How to stay calm in every situation!
By Fluff3y3
To become a good player you have to stay calm in any situation you will encounter in CSGO.
Otherwise you will do mistakes, many of them, while beeing stressed.

Why is beeing calm so important?
As I said, getting stressful in important moments in a match (e.g. clutches, 1 vs 1, enemy rush) is not good.
People are doing mistakes, as forgetting the spray patterns or basic mechanics while stressed.

I had the problem a very long time, until I made it to Master Guardian Elite.

Important
Firstly, you have to accept theese points. Otherwise you better stop playing Competetive.

-It is a GAME. Loosing in Matchmaking is not the end of the world.
-Your teammates are only humane, they cant clutch 1 vs 5 so easily. Dont flame.
-Flaming about Teammates is not the key to win. It will lead to internal social problems among the team mates.
-Erase the possibility of hackers out of your brain. Imagine, that everybody plays legit.
People who are killing you over and over again possess a better game sense than you.
Also you will not encounter any hacker to Rank Master Guardian Elite. No Hacker is under that.
Or do you really think a hacker is Silver 4? Probably a smurf, so dont worry.

How to stay calm

Firstly, it is important to be less emotional while playing CSGO. I am a very emotional person in real life, so getting started for me in CSGO was very hard, as I was really upset losing a round.
I know, you cant really "turn off" your emotions while playing CSGO, but this calm is generated by your growing skill and game sense.

Example:
All 5 Terrorists are rushing A-Short on Dust2. Noobs would freak out, as they see them and would do terrible mistakes because of high stress.
As(s) you become skilled in the game, or know how to react to certain enemy moves, like rushing or complex tactics, you will be able to stay calm, because you know exactly what to do in this situation.
Thats why players in Frag Movies look so rational and skilled. They know what to do, thats why they stay calm.

Also:
There are players who fear me and are afraid to encounter me on certain spots. Thats absolutly the wrong way to win a match.
Beeing afraid of certain players, because they are better then you is totally false.
Concentrate on the player, maybe call your mates to kill him with combined force. But DONT ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ run away.

Also:
Winning a 3,4,5 Clutch is real. You can easily win this situation. It is only possible when staying 100% calm and acting 100% rational.
Dealing with 5 Players is a very hard situation for the clutch player, most Beginners would rush or try to disable the bomb. Why?
See. Dealing with 5 people and having 5 HP is only possible for highly skilled players, combined with a huge load of luck or problems in the formation of the enemy. It is not possible to win this, under regular conditions.
Do Exit Frags. Wait until the bomb explodes and try to surprise a player fleeing from the bombsite. Atleast one kill boosts your team economy. And... Killing a player and staying alive is much better for your wallet than killing two players and dieing.

Then...
Beeing highly concentrated is the key. You have to "transform" the fear or stress into a high concentration, wich allows you to use all your skills you obtained while you played CSGO.
Your aim will automaticly improve as you are concentrated and not afraid of any situation in the game.


Some ending sentences...

A friend of mine is.. for about a year still Silver Elite. He has almost the same playtime as I have.
His biggest problem is... He is nervous. He is a skilled player, but is not able to use this skill in stressful situations.
He forgets to reload, changes position without facing the enemy, so the can get shot in his back, he sprays on 50m distance.

And all theese massive mistakes are caused by the stress you have.

Good luck getting calm and not dripping with sweat :D
