basically just explaining the default CT setup for this iconic 20 year old map yet so many people even near 20k premier are completely or slightly clueless about what defaulting means in dust
My past week of comp games I’ve been top fragging with 25+ kills but my team hasn’t been doing shit for me it’s sad I had a guy go 6-22 and two others that were like 9-22 I was 28-16 but I was playing ancient on gn4 match making is tragic
Please do more. There's something to listening to your voice when you speak of the game that makes me listen because I feel like I could miss some important information. Almost like you knew what you were speaking about.
Nice guide. why didnt they just block the middoors from spawn to spawn and not that minecraft block in t spawn. 6:15 fuckin mood about this map being back in the pool
the amount of high elo players who cannot follow basic protocol like this is staggering, so please do this for all the maps, so that i can then send it to them 😂
Im only faceit 4 and honestly i dont think i should be that. Ive lost 4 of 4 lol. Anyways. Ive seen this in action amd i stg my teamates had no idea how to counter. We were 5 and 12. So i locked in and pulled off a 38 and 16 kd at the end. We tied lmao.
let me know which other maps you have useless teammates on and want me to walk through
All of them
Ancient and/or Anubis
Nuuuuke
I am the useless teammate.
all
Please do this for all the maps. Even level 10 players don't know a lot of the default setups and responsibilities. We NEED people to finally learn these things.
Yes please do these for all maps!! You are my hero
I'll have people agree to play spawns on 18k premier for a few rounds and then they just randomly seem to forget it and start doing some random shit. Like yeah no shit you died trying to go fight long because you had the 2nd worst spawn for it..
People just get too stuck on doing only one role/location for one map and completely ignore the importance of spawn locations sometimes
If you're taking this game this serious you need to go touch grass
Level 10 here who knows most defaults but choose to ignore them because thats boring gameplay imo
Doesn’t matter everyone cheats anyways
This is exactly what I've been looking for. Feels like every CS video is either about nade lineups that are detached from actual gameplay or how to play with a 5--man team (seriously, what's the number of people playing in a team vs. solo-queuing faceit? Those videos serve nearly no-one).
i totally agree. it's refreshing to hear fl0m go over the most important objectives for each spawn rather than robotic sequences of nades to throw
But what if all my team mates want other position and we just bump around like a pinball machine in spawn and lose all timings?
Honestly great vid man these help enforce my ideas for teaching my friends and what we should do.
3:17 goated editor, glad you left that in
Peak fl0m tbh. If it's not there, it's not real.

NiKo watching this video and having an identity crisis:

absolutely loved this!! please do both sides on all maps that being said i suck ass at vertigo and ancient so id love to see those.
as someone that started playing with my friends last year, this type of videos help me to not get too lost during our matches
More of these will certainly be welcomed, this is great!
Really enjoyed this video🔥 It was especially good for me because I’m not that great at CS tactics. Would love for this to become a series with the other maps too🙏🏼
Great video, simple ideas that are quick to learn. Please do this for more maps! I always like your informative content
All maps both sides would be very neat

great video! I really liked the examples from your actual games
CT-side Vertigo and Overpass, T-side Inferno and Mirage.
Amazing, straightforward accurate content. Goated
Sick video bro. I need the basics! Would love to have this for other maps
1000% would love to see more guides in this style. Prob a little novice for many of your viewers, but for an idiot like me it's pretty ideal. Cheers, keep having fun!
Definitely need more videos like this! I’ve been trying to pickup this info but just watching a stream isn’t enough detail for me
"You're not NiKo, you'll gonna die"...
Flom, something tells me you made this video immediately after playing a real shit game of Dust2 😂
every map on the active rotation would be great! very insightful video keep it up!
More of this series! wtb for all the de_'s. Also make this a dang actual steam guide so we can link it in our profiles lol.
pls do a series of that type of video. very helpful for guys like me who are not so invested in the game. I knew some things before but learned some a well :) Thank you!

