I love how harsh he is with you. I bet 90% of your viewers, me included, make the same stupid mistakes and receiving honest feedback is so valuable. Even when a play worked out in the end, he will tell you why it was bad to do it in the first place. A+ coaching imo.
Watching the overall video, you can see that despite the roasting he has good intentions. Although, if it was me being coached, as a casual gamer I would definitely appreciate the same advice in a little more friendly way ;) Still, great videos and great advise!
21:00 Notice here, he has his knife out for maximum velocity. He maintains this velocity mid-air when he jumps and THEN switches to his rifle. This is good movement practice.
I can't tell you how helpful this is as someone around your skill level. I see myself making a lot of the same mistakes as you and would never have known without these coaching vids
usually i don't comment on videos. HOWEVER, this series is amazing. I've never learned so much about cs in such a short period of time. Please for the love god keep these coaching videos coming! They're truely amazing and I'm really thankful for them❤
Ive played cs for over 10 years with over 5k hours on multiple accounts. I found your video in the explore page and gave it a go. Thank you for this mini series, even i've learnt a lot watching your videos expecially reminding myself the basics and fundamentals of basic movements, peeking and map control. After a long time playing csgo sometimes you feel like you're on autopilot mode and forget these things.
i like what you're doing with this series but really the big lesson i think coach should be driving home is the fact that it looks like you're outplaying yourself and be trying to be everywhere on the map instead of slowing down and taking it one round at a time, assessing the situation around you. Situational awareness on the server can make the least mechanically gifted players look great just through game sense alone. But as always it's always easier said than done and hindsight is 20/20 lol the beauty of watching demos
Even with his mistakes, xboxlasagne is significantly more deadly than I am and I have been playing (off and on) since CS version 1 way back in 2000!! Needless to say, this is hugely enlightening, as others have noted.
Even though I think I have a pretty good idea of what to do on most maps I still learn a lot with every new video. I see some of the mistakes you make and also see myself doing those things sometimes.
He hit on a massive pet peeve that I run into playing low elo CS with friends, people buying Dualies on T side. Just stop doing it people, you’re going to get headshot by a USP or P2 before you get into range anytime you play a even half competent team.
One thing I notice is low level players over use util for some reason, and will get killed with nades in their hand or end up hurting their team or themselves more often than not. Tbh until you're a certain elo or rank just focus on your crosshair and movement.
Ive noticed as well especially on contact plays mid round where you know its like a 3v1 (one ct on site) people start doing full exec's with smokes and have a single guy running in into a 1v1 instead of grouping up and just fucking the guy site. It gives me an aneurism lol
I need Pienix. This shit is getting ridiculous. I'm spinning my wheels trying to figure it out on my own. These videos are awesome and I like Pienix's coaching style. I already know I'm a noob and I suck so my team is out of useful information to offer. I'll have to seek help elsewhere.
Why does a smoke not block a flash? I feel like it did in CSGO, but not so much in CS2. I find myself sometimes blinding myself using a flash to help push a smoke.
Dude, I know one of your problems. Only after being a long term IGL that I notice these things. I BET your mini map is zoomed out quite a bit. When you turn away from specific angles you look away. This is typical of strategic play. Change your mini map to have it zoomed in OR as your coach to give you more IGLing directive, but that will only work if you tell him exactly what you had been thinking during that moment.
I see alot of people fall down the util rabbit hole (myself included) I would almost encourage not using any util and really refine your pathing, peaks and crosshair placement. Everything else makes getting kills easier but if you can shoot better you will outperform 9/10 util players
is it possible to record the game "in game" in cs2? cause im seeing a hud like its an ingame feature but i don't see any match history whatsoever... do you set "record" on the console before playing a match and then playdemo or something like that?
proof the rating system is messed up, when players like this have 10K. if you played against most of the people stuck around 4K forever, because every loss results in -500-600 pts, youd get your ass handed to you.
this game was played during the beta period when all ranks were inflated. also i've since solo queued out of the 4k range pretty easily after launch, so.
@@xboxlasagne Totally, I think being a new player we measure success by if we get a kill or two or three per round. Pros measure if they played the round just right and stayed alive. Which is great but that mindset comes a little later on. I think, you need the hyper running around at the start because we lack the other skills which means if we played like a pro at the start we would get shot in seconds because even peaking properly is an art. I am really enjoying this series and I can't believe no one has done a cs2 series like this before, good job dude!
he doesnt know the game or how to play but still he knows how to use smoke and line up?? I was like wtf, even I didnt know some of them as a 10 lvl faceit also A+ rank esea :)) GJ dude
let me tell you, premier is not the way. you queued against lvl 10 on faceit that have the same ELO points as you on premier and you might be a lvl 2 3. how is that fair?
Goes to show that basic math (your coach calls it"reading the economy") is esoteric knowledge that can carry you to global... it's so simple, too. The scoreboard tracks how many survived so you can just look it up. First round loss is $1,400 and every round lost in a row adds $500 with a maximum rewards of $3,400. So, if you were to notice a winning streak for one team, and then a single round win for the other team, then the amount who survived is the total number of "fullbuys" they can do if they lose the next round. If 5 die to win a round, and they lose the next round, then they will do pistol + armor if they are high IQ. If they are low IQ, they "fullsave" and get $1,400 + $1,900... which is $3,300... which is not a full buy. At this point, the lack of basic math skills usually causes the team to argue amongst themselves.
I love how harsh he is with you. I bet 90% of your viewers, me included, make the same stupid mistakes and receiving honest feedback is so valuable. Even when a play worked out in the end, he will tell you why it was bad to do it in the first place. A+ coaching imo.
Agreed!

