    order to make yourself the most
  • 00:00:06
    well-rounded player possible and give
  • 00:00:08
    yourself a chance to make it within this
  • 00:00:10
    game I don't care if you guys are brand
  • 00:00:12
    new to Counterstrike you've been playing
  • 00:00:14
    this game for you know a few thousand
  • 00:00:16
    hours or this game has been your life
  • 00:00:17
    over the past decade or maybe decades if
  • 00:00:20
    you're an old school player today you're
  • 00:00:21
    going to learn something new you're
  • 00:00:22
    going to understand what you need to do
  • 00:00:24
    to game plan and to actually make it
  • 00:00:26
    inside of this scene so without further
  • 00:00:28
    Ado let's go ahead and get into the
  • 00:00:29
    video guys one thing that we need to
  • 00:00:31
    understand and this is something that I
  • 00:00:33
    have honestly struggled with as a player
  • 00:00:34
    and why I want to make this video
  • 00:00:36
    because this is not just for you this is
  • 00:00:37
    for me as well is guys we need to
  • 00:00:40
    identify our weaknesses and strengths as
  • 00:00:43
    a player but also just as a person in
  • 00:00:46
    general every single one of you watching
  • 00:00:48
    this video is somebody completely
  • 00:00:50
    different this video gets 500 views
  • 00:00:52
    2,000 views doesn't matter every single
  • 00:00:54
    one of you guys will be a brand new
  • 00:00:55
    human a brand new person and nothing is
  • 00:00:57
    going to be the same for all of us so
  • 00:00:59
    with that being said you need to figure
  • 00:01:01
    out who am I how you are as a person and
  • 00:01:05
    a player goes hand in hand are you an
  • 00:01:07
    aggressive person are you a passive
  • 00:01:08
    person are you loud are you maybe
  • 00:01:10
    obnoxious right so identifying what type
  • 00:01:12
    of person we are and and how we can move
  • 00:01:15
    forward with that is so important to
  • 00:01:17
    understanding what we need to do in in
  • 00:01:19
    order to actually improve oursel and to
  • 00:01:21
    grow inside of the game for too long
  • 00:01:23
    inside of Cs in my career I have sat
  • 00:01:26
    there and only tried to develop my
  • 00:01:27
    strengths right and of course I haven't
  • 00:01:29
    just sit there and ignored my weaknesses
  • 00:01:31
    but I for sure have neglected actually
  • 00:01:33
    improving them and making sure that
  • 00:01:35
    they're they're not as bad weaknesses as
  • 00:01:37
    they should be I've been gone for 40
  • 00:01:38
    days and I've learned a lot about myself
  • 00:01:40
    traveling the world and one thing that
  • 00:01:42
    I've come to realize with cs you know in
  • 00:01:45
    in just life in general but specifically
  • 00:01:46
    for CS is that these weaknesses don't
  • 00:01:50
    actually need to be a bad thing these
  • 00:01:52
    weaknesses are showing us hey if you
  • 00:01:54
    just get better at this you will become
  • 00:01:56
    a better player so many of us want to
  • 00:01:58
    just improve our strength some of are
  • 00:02:00
    really good at aiming so we'll sit there
  • 00:02:01
    and go I want to aim I want to aim
  • 00:02:03
    better I want to do this right I'm going
  • 00:02:04
    to DM for a th kills and I'm going to
  • 00:02:06
    feel good about myself and I'm going to
  • 00:02:08
    be so good sure you're great at aiming
  • 00:02:10
    don't neglect that don't don't get rid
  • 00:02:11
    of that but why are we not why are we
  • 00:02:13
    hardcore focusing on our strength
  • 00:02:15
    instead of also making sure that we're a
  • 00:02:17
    more well-rounded player and developing
  • 00:02:19
    our nades right and I use that as an
  • 00:02:21
    example because that's something that I
  • 00:02:22
    feel like I really struggle with I'll
  • 00:02:24
    sit there and be like I don't need to
  • 00:02:25
    learn those nades you know somebody else
  • 00:02:27
    will and then it makes me scared to play
  • 00:02:29
    like you know high stakes games high
  • 00:02:31
    level games because if someone's like
  • 00:02:32
    hey throw this piece of UIL I'll be like
  • 00:02:35
    uh you know about that I I don't know
  • 00:02:37
    this right we are all completely
  • 00:02:39
    different players and I hope that me
  • 00:02:40
    being honest with you guys with my
  • 00:02:42
    weaknesses things that I need to improve
  • 00:02:44
    on can help you understand that this
  • 00:02:45
    isn't something you need to shy away
  • 00:02:46
    from this isn't something you need to
  • 00:02:48
