"One mistake, and you learn russian" haha so true
truer words were never spoken
Or in na where you will just get called a slur
So funny and true
Definitely not like it used to be when there was like 100k players and most of them were from Europe. Now im lucky to play with anyone outside NA
Works even if you're russian.
As a psychology major, I greatly appreciate this videos insight.
I was just thinking about entry fragging the other day. I hypothesized that there must be a significant correlation between player skill and ability to entry frag.
Entry fragging defines one's understanding of making an unpredictable enviornment controlled. Afterall, you're clearing a space you have limited information of. The ability to do this as such to the players benefit with significant success is revealing.
So work on your pre-aim, positioning, map knowledge, timing, ect, but most of all in summary, YOUR CONFIDENCE!
Good video.
mfw i open a video expecting it to be a simple tutorial on how to get better at the game but suddenly it becomes an motivational video with genuine advice about not only games but life in general
Bro what an incredible video. I love CS2 because it reflects the dynamics and challenges of life in a fun and controlled environment. Your discussions were a perfect parallel to that feeling. also, LOVE the music!
speaking of confidence, I really encourage you to keep making more videos and content. I have subscribed and can’t wait to see what you can do.
Was watching this and thinking "this fella 100% sounds like he's close to Liverpool" and then the "lets fucking have it" shout comes out and that sealed the deal.
Great video bro, keep doing what you're doing.
as a scouser i knew as soon as he spoke lol
Great video, what's good is that this works for gaining confidence in pretty much everything.
Thank you, I’m happy you enjoyed it mate!
As someone who mildly competes in climbing and has learned all manner of different embarrassing and stressful skills, I can say with certainty that before you feel confident about anything: you fake it. I’ve had so many people impressed by how confident and well thought out I had seemed when in reality I was 100% faking it, and sometimes you fake it so well even you start to believe you really know what you’re doing. Then before you know it, you do genuinely know what you’re doing
I'm not playing CS anymore, but trying to be confident in real life and this video helped me, confidence is universal, self belief, keep posting, it was interesting!
I was nova master in csgo, going on mg1, when i first started playing cs2 i sucked, even though my crosshair placement, util and movement were a lot better than the silvers i was playing against. i would just miss easy shots and get caught out really easily. lately ive been trying to play calmly and remain as confident as possible and i gotta say ive started hitting some wicked shots and my gameplay is starting to resemble my skill in go again
Bro never giveup,you all can do it ❤
When I'm a bit drunk i have slightly worse aim but I'm confident af. And sometimes aim is even better because at that point it's just a muscle memory. I'm not thinking how to aim, i just shoot. Spraying is not working because it's different from GO
It’s interesting you say that, because I know exactly what you mean. I also remember back in the day hearing f0rest say to try not think of aiming, just do it.
Great point though mate, my solution is to *can opening*
@@kneel69 🤣
mind you i`m also playing pool better when i have some wine.
I used to only think I could play high as f*ck or drunk lol. So you got a point. Its in my head
You don't know how much this video helps me. I am a CS veteran who is 30 years of age. When I was younger and I had nothing to do but to grind CS for a whole day and get better I didn't care that much about confidence. I just did stuff and I was decent at the game. But later when life inevitably came with its responsibilities your mind gets busy with other stuff and you gradually decline as a player. I became so bad that I started hating CS with passion, because I was no longer good at it. Thus, I lost my confidence in my own abilities. These days it is almost impossible for me to enter a "flow state" that at this point I don't think I will be decent again at the game. I am full of self-doubt, overthinking situations and I am scared to make mistakes to that point where very idiot outplays me. I often get flamed that I am "useless" even tho I am constantly trying to be like a bonding figure within the team and trying to give ideas to the team for some scenarios. I know a lot of shit like utility and tactics, but trying to implement then with complete strangers makes me useless cuz I am spending half the game explaining things to some random people who only look at the scoreboard and care only about their stats and not the round. CS2 gives me an opportunity to regain my confidence in the game so I can have fun and I have been watching countless videos like this. It seems like the only way to regain confidence is to "stop thinking" or more like "stop overthinking", because I watch some of my friends and they just "do stuff". They don't doubt themselves. They execute it and if it works - it works. It's funny because when I play Deathmatch I enter flow-state and I am a beast, because I do not think - I just let my game sense and aim take over and everything works in terms of fragging, which means it's not my aim, but my mentality.
