Ever since I started trying to get better at counter-strike, I’ve been intrigued by the idea of working with a coach. But I always felt like it wouldn’t be worth it for a lower skilled player like myself. Like won’t I just get better if I play more? Isn’t it kind of embarrassing to spend money on something I actively suck at? I’m not sure why exactly I’ve made these judgments. After all, hiring a coach or tutor is an accepted practice for novices in all sorts of hobbies and activities - so why not competitive video games? After waffling for a bit, I decided it would be easier to justify this to myself by making content out of it, so here we are.

pienix sounds like your dad when you're holding the flashlight

nice to see you uploads more video with pienics

[@bellabear653]

Practicing death Match with a deagle has been really helpful. As the players are not bots so this helps with accuracy.

[@help1ng316]

Building confidence to sometimes "just peek" really helps with countering 4/5 man T executes, the goal isn't too get an ace but to drop 1 and maybe if you have good aim or gamesense that day you get 1 more or some damage, this should be enough to allow fellow CT to retake the site. Had to grind from about 9k to now 15k and my #1 complaint about teammates is not taking the fight on THEIR terms and often letting enemies util/peek you. Countering the 5 man tec-9/mac-10 rounds is super important in non-5-stack premier.

Damn u guys are so cute not trying to brag but makes me remember watching videos like those and being in that elo sooooo cute😂

[@Messi-Only]

i solo queue a lot and i just start practicing hs only as soon as it’s 5-0 or 0-5 lol

[@YouareDetained42069]

@@screamingmute8256 grow up a bit huh 🤣

[@bellabear653]

@@screamingmute8256 you would be mad to care about elo right now. Everyone I know is losing a lot due to spin bots in prem and wallers with aim bot. The game is a mess.

[@Mintikasp]

Your videos have been, and will always be my favourite! :D I feel personally attacked by what Pienix says as I am guilty of so many of the things he picks you up on lol! Keep doing what you're doing, I love the content x

[@joucool88]

Hello man. This videos are great and very helpful . It's good to see you improving. I wonder what faceit and premier elo you are now? I see level 4 on the video but it seems you better than this no? Cheers

[@darkkinect3360]

great video

[@Jonualike]

this dude is a good coach

[@Luggruff]

Whenever I feel like my aim is bad for the day, I always jump into deathmatch and deagle only. If I play casual, I simply just get the deagle the first rounds and I'm right back hitting those shots

[@mercy20k22]

This was a cool video. Now I just need to get my teammates to want to play Anubis with me lol.

[@jacobtraydon2002]

What elo are you on Faceit? How much have you improved from his coaching? I just had a session with him yesterday and I quite enjoyed his guidance

[@krisztianretfalvi2103]

The nade lineup you are doing on mid isn't bad as they can boost there. Try the same lineup with a molly instead.

[@andyabel3072]

You have a sitting duck complex because of wall hacks!! I feel the same way.

[@marchix3694]

If you play faceit you are good to go!

[@reposerl3506]

First ;). Love the video's as always

[@Azd1r.3358.]

Where more vids cuh

[@xXxC0nSUm3rXxX1337]

I always tell you to hold that mid smoke on anubis mid remember

[@lepape74374374374]

Maybe this player was simply conditionned by too many matches on premiere matchmaking On premiere, people on the other side are sooo incredibly lucky when you watch a smoke, for some mysterious reason.

[@darkomitrovic5152]

Who even is this guy... He tells him to hold mid on an angle where it's a common spam spot and he even asks him ''what if they counter spam'' and he says ''well don't spam''. Like that's a common spam spot regardless if you spammed the smoke or not. Sure he has good points, but a lot of those points are ''Bro advice''

[@fishfast7197]

is it just me or does this guy seem like a bad coach?

[@filipstojkovic2710]

Not really, check their videos he is giving very good tips and he is trying to make him more confident, if u smoke something they cant see you but its not a wall they can push the smoke btw the bad thing is that he wants to teach him everything fast and i dont kbow much much time they have with coaching

[@dilach41]

yes its just you

[@jayocaine2946]

Nope, not just you.

[@TheFightConnoisseur]

He’s definitely not a bad coach, but not everybody would mesh well with his coaching style. He is very blunt and tells you everything you’re doing wrong while also providing valuable information/knowledge, others may prefer a bit softer coaching where the coach tries to build you up more. Personally I like his rougher coaching style a lot, reminds me of my wrestling coach lol.
