Summary : Silver: 1) Don't just look where you're thinking. 2) Don't look at an angle and walk into another dangerous angle at the same time 3) Don't give up your good (defensive or offensive) positions just for the sake of being "mobile" and let your enemies take advantage of that. Gold Nova: 1) Remember to time your nades (mollies and smokes) to make the most out of them. 2) Stop at each angle to shoot, don't shoot and strafe unnecessarily at the same time. 3) Don't stop in the middle of a defuse unless you know you are in danger, you can look around defusing. 4) Don't glue your crosshair to the corner, actually trace (if the opponent is overpeeking and not jiggpeeking). Faceit Level 5: 1) Aim at head, but not too high. 2) Don't keep your crosshair too close to the corner as you approach it, adjust it proportionally as you close in so you don't have to flick as far when they appear. 3 (interpreted)): Practice more so you can execute plays more perfectly and understand the fundamentals more. Faceit Level 6: 1) Don't pre-aim every angle by staring at the wall when coming out of a wall, that can cause problems if they jump in your face, so try to jiggle (trace the corner with crosshair) as you approach a corner just in case. You are trying to hard clear an angle, but there would be other angles in between these angles which could catch you off guard. 2) Don't swing and constantly move when clearing every angle as if you are doing it by obligation, try to stop for an instant every time you anticipate a player around the corner to make it easier for you if there was. Faceit Level 10 (Anti-crosshair placement): 1) Predict where you opponents might be, how they might place their crosshair whilst clearing, and appear from another place to catch them off guard. 2) Give your opponents fake signals (fake defusals, fake plants, etc.) and quickly flick back to where they might peek from to catch them off guard. 3) When you know your opponent will definitely be peeking from a specific angle soon, strafe from that position while keeping your crosshair on point to make yourself harder to shoot. 4) Back off from a position if you know that your opponent know that you're in this position into to catch them off guard while they are trying to catch you off guard. 5) Aim at the edges of the smokes if the smoke is not in a corridor or enclosed area whilst on the offensive because you know that defender will attempt to peek from the edge of the smoke. Professional: 1) If you need to fall back but don't have enough time, fall to the nearest unpredictable position to use the element of surprise as your defense. 2) adjust the distance between your crosshair and the cornerwhen anticipating a push depending on how cautious your opponent's approach will likely be. 3) Try to always be at a slightly different place despite holding the same angle to never let the enemy hover their crosshair directly on you, and always require adjustments.
Rotations depend a lot on the team you play with. When I play with my friends, I rotate quickly if the player on the site is weak and I trust the information. In PUGs, information is mostly sketchy and I take a standard route to rotate.
If you don’t spot bomb, don’t rotate. Even if they say 4 on B, and there’s no sight of bomb, don’t rotate. if your team mates can hold A by themselves then stay, if not, maybe rotate mid player and you take his place
@@alphaleague6472 well its not rlly like that, if that 2 person can hold againts 4 players easily then sure eh. but most of the time guarding site againts 4 players is extremely hard, the players on site needs to get some frags and delay their push as much as possible so its gonna be atleast 3v4 as the rotators go directly in. ofc you just dont want to fully 5 people on 1 site but you can half rotate like for example when holding b then theres a lot of pressure on a you go towards market and just wait for extra info
@@alphaleague6472 and also considering if theres 4 guy on a, even if the bomb was planted b theres gonna be atleast 3 cts surviving and rotate directly to b and get free defuse
@@muhammadfahrimuharram74 yeah and oh well if the one guy plants just play retake against the one guy. Better to have numbers rather than a 2v1 retake. I feel most of voos viewers are brain dead
people have mentioned this before, don't see how this is necessarily notable? I guess it takes the potential away from someone else to get into the video but I don't get more than 1-3 level 10s that submit each time so it's slim pickings
@@vooCSGO if I could get some demos together to show im in ELO hell what are the chances it will get seen by you? I'm really struggling to get out of silver and I literally do everything in my matches. I have lost matches while dropping 46kills and over 100 score
Level intermediate and up is the most solid advice I have gotten from your videos yet. My crosshair ° on leetify is like 11.8 average, 9 in good games but 13 or more in bad games. It's something I try to focus on in dm a lot so I got it down in games as well.
