The Little Things DONK Does That YOU Don't in CS2

I am incredibly late to the Donk party, but I thought it would be very interesting to see how he plays FACEIT games rather than pro matches. In this analysis, I wanted to uncover the little things - the details - that could help explain his dominance.

[@kudoskismet8262]

One of the best donk replays I’ve seen. Straight to the point with helpful tips on how to improve without putting out a 45 minute demo review for a match that took 28 minutes.

[@WilsonCS2]

Thank you man!:)

[@kentuckywinner]

you should make a video about niko's crosshair placement in his good games vs his bad games

[@wobase]

Honestly great idea

[@mascagny]

yeah. Please do that! we need more analysis. And game sense stuff!

[@TwistedFireX]

I started using Donk’s crab walk in the opposite direction you peek when I watched how he played. I’ve also experienced better success with that technique.

[@mcelroycs]

one thing about the schmovement is don't let the opponent hit you first so you won't get that aimpunch and not schmoving more

[@TerenceChiII]

This kind of overview of a players strengths is awesome, would love to see more.

[@mrwalter1049]

Interesting. Would love to see some others like NiKo, ZyWoO. Maybe some lurkers like ropz or Jimpphat. IGLs would be cool too, like what do they actually do in random PUGs where they aren't necessarily calling anything at all.

[@WilsonCS2]

Thank you Walter! You got it:)

4:11 crouch walking has the same accuracy as being crouched (better than standing) because you are still moving in the weapon's deadzone

[@therealthev]

Tbf I understand what he means, technically the gun accuracy is the same but youre probably gonna have a harder time spraying down someone on long crouch walking than just standing/crouching

[@targitausrithux2320]

[@Grimmjow251]

This was so fricking well made. Wilson you gotta do more breakdowns of pro players in pug matches like this!

[@chrisevans6293]

This is by far my favorite video you've ever made. I practiced the donk crouch strafe back thing in dm right away as well and got 3-4 kills straight away. Will definitely be utilizing this new skill so thanks!

[@IIIDzire]

More videos like this please! I love these type of videos and also watch them from other channels but this one was really informative and to the point. Other channels often try to point out too many things that make it hard to remember what I actually learned but this video didn’t. You pointed out the main big things which is great!

[@Do_Worrk]

This was insanely helpful.... please turn this into a series🤝

[@kazuya142]

this is the best demo review video I've ever seen, by applying these concepts in our own, i think it'll make self demo reviewing much more productive. Very good work!!!!

[@duquefranklintrouble6635]

I liked that you reviewd a faceit game and kept it simple

[@jjmohr2595]

Great stuff man. I think a video on Ropz doing his thing being a god tier lurker would be pretty cool if you wanted an idea of another video you could do.

[@leekosuave7816]

Awesome breakdown and analysis Wilson, would love more of these in the future. Keep it up dude!

[@IINEXUSGAMERII]

I'm surprised donk is one of the first to utilise that mid-fight movement so effectively. Feels like every time I jump into a dm with pros nearly all of them crouch spray during fights but never really do it in their matches the same way donk does. I always talked about how effective crouch spraying while moving is so it's kind of satisfying seeing that I wasn't talking complete nonsense XD

[@Astrobay13]

Best demo analysis ive seen so far. Showing only the relevant part and bundling by topic instead of going chronologically is really big

[@SinisterCS]

Great video :) Would love to see a video about frozen or ropz next 😍

[@oscarhuang6552]

I heard about a theory about donk's peeking movement was because he used to play EU faceit with 90+pings in his hometown so he has to constantly play in peeking style

Perfect gameplay breakdown

[@toxXDD]

relatively new to the game (~175hours) and have been trying this out recently, my headshot percentage has been lower and sprays have been weirder, but im consistently having more kills. Though with this i feel like ive also whiffed worse. Do you reccommend trying to implement this right now or just focus on counter strafing and getting all the cs basics down first?

[@therunnerupx50]

Great vid. No shade to pro players, but this is way better than any breakdowns I've seen them do.

[@introXversion]

There’s so many players in the 15-20k rank pool that tried to tell me that my intentionally unpredictable playstyle meant I was ‘bad’ at the game, and this video reminded me of how objectively wrong they were, and how much I laughed at their position on the scoreboard compared to mine 😂

[@streeterrr]

nice video, would love to see more like this

[@druecifer]

awesome detailed and easy to understand video thanks

[@cappslock]

Since it wasn't mentioned, Crouch walking DOES NOT affect recoil in the sense you'd think, it only changes your crosshair placement relative to your target (i.e. the ops head). Moving left and right has no bearing on recoil or shot pattern relative to the amount moved. If you crouch walk to the left while firing, your aim only has to compensate for your relative movement. Crouch walking doesn't inherently make your accuracy poor, it just throws one-more, small variable into the mix

[@Night.League]

Incredible breakdown, good content

[@jangdi.]

He reacts faster, and doesnt afraid. His character affects his playstyle. A lot. He young, quick and restless, doesnt care about dying, he just want to win. There isnt much feelings in his style. He plays like a calculated robot. Effective and no need for sentimental.

[@aaron-kirk]

this was great. much love

[@TheComoletti]

I play a lot like him. except im older and slower. and one thing I can say is to not copy what he does and the movements, but put yourself in your enemy's shoes. Think about what you would do if you were in their shoes and then do the opposite to counterbalance their flow. You will know you are doing it right when you notice people calling you a wallhacker more often.
