CSGO Tips: Improve Your Aiming Technique at Counter Strike

When we look at the required skills to complete your CSGO aim training at a higher level an in-depth understanding of used meta strategies, effective team communication and thorough map knowledge are key.

When we zoom-in on the mechanical skill set, the most important points towards individual success:

  • Reaction speed
  • Crosshair placement
  • Angle peeking
  • Weapon spread & recoil management

To get to the optimal Reaction speed required for dominating at CSGO, aim to do 30 minutes of concentrated reaction time practice each day. Always keep your hands warm and aid your reaction time training with precision practice as well. Always keep your crosshair at head level and as you proceed forward on the map, clear out every angle by pre gaming at where you think there would be an enemy before you make the peak. Peak each spot one at a time while making sure not to expose yourself to a new angle. That way, when your enemy appears you’ll be aiming as close as possible to their position and can actually take a few milliseconds off your mouse adjustment time and remove chances for any error. Use the pre fire technique, essentially that is when you peak and shoot instantaneously you’re not actually seeing an enemy and reacting. preemptive aiming allows you to proactively shoot your enemy before they even had a chance to react.

When it comes to recoil, studying the firing pattern of your gun, since they remain the same you can predict where you need to readjust to make sure your bullets hit your designated target every time you open fire. You need to effectively reverse this pattern as the gun unloads to ensure a better outcome for yourself. This requires days of serious practice to build up the correlating muscle memory and work on that twitchy trigger finger. You really need to go beyond beginner’s level until your spraying is second nature to you.

This has everything to do with the very fast time to kill (TTK) in CS:GO where every millisecond gained or lost can be the difference between a win or a loss. That is why individual player reaction time has a huge impact at the very top of the competitive ladder.

But before you can reach this level you need to make sure all the other aim related skills are on point.

I love two things in life, games and sports. Although sports were my earliest interest, it was video games that got me completely addicted (in a good way). My first game was Crash Bandicoot (PS1) from the legendary studio Naughty Dog back in 1996. I turned my passion for gaming into a job back in 2019 when I transformed my geek blog (Re-actor) into the gaming website it is today.