    hide it's okay to be weak at something
  • 00:02:50
    right if you were perfect you'd be
  • 00:02:51
    better than Don you'd be the greatest
  • 00:02:53
    player in the game so so important to
  • 00:02:55
    realize that uh I'm going to give you a
  • 00:02:57
    game plan going forward on how you can
  • 00:02:59
    actually improve on these things and
  • 00:03:00
    make sure that they're not just
  • 00:03:01
    weaknesses forever uh but first I have
  • 00:03:03
    to give you a message about how to get
  • 00:03:04
    the greatest skins inside a
  • 00:03:05
    Counterstrike 2 thank you to the sponsor
  • 00:03:07
    of today's video skins monkey they are
  • 00:03:10
    one of the greatest and easiest to use
  • 00:03:13
    CS2 trading sites out there you can swap
  • 00:03:15
    out the Skins you do not like for brand

  • 00:03:21

  • 00:03:24

    that you can buy skins for so much

  • 00:03:41
    bonus when clicking the link in the
  • 00:03:43
    description with that being said with us
  • 00:03:45
    being able to identify what our
  • 00:03:47
    weaknesses are and if we're being honest
  • 00:03:49
    with oursel that's already half the
  • 00:03:51
    battle because if you can sit there and
  • 00:03:53
    understand that you're not perfect that
  • 00:03:54
    you that you're not just totally great
  • 00:03:56
    it's going to allow you the room and the
  • 00:03:59
    freedom to actually change yourself as a
  • 00:04:01
    player and also change your life so
  • 00:04:04
    let's use my
  • 00:04:05
    example I suck at nades sometimes right
  • 00:04:07
    obviously I'm better than the average
  • 00:04:09
    player obviously that's fine but if I'm
  • 00:04:10
    looking at myself compared to tier one
  • 00:04:12
    Pros to other people at my level that is
  • 00:04:14
    definitely something I feel as a
  • 00:04:15
    weakness and maybe that's because my
  • 00:04:17
    role as an oper right uh my go my my job
  • 00:04:20
    my goal is to farm for myself to get
  • 00:04:22
    kills for my team to set myself up
  • 00:04:23
    mostly with positioning right so maybe
  • 00:04:25
    my role has led to a lot of the the
  • 00:04:27
    problems in that way doesn't matter
  • 00:04:29
    right so so for me what I need to do
  • 00:04:31
    going forward instead of just sitting
  • 00:04:33
    there and going okay let's do our aim
  • 00:04:35
    butts let's do our refrag let's do all
  • 00:04:36
    that sure we can still Implement that
  • 00:04:38
    but it's like hey man if if I really
  • 00:04:40
    don't have the fundamentals down um and
  • 00:04:42
    this is actually something I completely
  • 00:04:43
    forgot for being away for so long it's
  • 00:04:46
    like hey how do I still not know a
  • 00:04:48
    window smoke that's not the spawn smokes
  • 00:04:50
    I knew the spawn smokes but the the one
  • 00:04:52
    that was over here I was like it's so
  • 00:04:53
    weird pressing D and jumping here learn
  • 00:04:55
    with me right now I literally first day
  • 00:04:57
    I got back I was like this is ridiculous
  • 00:04:58
    I'm literally Ben in FPL top three on
  • 00:05:01
    face it travel the world playing this
  • 00:05:02
    game learn the smoke again right CU they
  • 00:05:04
    always change they always do these
  • 00:05:05
    things so you got to stay up with the
  • 00:05:06
    meta you literally just get in this
  • 00:05:08
    corner right here hold D move hold d w
  • 00:05:14
    and jump throw or maybe just D see I I
  • 00:05:16
    might have mess up guys I might have
  • 00:05:18
    mess
  • 00:05:19
    up guys this is the weakness this is
  • 00:05:22
    what I mean and this why you don't do
  • 00:05:23
    things live but anyways you come here
  • 00:05:25
    you get in this corner hold D aim at the
  • 00:05:27
    corner and then jump throw it's that
  • 00:05:28
    easy see and and so you're going to mess
  • 00:05:30
    up you're going to make mistakes we're
  • 00:05:31
    not cutting this out of the video how
  • 00:05:33
    many YouTubers how many players are
  • 00:05:34
    going to keep this in see this the less
  • 00:05:38
    we can do this and the more we can do
  • 00:05:39
    this it makes us a better player it
  • 00:05:41
    literally is growth that is progress
  • 00:05:44
    right there so the fact that we want to
  • 00:05:46
    run from our weaknesses we want to hide
  • 00:05:47
    them we don't want to tell anybody we're
  • 00:05:49
    scared our ego hurts if we think we're
  • 00:05:51
    worse player than we are it is
  • 00:05:54
    ridiculous guys you can hold me to this
  • 00:05:56
    but if you are sitting there and you are