honnestly a good piece of content
Please do more!
Most people struggle more CT side I feel like as they get the spawn positions and economy wrong - this would be great as a series (maybe chuck in some T side in there too).
yeah this was amazing. Im 35 and was only ever playing scoutzknives when everyone was figuring this out.
every single map please. Super helpful
Very good video, I wish all lvl 10s knew this meta.
You should make more setup videos like this!
I rarely see people playing spawns in NA premier, but I had one team with other solos pull it off correctly and it felt like ascending from NA to EU
dont worry people dont do it in EU either lmao. Atleast not consistently and without begging for it
It’s borderline impossible with randoms, even if you’re incredibly lucky and they DO know their responsibilities based on their spawn, they’ll assume nobody else does and you’ll each just feel out your role that you’ll be playing every round regardless of spawn for the rest of the match
very informational and easy to understand video. please do this for the other maps!! :)
Make this a series, with all maps and both sides :D
DUDE PLEASE ALL MAPS AND SIDES THESE VIDEOS ARE SO HELPFUL
you explain things simply and concisely with a touch of humor, exactly how these things should be presented, thank you... fuck fl0m
I hope you will do all the maps eventually, great video!!!
B player here ,i like to smoke tunnels then if i hear anything or am expecting eco rush throw my molly right in front of the smoke (site side) it makes a sound like the molly is extinguished but is still burning and if they push out they run into the molly, have shut down so many 5 stack rushes this way.
its the Play Like Fl0m! Great vid
thank you very much, we need more this stuff. cs basics :)
more please! i need all the maps explained by you fl0m
Loved this type of vids man
I often suggest to my team to play spawns on CT side and most of the time people agree but they only seem to remember it for a few rounds and then everyone just starts freestyling some random shit. Like no guys playing the spawns is pretty damn important to play CT side on dust unless your opponents just dont know what to do and take forever to attack on T side.
This is fantastic!
bro i literally rewinded your stream the other day to see how you play ct side dust, my trio suck at ct side, this video couldn't have come out at a better time lmao
Thanks fl0m love these info videos
I want fl0m to teach me things and talk me to sleep.
Great video! More videos like this please 🙏🏽
this is what i need as a solo queue!
Hey Flom, I’d really like a video if possible over the new vertigo and how to set up for it. My team and I have good setups but due to the new update on it it feels like we’re losing rounds we should be easily winning and we’re just not in the right spots for bomb plant and for rotates from mid. Thanks my man
isnt the most important thing when playing a game is having fun? This feels like guidelines to have fun^2
LETS GOOOO FL0MMMMMM!!! Great explanation ty for saving NA pugs! 🙌
great vid for someone like me with 0 dust2 knowledge!
i cant wait to paste this url into a bind and have a quick spam to let the team know how to play this map
Really well made video, ty
So finally, i didn't play Dust2 that wrong.
I suck at Anubis, Ancient, Vertigo, Inferno, Train, Cache, Overpass, and that's it
more of these please, basic stuff that you can use to get better, regardless of your teammates
Its funny how fl0m is basically just explaining the default CT setup for this iconic 20 year old map yet so many people even near 20k premier are completely or slightly clueless about what defaulting means in dust
Yes, please do all the maps, T and CT.
bro i am that noob that you always talk about. with bad financial management. but im learning, thanks!
This is theory that I think a lot of players can use.
Bro u need to make more videos like this, thats how i play dust 2 but other maps i dont know shiii about, plz🙏😅
What role do you think is best for solo que?
Can you do a video on the best escape route for the VIP on oilrig
i need this for more maps ❤ just all of them
More of this video please 🙏🏻
NA revival comes from the basics. (And from me begging them to buy one singular flash)
I want this for every map both sides haha but fr this is awesome. And yes i would love more
My past week of comp games I’ve been top fragging with 25+ kills but my team hasn’t been doing shit for me it’s sad I had a guy go 6-22 and two others that were like 9-22 I was 28-16 but I was playing ancient on gn4 match making is tragic
Amazing video short and sweet. I'm also sending this to everyone I play cs with because they're all BOTS! 😂
Can we do this for the maps that barely get picked in faceit low levels? Essentially, not Dust2, Mirage and Inferno.
"b-ing a mollly"
Please keep making these I am lvl 10 but I am hardstuck because I am noob except for aiming pretty much
all maps please! great video!
Please do more. There's something to listening to your voice when you speak of the game that makes me listen because I feel like I could miss some important information. Almost like you knew what you were speaking about.
I would love a CT and T version of this for all maps
awesome video - more!
Amazing Video Brother 🙏💯🔥👑
jokes on you... I am actually Niko
Do more of this. Thanks
Nice guide.
why didnt they just block the middoors from spawn to spawn and not that minecraft block in t spawn.
6:15 fuckin mood about this map being back in the pool
I WANT TO SEE EVERY MAP IN THIS FORMAT!
why did they get rid of cache? It was literally my favourite map man I miss it so much. More then my ex...
Valeu!
Please make one for T side Dust2
well more videos of this!
Really cool videos
i love this ty
Great content
KEEP MAKING THESE VIDEOS.
i do enjoy this video!
DO MORE OF THESE PLEASE 👽
the amount of high elo players who cannot follow basic protocol like this is staggering, so please do this for all the maps, so that i can then send it to them 😂

Way better than S1mple's course
Do for all maps please
Molly + deep Nade @B
Im only faceit 4 and honestly i dont think i should be that. Ive lost 4 of 4 lol. Anyways. Ive seen this in action amd i stg my teamates had no idea how to counter. We were 5 and 12. So i locked in and pulled off a 38 and 16 kd at the end. We tied lmao.
I like these super basic videos because there are quite a few gaps in my knowledge, and some of it is totally out of date.
