I still go on now and then, and Swiggs has recently made an account. Just send you a friend request, hopefully catch you on there soon!

Thanks guys and girls, great fun!

Damn, I thought I'd signed up already but it looks like I never posted, hopefully it's not too late?!

TheSwiggsScenario is also in, so add us both please!

I'm down for this but can probably only commit to say, twice a week. How intense are you planning on getting into this?

Also on the ESEA/FaceIt discussion, pretty sure ESEA is paid membership. I'd rather give it a go on something free like FaceIt, at least to start.

I'd love to but my PC is busted good luck if you do get a team together though!

Nice skins you're giving away today! If it isn't too greedy I'll have the Famas as well please...

I'll have the duellies if they're still around please!

Thanks Slow, duellies received!

I'll have the duellies if they're still around please!

Welcome

I'd love the USP-S if it's still around. Cheers!

Phew! See you tonight then

You're not hanging up your CS boots for good, surely?!

With MM as it is currently you probably would have deranked on the winning side..... xD

The most basic things I would say that really helped me are:

1. Crosshair placement. A lot of players will be looking at the ground/sky/where they're walking and as CS:GO is mostly (debatable?) about reaction times this can really hurt you. Keep your crosshair at head level, think about where the enemy will be when rounding corners, etc.

2. Sensitivity. Keep sensitivity low to make sure you can accurately aim. This will help in the future as well as you consider recoil/etc as well. Pairs nicely with a large mouse mat, which you asked about.

Other than that I'd agree with uni: practice practice practice! You can't force your brain to know the maps/timings/economy without getting in there and playing it. Concentrate on basic skills (crosshair placement for now, recoil later, etc) and let the feel of the game come from lots of play.

Good luck!

Yeah it's still on, I'm drawing the names (with the skins) once the Christmas tournament is over.

Hooray!