I really hope you can dig into more mental stuff related to gaming with more videos like this. It helps truly.
Insanely under-viewed video mate, great production value. I'd also like to give a shout out to the Dunning-Kruger effect lol
Thank you mate! I’ll look into that now too
omg you are so underrated i hope this blows up. I'm quite bad at cs and this made me want to learn to be more confident in my skills in general ,not even in cs.its quite a good video to reflect on :)
Thank you for the kind words mate :). I’m happy you like it! and I’m even more happy that it can help you improve
Underrated content. Calm, nice music, good improvements.
and yeah "fake it till you make it". Just think of you being some kind of John Wick sometimes to feel confident. If it does not work, learn from failure, set back, play slow and try again later.
Thank you mate I appreciate the comment :) and the comment on the positioning guide too lad cheers :))
This applies to everything in life. If you want to learn something hard, like coding or math or physics you have to put the effort and be confident in order to succeed.
Great video! Well written, consise and very well edited. Subscribed! Also really like many of your other videos. Gonna go huge if u manage to keep this quality or even improve it over time. All the best!
Thank you man I appreciate that :))
Amazing video! Not enough ppl talk about confidence when talking about improvement in FPS shooters as well as anything skill in life. Well done
"With confidence, comes competence"

great video, great editing mate! personnaly I totally feel this thing of confidence, back in the day in 2015-16 I was playin on local LANs / faceit 10 very seriously (pretty much at what u can call a "high level") after that I stopped CS for years (played sometimes with friends but nothing serious) but I remember at that time, when i was playin with friends in mm that were like LEM/supreme, I was carrying everytime because I wasnt caring that much about the game, just being confident about my abilities, it was pretty much run & gun. 8 years after that im back on CS2 and it feels so frustrating getting destroyed by players I KNOW I could wreck but 50% of my old reflexes are gone, I know I just need to get thoses reflexes back and confidence will follow
I can relate to it mate. It almost adds a layer of doubt in your mind which makes being confident that little bit harder. But you got it bro, you’ve got all that introspection on yourself that you didn’t have previously. You can get your mechanics back to where they were but your mentality is always evolving and improving, so you’ll always have the potential to reach a new level :)
Great video, this is by far the biggest thing that I see hold players that are new to fps back, most people have the potential to be great but lack the confidence to try and be great ❤
the editing is insane, great video.
Amazing !
So simple, yet not so obvious.
Thanks for the video and keep up !
Thank you mate I appreciate the kind comment, and the one you left on the aim guide :)
Great video, you deserve more recognition!
This video made more for my mental health than most of the therapist i've seen. Nice video mate
"fucking have it!" that will be on my grave stone haha good video mate :)
i saw the title and immediately had to give you a like. this is the biggest issue in especially lower tier. the fear of dying. just waiting for grenades to decay and then nothing. you only start to see it at wha feels like global when people actually commit to a push.
concise, fantastic
great vid. fookin have it lad
brilliant message love this
Bro, this video helped me a lot.
I felt I have been underperforming for a few months now and with 2500 I felt constantly like shit getting shredded by people with 200h...
man you just made the perfect video for every multiplayer gamer.
Greatly appreciate your video, man. I guess confidence is what I always been missing. Have a good one.
Glad you like it mate! :))
Great video dude, i needed this.
Really well written video, thanks!
Great video, very knowledable mate.
Very nice Video. Thank you for that!
You're doing the cs gods work good sir.
really well put together video
What really knocks my confidence in cs2 is the fact I was LEM once about 5 years ago and I just never ever got back there. Some games I play like a god and people are blown away and then the next I play like a silver 1.... I just feel like I am the most inconsistent CS player ever and ive been playing since css haha. Tried different mice, desks, headsets, aiming maps etc yet I still suck but knowing what I once was is just a kick in the teeth!
incredible video and editing
You have gained my subscription. Please make a longer vid where you do go down the rabbit hole. Have some 💫confidence💫
Great topic and great video! Confidence is imo the most under appreciated things in fps games. I see some of my friends who are lower elo / rank have sick aim and game sense, but don't want to make a mistake for the team so they play too passive.
