What DESERVING GLOBAL Looks Like

[@vooCSGO]

gosuacademy.com/voo zetrunightmare said he fluctuates LEM/SMFC so I got a bit confused at times. he was LEM in the game he submitted. also zeio and MLShadow didn't ask to be in the video they just happened to be in the game, and I wouldn't have put them in except in a positive light so please don't say anything negative about them. note: they were both roughly the same faceit rank i would expect for their mm rank, so i don't believe zeio was just smurfing

"His teammate gets knifed and they lose the round; but he could not have played that any better" This was the hardest thing for me. Obviously there's always room for improvement, but sometimes you just have to accept that you can't carry every game. Sometimes you're going to make mistakes and win, other times you can do everything right and still lose. Its just a part of life

[@1Angel.]

For me , he could have just not played the duel on the guy that jumped from stairs, this is some greed duel here... Just let him push the site and try to play him 2v1 instead of just play your 1v1 and eventually leave you teammate in a 1v1 aswell....

[@zezanje1]

no but that is such a shit mindset to have "he couldnt have played it any better", like he clearly could have, by not missing so many shots, at least thinking like that helped me reach global, like just simply never blame games on your teammates unless they are literally trolling you, and dont think someone is cheating for simply being better, practice more than you play comp and you will just keep improving.

[@MxCraven]

You can't even guarantee in a 1v1 game you'll do everything right and win either. Sometimes that's because the enemy is better, and sometimes it's just because you got unlucky. Moving on from that and learning is the hardest part.

[@adams3903]

instead of making him jumpspot in the safest way possible through the small gap in the window, you could just tell him to practice doing the normal jumpspot but showing less of his body by jumping earlier from the right side on the lower ground. Pros might be able to hit the shot but globals or the average faceit player is gonna have a really hard time unless you keep jumping when spotted.

[@vooCSGO]

yeah i actually forgot to specifically tell him he was doing the jump spot badly when i told him his issues initially. bit of artistic liberties in the edit. he actually figured that out and fixed it between games himself and i mentioned it later

[@johnnyll91]

Why would u adapt your decision making considering people being worse. Do it the way you're least likely to die. If the argument is, if they are not pros they wont punish u, then u shouldnt do it at all.

[@johnjackson4331]

Well yeah for example crouching mid air while jumping from left to right is the best jumpspot imo

[@44r0n-9]

@@johnnyll91 Wrong. There is absolutely no need to not do stuff you know won't get you killed. That jumpspot pretty much never gets you killed sub 3K elo, and 99.9% of players will never make it there. And the jumpspot is way better than the one back at truck because you can see the enemy way earlier. By the way, pro players also do that jumpspot, even though sometimes someone hits that shot.

[@johnnyll91]

@@44r0n-9 idk never played csgo at a low level basicly started after 10k+ hours 1.6, multiple offline events and uncountable amounts of online tournaments. But I see no reason to not play every duel and decision like your opponent is good at the game. Taking bad decisions because u can get away with it i just dont understand. Only comparison i can take with that would be if you know the offline event is realy loud like Dreamhack and u know u can run more than usual, but that's playing that specific environment.

[@gamingmarcus]

Zeio to me looked like exactly the kind of DM-aim you'd expect from a lower player. He can hit crazy shots because he's grinded DM for hundreds of hours but lacks consistent crosshair placement across the map and doesn't properly clear angles one by one (see 2:00 onward)

I enjoy these videos - but - tbh I don't give a d@mn about my rank anymore. I was Supreme/Global for 5+ years.. the last year I mainly played faceit though - ranked up to lvl8. Now, when I played MMaking I got a new rank: DMG. so.. yeah. I'll just focus on faceit.

[@vooCSGO]

yeah that's fair. i'm LEM in mm atm it doesn't really matter. as a general rule, Global Elite (especially in europe) is Faceit 6/7. sometimes you see globals at Faceit 5 but it's rare to see someone at faceit 8 or above that can't get global if they want

[@GregorGorjan]

@@vooCSGO are you sure that is still true? they dropped a bunch of ranks to players. had a silver 3 who was MGE at some point. i started playing a bit more this year. and before i ranked up every 12-15 games and got to GN. then i tumbled down quite fast about every 3 games (with latest VAC ban waves and with leetify shwoing them i now maybe know why) to silver elite. then they assigned new ranks and my new rank was/is silver 3. it has been like this for 19 games now. and i can see a lot of descent players. checking them out later on stat pages it reveals they used to be GN3 or 4 before the rank updates. and it is fun playing with or against them. but then i also play against a lot of unranked or players that just got their silver 1 rank. and it just seems a bit unfair to them. if they are on my team i try to teach them and got quite a few commendations. i am mostly just playing a couple of games per week for fun. i am very old in CS:GO terms. and my reflexes are not as they used to be, i get sleepy during the game, frequent bathroom breaks... 🙂 i don't want to be global but silver elite master seemed like a cosy place to me before the rank move. So this is my goal for this year. rank up 2 or 3 times max..