I like you getting roasted because it's not me getting roasted but I still get the lesson.
LOL
@xboxlasagne that is a funny but accurate way of putting it 😅
😂
😂
Please keep this series going! Helping me big time on each map
"harsh but true". Damn he was kinda savage this game lol. Way to stay humble and take it on the chin

it's crazy how much stuff we don't even realize we're doing wrong haha
I love how you explain your thought process. Makes it so much easier to understand and go beyond these mistakes
We need more like this kind of content. Helpful, awkward. But most importantly informative
Very nice to see you how open you are to all the good stuff you get told
I appreciate this series, gl on your journey!
reloaded, not empty, straight into a guy you knew was there, and just flashed you.
The best series there is on the youtube. Keep up the good content
thank you!

Constructive 1 on 1 coaching is so useful, thanks for sharing this! Keep doing this sort of video.
I got to incorporate those ramp flashes.... really dug the util set for sidehall (also keep up the good work)

Loving this series, these are the kinda videos that bring VALUE. ❤
Seriously an awesome series. Learning util sets like this feels like it helps so much.

I really love your content. Thanks for this!
Thanks for watching!
I threw that one way smoke on ramp and my team was like wtf are you doing 🤣bruh
Top quality content! keep it going
This guy is such a good coach
Damn these are so good

This series is amazing! Keep posting please
Awesome series! Keep it going!

Great series, keep it going!
thanks so much!
Wow this was a great video. Love it. Learn so much by it.
22:42 LOL
pls keep it going
we learning fr
ty!!!
Even though I think I have a pretty good idea of what to do on most maps I still learn a lot with every new video. I see some of the mistakes you make and also see myself doing those things sometimes.
10:01 "If we have beaten them a few rounds their guns will be bad" this is the funniest sht ever
Thank You.
@@xboxlasagne Just like to picture them with like airsoft guns or something
tysm for stretching the image in post for us btw
Getting a "this is ok" must have made you feel warm inside
“This is ok” from pienix is equivalent to “amazing job mate” from anyone else LOL
He hit on a massive pet peeve that I run into playing low elo CS with friends, people buying Dualies on T side. Just stop doing it people, you’re going to get headshot by a USP or P2 before you get into range anytime you play a even half competent team.
Heh yeah I have not bought dualies a single time on T side since this vid
I think that Mac10 shot against the wall was a prefire
Comment for the algo. This series is so helpful!
Thank you!
this dude is a REALLY good coach

