Important note tor DMing: Do not under any circumstances take your K/D, kill streaks, any performance indicators seriously. DMing should be use purely for working on aim fundamentals, if you find yourself getting frustrated because you're not hitting your shots or are getting spawn killed constantly, take a break. Remember, DMing is not indicative of your future game performance. You can outfrag an entire server for an hour and immediately bottom frag your next 3 matches.
Absolutely. Can't count the amount of times I've DMed before a Faceit session only to perform poorly. Conversely, there have been days where I do not warm up and top frag. It's all about the consistency.
Thanks for sharing this i see so many people camping and getting salty when they go negative, who cares about dm stats even if they’re recorded it’s not competitive, have fun and practice how you play by utilising game mechanics.
Watching someone be straight up better than u after playing since 2017 is tuff but I can't thank you enough for the content and the messages in ur videos.
Lvl 8 reaching lvl 9 for the first time in cs2 here. Love the advice you give here especially confidence. What I found works for me the best is working with the team to make winning plays. Remember to all new counter strike players, there’s always a way to win no matter your stats, no matter the score.
The craftiness of pro's is a huge tip, I've recently started watching the pros on faceit and they come up with so many unique and borderline troll strategies that actually work. I have been using smokes a lot more as a sneaky 1way or hideout more than just blocking off high traffic areas.
you could also watch demos of a similarly ranked players or opponents in your games and act like you're the coach, calling out the good plays and mistakes if it comes to sensitivity the absolute golden value is the one that allows you to do a 360 rotation, but what's interesting that you will always be more consistent on lower sensitivity especially if you're using a speed mousepad and fast skates or just a glass mousepad and you don't have good mouse control(the dpi also matters with high dpi there will be more steps than with low one, you can see that by setting dpi to 400 and cs sensitivity to something like 5) that's because on higher sensitivity the little movements matter more and that can dictate if you will get a headshot or miss your shot entirely, that's why good aimers with better mouse control benefit more from less friction between the mouse and the mousepad so if you feel like you're missing your shots you could lower the sensitivity but keep in mind that you are bottlenecking yourself if you get shot from the back
yeah I was a 400dpi 1.4 god when I was younger but having to do 2 full swipes for a 180 is rough on your shoulder. I mean I still did and could make those frags but man it will cause fatigue if you play multiple matches in a row.
@@kulture_vulturee i used to play on 800 at 0.55 at that sensitivity you would have to go from one side of the desk to the other to go a full 360, now im playing 800(i divide it by 4 using rawaccel so its 3200 but the speed of 800) at 0.866(60cm to do a 360) Now that i think about it 0.55 was such a crazy sensitivity to play at
Great advice! I personally would even put communication as a higher priority to learn around level 3-4 so that people can at least call "Location > Number of Enemies > Damage/Action" (i.e. pushing, walking, ran back etc.) Not necessarily to do strats, but teammates are much more helpful if they tell me when they have contact (as long as it's simple and accurate, not "THEY'RE ALL HERE HELP" when it was 1 dude). My early climb would've been a lot easier if more people at least told me what the enemies are doing in their deathcam haha. Another banger video with concentrated information 👍
One thing I should have also mentioned is map awareness. In much lower ranks and solo queue in general, you can’t count on your teammates to communicate anything really. Having good map awareness really helps. Thanks for the feedback and thanks for watching, Sparta!
Btw I managed to get global on cs go with a laptop that gave me 50-70 fps on 800 x 600 res. Also would constantly have ping spikes up to 400 multiple times a game. Got to faceit level 8 too. Now I have a good PC and am always level 10 faceit.
Great video, just one small nitpick: it's actually perfectly fine to change your sensitivity. It won't mess with muscle memory (which doesn't really exist in the way people think) and practicing on higher sens can actually be helpful for e.g smoothness. Voltaic has an article that goes into more depth, I think it's called "Why muscle memory is seen as a meme in the aiming community" or something like that. Anyway, keep up the good work, your videos are so useful.