[@jzderf]

Really like the analogy of having skill points you can try to apply to different attributes. It's important to remember that someone multiple levels above you aren't doing some godlike things - it's all about tweaking the areas you know you can improve on and the results will (or should) come naturally.

[@09fungh]

Hey Voo, thanks for the vid. What would you say that NA Global would equate to now in Faceit level after the rank reset? Previously you mentioned that EU Global is right around Faceit 5 or 6. After the rank reset I’m placed into DMG/LE and I’ve been facing a lot of Faceit 7s and 8s in my games (usually LEM and Supreme). Is it possible that even after the rank reset, NA ranks are still a little deflated compared to EU ranks?

[@esgond]

Most players that play Faceit don't usually play Matchmaking, therefore deranking over time

[@indestructiblemadness8531]

EU player here. When I was playing on global a couple weeks before, I regularly played against 5 stacks with at least 3 faceit 10s with 2500-3000+ elo. On the other hand, now Im playing on lem and my enemies seem to be mainly faceit 3, with sometimes a lvl 5 or 8 sprinkled in. It dont think there is a consistant way to compare both.

[@vooCSGO]

can't really say. i can only say with decent confidence what faceit rank global in EU is because i've had so many demos submitted over such a long period of time + leetify gave me some data at some point as well (it's faceit 6/7 roughly, but obviously there's variance). NA.. who knows

[@vadnegru]

Yesterday i had game with MGE and bunch of MG. MGE is lvl10, 6k hours, rest of the team 2k+ with 6-8 lvl

Biggest indicator of Spot The Global to me was consistent good utility usage on the fly.

[@patrick9997]

I have been global for years and I'm not on the faceit grind. currently in the midst of level 7 and it still feels quite doable for me... Through playing so much faceit I had the chance to improve a lot more than through just playing mm and I have seen many players reach global who struggle in lower faceit levels against players that I would probably guess at DMG/LE. It also really depends on the region that you play in I guess. But over all I'd say that as long as you have somewhat of an understanding of whats going on in the game and you make the right rotations at the right time you should be able to get global easily

[@Nemolas]

Love how Zeio peeked out of market in the beginning and was right on that T on short behind the building, lol

[@nicknola9670]

its not Moonleafs aim, its his utility usage that made me think he is global. He is quick to use his util effectively. Zeio was not as good on the util in the first videos

[@CellarDoorCS]

And this is the beauty of csgo - there are some players that exclusively play casual but in reality are better individually then global or lvl10 facit. So what makes this different? There is a ton to look out for, but in particular order: -patience that only comes from experience -movement -actual aim -utility usage -map knowledge -awareness Fuuck, add to that adjusting one's gameplay due to the kind of teammates you have to deal with. Sometimes these clips don't always tell the whole story. Still a nice video idea and interesting to watch - thanks! PS - people will also have a different idea of what 'global good' is. Anyways, I just smoked a joint, excuse the long read 😂

Jump spotting B apps is mandatory if you want to have a chance at throwing utility when T:s push, and you won't see a single pro game in mirage where a solo b holder won't at some point of the game jump spot b apps.

The funniest part is that reaching global is just the start, then comes the 3rd party sites. And now being at 2400 elo on faceit, my mm rank has dropped to LE because I simply couldn’t care less about it

[@KaiUndMoritz]

5:18 that spot is easy to jump spot safely. from left to right into the spot and then find the 5 frames spot you can spot into aps. You get away while peeking. So you wont see them pushing you and are stuck at car with 3 nades coming. And you get safe info. If you get hs there that has nothing to do with rank but luck.

[@awryfps]

As a Silver 2, recently promoted from Silver 1, im better then these guys 100%.