  • 00:05:59
    scared of your your weakness if you're
  • 00:06:00
    scared of getting called out in game if
  • 00:06:01
    you're scared of people sitting there
  • 00:06:03
    and going bro you suck at this you're
  • 00:06:05
    bad at this that is pathetic and and I'm
  • 00:06:08
    saying this for me guys this this is
  • 00:06:09
    what I'm saying for me do better learn
  • 00:06:12
    and understand that it's it's a process
  • 00:06:14
    and if you can't sit there and actually
  • 00:06:16
    understand that you suck at certain
  • 00:06:17
    things or that you need to improve then
  • 00:06:19
    you're you're never going to improve
  • 00:06:20
    you're never going to get better but let
  • 00:06:22
    those people and you know whether they
  • 00:06:23
    be randoms in your games people you know
  • 00:06:25
    people you hate I don't care let those
  • 00:06:27
    people sit there y'all let you say that
  • 00:06:29
    understand that this is just fuel to
  • 00:06:31
    make you better this is fuel to
  • 00:06:32
    literally sit there and change yourself
  • 00:06:34
    if someone is sitting there and
  • 00:06:35
    screaming at you for not knowing a
  • 00:06:36
    mirage window smoke cool go learn it
  • 00:06:40
    like you know do better that doesn't
  • 00:06:41
    mean that I condone them screaming at
  • 00:06:43
    you that you know they they need to sit
  • 00:06:45
    there and you know demean you and do all
  • 00:06:47
    these things hold your ground and stuff
  • 00:06:48
    but like don't sit there and be average
  • 00:06:51
    don't sit there and be something that
  • 00:06:52
    you're not learn that smoke you know it
  • 00:06:55
    it takes like 2 minutes now when we get
  • 00:06:57
    into things like aim and positioning and
  • 00:06:59
    game sense yes I understand that is a
  • 00:07:02
    different Beast that is a lot harder to
  • 00:07:03
    develop but guys with tools like refrag
  • 00:07:06
    obviously all the Deathmatch servers out
  • 00:07:07
    there there is so many ways we can
  • 00:07:09
    improve there's so many things that we
  • 00:07:10
    can do um for that kind of thing and you
  • 00:07:12
    know there's no right answer some pros
  • 00:07:14
    are good at Deathmatch some pros like to
  • 00:07:16
    just Aimbot um but as long as you are
  • 00:07:19
    actually having a purpose when you're
  • 00:07:20
    doing those things and you're not just
  • 00:07:21
    mindlessly running around that is going
  • 00:07:23
    to be so beneficial to you because that
  • 00:07:25
    is a difference I I was the player that
  • 00:07:26
    did like 18,000 Aimbot kills I'm not
  • 00:07:29
    kidding when I was younger 18,000 Aimbot
  • 00:07:30
    kills that didn't make me better that
  • 00:07:33
    training is not good if anything that's
  • 00:07:35
    actually bad for your your health with
  • 00:07:36
    your hands and your wrist and everything
  • 00:07:38
    but um have have a purpose have a plan
  • 00:07:40
    when you're doing it and you know don't
  • 00:07:42
    overdo it we just made a video on taking
  • 00:07:43
    a break in CS and how it can give you
  • 00:07:45
    fresh perspective fresh inspiration it's
  • 00:07:48
    totally true um so I understand that
  • 00:07:50
    aiming and game sense and all that is
  • 00:07:52
    not as simple as nades but you know if
  • 00:07:54
    that's your weakness don't run away from
  • 00:07:56
    it actually go and do something about it
  • 00:07:58
    if you're the player that's like I hate
  • 00:07:59
    aim training I hate doing then do it do
  • 00:08:01
    it and have a purpose understand that if
  • 00:08:03
    you're going to be putting in so much
  • 00:08:04
    time to this game it doesn't matter if
  • 00:08:06
    that sucks right it sucks but you know
  • 00:08:08
    maybe you're actually going to enjoy the
  • 00:08:09
    process it's just like someone who wants
  • 00:08:11
    to get muscles and they're like you know
  • 00:08:13
    again I'm saying this for me it's like
  • 00:08:14
    oh I hate lifting way it's so hard it's
  • 00:08:16
    so boring okay then you're you're never
  • 00:08:18
    going to have muscle right so when you
  • 00:08:20
    look at it that way it's very simple on
  • 00:08:22
    why we are underperforming why we're not
  • 00:08:23
    succeeding and I understand that's way
  • 00:08:25
    easier said than done um and there's so
  • 00:08:27
    many different nades scenarios aim
  • 00:08:28
    training all the stuff uh but guys truly
  • 00:08:31
    be better be great have the uh
  • 00:08:34
    motivation to actually change those
