I need to kick Necco's rear end considering how much he phoned in the OP by just copy and pasting from the other thread. Buttman Brigade has been down for a long time now and the OP has zero mention of sub.io, and it even still refers for people to message coLe in order to join the CS:GOONS group, which is asinine. Either join the group chat and see if someone will send you an invite from there, or gently caress it, I volunteer for people to message/add me (turk) and I'll put them into the group myself. poo poo, does coLe even still read this thread, or does all he do is kz?

NECCO! FIX THIS poo poo YOU SLACKER!

Cruise looks dope as gently caress. It might be the new Agency. Empire reminds me of de_facade, which I liked a lot, although maybe not as close quarters. Tulip looks like a COD map, but I could see it being fun. Coast... eh, I'm not so sure about this one, but we'll see. Royal looks like you could stick it in DoD and it wouldn't look out of place, which could be a good thing.

I don't like cruise so much after running around in it. A lot of the big open areas are closed off by invisible walls and fences, so you can only run down a ~15 foot path down the middle.

I haven't ran around them; only looked at screenshots. But that is really disappointing to hear. That map would really benefit from being as open as the screenshots imply.

Watching this right now since I can't sleep. Will give a rundown in a bit.

DEMO RUNDOWN, rear end in a top hat STYLE!

COUNTER-TERRORIST

Round 2: After that first kill you should have either ducked back behind lockers or into A site to reload rather than just stand out in the open and be killed.

Round 3: When you're at headshot box you are erratically moving your crosshair from mid over to vent. Even though there was a smoke thrown to try and give them cover, it was a worthless smoke and you would have seen them come out from mid long before they'd disappear into that smoke. Keep your crosshairs trained on mid or boost depending on the information that's relayed to you.

Round 4: You are moving around far too much in A so that you really aren't watching any useful angles. Pick an angle and have patience. Of course, this isn't to say not to switch things up every once in a while, but there has been no time for them to even get a lock onto what you're doing in the first place. You're overthinking this by a great deal.

Round 5: Are you playing with speakers and not any headphones? I swear that I'm hearing things and it's almost as if you have no idea that the enemy is right above and/or next to you. Also, you could tell that enemy that got up on ladder in A was right above you, yet you ran to toxic to check out bottom mid. You are very lucky that your opponents are dogshit with aim, because anybody else could have taken your head off long before you got the dude in mid and turned to get him. Also, don't take out nades while completely exposed you did with the HE.

Round 6: Don't peek so wide. Gotta do some jiggle peeks and bait those scouts/awps once you heard squeeky open.

Round 7: Why the hell are you buying an M4 when your teammate had $12k at the beginning of the round? Tell that bitch to drop you something. I'm not sure why it took you so long to rotate over to B after the T's rushed it (I'm assuming that you could see bomb on radar, even if your teammates weren't communicating), not to mention you trying to pop flash vents when all three of you had an awp cornered in checkers. You could hear your teammates moving in on him; go join them!

Round 8: The Dreaded AWP Round. I know that you said to not even mention this round, but c'mon, Why were you peeking so wide? What you should have done to make yourself a smaller target was to hug the wall connected to squeeky so you could get a better angle on the T's in main.

Round 9: Why are you still at A when the bomb is down and the rest of your team is there? Your job isn't to go hunting for the last Terrorist; it's to ensure that the bomb stays dropped. Go rendevousz with your team.

Round 11: Same criticism as round 4. You aren't watching anything of value because you keep moving around. Give out necessary information to your teammates, and it looked like you were as they were converging into A to assist you, yet you moved away from holding the angle. If they had flashed out or smoked at all they could have barreled out into site uncontested.

Round 12: The Dreaded AWP Round Mk. II. While I appreciate the Death tribute name on the Asiimov... ouch, that was rough. Other than making your shots, I don't think there was much you could have done there.

Round 13: Again, why are you buying anything when one teammate has 10.5k and another has 16k. YELL AT THEM TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING. HOLY loving poo poo STOP PEEKING SO GOD drat WIDE ARRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why the gently caress didn't you take the shot? YOu could see his arm! It either would have killed him or done enough damage to scare him into retreating. Instead you just sat there waiting for a better shot and you got one tapped for your trouble.

Round 14: Again you go hunting for the Terrorist, allowing him to kill your two teammates watching the bomb. Luckily he had fuckall for time so his hand was forced, but think if he had another minute or so, you have made it into a 2v1 situation where you and your teammate have to split sites in case he runs away or tries to fake it. There's much larger strength in numbers.

TERRORIST

Round 16: *exasperated sigh* what a shitshow this round was. I mean, I think you did the right thing by trying to cover your flank. It's just your worthless team that really dropped the ball and couldn't hold main.

Round 20: That was good patience while going mid. Snuck up on him like a real ninja. Now incorporate some of that patience into your CT side.

Round 21: Footsteps had glitched out for me in the demo by this point, but that last CT by box in B main looked like he ran to hide behind it, which you most definitely should have been able to hear. Even if you didn't hear it, you already killed one CT that pushed, you should always check those corners by the box and into checkers when that happens just in case.

Also, this is just an observation, but stop trying to be overly cute with your grenades, namely flashes. You either don't get the angles right and just end up flashing yourself or they do absolutely no good at all. It's good that there's different uses for them, but it just looks like you're trying to make too many "pro moments" happen, and nothing transpires from it.

Go dm. A LOT. Also try out aim_botz and other reflex training maps. Do this for hours on end.

Sorry if this makes me sound like a dick.

While it doesn't work this way in Valve MM, it does for ESEA, and I think CEVO, too. Although it doesn't block their actual Steam profiles, but just the ones they use on those respective third-party carriers. Plus, you won't be matched up with that player in anymore games.
