Since I'm newb, should I join one of these custom leagues or is mm good enough for me?
I'm silver 4 atm.

MM is good enough and will probably be more enjoyable as you'll get flamed on ESEA, faceit or CEVO. You have lots of things to focus on when it comes to your mechanics, which you can even do in DM or aim maps :p

Cause i`m bored.... A few days ago, Razer pushed out an update for their Razer Synapse Tool and added a new heatmap feature for games.
This is mine for CS:GO: (25k hits registered for cs overall)

+ Show Spoiler +
[image loading]



- i move slightly less backward then forward/left/right
- i buy grenades quite often (F3 buyscript)
- looks like i favor planting the bomb (5) over defusing (E) it
- Running with scissors (1)
- Can`t decide wich grenade i choose (4)
- i can`t find a good reason why i would ever use the numpad o.O
- i jump slightly more than i walk (shift) or crouch


It`s quite interesting to see, but vague too.

Edit: One game is 3,4k ~ 4,0k. So ~7 games

That's cool! 25k keyboard hits is insane, was that just one comp game?

Quick question, after Adren's recent video about T default positions on D2, I've tried to lurk a bit more. Several times in my games yesterday, I was behind the boxes in upper dark (tunnels), just waiting quietly while my teammates took A. Then I often got very easy kills when CTs where rotating after the bomb was planted and rushed too much to check corners.

This seems like a good way to play but I also got 'criticism' from my teammates (the russians that never said anything suddenly can scream into their mics) for not helping out. So what do you do/recommend in solo-queue? Be tactical and lurk or just screw it?

Depends on the team. If you get a team of folks where someone is calling out a general strat and people are actually following it, then you should probably work with them. If the strat calling is shit and isn't being followed by anyone else, then lurk away I'd say.

Well I just played a faceit game, and two of our guys seemed to be silver or gold at best. So to whoever asked, I suppose you can play faceit, just be prepared for harsh criticism or straight up flame. I tried to give him advice but he didn't listen to shit and just ran around the map lagging like a headless chicken, buying nothing on ecos and SMGs on gunrounds x)

Lurking is fine imo as long as you're not being a dumbass and lurking on the opposite side of the map where you'll be unable to do anything useful (e.g. lurking long while bomb is B) or not helping your team when they need you. (An example being if you lurked in that lowers spot while your team pushed B 2v2 when you could have helped take it 3v2 easily.)

As long as you're using your head its never a bad thing to do :| Like most things :D

It depends on your team, plus you can mix it up. Like if you do an A push, notice they rotate really quickly, do the same the following round but have someone lurk in B tuns. Chances are they'll rotate quickly again knife in hand. But chances are also that your team is going to play MM T side (meaning play picks without peeking or challenging), so CTs won't move and lurking will be useless :D

Yeah. Depends on your team. If they can make certain plays to force rotates, then yes your lurks will be more effective. But if your team fails to get entries, and die, well you just look retarded because you're in the middle of nowhere as the last person alive.

Lurking also makes you look bad (in MM) in a sense that people get the feeling you just want to kill whore it up by baiting your teammates etc. But don't worry too much, everyone else in MM is like that too.

No, they are not. Don't be that guy who is the last guy alive and get all the kills but lose the round for the team every round.

dafuq? I never really got the kami skin. It looks like shapes and random shit painted on a pistol. Or did I never looked at it enough? But in terms of eating, I would suggest orangepeel ;-)

That's my favorite five seven skin too. I used to have the fowl play one but I dunno, I just really like the Kami. But now that the CZ has been sorta un-nerfed, I'm back to my precious Victoria :D

Thats not really lurking, thats baiting. If you wanna lurk while your teammates take A you should sit lower tunnels or top mid, as it lets you cut off the people flanking cat and gives you control of the map, making it easier for your teammates to hold A post plant. If you're sitting in upper tunnels you're basically letting your teammates get flanked and not getting any useful knowledge or making any plays. You're just playing for a free kill basically. Just like on inferno if your teammates are taking B you can lurk alt mid and walk up mid to arch as your teammates are executing and try to cut off rotates from A, and flank ct spawn as they are retaking.

Lurking is the hardest role to play because it requires a lot of game sense, good aim, and perfect timing. It can easily be misjudged for baiting if done wrong, but it does offer a lot of kills.

I had pretty bad experiences with faceit when i tried it something like half a year ago.
It was really hard to actually start a game with the amount of leavers and even if you did start the game most of those wouldnt finish at 5vs5 or reach 16 rounds. Plus, the level range in the games was even wider than on MM.

Maybe ill give it another try, I kind of want to find a team, but I dunno if im actually playing enough for that to happen.