I would really like for you to show more in-depth from in-between level 7/8/9/ low 10, mid 10, and high 10, because this video really skips over some very large portions. There is a lot to learn on crosshair placement from lvl 7 to being pro, and more in-depth here would be incredibly helpful.
Thank you so much voo! Your videos, along with the entire community really, helped me get out of Silver a few months ago and now I'm getting close to MG. Everytime I feel like something needs work, you read my mind and upload that topic. Much love and keep up the great work
Same for me. Was sem when i started playing cs, now im at gnm and close to ranking up. In my opinion focusing on crosshairplacement and positioning helped me the most. Sure aim is important but if yoh have good crosshairplacement you will need to sim way less
@@Gt-yi1xo Honestly just learning more about the game. The perspective of your character, crosshair placement (also played some aim maps which helped), counterstrafing and movement, and learning what works over time
4:19 is a very effective play to make. even if you know the trick its still hard to stop sometimes. 5:55 right idea done badly although im guilty of it too. following the angle with your crosshair is fine but not right on the corner. crosshair placement right on corners seems to be the common issue as the last clip he was too close to the corner on short. good video again!
Same here. I have 2.6k and I used to be so shocked whenever I saw my teammates hit shots like this. I guess it's the same as if you hold m1 with a nade, defuse, and then let it go you, will be able to throw it way much further.
It gives extra reach. If i saw an ak lying on short close to angle, which is very likely to be held by awp from sands, i'd rather use e instead of wide swing with g
@@kirowaterlaw9432 in the case that silver was the galil was on really bad angle so either way he would die getting peeked from site firebox jungle and maybe someone can push him from connector and tetris to ct stairs

Hey Voo, love the video, and I am noticing that a decent amount of the things with intermediate-advanced crosshair placement I can do, but could you possibly do a video on how to identify how your opponent is going to swing? [I.E, with Yekindar being able to hold for that guy who was in popdog with that tight angle]
@@danielmiller5277 generally the more of an off angle you're holding, the more likely they are to over peek the angle you're holding. you're also playing on people's expectations, so if you've adjusted your angle more narrow or wide compared to where you were last seen and/or where they're expecting a player, you obviously want to adjust accordingly.
@@vooCSGO Yakindars pov was really interesting to see. Thanks for including that. I think I'm bad at those micro movement adjustments, like what he did on train vs that Olof swing.
Syren’s example was exactly what I did up until yesterday when I found a “lazy crosshair placement” video. I knew there was an issue with my game but I really struggled to locate the issue until someone directly criticised my gameplay. Makes me question whether or not I’ve developed many other bad habits! Great video, definitely a massively overlooked element of CS, especially at a lower level.
Yekindar is hugging the wall at 13:14. Did he go silver for a few seconds? Or do you generally hug the wall in aggression and away from the wall when defending?
@@helpineedvanke3175 no it's free to submit, obv no guarantee you get in but the 4 levels stuff i just send out a ping asking and close it after a few days
My crosshair placement stats from Leetify are equivalent to Global Elite stats... While I'm actually stuck in S4... I Guess crosshair placement isn't everything
"Tracing" the corner is for when you are peeking around it. You'll be ready when you enter the angle they're holding. Alternatively, if you're holding the angle and they peek you, you want some space from the corner to react. "Chaining" is bad here.
Basically, tracing is when you line up a certain point through/near the wall, and then peek/hard clear/jiggle it with a stop, while being exposed to as little angles as possible. You do this on B site Inferno a lot for example. Chaining is when you are moving/running but you keep your xhair on the wall preparing to shoot/peek. This is bad because if the opponents play a bit more aggressive than usual you'll get caught with your crosshair on the wall.
Hey voo, I use the y - prac practise maps to help train a few maps, and practise patching and clearing angles onto sights (and some basic nades) would you recommend it (or something else) and do you have any tips for using it?
what do you think about Niko crosshair placement? I think for someone using slow sens and has a methodical aim like Niko, he should have one of the best crosshair placement too.
I don't actually understand when to tracing a corner,because i can see some pro just preaim at the spot and peek out especially niko is preaiming a angle a lot,instead of tracing the corner.He did it because of he know enemy won't be around the corner or what? I am annoyed by this question for a while,i'll be appreciated if you can answer my question and sorry for bad grammar
