Hello steemit community! I am going to be talking about movement in CS:GO and ways to get better movement!
Movement in CS:GO
Movement is a very big part of CS:GO. There are many advantages if you have good movement. Good movement can help you with peaking angles faster, but can also help you take shortcuts on maps and this helps you get from one side of the map to the other faster which helps with for example your retake speed. By improving your movement you lose nothing you just get advantages over other people who do not have as good movement. For example you you are good at bhoping you can get to common spots to peak faster and by doing that you can catch the enemy player off guard.
Ways to improve
Surfing
So surfing is basically gliding on the side of ramps and flying through the air and strafing around corners with a lot to do with your mouse constantly. Surfing can help you a lot with your mouse control and movement as well. It is more for improving your control of the mouse as well as your strafe mid air that will help in some skill jumps. Also surfing is a lot of fun for just passing time. Myself I have used more hours then I can count on different surf servers and it has helped me with my movement quite a lot I like to think. If you want to play some surf you can do so by just typing in the server browser simply "surf" and searching. Maybe the easiest map to start on are the beginner maps but the one that is very simple and I like a lot is surf_mesa which is a good map to start on in my opinion.
Here is a start to a surf map that is also very simple.
Bhop
Bhop is a way of moving forward faster. It is basically jumping instantly when you hit the ground again which makes you move forward a lot faster than by just running. But on normal CS:GO servers it is very difficult to do but if you get good at bhopping it helps you very much in getting to common peak spot faster then the enemy expects you or just to get from place to place. Bhopping is a great way to improve movement and mouse control as well cause you need to use your mouse a lot to strafe in the air to not go over the platforms you jump on. Most bhop servers have auto bhop enabled which helps to improve movement and mouse control and is also a lot of fun. If you want to play or test some bhop just go to the server browser or the community servers tab and type in the search "bhop" and join a server thats all you have to do.
Here is an example of a bhop map. The maps get harder the further you get. You can not stop on the platforms.
KZ (climb)
KZ is a map that keeps going up and has a lot of tricky jumps but also some easy ones. You can try to do the map as fast as you can if you are good at KZ but you can also just try to get through the map. Usually all the maps have a timer that you can start at the beginning and then stop at the end. But KZ can be used to improve your movement by a lot with getting around the map and also knowing what jumps are possible and what are not. The KZ maps teach you a lot about jumping that will benefit you on the normal maps as well. KZ helps you with your movement and your control of your mouse and keyboard. The way KZ helps you control your keyboard is by helping you get faster at pressing different buttons cause there are a lot of aspects that go into making a jump.
Here is a basic KZ map. You start at the very bottom and have to make your way all the way to the top. Simple right?
Stutter Steping
Stutter steping is very good to know how to do and also very use full if you want to get better at the game as well. Stutter steping is basically a way of making yourself more accurate quicker when you stop. This helps with shoulder peaking and shooting but also to be more accurate faster when peaking an angle. But the way that it works is that when you let go of for example "D" you do not stop instantly you kind of slide a little bit and you are not accurate instantly sou stutter stepping is just instead of just letting go of "D" you tap "A" really fast so you stop instantly and then you are way more accurate. If you want a video explaining it just CLICK HERE. I have not made this video just if you were wondering which you probably weren't.
But I hope this helped you out in some way. For me the thing that I like to do the most is either bhop or surfing but I like doing all these things and I like to think that my movement is pretty good.
Thank you for taking the time to read through this and if you have question just ask and i'll answer them.
