For example, when Tyloo started making its way to major tournaments, most teams played a slow and methodical version of Counter-Strike: GO , with the likes of Navi waiting until 30 seconds or less to execute onto a site. Tyloo, being based in Asia, played in a scrim-like style that was customary for their region, moving at a much faster pace than most top teams were used to seeing and catching them off guard. Soon after, you saw legendary teams like Liquid adopting some elements of Tyloo’s playstyle into their own, helping them to eventually earn the top spot as the best t
Before the Berlin Major, CR4ZY’s (formerly Valiance & Co) best accomplishments to date were their victory at United Masters League Season 1 and a 2nd place finish at DreamHack Open Tours 2019 . As a result, CR4ZY would first have to battle it out with established CS:GO teams like Big, Fnatic, Mousesports, North, and Optic, along with ten other teams, having to secure a top-eight spot in order to advance to the next stage of the major qualifier. From there, they would have to secure one of the top two spots at the Europe Minor Championship or face another stage of the qualif
One of these is its CT-sided nature, which is likely what Nuke is most known for. While it was always a popular map despite this reputation, the casual and professional scene responded very positively to the changes. While many would argue it remains largely CT-sided, strong teams, structured or not, have options to be effective on the T-side creating a nice balance. Nuke remains in the Top 3 to 4 most-played maps in both casual and competitive pl
Players have to pick and choose which gun they can buy based on how much money is available to them for that round. With so many different options, it is sometimes difficult to know what to buy and when. Here are the best guns in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive __ in order and why you should be using t

Players who want a decent alternative to Counter-Strike would want to look at Black Squad , a free-to-play multiplayer FPS . Released in 2017, Black Squad seems reminiscent of other F2P FPS titles, with its own share of items in the cash shop. However, while players can whale real money buying guns, skins, and other cosmetics, they can also use in-game currency into buying the same it
Another element of CS:GO that many people tend to overlook is the fact that it would cause many teams to become predictable. Currently, teams must adapt to one another and constantly change the way in which they play depending on the opponent they are facing. When a new team like Crazy comes into the fold, many teams don’t have enough information about them to effectively counter-strat them, leading to upsets and changes in the game’s overall meta. Each team, depending on their home region, has a specific way of playing the game, which helps to keep it fresh and excit
Overpass was first introduced in the Winter Offensive update back on December 18, 2013, as the first Counter-Strike map created specifically for competitive play. Despite this fact, the map saw many growing pains upon its release and for once it wasn’t due to being CT-sided. On release, the map appeared to be very T-sided with pros noting how easy it was to gain map control and execute on to the A bomb s
Created by renowned map creator Chris “Narby” Auty for Counter-strike 2 version 1.1, Inferno would go on to be included in every Counter-Strike game and remain a mainstay of the competitive scene. Since the map has such a legacy it made sense that it would be an ideal candidate for a revision and would get just that on October 13, 2
While all of these seem a bit overwhelming, Siege does help genre newcomers get familiar with skills only pros often learn over time. Due to Siege ‘s mechanics , newcomers can train on precision aiming, listening to odd sounds around them, and the value of quick thinking in high-stress situati
In this game, players will only be able to select one class – “Unclothed.” This will basically be the Deprived class from Dark Souls , just with more sex appeal – if such a thing is even possible! Throughout the game, players will scavenge for new clothing as a member of Hanzo Academy, in a brutal quest to put on something both comfy and not in violation of every dress code known to man. But standing in the way are the girls of the Hebijo Clandestine Girls’ Academy, ready to end your whole career with one swing of a sword. And be warned – your hard-earned clothing is completely breakable. Once it busts, you’ll have to talk to some weirdo with a hammer if you want to stitch it back together again. Or buy a sewing
As one of the oldest and most storied maps in competitive Counter-Strike history, Jo Bieg’s creation in BETA 4.0 of the original Counter-Strike mod has seen iterations and remakes across every single game. Needless to say, Nuke is iconic and up there with the likes of Inferno and Dust II. Due to its reputation, it was the second map to receive a significant revision to not only update the aesthetic but also resolve issues that have persisted for ye
