99% of the time it's a timing issue not so much the placing.

That being said...

And I'm the guilty one probably most of the time :D

Then I can come right back to communication. You need to protect your entry fragger by simple communication and allow the team to pick up the trade. There are so many examples that I can make with T rushes. For example, Dust 2 T-side pistol round starts, everyone agrees to rush B, and the 2nd and 3rd entry player decides to throw a flash without muttering a word or they themselves over smoke B. The entry fragger turns his back on entering B to compensate for the flash, the moment he turns around, boom second flash, and I will guarantee you that entry player 2 and 3, and maybe 4, will also be flashed, now player 4 or 5 which is watching lowers needs to pick up the slack, boom – headshot.

Timing I can understand, especially when the player which is nading does not know the enemy’s position which is a regular occurrence when 2 players play long A on Dust2. You get those times when the opposition is entering on nading at the right time, that is when holding a position goes fubar.

All very true. in a pick-up comp though...

I smoke short on DUSTII always and only rush it every so often. When I do, I call it and tell them I'm flashing short. Only to hear them whine when they ran down mid, jumped the small wall onto short in the smoke and getting flashed by myself. Just but one example.

Another example. I always flash more to the right on DUSTII long and just before they enter long doors. But if I go for the long pick... ALWAYS FLASHED!

Sometimes when I play casual, and some guys on my team take it too seriously I flash them. Nothing like a flash to bring balance to the force.

So you are the one.

:D Depends.

At least I play on only one account, though I have a spare which I have used more than 2 years ago.

Casual is about being casual or to warmup on the aim or so on, and a good reason to mute the mic at times. I care zero schits about toxic players and people thinking that casual is where the real competition is at. The only times when I behave like a dick in casual is when I must deal with a similar variety.

When you have these types in competitive mode on your team there is a good chance that you will lose the match. But I'm all having interesting characters on the team, nothing quite like humour to spur on the moment.

There is nothing like a 12 to 16-year-old calling out your mom’s… you know, keep it classy.

In casual the 'block communication' button is your friend. By the end of the match I usually have half the players muted :D

I play pretty much always with chat disabled. Simply because I don't think I would enjoy casual if I had to listen to half the people talk.

I did not expect Faze (ahem, G2) to punish SK like this...

Edit: Oops, made an error in a hurry. Faze bought G2

Don't think I will be playing any time soon. The good LTE tower near me has died so my router only sees one very far away with weak stats. My download is still good @ 30mbps average but my upload is barely 1mbps and online seems jittery as hell

What is up with these Afrikaans people being degenerate in the GOTV chat stream? There is no attractiveness to their behaviour. Disgusting to be honest, knowing how these little schits will grow up, some are probably adults already. No intelligence at all.

They are just being afrikaners.

I don't even look at that...googled for a few minutes to see how to turn it off but didn't get anywhere.

All I see is a stream of /reward and /gift.