Important note overall: changing your sensitivity is completely fine and It's a huge myth that your 'muscle memory' is built on your sensitivity. You can change it as much as you want and no you won't be worse usually unless your sensitivity is actually too high to be accurate or too slow to make proper flicks. You'll adapt to your new sensitivity in minutes lol.
I’ve noticed that with my own personal experience. I think people put too much emphasis on their peripheral, settings, raw aim, and not enough focus on game sense and basic fundamentals. Anyway, thanks for watching!
1.Never play solo u only gonna have loses,bad mates and waste of time 2. U need mates with good aim, timing knowledge and game sanse 3. U need have good aim, timing knowledge and game sense That's how u gonna up lvl fast
I bet I can solo to lvl 10 ez rn I got like 100matches on faceit, solo to level 7, if I play for 300-400h more with intention I will get level 10 im sure
Lvl 3 here, 500 hours in game and the best advice for everyone if you want to improve at anything is efficiency! This applies if you want to reach your goal faster and not wasting too many hours. Use any advice you can and focus on the game more if this is really what you want.. good luck everyone
I top frag every game i know i have flaws but my teammates is just next level kind of bad im stuck between 10k -15k elo and faceit level 7 , ill use your advice and try to improve in the things i struggle with .
@@kulture_vulturee 2.0 kd almost every game still cannot win to save my life. used to be lvl 10 on my og faceit acc before losing access to my steam and getting faceit to delete my acc. currently stuck between 4 - 8, i wholeheartedly believe and feel as if low elo lvl 10 was easier than pisslow elo for solo queue games, got some games where my lvl 4 teammates are honestly 10 worthy, then games where my 7-9s are like borderline silver, just doesn't make any sense anymore. T -T
A lot of it is what feels comfortable for you. But a healthy starting point is finding the average sensitivity pros are using. Play with different sens and see what works best for you. But once you find one that feels comfortable don’t change it. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching bro
In my now 2.4 hours of CS I’ve played over the years, I’ve never played faceit. On CSGO, the highest rank I got to was DMG, and the highest elo I got to in CS2 premier was right below 18k. I was thinking I start my faceit journey in lvl 5, but I’m unsure
You should absolutely start that Faceit journey. If you’re anything like me and enjoy the competitive nature of the game, you’ll really enjoy it there. Good luck bro! And thanks for watching.
@@Ryderdie1 meant to say 2.4K hours haha forgot the K I plan to go down the faceit path soon, was just wondering if you think faceit level 5 is a good place to start for my experience level
At what ping does your gunfights start to get affected?I play on 70-200 ping on Chinese platforms like 5e and I am seriously considering switching to faceit sea
Try and play where the ping is the lowest, but as far as when ping starts to effect performance, I know for myself anything above 85~ it becomes unplayable. Thanks for watching!
If you're going from 70 to 200ms constantly during the match, it's unplayable against competent competition. Especially if they have a good ping that doesn't change often, you won't be able to hold a single angle with high ping
I’ve watched a bunch of your videos Ryderdie since I found your channel, I love all the advice. I’ve taken recently also into working 30 mins - 45 mins of my day dming on pracc. I’ve been a hardstuck level 7-8 on faceit. After playing dm and running into a match I still seem to be losing duels at times and also bad positioning. You make the game look so effortless sometimes. Is there a way for me to get out of my level 7-8? I peaked at 1725 but then dropped down to 1530. It really sucks… Everytime I drop down to 1500 it starts getting in my head because I hate being 7 or below. Do you have any advice for me? I’ve been stuck 7-8 between the elo for the past 8 months since picking up the game again…
Honestly bro just keep playing. As long as you continue to practice and play regularly you'll get level 10 in no time. If you have any more questions or something more specific be sure to join the discord and ask away!
Like most of us who started CS young, you either break or adapt. Mute them or just learn to talk shit back (scoreboard bro, tie my shoes while you're at the bottom, etc)
In faceit soloq, my team has one chance to bad mouth me, then they are muted for the rest of the game. Much peace in this method. 9.5/10 they never have anything useful to say anyways, only complaining to make themselves feel better.
Max I can commit to cs is about 2hrs a day. I can’t fit dming, practicing and playing pugs all in that time. Would you recommend just playing one pug a day and rest practice?
