Prefiring and crosshair placement are one of the most important aspects of aiming in my opinion, raw aim and spray control are super important but they aren’t going to get you instant frags that can turn the 5v5 into a 5v4 and swing the round heavily in your favour at the start

You’re absolutely right about that and I honestly share the same opinion. Perhaps I should have emphasized that more during the video. Either way, thank you for the feedback!

Great video, while I am only average at the game it's interesting to see how such little things can lead to improvement. I started around 2014 maybe 2013 gaining 1.5k hours on a macbook air. At that time I was pretty conpetitive and often played long into the nights gaining level 5 on faceit. But because I neglected a lot of things I took a step back for several years. Around 2021 is when I decided to return and by 2023 I noticed a sizeable improvement. While I dont play Faceit or matchmaking that much anymore, how I play and my general performance in the game has improved. Right now im still getting my life settled so I am still trying to return to a competitve level.

As someone who knew all of these steps but I just can't be bothered to do them and I accept being lower skilled, I think the most important part of this video is that these tips can apply to any skill. Just be consistent by doing something, even a bit, every day. Always focus the most on the very basics. Try to analyze your fails. And most importantly, the #1 thing, have fun. If you're patient, you will get better. If you won't be #1, then at least you had fun.
