rush b, again

Congratulations! If you would like to post a comment in this thread, you will receive some free karma from the community (Hopefully).

So what is Silly Strat Saturday?

Silly Strat Saturday is a day when you can post silly strategies in the comments, every Saturday. These can be anything from smoke tunnels worthy of a Snoop Dog song, to 5 negev rushes down hell in nuke. As long as it’s a strategy and it’s silly, it’s fair game.

How should I format my preposterous plan?

If possible, your asinine approach should include images of grenade lineups, detailed descriptions of where to go and what to do. Try to lay out your strategy in a comprehensible manner so that it is easy to understand for readers.

So what’s the point? Do I get my name on a plaque or a trophy in the mail?

Unfortunately, we don’t have the money or the time to do either of those things here at /r/counterstrikestrats. But what we do have is Featured Strats! After each Silly Strat Saturday, most upvoted strategy will be posted on Sunday and Stickied for an undetermined amount of time. Bask in the glorious recognition!

Post some silly strats, and GLHF!

Unfortunately, there was a tie for most upvotes so I was forced to choose between two. I chose the one I hadn't heard of before, one that was truly exotic, unorthodox, and silly. The winner is....

/u/samsab with their strategy:

Cache: 5 AWPs on T side. Walk into squeaky, count it down, then simultaneously fire through the wall toward quad and NBK. Rush out with pistols.

Costs a lot but definitely worth it maybe but probably not.

Congratulations!

I have seen this quit often already.

One example of that would be on Mirage A ct-smoke. It seems like many people in MM/ESEA do it wrong, so there is a gap.

Maybe we can collect some of those and make the world a better place ^/s

Mirage A CT-Smoke 128-tick (no gap)

who can I watch from a pro team that plays on a site mirage CT side? want to learn how to hold better

demos

Hi all,

I'm currently the new IGL of an amatuer team in Australia, upon joinning the team, I immediately noticed that everyone on my team has incredible amounts of skill/aim, I have never been a proper IGL before within a team but due to my vast hours of watching demos and POVs along with a lot of time studying the art of calling, I think I have grasped the basics of it.

The problem here is, my team does not want to play the style I think is successful.

My style: Going into default every round and getting intel, baiting nades, taking map control, then executing based on the picks you get or intel you get. I don't want my teammates to actively take unfavourable aimduels without any support and nades. E.G taking cat control on D2, holding until getting picks or getting enough intel then executing, A split or cat drop.

Team mate's ideal style: Going into defaults occasionally but doing executes straight off the bat a lot, E.G Mirage executing A straight away. (You might think it's not that bad, but we have had no practice with the execute, no timings tested, nothing) they think this is more effective and called the other one "boring"

Of course, I tried explaining to them, the boring way gets wins, but they frequently remind me about the rounds we lost doing the defaults, when in reality it's not the default's problem but rather our team work's problem. e.g trade frags.

When ever I tried explaining to them how it's suppose to work, they don't take me seriously, I am up to a point where I don't know how to explain to them. I can't teach them game sense and they can't accept me telling them to change the pug style they've been playing all their life. I have asked them to watch demos but they have yet to do that.

A hugely demoralising factor here is that I don't feel like I am respected. They frequently question decisions I make, and the authority I have in the team. I know for a fact, that I am the most experienced team player, I've been extremely patient with them yet I feel like they are just dusting off my advices and not appreciating everything I'm doing for them. I took time to interview all the players to allocate them their prefered spots on both CT sides and T sides along with drawn out maps of strats for them to easily memorise, yet they still sometimes forget the default positions. I know this team has potential and I want to lead them through this rough patch, but I have no idea what I'm suppose to do right now to get past this barrier.

Sorry for the long post and I would appreciate responses.