15min practice 15min DM rest playing the actual game. use those first two 15min block to knock the rust off. Could have an excel sheet with various things you wanna work on different days then do so during those 15min blocks
Like I mentioned in the video it really depends on what skill level you’re at. But playing games is one of the best ways to improve regardless of the skill level. If you can, try and fit at least some kind of training routine in your schedule. You’ll see improvements overtime if you’re dedicated to a routine. Thanks for watching!
I got back to CS after six months and have been kinda stuck. Haven’t played faceit yet since Im barely 5.5k prem. Ive been playing DMs almost every day for the past 3 months. Some days I dont. I practice my recoil, i do pre fire maps and sometimes Kovaaks. My aim just keeps getting worse and worse statistically according to Leetify. My friends are outperforming me now with way less experience and no practice at all. Recently got into a scrim server with people of all skill levels. I would be so inconsistent whenever I played with my friends but would feel more consistent when I play with a random 5 stack in one of those scrims. They had better coms, util, and just general game sense. Not sure if my performance is tied to my team but it just feels like I cant improve my aim. Has anyone experienced this?
For levels 1 and 2 I don’t. That’s because it’s too difficult for that skill range to find much from it. I recommend starting on Valve DM servers then moving to Prac later.
Leetify used to have an awesome feature where they would show you an elo graph. From the sites I use now there isn't any feature like that. Thanks for watching!
@@Ryderdie1 96% of the players only drone it and don't really think about crosshair placement and don't do proper counter strafing with A+W or D+W and the A+D strafing, so you might disagree with me but death matching is actually worsen your gameplay, not only with gameplay but with mentality if you don't hit your first couple of shots its over.. most people just death match just to deatch match. And not playing a proper game, and rewatching your own mistakes. People will Raw dog everything and just play shit ton of matches in order to gain gamesense and gameplay strats.
how the fuck did you play while you were in the army. Im in the military and the only time we get to leave is on weekends and sometimes were stuck there for 2 or even 3 weeks
I am not sure, why I watched the whole video 😂 I have 2.5k elo 😂 I think it’s a well done video 😂 But I think you missed out the most important part of cs. Good communication is the key to win. If you get a lot of useful info.. it makes the game so much easier.. even a „ I’m smoked off, they can push you“ helps so much for positioning
I mentioned it when I talked about level 7 but I couldn’t agree more. Solid communication can be the difference between winning and losing most games. Thanks for watching the whole video! More content to come.
Hackers! Because of hackers! See valorant, no need for third party server because of top of the line anticheat. I guaranteed if gaben invested to really improve their anticheat, people would go from faceit to the official server.
an honest guide would be have good pc good fps and thats it me with potato pc anticheat destroys my fps my teammates flaming me but they dont know i ge to 40 fps in duels making it almost impossible to hit anything
Does it matter to like play these practice maps or just waste your time just playing hoping that you'll improve? I have like 130 hours in this game for some reason and I'm only playing dust 2 as of now. I have no problems with my hardware and peripherals but generally I have a problem on mindset due to every matchmaking game that I play I don't achieve a rank that I want even tho I played that specific game maybe like 3-4 yrs+. I like this game really but the elo hell scares me.I experienced playing on faceit after like a good 80hrs of playtime and yeah it's not fun.Luckily faceit tries to mute any type of vulgar language but after that I just quitted faceit after like 2 games and spammed dust 2 eversince since it's a simple map. It's not like I'm not trying to improve sometimes I try to watch some lineups and try to implement them. NVM I'm just cooked.