Bloody lov'leh video m8!
Not just good counter strike advice but good life advice!
simply put it, good vid 😬👍
great video mate loved it
Great video and very true in my experience.
Subbed for your quality and choice of music. Absolutely love secrets of the forest
Bro the kung fu panda part sent me
One of the only good cs improvement videos.
Thank you mate :)
nice video for people that are not confident enough, keep going!
This video have to send towards people I know because they are lacking this knowledge that I've been going through years.
This was a nice vid.
with the whole learning from failure thing and giving yourself a chance to fail to learn that lesson. i played baseball most of my life, its a game based on failure. if you strike out 7 out of 10 times but get 3 hits, youre one of the best players on the team, regardless of what skill level you are. at the Major League level, those are hall of fame numbers. learning from failure is a challenging thing, but once you figure out how to learn from that failure, and not let it get to you, itll change your life.
Quality content
thank you for this transcendence
nice vid for sure
What I'd like to see is the other end of the spectrum. When does confidence become arrogance. I can think of multiple instances when two different people are confident with very different ideas. And one stems from the lack of skill. I love this video and its general mindset, but what are some good pitfalls to keep in mind when teaching this concept to another person so they don't fall into arrogance
THANK YOU !
It’s funny how, some people, it is the first time someone is hearing this- for a video game. This is just something that applies throughout all of life
i dont really sub to many people on this account but you got my sub. absolutely amazing quality content for your sub count.
That’s my guy thank you! Much appreciated :)
lovely commentary.
another great example of confidence is stewie pushing his own smokes. might be bolder than confident but idk kinda fits
One thing I need to improve in cs2 is to have a PC that doesn't freeze the game every time more than 2 people peek or every time I scope with an awp or scout. Or every time too many nades are thrown. :D
When you get that seamless flow feeling and can just widepeek knowing youll hit, thats when youre oon top and I think its about not thinking of the pressure, but not do that there isnt any, because then its no fun
Confident is one thing, but arrogance is another. Confidence come with experience and know exact reasonable timing to peek angles, seer confident alone won’t win games, it’s need a bit of luck from team composition, communication without being toxic, hold correct angle on ct and make unpredictable move, and confidently taking site as T while clearing angles as fast and as safe as possible.
Example: confident in knowing you have played Deathmatch and practice for hours, meaning you can go into A site mirage as T and peak immediately after CT threw a Molly and until down ramp for first 30 seconds of the map , because your confident in aiming and be able to flick into anyone’s head subconsciously making you appear confident and seem to make good play. But once CT got 1-2 Awp, confident will kill you, when you did not spread that confident to your teammate to challenge that awp and trade kills.
But you can also not practice and still understand common angle and clear A site with knowledge of Under palace Molly, smoke Ct , nade triple and fast peek onto site with jungle support.
I think this is a great video , but it’s will inevitably make stupid players think they are next level. Nothing beat experience, you learn by watching, simply playing and make everything second nature to you.
I above all, have fun.
based. Liked and subbed.
great video man keep it up :)
Thank you man :)
BEST VIDEO for CS in the whole WORLD
Great video
this is great life advice
People really undermine the power of a player's, and especially the entire team's morale in games like CS2.
You should never try to distract your teammates, or bring them down in any way, you should bring them up, compliment their good shots or plays, its a positive feedback loop where everyone wins except for your opponents.
And the best thing is, this all applies to real life too, let the people that you appreciate know that you do, compliment their accomplishments.
Wasn't expecting to feel inspired after this but "let's fukin have it"!
great video. inb4 this channel blows up
Banger
my go to warcry is "watch the killfeed". usually ends with me hearing the most vulgar words known to mankind... in russian.
Great video!
Hahaha I’ll try this war cry in my next game!!
Chrono trigger soundtrack really hittin
Love the video! I think confidence is applicable to a lot of games as well and just in general life situations.
