Tips and tricks #10

10. Focus on the important weapons – The higher level matches you’re playing, the more you’ll start seeing the same guns being used over and over again. There’s not much debate over which weapons are the most useful in the average CS match: you’ll need to learn to frag effectively with the AK-47 (when on the terrorist side), the M4A4 or M4A1-S (when on the CT side), and the AWP if you want to play that role (most five-man teams will only have one AWPer). It’s worthwhile to get decent at some of the cheaper guns as well, but the vast majority of the time you will be using one of the above-mentioned rifles once you get into the more advanced ranks.
