happy with one deag, OH and another one, OH AND A THIRD, happy..., he can get it all and dupreeh, dupreeh is like sweating bullets HAPPY IS GONNA GET THE QUAD KILL! AND THE ACE WHAT IS THIISSSSS
Even though I agree, I also think it must be said that the other 4 players must be able to retain the CTs for a good time by getting kills or surviving, like XMS and Scream did, if not, once sixer and these two are dead, a relative early full rotation can be called and its a 3v2 with almost no positional advantage. I believe many people say its "baiting" because if the Ts faking can't survive for a while, it just ends on a 1 (or 2) v 4 (or 3) and it doesn't make much sense. So even though happy does a great job at calling the rotate, I believe the Ts that sell the fake with kills are the mvps.
Their strategy is kinda like sacrificing the team to get a confirmed bomb plant at B site with 2 people. Not sure what's the strategic advantage of this compared to trading kills and locking down A site with 2 more people(rbk supporting the team and happy flanking before his team dies etc).
Best video I've seen in my life. I know this is way too long to have on live stream during events, but this is miles better than all the rehashed shit we hear on analysis desks in tournaments.
Happy will be really happy about this. His Bodyy might even feel a few shox and then he might ScreaM as loud as Steel smashing against Steel. But I really think that he is a s1mple man and it won't Mixwell with his Swag but then again it could be an Autimatic response just like when you have an AdreNaline Rush, or then again he could just feel n0thing at all. I will also be Happy if you like my comment. . . . . . . . . . Edited: OMG! I have succeeded in one of my goals for life. I can die in peace now. Thank you to all my fans. I would've never made it this far without you guys. Jk . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Rowling is a good writer.
I love these videos bro, keep making stuff like this. I love how you and DaZeD are great at analysing the game and it's really cool to watch and understand
i like your videos a lot, man. i actually learn stuff we can use. unlike those thousands of nades and smokes i looked up and forgot immediately after. you cover some topics nobody else talks about which i still haven´t figured out after 2000 hours of csgo. good shit, keep it coming please :) ps: after all, well played at majors m8
I find the example of the Happy-rounds an extremely good example of why he isn't doing a good job. To break it down: to lurk is to try and get behind enemy lines when the rest of the team is taking another part of the map, taking advantage of confusion. While in this case Happy is just waiting for people to leave the B-site to then take the B-site. He doesn't try to kill rotating players, nor does he try to help his team on A. He did nothing what the definition of a lurker prescribes. "But they won these rounds" you might say. Well that is indeed try and an indisputable fact. But it is also undeniable to say that this had nothing to do with lurking. At most these were elaborate "fakes". The first round shown is a full gun round, and the reason they succeed is not because Happy gets an epic flank which catches players of guard and blows a hole in their defense. It's simply because the other 4 manage to kill everyone at A, basically. He literally played 0 part in that round. This is something Sean points out though, and tries to counter this argument by showing us the next round. But the same exact scenario develops. His team goes A, he stays B-long. Not trying to get into to action, to aid his teammates. Once again it is at most an elaborate fake. But this time it was against a forcebuy. And it doesn't even go as smoothly as the previous gun round, they lose more players! So in my humble opinion a strong case can be made that if things happen a little different, the A push gets shut down way earlier! Even now it was already a 3v2 but it could be worse! And this is my argument for why Happy's form of "lurking" is not useful enough. He was again just waiting for the B-site to empty, not trying to help his team proactively. In a round such as this (an anti-forcebuy), it is realistic that if he went with his team they have a greater chance of success. Overall I don't think these rounds are arguments to be made in Happy's advantage, quite the contrary though.
One thing I like, of many, about you SeanG is you arent promoting "CODE: SgArEs" on every video or platform you are on. One of the most intelligent well carried individuals in the CS:GO community, keep up the good work bro.
TheGreatEagle it does work in mm tho, you just have to have some sort of authority. I have made calls on the fly using this. usually only warning but it let's my team know to not reveal themselves and if it's only me and bomb we can usually win the round on 2 v 4s and such because I cleared site.
08:37 "The worst part about playing someone like Happy is, 50% of the time he's with the team. It's kinda been blown out of proportion by different analysts and casters and people on the forums. It's kinda a shame because Happy is such a good player at his role...."
For those that don't know, happy is selfish and bases the team around him despite having 4 other players that are all better than him to base the team around.
