With franchising, we would see dynamic gameplay changes like this less often, with most teams simply counter-stratting one another and doing the same executes repeatedly. Soon, viewers would be able to easily predict how a round might unfold before it has even started, leading to a loss in inter

Counter Strike: Global Offensive is one of the most popular shooters of all time. The tactical classic FPS Game still has a massive audience — close to a million players at any given time — despite releasing in 2

It's not common for skins to look good in every condition. Usually, skins will look their best at the Factory New side of the spectrum (or the Battle-Scarred depending on the skin). Unfortunately, people tend to go for either of the extremes, and other conditions are overlooked. This knife is one of the few exceptions. It's simple and minimalist and looks great in all conditions, so if you want to save some money, it doesn't matter too much if you buy a more worn and cheaper vari

Over 20 years ago, Counter-Strike started as a mod for Half-Life (a revolutionary FPS itself) , before becoming a standalone game and developing into the series fans know and love to

The key is to communicate beforehand and alerting your teammates that you are going to flash. Flashing recklessly can be super dangerous, and more often than not, it will lead to you getting killed immediat

Not all of us have $60,000 to spend on knives, of course, so it can be difficult to find nice-looking but cheap ones. You don't need to worry about spending hours searching, though, as that has been done for you. These are not simply the cheapest knives, as that would result in the list being comprised of just Navaja Knife entries. Instead, the list only features good-looking knives priced at $350 or below, as this is cheap by CS:GO standards. The prices used were the steam community market prices at the time of writ

A very common mistake that players make is giving away footstep noises to the opposing team. This not only gives opponents a general idea of your location, but it also buys them enough time to rotate or re-strategize. This could also hinder your own game plan, and it will essentially put your whole team in a bad s

With the sudden success of the Overwatch League and the decision by Activision to start one of their own with Call of Duty , rumors now indicate that Valve is thinking about starting a franchise league for Counter-Strike Global Offensive . We'll explore why this would be a very bad idea and discuss potential alternati

However, when you are loaded with utilities such as Smoke Grenade and Flashbang, you should try to use them before making a Hail Mary run. Dying without using the utilities will not only harm your economy, but you are also donating free goodies to the opposing t

Tekken takes these pains and doubles them with tons of jargon that newcomers have probably never heard. Not only that, but each character has dozens of moves, with some even having over 100 moves on their lists! If learning this for one character isn't intimidating enough, newcomers will quickly find that it's important to understand match-ups and learn other characters' moves in order to play off their opponents. Like many of these games though, it's incredibly rewarding to learn Tekken and climb its ra

It's an all-rounder, landing accurate and deadly long-range shots while maintaining manageable recoil for closer encounters. CT players will notoriously pick these up off of fallen enemies in over their team-specific analog, the M

Running and gunning rarely works, and concentrated pushes through smoke and artillery are critical to winning. This makes communication a key factor, and many newcomers might not know what to say, how to say it, or even what to do in-game. Patience and team play are king, and even small mistakes can lead to a de

Counter Strike ’s most famous assault rifle received this skin in 2013, alongside the release of Operation Bravo. The weapon’s metallic body changes when the skin is equipped. It features a green Aztec serpent, along with bright blue clouds behind

PUBG suffers from the fact that the players who loved it at launch have stuck with it. Normally, this isn't a negative at all, showing that a game can harbor a solid community — but for newcomers, this can be intimidating. Luckily, PUBG lobbies are filled with bots early on, allowing newcomers to get the feel of the game and the unique gunplay. Unfortunately, these bots are spliced with players that never put the game down, so sometimes, newcomers will be deleted by someone who's simply bet

Until it’s a rush round or an economy round, it’s never a bright idea to carry the spike while leading the team from the front. If you die, the bomb basically is now in CT’s territory, and reclaiming it can be a has

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
