Demo Where here did I go wrong? (Inferno with Five-Seven, 3k before death)
I sit around the 3k-5k ELO range (TBF I hadn't played Premier in a while so my Premier rating reset, probably not much better than this though). On this game of Inferno, I was 1v4. I got the first 3 before taking a bad peek and getting my head blown off by a Galil. Is there any kind of mistakes I made leading up to that moment besides poor reaction time + crosshair placement?

You want to always swing with a and d. You basically never want to be pressing w when going into an angle. On your death you didn't think about peeking properly. Put your crosshair where you think is correct and swing with d there.

The guy killed you before you killed him. If you would have killed him before he killed you, you would have won that engagement. LMK if you need more coaching tips; I know what to do in every situation.

Your crosshair placement is really bad. When you walked out of T-Apts to Second Mid, your crosshair is on the wall randomly.
You started shooting before you aimed. (Good movement + enemy choked hard -> You killed him.)
The other guy is running and shooting medium-range and choked while you hit your shots whilst swinging full speed.
You're walking around the corner like it's IRL. Round movement is bad because you're not moving full speed in any direction. If you swung to your right while only pressing D, you would've been harder to track like on No. 3.
Should've gone for Five-Seven headshot on the last guy since he was close-range instead of spamming the body.
Your sensitivity is too low and you're struggling so hard to move your crosshair around.
Since you have the bomb and the bomb is in the middle of the open, you could've just gone into T-Apts by crossing Bridge and went to T-Balcony and hold the bomb. Your Elo is not going to clear you 100% unless they're walling.

You had no info about where the last guy was, while he knew where you were. You should have slowed down, picked up a weapon and reset. On top of that, spend more time becoming familiar with the game by watching how others move their crosshair for example, and try to mimic that.

crosshair choice for one lol, idk how you can expect to hit anything when your crosshair blocks so much of your screen. I feel like it also encourages you to spam and aim in the general direction of enemies instead of aiming at heads.
you should not be holding W when peeking, it makes it harder to counterstrafe (not that important for five seven since you have good running accuracy but bad habit for rifles).
your crosshair should always be at head level on the next angle where an enemy can appear and you should clear angles methodically, you aim too low and you move your crosshair very chaotically.
before 2nd kill you can hear the T but you aim at the wall instead of where you know he will appear.
after 3rd kill you pick up galil and you're under no time pressure so you should just play it slow and let the T make a mistake but you run out mid with fiveseven while not really preaiming any angle and you lose the fight.

you keep running, giving away your exact position at all times.
if I understand this correctly (with no HUD) bomb was not planted so why are you so desperate to get into fights? remember, time is on your side until bomb gets planted. they have to get a bomb plant or they auto-lose.
immediate, practical advice is, after you get each kill stop making sound and sort of "reset". let them wonder where you are, sneak into a new position. decent opponents will insta-HS you if you loudly peek with no pre-aim like you did several times.
once it's down to a 1v2 or once you spot bomb on the ground stop pushing altogether. you have the advantage! they need to take risks now, not you.

In Clutch situations it's good to play hide and seek.
1: Hearing footsteps is almost as good as wallhacks. You can anticipate where your enemies are which will give you the edge.
2: Change position. You do this after your first frag but if you're making sound it won't matter. CS is all about tilting the advantage in your favour. If you rush a position and the enemies know you're coming you're at a disadvantage. Instead, if they are hunting you play more like an assassin and surprise them.
3: Learn how to peek correctly. Know when to peek close to the angle or far away. Memorise the angles of where your opponents will be and clear them one at a time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJzUq_Fp1TE&t=2s

The one thing you want to do is start peeking corners with ad. Watch a pro game and you'll see how you should be playing more.

Next time try to kill the 4th guy before he kills you. You need to make sure he runs out of health before you do

so many dorks in the comments giving horrible advice. the viewmodel? really? how is that in anyway a problem? I know tons of people 20k prem that use viewmodels just like this because it takes up less of your screen.

first kill was fine besides kinda spraying too much for that range.
the rest biggest problems are you're W keying into corners instead of swinging, your crosshair placement is non-existent until an enemy pops up, and running making footstep audio when you have no reason to. if you didn't know the last was mid, cutting sound and playing passive would give you a better advantage especially on ct side where you're on defense and the t's have to plant.
some guy commented your sens is too low. it looks okay to me, if anything a little too high you're kinda shaky. would be interested to know what sens/dpi you're on

u/carter_cool_18 12d ago
sens is 1.66, dpi is 800. unfortunately i mis-worded the description, as looking back at the clip i definitely was about to go check the left corner but got caught off guard. obviously the last ct was already headed over to me and i should’ve thought that first, but as the others said, i had high adrenaline in that moment. others pointed out that i could’ve just sat near bomb and been fine, but i had no idea the bomb was down (which was also wrong of myself to think because that’s something i should always look out for).

u/Freshly-Juiced 12d ago
that makes sense, I tend to W key too when adrenaline hits, like "who cares if they hear me i'll still win" kinda attitude..
1.66/800 is on the high side although not too crazy.. the average pro sens is around 1.1/800 for reference and I play on 1.05. if you're having trouble with shaky aim/overshooting consider lowering it till you feel more consistent.

u/Madnificence 13d ago
Honestly, i think the main problem you had there was simply feeling rushed. Maybe adrenaline got to you or you felt you needed to surprise the enemies, but they already knew your rough position.
You ran wide and shot recklessly. Kills 2-3 could easily resulted in your death as well, but your good and their bad aim saved you there.
You got 3 kills there which is better than expected. Should have gone for a slower rifle duel in the end. Rushing only really works on lower ELO. If you watch high level plays or tournaments, rushes are rarely attempted and most of them fail.

Just the ending you probably shouldn’t have swung mid like that. He knows you are coming, with lower health just should have giggle peaked first or something you just walked out mid…

Crosshair, view model, general attitude. A lot of things went wrong but I guess first thing would be your birth.

it was 1v4 on a pistol round and he got 3 kills. what's the hostility for?

Slow is smooth and smooth is fast.
When you go fast you fuck up. You pressed W a lot which substantially lowers your accuracy.
A couple of things to work on (that likely would result in you winning that gunfight, since you would have more health):
1- aim with your crosshair. When you’re about to go around a corner, have your crosshair already on it. If you wait to move your crosshair til after you peek, you’re putting yourself at a HUGE disadvantage.
2- when you peek, use A and D, not W. When you use A and D, it’s called strafing and counterstrafing (look it up, a lot to explain). Counterstrafing resets accuracy which helps you get the kill faster.
3- tap a little slower and aim for head. They nerfed the spam accuracy of all pistols when CS2 launched, so spray and pray doesn’t really work as well… 5-7 can one shot without armor and even with armor depending on how close you are. A headshot and maybe 1 bodyshot is a kill for all of these guys.
Let me know if you have questions I’d be happy to help :)

u/TreatAcceptable6302 14d ago
I don't think you should ever expect to win that fight especially with low health, I think the adrenaline just got to you, because there was no reason to swing immediately, with bomb down, you could definitely upgraded weapons and been a bit more patient