Yeah the advantages of face it really is you get to deal with people that speak English the disadvantage is you'll get flamed if you're ass,I thought my aim will help me when I first played there xd.IDK why face it put me to Lvl.3 instead of lvl.1 but is it ok to be free there?(I'm not blessed with a good allowance :D )
If you have 130 hours you just need to keep playing. Deliberate practice will help you improve faster but you really just need to grind more matches to get actual experience
And another advice, how to waste less time, learn dodging. You dont want to play with 4stack of 0.6kd bots. You dont want to play with fishy new accounts with steam level 0 from russia. Also you dont want to join a lobby with 2 random ukros and 2 random russkies in one team. Just make a bunch of unsimilar alt accounts or simply buy them, verified russian acc costs single digit eur price. if you are paranoid, use voice and hw id changer and vpn. Also in EU block 4 worst servers infested with russkies and 100ms kazakhs. And the most important, wait for another platform and hope they deliver their promises (similat region and ping based mm)
Honestly I don’t understand why are you talking about Russians, I almost never even meet any Russians in Faceit, only Kosovo and Albania everywhere and of course Turkey and Poland
I know quite a few people with 20k premier and faceit level 3. But I haven't see faceit level 10 with 5k premier. 15k+ premier consist of level 2 all the way to level 10. And below 15k are mostly those that don't play faceit at all. Sometimes you meet 15k that are crazy good at the game, you would assume they are hackers, just to check their profile and they are level 10.
Not a reupload. Somewhat similar to my “No BS Guide to Improving at CS” but this one is really focused on specific skills to focus on to improve from each rank. Thanks for watching!
tbh those "guides" are dumb and useless. just be better? lmao there's nothing more to that. learn smokes.. learn how to shoot.. activate ur brain and think about what you're doing.. be aware.. and get lots of experience.. that's it...

you could also watch demos of a similarly ranked players or opponents in your games and act like you're the coach, calling out the good plays and mistakes
if it comes to sensitivity the absolute golden value is the one that allows you to do a 360 rotation, but what's interesting that you will always be more consistent on lower sensitivity especially if you're using a speed mousepad and fast skates or just a glass mousepad and you don't have good mouse control(the dpi also matters with high dpi there will be more steps than with low one, you can see that by setting dpi to 400 and cs sensitivity to something like 5)
that's because on higher sensitivity the little movements matter more and that can dictate if you will get a headshot or miss your shot entirely, that's why good aimers with better mouse control benefit more from less friction between the mouse and the mousepad

I would say it’s more 95 Faceit / 5 Premier.
I have about 1,400 games played on Faceit and maybe 80ish played on Premier.
out of those 80ish, how many do you feel were cheater filled?
Why do you dont recommend DMing on Pracc?
For levels 1 and 2 I don’t. That’s because it’s too difficult for that skill range to find much from it. I recommend starting on Valve DM servers then moving to Prac later.
@@Ryderdie1 ahh i missed the part that this was advice for lvl1&2. nice vid bud!
Use Cybershoke’s DM servers
Awesome advice bro
Thank you!
where do you see your graph of your elo?
Leetify used to have an awesome feature where they would show you an elo graph. From the sites I use now there isn't any feature like that.
Thanks for watching!
@@Ryderdie1 thx man youre awesome, found out faceitanalyser had a really good elo graph anyways. keep making these videos ❤️
@@vik-e I will. And thank you, it means a lot
For a player who is lvl 9 in faceit, and 6000 hours of playing time, death matching is actually good only if you want better awareness
I 100% disagree with this
@@Ryderdie1 96% of the players only drone it and don't really think about crosshair placement and don't do proper
counter strafing with A+W or D+W and the A+D strafing, so you might disagree with me but death matching is actually worsen your gameplay, not only with gameplay but with mentality if you don't hit your first couple of shots its over.. most people just death match just to deatch match. And not playing a proper game, and rewatching your own mistakes. People will Raw dog everything and just play shit ton of matches in order to gain gamesense and gameplay strats.
good video, straight to the point.
Thanks bro!
but the main thing is that whether you are lvl 10 eu or na
I have like 3 days played and im lvl 6 it is easy to be lvl 10?
I wouldn’t say it’s easy to get level 10, but with enough effort/practice I believe anyone can achieve it. Good luck!
its easier than it was in csgo
how can I lose elo scaring????
how the fuck did you play while you were in the army. Im in the military and the only time we get to leave is on weekends and sometimes were stuck there for 2 or even 3 weeks
The Air Force treats me right!
I am not sure, why I watched the whole video 😂 I have 2.5k elo 😂 I think it’s a well done video 😂
But I think you missed out the most important part of cs. Good communication is the key to win.
