Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Performance Inconsistencies

[Saber]

In matchmaking, I've been having inconsistencies with my performance. Some games, I do really good, but only with an AWP, or I do good but only with an AK47 or an M4, or I just can't figure out what works with me and I do horrible, which is the worst scenario. This might be because I don't have a lot of time devoted to practice. I do spend at least 30 minutes doing warm up practice on aim maps and in deathmatch.

During the actual games, my role in the team varies because of these inconsistencies, though I usually take the role of team leader. I try my hardest to compensate for these inconsistencies. For example, if I am having a bad game and I am getting few frags, I try to give my team strategic advice based on what I can analyze from the other team. During the games I do extremely well, it's usually because I am better than my team in terms of skill, but I try to help them with advice that I've received from other so that they can improve.

Anyway, does anybody have an thoughts, opinions, or questions?

pZ_ Thank you! I will keep this stuff in mind!

Playing more is something that is hard to control, mainly because of school. If I wanna get better at the game, I am going to have to put more effort into school. I usually spend the day doing homework and watching anime afterwords, and I usually only play at night, but I still do my warmup practice regularly. I agree that mm results are uncontrollable, especially because I solo queue.

My teammates vary a lot, and last night, I got an enemy team that absolutely destroyed my team, which was obviously inferior, but I couldn't help but think I was better than their top fragger. I believe I was anchored by my team, one of which didn't get a kill in the first half. They had 3 good players, vs my team with one good teammate, myself, an average player, and a bot because our other teammate quit by the 5th round. Towards the end of the first half, I got frustrated and starting getting really competitive. They were also being toxic, which also fired me up. I started doing way better and was killing their top fragger's more often. In the end, I could only help pull 5 rounds with an end score of 5-16.

Another thing is that I am a very reactive person. I may not seem like it, but I am the type that will get angry at toxicity. I remember when I started playing csgo. I started playing with my friend (very good friend. Known him for over 3 years!) who got me into the game, and one of our teammates was mad at my friend for poor performance and started making fun of his ingame name, which was wooden, which was a nickname given to him by a good friend of his who passed away. I was really quick to start chewing this guy out. I was super pissed at him, but I was surprised to hear that my friend told me to shut up and stop arguing with this guy. With the same friend, and another good friend I met, I've done this many times on Call of Duty, but that was a way more toxic time of my life. I used to spent countless hours arguing with people in S&D, because I loved the satisfaction of proving someone wrong in an argument.

Try playing on retake servers to get better at situational awareness and also try to learn from the better people on them. I learned quite a bit from retake servers such as where to play post plant or how to retake sites better. Another thing is to try to think about the game, but not how you are playing individually. Whenever people start to focus on their performance in comps, they usually lose perspective of the game or how the other team plays. Just try to play to your strengths and don't focus too much on the negatives.

If you want to get better get on a different platform

Sause is right, but also this is gonna sound weird but think less and play more. The more I try to analyze and play analytically I play worse. I try to warm up but also not warm up too much. Taking breaks between comps as well helps a lot. Like full walk away from computer and get something to eat or use the bathroom. Going back to back hurts a lot so try those out. The other big thing is playing with friends which helps like a LOT. I play a lot better with friends for some reason vs. solo queuing

Play jail. Nothing builds your skill more than slaying unarmed, non dangerous prisoners
