The 5 LEVELS of Warming Up in CS2

[Music] welcome to Counter Strike today I'll be going over the five levels of warming up in CS2 to help you learn the game improve quicker and always be in top form for competitive games if you take anything away from this video try not to be a level one player so what is level one I know a lot of us are guilty of this including myself but level one is using your first game as the warm-up you probably already know this isn't the greatest idea I personally play noticeably worse my first game if I haven't used some of the higher level warm-up strategies it isn't a good feeling being at the bottom of the leaderboard it's important to note sometimes level one is okay you don't always have time for much playing and if you only have time for one game you should just play the game it's understandable and isn't the end of the world however if you know you have the time using some higher level warm up techniques will help you improve much quicker so level two level two level two is using official valve death match servers to warm up your aim before playing a competitive match this can be a great tool to get into form quickly before your games I think you will see a noticeable Improvement to the first few rounds of your game if you have already warmed up your aim before playing and with pistol rounds being so important in mr12 this is great valve Deathmatch does have its downsides and that's why level 2.5 is using a workshop map like aimbots these maps are pretty great for warming up your aim in a more quick fire way and you don't need to rely on any anyone else for these maps to be a great warmup you can use these maps to practice your aim your spray patterns and your flicks with multiple weapons all within a short time span it doesn't matter if you use these tools for 5 minutes a day or an hour a day you will start to notice Improvement not only for your first game of a session but also for your aim overall as this is something you can always be improving Aimbot is a great map and I recommend that everyone should use it as it's so easy to use for 5 minutes every Counterstrike session now level three aimbots is great and all but you really need to be practicing against human opponents to get the most out of your warm-up in CS2 and the best way to do this is community servers CS2 has been out for a while now so we finally have decent Community server support this means there are lots of choices out there I recommend retake servers retake servers are great for practicing both aim and game sense in a situation that you will experience in every real game you play I personally use xplay dog to find both retake and Deathmatch servers but there are lots of options out there you will get to practice defending and retaking sites with many different weapons such as pistol force and full by rounds and get to learn the best ways to win rounds for both T and CT side this isn't as good as aim Bots necessarily for practicing raw aim but being able to practice game sense in a real situation is super important as well and that's what makes this level free over something like aim box there is also no time limit here you can play for 5 minutes or an hour and either way you will see Improvement in lots of areas of your gameplay so we are on to level four at this point you are probably mixing multiple levels together and this is super important you can't just practice retakes without using something like aimbots every now and then and expect to improve as fast as someone using all five levels so level four is using private games to explore Maps learning utility such as smokes and pop flashes and discovering new ways to both execute and hold sites that will level you up compared to your opponents at this point it isn't good enough to just watch a smoke guide and think to yourself I think I'll remember that for my next game because most of the time you will forget the lineups before your next game you should be going into a private match and actually throwing the smokes yourself to build up the memory you can also experiment with making your own lineups at this level find something that works for you there are hundreds of ways to throw smokes in this game and you can easily find something that no one has used before to use in your own games to catch people off guard if you can practice smoke lineups for just 10 minutes a day you'll be surprised how quickly you start to master some maps remembering a dozen or more smugs for each map in the map Pool and being the teammate that everyone is grateful to have alongside them with just a small amount of great lineups you will see more rounds one more enemies flashed and much more utility damage in all of your games for not all that much work put in this is super essential for reaching the higher ranks of Counterstrike again you can't just only practice smokes and nothing else you still need to warm up your aim if you want to be playing at your best in this game but to take it to the next level implementing a smoke regimen into your warm-up is a great idea now we finally arrive at level five to be honest level five isn't for everyone and lots of great players will only be at level four themselves but to get to level five you need to be analyzing the demos of your previous games CS2 has demos re-enabled at this point so this is actually quite easy to do although it does take quite a long time compared to other levels in this guide every professional player does this and it's one of the things that takes them to the next level what your demos from your perspective I recommend taking notes even try to note down the things you see you could have done better we aren't here to talk about the positives we want to know how to improve am I losing aim battles too often failing to trade teammates when the option was available this kind of stuff you have to be super harsh with yourself to note down areas to improve and then find the solutions to practice your weak spot and bring them up to a new level of consistency I can assure you doing this will lead to noticeable improvements quickly as long as you work on the floors you spot during demo reviews a quick recap of the five levels level one is essentially no warm-up try to keep this at a minimum even squeezing in 5 minutes of warmup will lead to fast Improvement level two is using valve Deathmatch servers to warm up your aim before playing a competitive game this is great but we know there are better ways to practice aim than this that's why we have level 2.5 level 2.5 is practicing your aim on Workshop Maps such as aimbots this is much faster paced and will lead to more consistency on your aim faster than a conventional Death Match level three is using Community retake servers to practice both aim and game sense at the same time against real human opponents getting you used to situations that appear many times in every game you play level four use private games to go over smoke lineups pop flashes and more to really bring your game to the next level become the teammate everyone wants on their team and finally level five analyze your past games to find mistakes and areas for improvement and then actually work on improving those areas do this and you will improve faster than anyone else you know and that's the five levels of warming up in Counter Strike 2 I hope you took something away from this video if you liked the work I put into this consider subscribing and other than that bye go
