i’ve had losses that are more enjoyable than wins. it really just depends on how my teammates behave.

Yea its true when randoms have mic and speak english and they r funny and not toxic i dont care if i lose or win. Everyone on team is having fun (making jokes) and not focusing and u can just add each other and play more focused

[@askmeaboutsugma]

My favorite is when we’re getting stomped so we try some wild and sometimes downright stupid strats and we wind up turning the game around. I’ve had PP-Bizon aces that turned the tide of a match.

[@Alex-zh3dq]

These are all really, really good. When I was younger I used to think that "taking a break" was counterproductive to improving at games but now I realize I was just ignoring the mental part. Grinding might be the way to improve mechanics but it sucks out all motivation and creative thinking. Sometimes less is more ;)

[@quincygaming9529]

I always find I play better after coming back from a break. After getting the rust off of course

[@leeonardodienfield402]

I remember years ago when I was first learning how to play guitar I'd work on something which seems simple now like strumming for hours and barely make progress. Sometimes I even backtracked or felt like I literally forgot everything I had learned lol. Put it down in frustration for a few days and the next time I tried to do it, it's like the muscle memory needed time to build and my brain to process it because it just worked. That little moment was the motivator to keep playing and when I wasn't having fun or felt that same "backtracking" creeping it, I stop. I'm sure there's some science behind it if most people learn like this. Wish I figured it out earlier! Smart practice is the way to go, not grinding until you demoralize yourself. CS (and playing music) is supposed to be fun

[@gijskramer1702]

Ever since i started playing ones or twice a week instead of every day i gained 3 ranks... in 4 months

[@V-95K]

Exactly, I was playing like 4-5 16 rounds games a day and was getting worse with time, lost motivation and abandoned the game for few months. But now I’m playing maximum 2 games a day and I’m getting much better and want more.

[@Bru7aLis]

Not gonna lie, I wasn't expecting it, but for me this is voo's best video. I don't care about ranks that much, but I agree with everything said in this video. All great points. If you have a friend who easily gets annoyed, you should send them this video. I do think big part of the communication/toxicity problem is the average age of the players. You are required to be of a certain age in order to be able to drink, vote, drive. etc. Younger people have less experience and they don't realise that their negativity will only make the situation worse. Also, another great thing that voo mentions in other videos is that focusing on winning is meaningless by itself. You should focus on improving. If you are really improving and spend the needed time, ranking up will come.

[@omster_]

The average age of a CSGO player is likely between 16-20, people are just the way they are because of how they grew up or are just manchildren online

[@jawnie16]

Game has inters and the rank skill gap doesn’t exist it’s all a blur unless ur master or above, so it’s way more based off on luck of what teammates you get

[@benzbubblecat]

What I learned from voo is to get global you have to get the fuck out of NA.

[@NeckYourself]

Amen. Went from silver 2 to LEM (about to hit supreme at the time of this comment) playing only EU. Less cheaters, more elo. EU is so fucking refreshing.

[@nicksters6629]

And australia

[@alfredofernandezalvarez8856]

Very good video. Last advice should also lead to another: play not because you want to rank up but because you genuinely love the game. Completely support the idea of playing regularly instead of playing for longer hours less often: sustained effort over time is the only serious way of getting better in my experience. About the cheaters, after 3 years of storing demos in the manager, I learnt to expect that 1/10 of my games (Western Europe) will have a cheater in it. Usually it took from one to several months until the particular player got banned. It also helped me when I started storing my game data and running my own analyses. In particular I used damage per round as an indicator of performance because it is a continuous variable. When you know that, for example, there is 10% probability that you will end up with 140+ average damage per round or a 10% probability that you will end up with 40- ADR (and a general understanding of your own normal curve), it helps you see where you actually are in terms of skill and what expectations of improvement you should have realistically (and reduces the pressure). It helped me focus as well on reviewing only the outlier demos to see what is going on in matches where I performed exceedingly well or extremely bad. I recommend against relying on black box tools that compares only your average values versus the average value of your rank: you can't expect an accurate understanding of the repetitive process of matchmaking games unless you take variability (i.e. deviation) into account. In short: math in fun, use it in CSGO.

