1. Look carefully at the map you are playing

When you know the map you are playing, you can guide the way to play, know where the enemy is planning to attack, find a reasonable hiding place to avoid being shot and killed. Once you are well equipped, you will quickly plan your survival. Or you can use your time in "ghost mode" to see other players see how they move to find the most appropriate hiding place.

2. Select a combat weapon

In Counter-Strike game, there are many types of weapons to support combat, but each has a different effect and usage, you choose for yourself the most suitable weapon to use until when really mature with it. Do not waste money, time and effort to try another type of gun.

For beginners it is best to choose MP5navy (3-1) because it shoots very accurately and has low recoil, it is completely strong enough to hit several enemies, or can shoot a series without fear The gun was recoil and you didn't hit the target

3. Do not shoot continuously

If you are quite far from the opponent, you should not shoot continuously, it will be very costly but the effect is not high, it is easy to miss the target, unless you are at close range, try to shoot continuously. Because when fired continuously, the accuracy of each shot will decrease, when you shoot continuously, the fly's head will expand, showing that the bullets can fly anywhere, causing waste of bullets. And when you shoot one fly at a time the fly will shrink, making the next bullets will be more accurate. 

4. Use radar effectively

Radar helps you identify targets easily in  Counter Strike, showing your position and teammates on a small screen. Your position is the center, the intersection of the two lines on the radar, and the position of your teammates is the bright dots on the radar screen.

Teammates on the same floor will appear on the radar as a dot, teammates on one floor will appear as a "T", while teammates on a floor will appear as an inverted "T". If you see someone moving from afar, look on the radar to see if it is your partner. If you do not see to  "friendly fire " then please take a shot to make sure, lest "my life" at any time. When detached from your team, use radar to regroup. Radar is very useful, so use it effectively!

5. Do not run in straight lines

When running in a straight line you will easily be shot down by the enemy at any time, moving to the left, right and jumping continuously will avoid bullets better. Because when you are busy moving unfortunately the enemy appears behind you without knowing it is also harder to be hit. However, you should not overdo this, otherwise you will look like a "puppet" in the game!

6. Should stop and observe

If you run roaring in any situation, sooner or later will die, because when running will make a sound that the opponent can hear and ambush you. So stop, look around carefully, and listen to the steps of others. Use the go button instead of the run button to make it difficult for the opponent to locate your location!