Great video and I can recognize myself in you 😂

Every time he gets a kill: "... this is ok."
Great vid bossman.
24:54 util for A
Nice vid
That's not being "roasted". I don't know why people started calling criticism and coaching, "roasting".
ok
The moment at 9:40 killed me 🤣
Funny i played just like you last night on Vertigo!!
This isn't even a video on t side vertigo for the most part its really just more about fundamentals
Playing Vertigo is actually quite easy. Just ban the map every time you play and make sure everyone else does as well.

Hey, it would be cool if you post a comparison how much youve improved with all the coaching already :)
at the end of the inferno apps video i have some clips
Why does a smoke not block a flash? I feel like it did in CSGO, but not so much in CS2. I find myself sometimes blinding myself using a flash to help push a smoke.
It didn’t in CSGO either - in Valorant, however…

sad but true
good vid
thank you
does anyone know what i can find likeminded people to play the game with its hard to find people to play faceit or even mm consistantly with
Late to the video but this is super helpful
Thanks!
i think i would play better if i knew a coach was gonna chew me out for playing bad,
how do u get this double view where u can watch the opposite side
liked and susbed
Dual barettas are the best buy in pistol rounds
is it possible to record the game "in game" in cs2? cause im seeing a hud like its an ingame feature but i don't see any match history whatsoever... do you set "record" on the console before playing a match and then playdemo or something like that?
There is demo functionality in CS2! nartouthere has a good video on it

also i've since solo queued out of the 4k range pretty easily after launch, so.
what level of a player i am watching here
What DPI and sensitivity settings do you use?
wait mah boi rin playing faceit again???
man the cs2 demo viewer is so responsive
def hard to see util on the player tho w/ that bar there
it's crazy fast
Xbox don't feel bad I do the same running around at times. Hyper looking for kills amp'd up. 😂
it's our god given right to zoom around looking for that third kill

Love is the answer
didnt know cs2 had gotv already
yeah it’s a little buggy but it does work
So basically don't take B? :O
What are u using to review the replay?
the in game demo player: ruclips.net/video/3c3zLINiApE/видео.htmlsi=FILMr5HJx0YkChIx
he doesnt know the game or how to play but still he knows how to use smoke and line up?? I was like wtf, even I didnt know some of them as a 10 lvl faceit also A+ rank esea :)) GJ dude
mfw I get top tier information that is actually applicable for free
let me tell you, premier is not the way. you queued against lvl 10 on faceit that have the same ELO points as you on premier and you might be a lvl 2 3. how is that fair?
there's a lot of unfair stuff that can happen in any matchmaking service
are you solo q? This dudes like my old igl, lol. Never really played solo q, only played scrims and esea leagues.
Brutal as always but if you can handle the criticism with an open mind you'll definitely learn from this guy.
coach me
reach out to pienix
I think that Person is not a real pro when he just talks around the problem but dont offer a better way to play in the situation can anyone relate?
I think if you watch my other videos with Pienix you will see him offer alternative ways to play situations very regularly.
How does a person become pro Cs2 coach from a game that is still in Beta testing?
well he’s coaching me in CS2 and I’m paying him
@@xboxlasagne
Pro Cs:Go Coach surely
unless he claims he's a Cs2 Beta Pro xDD
buy xm all the round

the silver strats lol, and thats saying a lot because im GN1 as best.
Anyone can say what hes saying. Id like to see him commentate without xray
Surprised this guy is “coaching” you but had no clue about the csgo line ups for util working in CS2…but odd lol
Oh brother
@@xboxlasagne how many hours do you have in CS?
jeez u so bad bro xd
thanks
need everyone to watch vertigo/anubis/ancient to hopefully improve mm
Anubis and ancient videos will be coming hopefully but not sure exactly when