If you get a lot of useful info.. it makes the game so much easier.. even a „ I’m smoked off, they can push you“ helps so much for positioning
I mentioned it when I talked about level 7 but I couldn’t agree more. Solid communication can be the difference between winning and losing most games.
Thanks for watching the whole video! More content to come.
How can people bother to play faceit? Takes forever for everyone to connect to a game and 50% of cases its a cancelled match.
Hackers! Because of hackers! See valorant, no need for third party server because of top of the line anticheat. I guaranteed if gaben invested to really improve their anticheat, people would go from faceit to the official server.
an honest guide would be have good pc good fps and thats it me with potato pc anticheat destroys my fps my teammates flaming me but they dont know i ge to 40 fps in duels making it almost impossible to hit anything
Does it matter to like play these practice maps or just waste your time just playing hoping that you'll improve?
I have like 130 hours in this game for some reason and I'm only playing dust 2 as of now.
I have no problems with my hardware and peripherals but generally I have a problem on mindset due to every matchmaking game that I play I don't achieve a rank that I want even tho I played that specific game maybe like 3-4 yrs+.
I like this game really but the elo hell scares me.I experienced playing on faceit after like a good 80hrs of playtime and yeah it's not fun.Luckily faceit tries to mute any type of vulgar language but after that I just quitted faceit after like 2 games and spammed dust 2 eversince since it's a simple map.
It's not like I'm not trying to improve sometimes I try to watch some lineups and try to implement them.
NVM I'm just cooked.
When you talk about mm are you talking about Prime MM? I don't even have prime I'm literally playing with random chinese players(I'm on SEA server).
Yeah the advantages of face it really is you get to deal with people that speak English the disadvantage is you'll get flamed if you're ass,I thought my aim will help me when I first played there xd.IDK why face it put me to Lvl.3 instead of lvl.1 but is it ok to be free there?(I'm not blessed with a good allowance :D )
If you have 130 hours you just need to keep playing. Deliberate practice will help you improve faster but you really just need to grind more matches to get actual experience
And another advice, how to waste less time, learn dodging. You dont want to play with 4stack of 0.6kd bots. You dont want to play with fishy new accounts with steam level 0 from russia. Also you dont want to join a lobby with 2 random ukros and 2 random russkies in one team. Just make a bunch of unsimilar alt accounts or simply buy them, verified russian acc costs single digit eur price. if you are paranoid, use voice and hw id changer and vpn. Also in EU block 4 worst servers infested with russkies and 100ms kazakhs. And the most important, wait for another platform and hope they deliver their promises (similat region and ping based mm)
Honestly I don’t understand why are you talking about Russians, I almost never even meet any Russians in Faceit, only Kosovo and Albania everywhere and of course Turkey and Poland
@@Manticorus_YT Depends on luck, but russians and turks are prevailing.Both unwanted in game.
Bro im 15k premier only level 2 faceit idk wtf is going on and i really think its just cuz griefers
I know quite a few people with 20k premier and faceit level 3. But I haven't see faceit level 10 with 5k premier. 15k+ premier consist of level 2 all the way to level 10. And below 15k are mostly those that don't play faceit at all. Sometimes you meet 15k that are crazy good at the game, you would assume they are hackers, just to check their profile and they are level 10.
at the end of the day you just cant teach passion
am i schizophrenic or is this a reupload?
Not a reupload. Somewhat similar to my “No BS Guide to Improving at CS” but this one is really focused on specific skills to focus on to improve from each rank.
Thanks for watching!
Yo, what a G
😎
avg DMA user
Nah, im 2500 elo and some striaght ass
Just drink and play. Worked for me so why not anyone else 😂
good vid
tbh those "guides" are dumb and useless. just be better? lmao there's nothing more to that. learn smokes.. learn how to shoot.. activate ur brain and think about what you're doing.. be aware.. and get lots of experience.. that's it...
noone is communicating in lvl 6 lobbies this game is officially dead
started play cs in Sept 2023 and u already lvl 10?? HAHAHAHAHA ok broski. Lies
What makes you say that?