(Also remember me when you’re famous :p)
I completely agree with that, I think it’s amazing that you can gain a skill from something you enjoy, and apply it to something that could push you further in life! I’ll make sure to remember you when I’m ‘famous’ hahaha
Well edited my dude
brooo the kung fu panda story is lit🔥🔥🔥
Subbed
Great to hear about confidence from someone who kinda sounds like Jamie Tartt.
Let's f'in ave it!
!!NEVER BACK DOWN NEVER WHAT!!?
I always go for a knife kill if the situation allows me. Kinda risky but i am confident i can do it. You miss 100% of the shots you dont take
3:34 "if you make one mistake you learn russian" LMAO
Realistically it’s just a game at the end of the day, learning from mistakes and getting better at your own pace is the ultimate key to being confident plus of course setting ping rangers to avoid Russians
Man you get a sub
I can watch your videos even when I have 39.4 C° body temperature. What a legend
Hope you get well soon mate!!
@@kneel69 I'm doing better right now, thank you
@@Scroll_UA good to hear mate :)
This deserve million views
What a video, you could take all these points and use them in many other things as well.
Exactly like in dota and similar games! especially carry roles, things like knowing your hero and their abilities, knowing your timings, knowing how far you can push and what comps & other variables can influence you to carry and end the game.
We've all been there! like where we thought that one call/play would be the optimal path to win the game, but we failed and blamed ourselves so much so instead of learning from that experience, we tried to ignore it and not think about it.
This is not optimal and will not make you improve.
I'm not an active cs player like before, instead I mostly enjoy the content people make rather than play the game myself and from this video I realized how much I'm just not improving because I'm constantly afraid of making mistakes and putting people in bad situations and eventually lose the game.
So instead of making mistakes and learning from them, I personally just straight up didn't either play or made plays because of this, and it requires a good mental stability where you can be fair with yourself, sift the negativity and find the constructive criticism you need in order to improve.
Really enjoyed this video and it made me reflect a lot, well done.
This is a great addition to the discussion mate you’re completely right! Thank you for taking the time to write this :)
This vid was a fucking banger lad

bro i watch this for lesson of life tbh, idc about cs anymore LOL
Love your accent, watched and subbed because of it
Some friends invited me to play Valorant with them recently. They were playing very cautiously and kept asking why I was playing so loose/aggressive and taking so many risks.
I said "Improving > winning."
"Have confidence!"
-a certain doggo
Sometimes what I'll do before I play. I'll hop into a few matches of the gamemode I want to play with difficult bots. Since their bots, I win against them. And when I move to an actual match, I feel I perform alot better than when I don't.
Confidence in anything comes from proficiency. Just put in the hours
Just putting time in isn’t everything, you have to deliberately practice different aspects of gameplay.
@@omgitsnokeyes
me and my buddy have a idiotproof confidence boost, if we notice the team moral going down buddy and i eco with revolver and rush the biggest site while making gorilla noise it works 4/5 times and is so fun to do, as we both get so confident that our combined kills on our revolvers and mag-7/sawedoff is over 9 thousand. (PS. my lama cannon has 2 539 kills at this date)
Confidence aka Ego challenging
In pro cs, people know when they fucked up and what they should have done instead. So usually there is no such toxicity of learning russian among players. They just say, next time be better. This happens due to a mutual understanding that everyone is a human and they make mistakes, and it will not help anyone to put down someone who is not performing well.
In match making, you are lucky if you have 5 players lobby, who share some of that understanding. The confidence it gives to know that if you dont perform well, its fine by your teammates, is not quantifiable. You dont feel the pressure of you dragging them down, one mistake stays one mistake. You learn from it and try not to make it again. If you cant accept your own mistake thats whole another topic. But if you keep shitting on that one player who is not doing so well, you are making him more stubborn cause he doesnt owe you anything, so why will he take shit from you. Plus, he will become more and more careless about the result of the game, so he will stop trying.
So in my oppinion, to be better at the game, you need to be better human first, because you are interacting with 4 other humans. Unless you are simple. Then do whatever the fuck you want.
LET'S FOKIN' 'AV IT LAD
Changed my nickname to confidence 😂