Really informative videos, thanks man. Can you do some videos about how to play in MM? Like playing without dependable teammates or in situations when your teammates cannot help you.
The only thing with what Happy does on Cobble, is if they rush A like that, and the B players rotate, they can now boost in drop and throw everything off, but I guess that's a huge risk that you have to do blindly on info from past demos.
Sean I love the videos you're doing, however I've never really understood what makes the difference between a good site anchor, and a not so good site anchor, maybe you could pick a couple of players that are good anchors (HenryG sadokist semmler etc always talk of G2 bodyy being a good anchor) perhaps you could talk about some of the traits and fundamentals needed to be solid site anchor? Love the recent content keep it coming, I'm loving it
i dont even play CS that much anymore aside from a few ranked games here or there with some friends, im definitely straying away from the competitive aspect of the game. But when i see a Sgares vid you bet your ass im watching it
Hey Sean. I hear you talk alot about spacing especially in your pathways for entryfraggers-video. Could you do a video on this topic? how to do it, what to think about.??
I play this role so as well and i also dictate my team sometimes they have to wait for me to get the lurk pick or to take a site on my own the way i play it is always meeting my team on the site they are rushing but I always go for the first two picks and have my team finish out the round also lurker are the one of the most important players on the team making the plays to help the team win the round
I'm a lurker but I'm also the igl and and I have to entry frag because no one else on are team can so I don't get to lurk often which can make it more surprising I suppose
Your title makes it seem like you want to learn people how to lurk without baiting, like happy does. It kinda looks like you mean that happy is baiting :p
he does bait though lol, these clips show off the few times he did it right, most of the time on cobble happy will just sit above drop and wait for his whole team to die or until there's only one left then he'll START flanking... this inst an accurate representation of happy's average playstyle tbh
Very informative video my man
Made me remember some essential points that you would tend to forget while playing
Keep these vids coming! :)
fuck off
+1, Nice video sean, keep em coming
+gp34 i can tell you have no friends, stay home all day playing video games, ugly, evil and socially awkward. be humble.
no need to project your insecurities on me
We should all just say something negative on a positive comment
You should make a video on how well MarkE stream snipes rank S
xD ahahhaha
Multiple monitors?
6 monitor set up
MarKE god manga de petasos
Not well... he sucks at it.
need to show this to my friends.
they are useless
XD
jokes on you I have no friends.
:(
U win!
happy with one deag, OH and another one, OH AND A THIRD, happy..., he can get it all and dupreeh, dupreeh is like sweating bullets HAPPY IS GONNA GET THE QUAD KILL! AND THE ACE WHAT IS THIISSSSS
Fricking Semmler xD
Jason Zhou Now recite it in the half speed version xD
Istg I read it in his voice, visualised it and felt it deep in my heart. Best commentary I've EVER heard in cs
I'm an IGL for an open team and I sent this to my lurker as soon as I saw it. Thanks for the video. Keep it up!
Did u win?
What i have learned from this video: Immortals cannot handle a damn lurker.
It's not that easy. "Yeah, just watch the flank, NERRRRD."
brazilians don't like it from behind
Well then I suppose you didn't listen very well :3
Even though I agree, I also think it must be said that the other 4 players must be able to retain the CTs for a good time by getting kills or surviving, like XMS and Scream did, if not, once sixer and these two are dead, a relative early full rotation can be called and its a 3v2 with almost no positional advantage.

So even though happy does a great job at calling the rotate, I believe the Ts that sell the fake with kills are the mvps.
Also, great vid Sean, loving the channel
CUTIRIARTE yeah, that s why NV playing top teams are shit... coz teams like VP can hold sites really well
Their strategy is kinda like sacrificing the team to get a confirmed bomb plant at B site with 2 people. Not sure what's the strategic advantage of this compared to trading kills and locking down A site with 2 more people(rbk supporting the team and happy flanking before his team dies etc).
rushbcykablyat well if you execute it right I think you have better positioning so, if it is well executed I do think it is better.
But wouldn't rbk and happy have the exact same better positioning at A if they locked down A instead?