[@nts1411]

from my experience, i ranked up faster when i didnt care about my rank or elo. when you think about your match being a rankup game or when you look up the enemys amount of elo on faceit, it almost always gets into your head and you play different in a bad way. try to be the nicest teammate and the best player in every match and you will find success.

[@lukasklupfel2927]

Dont listen to this dude. In order to rank up you have to call cheats every time you get killed with a sick flickshot and flame your teammates in voice chat for being retarded noobs and baiters. And dont forget to teamflash or stand in their mollies to get them kicked. Also occasionally write your teammates position and hp in All-chat when they're in a clutch situation. That's the best way to rank up and improve in my opinion and it'll help your teammates improve faster as well as you constructively point out their mistakes to them. ;)

[@DOSEDKID]

bro cracked the code right here, ty vv much.

[@grqfes]

"try to be the best player in every match" as opposed to trying to be the most average player? the worst?

[@chillinchili5683]

I only found you recently, but man... I love your attitude! I often feel the same and sometimes I can't stand my mate who I play with the most, because he rages a lot when "he does everything but losing because of the team". You can't blame your team, you are the part of it. And nowadays I don't really care about losing. Yesterday I had a game where we lost 9-7 after making really bad mistakes in the last rounds. BUT! I was proud of myself. I hate Galil, and I clutched 1v4 with 7 HP using the Galil (and AK for last kill). I felt really well. I made my least favourite rifle work under pressure. I don't care if we lost. I feel that I belong in LE-LEM, so if i'm in that rank, I'm feeling good. There's no reason to rank up if I can't play good enough to be in that rank.

[@kenbrake2828]

I’ll take a galil over Famas all day!

[@borispsalman]

galil is basically ak from wish :D

[@iamelite20]

You are really different than most of the cs youtubers , you focus on both mental and mechanics , very cool voo

[@bartterp88]

7:10 Why show this screenshot. That match was winnable. Getting 32 kills might swing the game towards 16-14 instead of 13-16. Games that aren't winnable are games with opponents having all over 80 adr and you have a guy with 35 adr and one with 58 adr. THOSE games aren't winnable. For the rest great vid as always.

[@RaimaNd]

Yeah that was a bad example. I've examples where I did 170+ adr, got nearly 50 kills and we lost 14:16. But even in those games I rather blame myself than my teammates who combined didn't even get as many frags as I got alone. Because there are always a hand full of situations I could've played better and thus lost us a round or more people died than should which hurt us economically etc. But other than that he is right. I've also written a guide about the rank system with way more details tho and he just scratched a bit about it.

[@runar4993]

Yeah I have a 10year account and I am never toxic so I would guess my trustfactor is pretty good but almost every game I play has atleast 1 guy with a lvl 3 or less steam account private or tons of comments of cheats and they topfrag so hard and even if they don't it often happens the cheaters only give wh info until they are really losing I'm supreme now with 1600 hours and when I play I topfrag almost every game I won 12 games in a row where is the uprank ...

[@nishantnayak3792]

I have a 10 year old account too, I encounter a cheater once in every 25 to 30 games. So I would say my trust factor is pretty good.

[@shikiisama]

i usually play a lot more wingman and in 5-6 games at day i meet at least 4 closet cheaters (sometimes semi ragers) everyone with strange steam profiles level 0 or 1 low csgo lvl and sometimes 0 commends private comments and private hours…. cant trust anyone anymore

[@user-dj5ev8ru1f]

To be really honest, I don't have the opportunity to grind the game on a daily basis but I once did that 4 years ago. I never had that idea that soloquing was unfun because teammates were not nice/don't listen/bad/toxic. To me I generaly manage to have a good time most games. And teammates are generally reasonable. Maybe that's just because I'm not very advanced in the game tho, my highest rank was mge.

About that with people calling out a player for hacking to early, is so true. I don't know how many times i've tried to be called an hacker, just because the play was good, or how mad the other team or player are. Sometimes its simply about luck, and other times you actually used you head.

I haven't played csgo in a few years and I haven't played mm in like 5 years but it's good to hear the trust factor finally does its job. MM used to be unplayable 5 years ago as about 90-95% of the games had a cheater in them. There's a lot of proof regarding this too, plenty of interviews from great youtubers with cheaters who said they started because there were so many cheaters, and that they can see people that cheat and when they do they turn on themselves, like a cascade effect.
