Best cs training videos ever. I improved from hard stuck gold to now 15k and still see all the mistakes I’m doing that I never noticed. I believe even 20k is possible.
I like that this trainings routine does not assume any skills in the game. Many training advice you can find on youtube are targeted at already strong players and skip basics. thanks for sharing. I will go on a server to check my basics, even though I am 22k
One thing that helped me tremendously with my aiming is to activly concentrate totally on my movement/ left hand and forget about aiming/right hand, because that just happens naturally.
Tracking heads is the best skill you can learn for being good at CS. Flick shots are great but there's a high margin of error with flick shots and should be used in only very limited circumstances.
Really good video. Used to be 2300 elo in csgo (nothing big), and has been struggling so hard in cs2 since realease. Have used this as warmup/training few days and i FINALLY see some improvements and actually starts hitting my shots again. Thanks
just wanted to leave a quick comment to let you know that this routine is amazing! even after just one day of working with it, I did genuinely notice a difference in my gameplay. excited to see how it translates as times goes on as well.
@@pienixcs road to holding 10k elo lol, thanks again. you should make a video on effective peeking at some point as well- that I struggle with heavily.
Man thank you, i got to level 10 without knowing how important the tracking was, and now after practicing a tiny bit of tracking before matches my aim has improved like by 50% it's crazy, now I feel i can climb up elo a lot easier. Nice video.
ive got to say i taught myself to aim like this and it works pretty fine. Thinks I would like to note. Movement is key to do good strafes but also doing bhop makes u more comfortable with strafing. Another thing, you haven't mentioned is doing double taps as soon as possible to start seeing your aim weaknesses. It's true cs2 is all about horizontal movement but many people miss the fact that vertical movement is important. And also something very rare to train is killing the first enemy with a spray and then stop spraying and kill the other enemy with one tap. Very useful since it teaches you the timing with the ak 47 for example and many people only aims down and loses the headshot. Last but not least, I see him very unconfident with his aim and until the end of the video, he is getting more snappy. I would say he needs to do a quick hands warm up. In conclusion, the best way to train your aim is to do the hardest challenge and also put urr crosshair in very awkward positions in order to feel more confident.
Keep up the good work! I have been copying what you told xboxlasagne to do and here I am top fragging some of my games in 14k premier/lvl 5 face it after not touching fps games in 20+ years! To everyone using high edpi: if you are not an absolute prodigy, just lower it to something like 750 and learn to use your elbow more. You WILL get more kills and movement comes later.
Hi coach this is a really good video for training and evolving my aim and i learned so much! I just found your channel and im starting to focus on CS2 to go pro and im new to fps but i will practice a lot thanks to your coaching. Dziękuję!
Thats true, i think that the most important as a starter is to understand the principles and mechanics and then think about being pro, each step by step @@pienixcs
thanks a lot for your content. inspired by this and Steini's video i trained my aim for only 20days (until now) and improved my aim-rating from 63 to 82.
wow this strategy video coaching is amazing, my play improved instantly by a lot right away, just from concept of strafing, stopping, adjusting and shooting, i missed a lot before cause i was still moving, this video improved cs play a lot
I've notice that I missed a lot of shot while peeking. So I tried to shot bots but the biggest mistake was A-D. That's why. Now I can train properly. Thanks again Pienixcs. Happy new year!
This is the best aiming training I've seen. Before, when I was younger I was an aim freak. I liked how Scream played, and started to one tap and flick on headshot, not too much burst or spray, and did not have proper movement or peeking. Now, I have much more knowledge on thse topics and can say I am a much better player
Those are some good exercises. Seems like he is trying to train habits the slow way, and that is the best way. It is the most time consuming but also the most effective. Its how i train for shooting pistols. Draw slowly, acquire target, aim, shoot. It makes for great habits when you get faster or are in a situation when you need to use a pistol.
very good. speed before accuracy breeds bad habits. once i calmed down i saw massive improvement in my aim. People watch pros and assume they are throwing their mouse around on flicks and stuff when really its just a nice calm precise movement
Here is my routine and what i focus on in case someone cares: raw skills to master: counterstrafing, tracking, flicking, flicktracking so with most trainings i try to flick 1tap and then track afterwards. I train muscle memory with aim_treeni in 75 Minute sessions split into 25 Minutes each (pause inbetween as needed)
Excellent video, do you also recommend deathmatch? After doing this training last night, I went into deathmatch and I noticed massive improvements on my headshots. However I don’t want to get too tired before joining competitive server. This also helped with my awp flicks!