Best video I've seen in my life. I know this is way too long to have on live stream during events, but this is miles better than all the rehashed shit we hear on analysis desks in tournaments.
muk as coa analysts dont know anything about cs lol
beshj give an example pls
Pls make a video about Malmo! Imo a great tournament and worthy of discussion
Would be awesome to see some breakdowns of plays made during Malmo, make it happen Sean !
especially simple trying to knife forest on b site nuke lol
Happy will be really happy about this. His Bodyy might even feel a few shox and then he might ScreaM as loud as Steel smashing against Steel. But I really think that he is a s1mple man and it won't Mixwell with his Swag but then again it could be an Autimatic response just like when you have an AdreNaline Rush, or then again he could just feel n0thing at all. I will also be Happy if you like my comment.

Shroud
Even got AdreN in there, impressive
Alfarizi Dhiyaul Islam Go ahead mate. Just don't forget about me, the original comment creator, when you become famous and rich from this comment.
You want the most skilled guy with good weapon to lurk, makes the whole idea even scarier and greater chances for clutch
Happy should watch this
Matej Petojevic o

ps: after all, well played at majors m8
Thanks - you have just explained my preferred style of play. Now I just need to learn to perfect it.
Thanks for your breakdown dude! Awesome video analysis. (also love the clips of steel lol)
This kill...right here...could have won the major LMAOOOOOOO The way he said it is fucking hilarious
Thank you so much sean!Really enjoying your videos!Keep it up mate!
Thanks for the video! It really helps me realize this is so important
tfw i play like this in mm but then theres a third guy still sitting in chicken coup for no reason who shoots me in the back. :^)
Love this type of video with more individual focus!! Rather than strats.

i cant stop looking at that steelseries headphone... ITS BEAUTIFULLL
One thing I like, of many, about you SeanG is you arent promoting "CODE: SgArEs" on every video or platform you are on. One of the most intelligent well carried individuals in the CS:GO community, keep up the good work bro.
more videos like these plz, loved it ,thats really informative.
I have been lurking for kills forever, but now I realize how much more there is to lurking then just sneaking behind and ez frags.
Uri Dolgin this works in a premade team with roles not mm solo
TheGreatEagle it does work in mm tho, you just have to have some sort of authority. I have made calls on the fly using this. usually only warning but it let's my team know to not reveal themselves and if it's only me and bomb we can usually win the round on 2 v 4s and such because I cleared site.
but if ur unlucky it can all fall apart since it's a ?v4 and the CT have the advantage
damn these new videos are GOLD for people looking to up their cs go game!
Love you sean. Very exciting how you're getting misfits together and crushing teams. Already top 2 in N.A
08:37
"The worst part about playing someone like Happy is, 50% of the time he's with the team. It's kinda been blown out of proportion by different analysts and casters and people on the forums. It's kinda a shame because Happy is such a good player at his role...."
Have really been enjoying these videos! thanks man!
Awesome video, Sean. Very informative!
your content is great sean thanks for these
20k subs! congrats :D
Great video! Please continue with these kind of videos :D
Is that Steel at 13:37? LMAO THAT TIMING.
are you 12?
Sean added that in in editing intentionally
Have you heard of editing programs?
He meant the time itself I think, how it spells out "Leet"
Let the idiots be idiots.
Great videos as always keep em coming please.
For those that don't know, happy is selfish and bases the team around him despite having 4 other players that are all better than him to base the team around.
another great strat vid thanks sean
Really informative videos, thanks man. Can you do some videos about how to play in MM? Like playing without dependable teammates or in situations when your teammates cannot help you.
The only thing with what Happy does on Cobble, is if they rush A like that, and the B players rotate, they can now boost in drop and throw everything off, but I guess that's a huge risk that you have to do blindly on info from past demos.
Nice video man, im here for reddit, hail reddit!
Great work sean!
Lmao that steel "what is baiting" voice over though
I am no pro player, but i love playing the lurking role in my game plays. Won some awsome rounds with over rotations and getting a free bombsite.
8:08 "Makes it very VERY difficult for the CTs to retake "
*JUST RUN TROUGH SMOKE*
great vid sean ! :)
Sean I love the videos you're doing, however I've never really understood what makes the difference between a good site anchor, and a not so good site anchor, maybe you could pick a couple of players that are good anchors (HenryG sadokist semmler etc always talk of G2 bodyy being a good anchor) perhaps you could talk about some of the traits and fundamentals needed to be solid site anchor?
