the problem with professional esports 2008-03-06 15:01:00 The following article was not made in specificity towards any specific teams or players. They are the result of looking at the problem logically and factually and bear no ill-intent. Enjoy.
In response to Singlecoil's article ("So you want to be a Pro?"), I can see no doubt that almost every fan will agree with the assessment. There is a problem inherent in amateur eSports, and "professional

Counter Strike Source Binding guide 2008-02-25 12:05:00 <!--sizec--><!--/sizec-->
Buying things at the beginning of a match can be a flurry of numbers hit, or a very slow process. Possibly even a deadly process if you are Terrorists on Dust 2. Binding
greatly speeds this process up, as you only need to hit a single key to buy what you want. It doesn’t take very long to set up, and all you need to watch out for is that your fingers do not slip while Read more:Source

playing with Consistency in counter strike source and 1.6 2008-02-22 02:19:00 I’ve always been curious about the consistency of players, and how we can go from outstanding to just plain miserable within the space of a few rounds. I myself have been a helpless victim of this for as long as I can remember, and am trying to figure out what it is that makes me play on top form.
Everybody is affected by consistency in some way, but the gamers who are most affected by Read more:Consistency

Guide to Practice Time for counter strike source and 1.6 2008-02-18 00:45:00 One problem with many non-professional teams is establishing a disciplinary way for team practicing. Teams often sit in ventrilo until there are 5 players and scrim. Other teams have a strict team practice schedule in which no one ever shows up to. Then there are some who gather everyone to practice prior to match nights, and hope they do well.
There is no way to improve your team without Read more:strike

the mental side of competitive counter strike source and 1.6 2008-02-14 14:53:00 Most of the people I've come to know over the past five years of my life have all considered Counter-Strike to be completely based on skills, experience, and intelligence. There is a fourth element to the factor of a great player -- temperament. It seems fairly obvious to just state: "Don't play on a team with a Hot Head." but with this article, I hope to explain to everyone the importance of Read more:strike

Anticipating the Unexpected when playing counter strike source and 1.6 2008-02-13 23:19:00 Let’s say that you have created some really cool new strats for your team to use in your upcoming match this week. At the beginning of practice, you show your team your new strategies. Everybody understands their positions, where to flash, and when to take the site. You guys dry run the strategy a little bit and everything looks good. In your mind, you can’t help but think “man…how could anybody Read more:strike

cs:s weapon spray patterns with pictures 2008-02-04 14:00:00 What Is Weapon Spray
Weapon spray is a term used for when you fire repeated rounds from a gun & spray fire in a direction. By holding down the fire button and aiming straight the recoil from the weapon produces a spray of fire which hits around the target or cross hair in this case. The more recoil on a weapon the more spray is produced and this is where I come in... Unknown to many, CSS has
How not to be clutched ( a guide for counter strike source and 1.6 ) 2008-02-02 22:41:00 Now, since clutching relied on breaking up the other team into smaller, killable chunks, anti clutching will obviously be focused on sticking together.
An example of what not to do, from a scrim I played yesterday:
On contra, we rushed b and took the site, but everyone died but gambino. 1v4, he killed a guy coming from plank, had 2 seconds to turn around and kill another guy coming from spawn, Read more:strike
How to clutch (a guide for counter strike source and 1.6) 2008-02-02 22:38:00 The ability to clutch is an important one. Winning a 1v2 or a 2v4 not only gives your team an additional round and extra money, but it can also be very demoralizing. Many teams will fall apart after losing a 1v3, while your own team will be inspired to play harder.
For this writeup, I am going to focus on how to clutch. How to prevent being clutched is just as important, but would require more Read more:strike

Teamwork is what separates the CAL-i from the CAL-m, the pug team from the new CAL-o superstars. Most teams in source have crappy teamwork

practice schedule? For an individual player
..
This is a very good question, though a lot of it will depend on how much time you have available, what your goal is and what said player needs to improve upon. The topic of individual improvement has a lot to do with aiming, but I really don't want to get into that right now, so I wont go over the specifics but instead I'll

guide to bunny hopping (tutorial with demo) 2008-01-31 23:39:00 about the hop
bunny hopping
is a "built in" "feature" in half-life caused
by the physics that have been programmed to make the
game realistic. yes' i know hopping around like a crazy fool
isn't realistic, but it has to be possible for everything else in
the game to be. some folks think that the bunny hop is a cheat, but
anyone that has played half-life for a while knows that it is
a "normal"
awp Gap Shots for de_dust2 2008-01-31 15:08:00 Awp
The AWP is a weapon that decides the match. You want to use everything about the AWP to your advantage, whenever possible. For example, it's pricetag. If you know you have no chance of winning the round, but a dead teammate's AWP is nearby, you can pick that up and run away, and give it to your teammate the next round. By doing this you have saved money in that A, you didn't die, giving up
The Physical side of Counter Strike 2008-01-31 14:50:00 this article examines the physical aspects of engaging in competitive Counter
Strike. Although there is no immediate connection between grueling physical exertion and computer game play (excluding the kids that play DDR at Mach-4 in the mall of course), there is a connection between sound physical health and sound mental health, and both (yes both) are necessary to perform at your highest levels.

Being an unpredictable player and team:
So you have most likely scrimmed teams in which you can predict what they're doing exactly every round. This is due to inexperienced players. Irene Sutrik said “An unpredictable man, is a good man.” This relates to counter-strike in a strategic way. Think about it, a player pushs B and picks off 2 of

Pistol Round:
Most professional teams play it by spawn and have a basic setup. The strategy I’ve always used is a defensive long, 1 agro short, 2 middle, 1 b defensive. The main goal for the CT is to get the players low by using grenades and slow down rushes with flashes. (The basic buy is Defuse Kit + Nade + Flash)

You can create animated strats for CS 1.6 and CS:S by placing player objects (CT or T), nades, bombs, etc on a map overview and give them a path to move. Setup timing for the movements and nades then you play it back like a movie. There are also options to export the strat as a video file using the video export option.