I believe you forgot to mention the maps to use for this. BTW I see you use two different FASTAIM maps that are similar, one is bigger and the other is more complete. Do you prefer one?
Would you be willing to share some drills for improving at entry fragging, if you have any? Thank you for uploading content to youtube, it is incredibly generous to share it
nice video i am lvl 10 faceit but still watching in hope i find out something new :D i never burst somehow. either i spray if it's short or mid rang or if it's long range i always one tap and rarely burst . don't know if i should prac with bursting :D
I used to play with 2,1x800 DPI but I lowered it to 1,6x800 (compared to him, I have 1280 eDPI and the mate you are coaching 880. I have about 45% more eDPI than him) Aiming was insanely better but still I have a few aiming and movement problems. I need quit long to get used to my Mouse Sensitivity if I didn´t play for like 1 or 2 days or so. But if I am actually warmed up it feels pretty good, I can also do some crispy flick shots. Movement like counter strave I am aware of it. I have got 3300+ hours, GE wingman, Supreme Matchmaking in CS:GO and then I did a few years break, as I came back, I had huge movement problems. Anyways I am struggle like always in pistole rounds or generally and eco rounds if I need to play pistoles such as deagle. I am doing that counter strave but the adjustment, specially very small adjustments are kinda hard, harder than bigger adjustments. For example its easier to adjust 2cm than 0,5cm. What would you recommand? Training more what you showed in the video or do I HAVE TO set my sens lower no matter what? Btw. Thank you a lot for your great content, you are helping me a lot to improve!
I think you should just learn to play with a lower eDPI. I know movement feels hard at first but it's mostly because you are trying to do it with the same physical movements and that is just not possible on lower edpi. You need to pick up your mouse and use your elbow a lot. If you don't have a good & lightweight mouse, good pad, and most of all, the right height table/chair it's not so fun to use low sens, but after you fix these it becomes second nature.
@@kennaeeI could go lower eDPI, my mousepad is large enough, but my mouse is pretty heavy, specially the backside of my mouse and that makes it pretty annoying to lift up my mouse. Also I used to move my mouse with my wrist more than with my elbow, idk how bad this habbit is. I already have a big mouse but still I get sometimes with my fingers or wrist on my mousepad and that blocks me to aim with my mouse. Would you recommand gloves or is there a easy fix if I am just get used to new habbit how I should hold a mouse?
s1mple plays at 1236, stewie2k at 1760. i also play at 1280 and that’s what’s most comfortable to me, you shouldnt be locked to an edpi around 800. play whatever is comfortable for you, everyone has a different playstyle. wouldnt hurt to try lowering though. usually im entry fragging and prefer the higher dpi to check my corners while my team is flashing me in.
I also agree that one tapping is useless, but when you're warmupping you can practise counter strafes with one taps to feel your game character's moves ;D. What do you think?
