I wouldn’t discredit your personality in your videos that heavily, Kneel. There are a bunch of CS2 tutorial videos on all sorts of stuff, but people watch your content for the way you describe things, how you present information, your editing, and everything else that makes your videos unique to this channel. That’s personality. Building off a trend or established idea is great, but only gets you so far. It’s the rest of it that counts. As they say, “ideas are worthless. Execution is everything.”
@@kneel69just want to piggy back on the comment, first video I’ve ever seen from you and smiled/chuckled multiple times while learning how to peek. Subbed!
For the outro - do what you want it’s your own channel! However from my perspective you are a naturally entertaining creator through editing/inputting personality into videos, so I’m all for those types of videos.
I've been playing counter strike for about 11 years, and I've never bothered to learn how to peek properly. I focused all my energy on smoke lineups, recoil control, and game sense. With my natural ability to aim, I thought I had everything covered, but I never really had much fun playing the game. The other day, I redownloaded it with the goal of learning how to peek. Eventually, when I understood how to do it, I had the most fun I've ever had playing counter strike! I'm still surprised how much fun this game can be after learning how to peek. My favorite is swigging fast and wide!
Fantastic tips as always man. Dont be afraid to share your life though, there's always other people that are going through it, or have gone through whatever your struggles are. Obviously only if youre comfortable, but it might help to have that sense of community to help when you need it. Cheers
This channel has its own, unique and inimitable vibe. You and Wilson are remembering me that CS can also be enjoyable from time to time. Keep up the good work and take care!
I love your vibe man. You're one of the very few cs yt channels I actually enjoy watching. And honestly the way you explain stuff is just so good and chill. Keep it up man.
this is such a great video, every new player should watch this. this is the kind of video i wish i had when i started playing cs. not what ever everyone else was saying at the time. good stuff boss, youll get to 40k in no time
Amazing videos man. Exactly what was needed in the CS2 community :)) I like watching your vids because you put real effort and actually i watch them because of you. You are funny but to the point. A natural.
I've been super anxious as well the last week or two and you just mentioning it has helped a lot. On the note about making videos about yourself, I'd love that.
There still are prefire maps for free, I recommend pracc, after playing dm for 60 min which is a good warm up/aim training and you'll get free access to for example prefire maps for 2 days and then need to do 60 min to unlock again
It always surprises me when I see the viewer count, the quality of the content always exceeds this level of subs you’re on. If CS2 wasn’t a dead game right now you’d surely be a top 5 CS tube. Great Work ❤
Man, ur awesome! I absolutely love ur voice and general style of making videos, keep it up mate. On a totally different point, I didn't encounter a singular cheater in like 12 games, obvious or otherwise, I watched the demos. (5 Wingman matches: Gn4; 7 Premier matches: ~13-14k Elo; EU, Frankfurt or Amsterdam servers; at all times (so I would encounter people from everywhere around))
on the topic of making videos about kneel rather than about CS topics-- do what you enjoy. this is your space, not ours. if your goal is to entertain, then proving a point or trying to live up to some vague goal does not matter
The editing is actually amazing (you don’t need to prove anything kneel, your content is great and it’s the best when I can catch your livestreams. Don’t be so hard on yourself bro!)
Sometimes life will XANTARES peek you and rip your head off so hard the only thing you can do is to not let it tilt you and take over the game. Or even just laugh at how hard you just got rekt and get back to it in the next round. ❤
Thanks Kneel! Your vids have helped me a lot and your wise words are ringing in my ears in game...like some Yoda sort of mentour "Awper, Peek wide you must" 😋
Love the videos for the information, how you present it and the casual life lesson that comes with it. Do whatever you feel like is authentic and good to you at that moment. Cheers mate 🍻
Yo. Only found your channel the other day. Big up UKCS. What songs/tracks/music playlists are you using in your vids? They sound familiar but they're proper chill. Keep making the awesome vids. Hopefully see you in some games. Sincerely one of the few Welsh CS players 🐑
I appreciate the kind words mate :) To be honest lad I usually just search for game OST's on RU-vid. For example, I use a few from the Zelda games :) And I love that lad Wales is actually a belter!
great vid kneel. One question, does tapping the opposite key while counter-strafing lower the speed as hold both keys? e.i I will open an angle with key A, then instead tap the D, I hold both A + D. Many thanks
hey kneel, I think @ 3:50 you mean 'perpendicular' instead of 'symmetrical', right? Just a little nitpick. Or maybe I missed your point. Great video my friend!
I know Im commenting on This video a bit late but to those of you who read This comment there is a workshop map developer called 5E who has made a prefire map on mirsge and is probably Working on doing it for all the Maps. The map is called 5E_Mirage_Prefire if i remember correctly. You’re welcome
I'm kinda down with the pinned comment, if I'm here it's not becuz all of the content is what i need, it's becuz of your personality, carin bout your subscribers feels good to me, answering every single comment, it's just heartwarming ❤️
I didnt get it if you had anxiety over something specific or in general, but i have GAD, panic attack syndrome, OCD and just a shit ton of anxiety overall making life barely livable. i dont care so much about all the diagnosis the doctors put on me, i just want to get back to where i was and be myself again so freakin bad, this feels like a nightmare. would never in my life belive things can just turn out to be like this, cuz u know.. im not that guy that has always been afraid of stuff or so. i was just a regular dude with some badass times in betwen, and now i feel like a 3yr old baby needing my parents and im 27 and have kids myself now...
I understand when you say ‘would never in my life believe things can just turn out to be like this’. It’s can hit home when you look back at the past few years or decades mate! It’s like a self reflection but since it’s carried out in a negative mindset, it can rly bring yourself down. But much like a slow decline, you can make a slow incline, and when you look back a couple years from now, you’ll be in a positive mindset and you can feel proud of how far you’ve come mate. You’ve got this in the bag lad!!
@@kneel69 Thank you mate, have u had any anxiety problems? I forgot to mention health anxiety is my worst problem, and i have 3628199 symptoms to worry about, thats what ruining my recovery..
@@ed51551 to be honest mate I’ve never actually been the doctor about that kind of stuff. I don’t think it would help me, but it’s different for everyone. I think the best way to being mentally healthy is different for everyone. I’m just fortunate I found that early in life with creativity and self improvement (in cs haha), so it’s always kind of steered me in the right direction.
nothing new for me personally, but I think the stick figure guys were great and they should've had more screentime :) edit: and higher pay while we're at it
im late on the video but i want to mention that you didnt speak about peekers advantage more in depth there is one case where you can peek the peeker first if you know hes pushing or something like that.
