CS:GO – Quick Guides, Latest News, and Handy Tips

Welcome to the CS:GO hub on Velocity Motorsport. Whether you’re fresh out of the tutorial or a seasoned rifler, you’ll find straight‑to‑the‑point info that helps you play better. We keep things simple: no jargon, just the stuff that matters in a match.

Basic Stuff You Need to Know

CS:GO is a team‑based shooter where two sides—terrorists and counter‑terrorists—compete in bomb‑plant or hostage‑rescue rounds. The goal is to win rounds by completing the objective or outshooting the enemy. Each round lasts 1 minute and 55 seconds, and you have $800 + any saved cash at the start of every round.

Money matters. Buy a rifle when you can afford it, but don’t blow all your cash on flashy skins. A solid loadout usually looks like an AK‑47 for terrorists, an M4A4 or M4A1‑S for CTs, a pistol, a defuse kit (CT only), and a couple of grenades.

Map Knowledge & Positioning

Knowing the map beats raw aim every time. On Dust 2, learn the "catwalk" and "long A" spots, then use that knowledge to surprise opponents. On Mirage, focus on the mid‑area and watch for ladder rotations. Spend a few minutes each match walking the map without shooting—just see where you can hide, where you can spot enemies, and where you can escape.

Positioning matters more than you think. Holding a corner at shoulder height makes you an easy target. Try to stay at eye level, peek quickly, and retreat if you hear a gunshot from another direction. Good positioning lets you control angles and forces enemies to make mistakes.

Timing is another hidden skill. Learn the bomb‑plant timer (45 seconds) and sync your pushes with your teammates. If you rush too early, you walk into a well‑set defense. If you wait too long, you lose the element of surprise. A quick “flash‑bang‑push‑plant” combo can flip a round in seconds.

Practice these basics in casual or deathmatch mode, then bring them into competitive. Remember, every win starts with solid fundamentals, not just fancy aim.