Is it possible to be competetive in cs while having fps drops from 150 to 90 at times? For example when smokes and mollys +many shots are fired. I have 144 hz monitor
I can only speak for NA but I made it to lvl 10 with a laptop where I got similar frames only recently did I upgrade to a pc. Although I would advice you upgrade asap because you will exponentially improve with better specs
I'm playing 0.58 @ 800 dpi. I know its crazy low but everytime I try to turn it up (maybe 10%) my wrist starts to hurt. Dont know what to do because it hurts my movement but my playstyle becomed more calm and collected with lower sense. Also getting less caught of guard when someone is in an off angle. I'm 37 so my days of going pro is over ❤
imma be honest, if your wrist hurts, it means it's not used to aiming, youre exclusively playing with your arm it seems (obv with that low sens). that's bad, since our arms in their entirety, so fingertips, wrist and arm are very well designed to work together. you'll find that many top aimers use all of those parts of the arm somehow. ofc it comes down to preference, but if you wanna devote your time to practice and get better, i would advise you to go into training and change your sens to high, low medium etc. find what works for you, try sacrificing more time for training with a high sens, which foces you to adjust with your wrist so that you get used to it. contrary to popular belief, playing with one sens isn't that great for improvement, frequently changing your sens and training will cause you to get better at ALL sensitivities, including your own. after consistent practice you will be better and maybe after you incorporate your wrist and fingers more, you'll be a very good aimer with a higher sens, using both your arm and your wrist to adjust. you can even try custom acceleration, so that your faster flicks get your crosshair further, but that's a lot of tweaking and, again, practice. in summary, with the right settings for you and a lot of practice, you can basically train yourself into being both a fast aimer and an accurate one, elevating your playstyle
i have to clarify, i meant go into training and change your sens to liw medium high frequently, but find a range and train a certain amount of time with multiple different sensitivities. different parts of your arm will start to be trained and you'll rely more on your hand-eye coordination than on mindlessly autopiloting on your usual sens. muscle memory when aiming is a myth and it's scientifically proven to be based on hand-eye coordination. muscle memory only takes care of the particular muscle that has to be used, it does not translate into aiming onto stimuli from your screen
@@kane_grocerys Thanks for your comment and I believe you are right, in a way. Out of curiosity I just realised I had some old fragmovies from 1.6 and just watched them, I can see that I'm using low sense from clips that was made around 15-20 years ago. Probably lower than I have today 😂 I have been experimenting with going higher the last couple of years and I do play better at deathmatch at higher sense (I hit a record of 95 kills in 10 minutes of deathmatch just the other week) but then going into a game taking normal duels feels awkard and I cant win the same duels that I'm used to with lower sense. But yeah my hand tense up when I play at higher sense (going above 0.63 on 800 dpi) and I now have inflamation in the nerves around the elbow now that makes playing at higher sense probably will never work for me. I also think the g pro superlight that I have been using the last 2 years is to small for me so got myself an ergo mouse hoping I can get a relaxed grip. I'm playing at 20k+ elo, got +1.2 k/d and 3+ rating on letify at avarage. I guess I should be happy with that as an old fart that became a dad 2 years ago 😂. But I will still wanna try to improve and I know going up in sensitivity is the way for me. I will get my new mouse soon (just ordered a lamzu - thorn) and hope I get a better grip with that one.
Yeah I think I'm just gonna stay down here. Its a hack forcing you to clear off angles more often, its harder to just rush randomly so you take it more slowly and it makes your aim look as stable as a pro even though your hand might be shaking 😂
Btw, I have learned that tracking is actually easier with a higher sensitivity while static is going to be easier on lower. Thats because its easier to react to moving targets on high. But I guess thats mainly for pure tracking and this map is dynamic clicking so lower would still be king. Hm.
from the professional aim training community, tracking IS easier with a higher sensitivity. but you also have to learn smooth mouse movement. that being said, tracking slow moving targets without much travel distance is probably still easier on a lower sensitivity.
That's only true for relatively large objects that move unpredictably in a game like quake or apex, you have to have a slow sens compared to other games to track the very small heads without jumping on and off a lot
I believe the reason his aim was shaky and bad for tracking was his mouse grip as it was really awkward and probably should be a palm grip because he was pretty low sens.
That’s good I will try these drills and see if they work for me. Also what is your opinion on aim trainers like aim labs and if there better or worse than workshop maps.?
@@pienixcs I usually just do aim trainers but I tried the drills in this video and only after using it once I feel myself being more comfortable on my new sens and being way more consistent when hitting shots especialy heads I also found out my weaknesses that I need to work on thanks for this.