[@alecstronach]

I’m currently a Silver 2 and I see very often people in my games complaining about shit teammates (which in fairness, is valid in some cases) and saying they should be DMG or GE or whatever. I think I should be somewhere in Gold Nova, but I’m very much stuck in Silver. On days where I have time (5 days a week average I’d say) I’ll spend around an hour working on my spray control, crosshair placement, nades etc in practice maps - which I very much doubt the majority of people who claim they should be Global do - and then I play a few comp games. I top frag every game, I have above average stats for a Gold Nova 1 on Leetify, I manage the team as much as possible by calling the strats etc (but it’s kinda pointless when 80% of people in my rank don’t even bother with headphones…) I think people really need to understand the difference between a Silver/Gold Nova and a Global Elite. Global Elite isn’t just a title, it’s an exceptionally accurate description of the playerbase within it. They’re the best of the best - for the most part. A Silver jumping to GE is a death sentence, I would love a chance to actually make my way up the ladder towards GE but sadly if you get placed in Silver, you’re genuinely looking at YEARS of work just to get to MG. I’m not just saying that either, I can perform exceptionally in 5 games and not rank up, but 1 game against an LEM who domes me every round and I derank. Idk how I’m expected to improve when I’m only ever put against potatoes or people who outclass me in every way. CSGO really needs to rework the MMR system, that is the main problem. Not people saying they’re the best when they’re not.

[@Jakoby45]

I have better stats than the "average" global on leetify right now, Except aim which was because my high ass sensitivity which cause inconsistency. Been focusing on fixing it, ranked up 3 times in the last 2 days! Almost global!

[@raitse1]

You can never tell peoples rank based on aim. Game-sense, movement and using utility correctly are the ones that tell you if a player is good. Though I must admit that people at GE still lack these things more often than not. I like the point you make, that you should play off of your own strengths. If you have that DM grind aim and you like to be aggressive, then play entry. But if you can make sure that you can clutch every 1v1 and 1v2 thrown at you, then maybe try to play in positions that enable you to be the last man alive while not baiting your team.

[@RaimaNd]

MM ranks are worthless because they don't include personal performance. I started playing with silver friends and over some months I deranked down to MG2 while they ranked up to MG2 because we play all games together, win and lose together but because of the ranks of the enemies (which are higher than theirs and lower than mine) the glicko2.0 points given and taken vary a lot. And now we're all MG2 while they get 4 frags and I get 30 frags on average etc. pp. MM ranks should heavily include personal performance. Util damage, entry frag success rate, adr, kpr, kd etc. but it doesn't.

[@mr6462]

I’m guessing it’s because the enemies is ‘easy’ for your rank so you get less reward for winning and more pushniment when you lose a game.

If anyone is watching this video and they feel like they aren't in the rank they deserve, you probably aren't, The ranking system is f'd I have won 15 games in a row, ranked up to supreme (finally) played two games and lost (deranking back to LEM). Played one game (ranked up) lost two more (no derank). Like wth?

[@TheBorkka]

As a global elite I can say that I have worse aim that some DMG players, but I have better teamplay and gamesense than most DMG. So I think basically you need to be good at most things but not everything.

I got my Global Rank up Yesterday

[@Skylda]

i have a serious question. i talk about me. i have days where i play really bad. eversthing i do is failure and having a 0.5 k/d. then there are other days where iam godlike. i play like a pro and having a 5-20 k/d. but WHY? how can it be that i often play so badly and then so well on other days? where does this extreme difference come from? is it because of me? concentration? mentally? or do i often end up in lobbies with opponents who are much better?

[@h.l.1636]

Im playing solo q and im as LEM better than the most global elite Player i get on My Team this globals 2k23 are All boosted or what ever that is a scam...

[@xrarii]

on 8:42 instead of playing the pistol should he had got back inside the smoke walk back to stairs and re peek that or instead of stairs jungle or having the pistol was better?

[@justtrollman]

Greetings from Estonia voo! I have a problem with ranking up from MG. In my thought i play pretty good, i also communicate with team (info only, sometimes funnsies) and i never ever got higher than MGE. I would really aprreciate your help. Love your videos, learning much from them. Ty❤

[@sadist1k]

Not trolling, genuine question - I sat in bed watching this, and the zeio portion of the demo where he fought in market struck me as odd. Every single player he peeked/killed was lined up through the walls in very strange ways. His crosshair placement just felt really off or suspect, instead of being smart movement that happened to land on people. Am I just wrong?

[@frog382]

Dont fall for the rank hype... Ive seen some MG2 players that can, if they did it right, get to global and ive also seen some very bad global players... Try to improve yourself, not your rank.