Love the recent content keep it coming, I'm loving it
Thanks you for making videos like this :D
i dont even play CS that much anymore aside from a few ranked games here or there with some friends, im definitely straying away from the competitive aspect of the game. But when i see a Sgares vid you bet your ass im watching it
Very good video man!
you are making awesome videos GOOD JOB!!
When I play comp casual with like 30 players, you get baited every round
Well if you're playing casual have people on both bomb sites no matter what but this is for competitive play.
Nice video man!
Sean, for the love of god you are to good to be wasted on Misfits
Why videos so helpful like this aren't in the front page of reddit
I think a better title name would be "How to lurk without baiting (like Happy)" Btw nice video
WHAT headsets r those Sean?
steelseries.com/gaming-headsets/arctis
Arctis 5 steel series
lol. "(he doesn't)" guys need to stop xd
love this content sean, really bringing your channel to life again :)
so a person like get right lurks differently?
Hey Sean. I hear you talk alot about spacing especially in your pathways for entryfraggers-video. Could you do a video on this topic? how to do it, what to think about.??
I play this role so as well and i also dictate my team sometimes they have to wait for me to get the lurk pick or to take a site on my own the way i play it is always meeting my team on the site they are rushing but I always go for the first two picks and have my team finish out the round also lurker are the one of the most important players on the team making the plays to help the team win the round
run in with a pistol like a rambo, realise enemies have weapons, run back into awper's embrace = best bait
sean is a smart guy
I was waiting for atleast SOMEONE to make this video, happy got a lot of shit for "baiting"
could you do NBK- on squeaky door recently, been really well at that position
I'm a lurker but I'm also the igl and and I have to entry frag because no one else on are team can so I don't get to lurk often which can make it more surprising I suppose
Entry Lurker is the new think i play like that and it works, on ct side this is so strong enemy cant read you.
Your channel is gonna hit 100k before you know it easy 300k subs 2-3 months time
His playstyle might not be outdated but his calling style surely is
basically, if you're lurking and a site is clear... the enemy has already flanked, and immediately switch sites.
What is the headset you are using? looks really cool
Steelseries Arctis 5
please make a how to igl series
bro the noise his mouth makes when he opens it when the vid starts lmfao
Maybe shouldve titled the video something like "How to lurk like Happy: without baiting"
who is here from Reddit?
Continue with the great job :D
Sean pls answer. What's the best way to pull the ct's all to one site? Fake a full bombsite take then have only 3 people take it?
let them see the bomb, that will 90% force them to rotate
What are those headphones
Sean the god :D
could you make a video teaching how to support like pros?
Whats the name of his headset??
Do a video on the astralis spraying the smoke lineup on overpass
Not much to really explain though :D. Would be like a 30s video
Cry ptiK no like if it should be allowed, during warmup, throighout the game or if sprays should even be in esl
What kind of headset is this? Is it any good?
Now all the pro teams r gonna watch this and try find a counter to this strat.
Lol 13:36 steel "WTF IS BAITING"
i lurk when my team needs the hard carry
please make more videos!!!!
Ty now everybody baiting on mm and think they're Happy
Whome would u choose as a lurk u have niko fallen simple and Stewie ... Who would be ur 5th guy playing lurk ..get_right,olof ,happy ....etc...
How to lurk (Without baiting like happy)
i bait everyone thats the reason why i clutch everytime everything!
I'm a lurker and i hate being called a baiter.
did adren reply to comments? want to ask something good for community which will help them a lot
What headset does he have?
What headset is that?
Very insightful, thank you Sean.
Liked this video cause of Steel saying "What the fuck is baiting?"
Joe HYPERLUL Stop baiting me you fucking toxic noob
Definitely flusha xD
The spot by tree must be called "gay spot" if he doesn't want to say it.
Happy rn: ._.
Your title makes it seem like you want to learn people how to lurk without baiting, like happy does. It kinda looks like you mean that happy is baiting :p
Tunggren CSGO he does lol
Ohh shite well thats me being stupid then :S
he does bait though lol, these clips show off the few times he did it right, most of the time on cobble happy will just sit above drop and wait for his whole team to die or until there's only one left then he'll START flanking... this inst an accurate representation of happy's average playstyle tbh
Tunggren CSGO of
the reason he usually doesnt start flanking immediatly is becasue he doesnt have enough information about there rotates
Didn't mention Get_Right the greatest lurker ever
