Twitch had something like 850k CS:GO viewers today. Game is a ton more fun to watch than anything else out there right now....and that's coming from a former LoL player.

Wow... Liquid choked so hard on mirage against luminosity. All due to one crazy play where one ct with awp got all Ts dropping into the bombsite from apartments.

Certain sports i hate yet watch for the amount of excitement and skill involved is breathtaking to watch.

They didnt choke sadly. Luminosity have been in these situations against the top teams in the world on a big stage lan in best of threes continually over the past six months. Liquids lack of experience and playbook cost them the game.

Demetrious Johnson needs to try to get on this!

Saw him streaming Street Fighter(?) the other day. When the new UFC game was released he was playing with Lirik.

A good amount of pro athletes stream on Twitch. Its quite shocking.

Oh, and my best FaceIT pug to date happened earlier: https://www.faceit.com/en/csgo/room/1697cc99-bd2a-4354-9ad9-e47933850492

IN !!!!

So I played CS 15 years ago in LAN cafés.

Then I have been playing Source occasionally for the last few years.

Just switched to GO. It's so different. But I'm starting to get the feel for it.

I read this whole awesome thread.

Hey I have a question-is there any value in practising in a headshot only deathmatch ? I mean I can already see my aim improving. But maybe I'm getting bad habits like aiming too long?

I'd stay away from it for now since youre a returning player. Dropping into such a server once or twice a week a few months down the road as part of your warmup routine.

i sugest you do a dm game everytime you do a cs go session, followed by mm. then if you have the time download the smoke maps and learn them.

 

[KBE6EKCTAH_CCP]

Yeah, so far Deathmatch is like 95 % of my playing.

It's really non-stop practice ; I love it. Except when the server is full and you get killed like 3 times in a row because you get respawned in a cross fire or something lol.

I haven't even played competitive so far (except with my CS buddy where he creates a game and invites me - I guess that's competitive?).

Anyways, my aim is improving tons. I am usually KDR >1 now in all my recent games, and I am slowly converging towards the top of the screen.

Hey retarded question but are these funny chicken that jump around everywhere good practice targets ? They are surprisingly difficult to shoot.

 

[KaNesDeath]

DM is only one form of a training/warmup routine. I made a Steam Guide for i was tired of continually typing this out on CSGO reddit page: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=311993091

In terms of rotations, when to use grenade utility and timing pushes. These are things one will learn over time by playing 5v5.

Added roughly 10-15 minutes of Pistol only DM to my daily warmup routine.