[@salimalbadrani9745]

It’s exciting to reach global for the first time but in MM most players at that level cheat. A good learning path after I reach ge is to start playing face it

[@indaryus8778]

Hey voo I've been watching your vids for a few months now and I'm improving at the game but im being in silver hell with 1k hrs do you know where I could find teammates?

[@mr.inspector3935]

I very much enjoyed this one.

[@PoorCoyotee]

DMG - low Global is pretty much the same. Depends more on communication which is way easier playing with full stack knowing what ur friends do most of the time. Bigger differences in movement and utility start to come with strong globals 7-8+ faceit. Rank system is just fucked these days cuz so many peoples play on 3rd party platforms instead of mm. Feels like LEM is the easiest rank these days the MG1-MGE games are just full of lvl 10 smurfs. And well global is 50/50 if you get mm or high faceit lvl globals against you.

[@lartonki]

Yeah rank dont really matter on mm, i play lots of with same friends and first we can won 16-0 against mge players that feels like silvers just to lose next game 3-16 because enemy team is between faceit level 6-10

[@ItzRetz]

6:45 he's also shooting way too fast with pistols. It's like he's panicking and hoping a shot will hit. If he tap fired and aimed correctly he'd have a much better chance at getting kills.

[@sonnypickard5663]

I’m SEM and didn’t think any of those players were better than me

[@bongo6_462]

15K HOURS?! Thats 1.7 years

[@jakdabongr1pper820]

I just did that neat ass nade at window 2 days ago but with a molly

[@dushanstankovikj]

From first cut when you introdouce the players i known that moonleifshadow is Global Elite :D

[@ashwinmurty1453]

The fact that the global plays exactly like me is such a W

[@austincsgo]

Personally, I think austin is just a lucky guesser.

[@MrMiss-cp9bw]

Not taking a dig at you (not even a subtle one), but I love how you say MoonLeaf instead of MoonLife (Leif is a name, and pretty much sounds like Life - At least in Danish) 😁

[@OPTCO1]

In the beginning when i was silver to nova, i used to destroy globals 1v1 while they playing rifles and me going with pistol

[@tinychamberz]

sure

[@savagegecko4575]

I'm Supreme but play like a silver :(

[@kSwiitch]

Zeio is def. Not a Global, the pistol round gave it away immediately, a good player should know to push out and help his teamates or else the round would be lost..

[@taylorwillis5556]

The difference between silver and global is large, but there are outliers. I’ve seen silver players (friends that I know aren’t smurfs) that like to troll, and play solo often, that play like a bottom tier global player. I’m LEM myself, and I’ve gotten absolutely outplayed and outsmarted by silvers/GNs plenty of times. Some people just don’t play competitively, don’t take time to learn rotations, smokes, flashes etc and don’t rank up, but have stupid high hours and god tier gun skill at the silver/GN ranks.

[@mastershooter64]

You dont learn god tier gun skills without actually taking the time to train properly, the only thing you'll do if you have stupid high hours playing mm is hit a ceiling, yes of course you'll get good, but you'll hit a ceiling and you wont get better than that, because you develop bad habits and you need to actually take the time to train your aim and spray patters and counter strafing if you want to actually get good

[@akaneru1935]

i met a lot of people with crazy aim, utilities and skills, but lack game sense, very rigid gameplay, and are predictable, 9/10 times i would win against these people nor lose if they are on my team haha, i think what makes you truly deserve the top rank is the embodiment of the latter characteristics rather the first, even with a inconsistent efficient aim, i truly saw a lot of people who relies too much on setting up smokes, flash without adhering to utilize pace, lurk, timing, enemy positions efficiency, and awareness of the enemy, to me MoonLeif deserved to be a Global, and i already knew he was Global before it was revealed, you always have to able to utilize your skills to a point it became an instinct, because the reaction will be faster and more stable, plus you can provide more impact for any duels you encountered

[@_wayneman_]

The average master guardian skill tree: Aim: 10/10 Brain: 0/10 Smokes: 0/10 Gamesense: 0/10 Communication: 0/10 Strats: 0/10 Willingness to lister and/or learn: -10/10 Flaming: 11/10

[@zxn_0]

as someone who transitioned from rocket league (ps4) to csgo (first pc game) the ranks are so confusing, how am i supposed to know how good a Distinguished Master Guardian Elite Eagle Global Legend is lol.
