This may sounds full of lie, but it's true and I need help
About a month ago, I was a competitive player, at least in the server I always play. But somehow, around 2 or 3 weeks ago, I don't know why I feel like I lost my skill almost completely. My KDR (Kill Death Ratio, or kill divide by death) usually around 2 or higher, but now, I only can get less than 0.5. Even I remembered 3 days ago, I get 3 kills and 15 deaths. This is somehow frustrating me. I've practice harder (by vs bots, OMG! and going at deathmatch server), but when I arrive there, at the server I always play in, I keep getting headshotted and dying.

So, what way do you think I can get back to my skills? And I noticed people doesn't have problems like this, they always at their shape or even better (the noobs stays noob, but can improve, the pro stays pro and can becoming more l337. OMG, they never experienced a downgrade? Why?)

P.S. : I ALWAYS have problems like this, but usually it back in 1 weeks.

I think what you may be experiencing are opponents who are better than you... I mean, sometimes I'll be playing, and then I go to a different match, and dang... it looks like I'm terrible...

How come they can be all professionals suddenly? Even now I get dying and dying from a *sorry* noob people I know LOL.

Yo man; don't worry I got the same problem as you..
First I'm getting damn good at all servers .. Suddenly I lose all my skill and get pwned by everyone // you should just keep playing (against low skills ?) and after a while you'll notice that you got your skill back.

lol,

This happened to me a few years ago... I thought omg i have turned into *sorry* a n00b over night...

Then i found this site

supposedly the skills fairy comes and saps your cs skills while you are sleeping... but there are things that you can do... such as by this potion from...

lol but tbh if you have a clicked on any of the links above then i think it is all lies and you were never any good in the first place...

But if all you say is true then yeah keep practicing and it will all come back to you in time

This can be frustrating and so annoying at times. I lost my skills a few months back, but kept competing against other players that are way better then me. I played on the same server with 4 Professional players, and in a matter of 2 hours I got better and had past the level I lost.

Use a Deagle and an M4A1, He-Grenade, two flashbangs, 1 smoke grenade, Armour and a knife, with your M4A1 don't be too scared to run into your opponent shooting him. Like some computer bots they shoot at other players legs, and lower body. Make sure you always aim for there head when shooting.

It can be difficult at times, but keep doing it every time you play, and your skills will improve to a higher stage in the game. If you come to the point where your shooting your opponents and you need to reload, don't stop and wait for your weapon to reload. Quickly switch to your Deagle and shoot them in the head. Also when shooting with your Primary weapon try going to them shooting then crouch and keep shooting. This then makes it a tiny bit harder for them because they need to move their cross hair scale down to your body.

If your on a Sniping Deathmatch server, get to a better advantage point with some crates and barrels to protect you. Just don't hide behind the exploding barrels with little health. You'll loose some health and the other team has a more of an advantage to kill you.

Try everything I said, and post back with your new results.

Writing is easy, getting headshots are hard enough

I try my best, I hardly get headshots when I'm using M4, I can do headshots better with AK-47. I just feel AK-47's accuracy is better when I use to burst but it surely sucks when bursting. When I tap mouse button with M4A1, it is lame.

What's the smoke for? I just usually use that to escape from AWP'ers. The rest of that, I cannot see enemy coming because of my smoke and teammates complaining. But thanks, I always bring smoke with me.

Do headshots with crosshair aimed at lower body? Come on, seriously (I know recoil will bring it higher and higher till get their head), but I will surely die first before it reachs head

How suppose I improve if I always play agains low skills? I see a site that tell this



I avoid crouching. Yes it will improve accuracy and make me a smaller target, but hey, I cannot move quickly, AWP get me easily, people can easily shoot a sitting duck.

No, I said the following:


Use the Smoke Grenades for a better advantage of moving from one place to another so your opponent doesn't know witch side you switched to, they'd think your still in the same/current position.



If sv_alltalk is set to 0, warn your teammates that your throwing a Smoke grenade via using your microphone, or team chat. If they still complain, then tell them to shut up, and say you did warn them.

It's there fault if they run into the smoke grenade.
