Complete Guide to becoming a Pro in L4D2

Ever wanted to become a professional L4D2 player but don't know how to start? This guide will help you become (or at least make you seem like) a professional L4D2 player!

Starting off!

Now, you must be thinking... How is this guide going to make me a pro in L4D2? We are going to start off with some bare essentials that will make you seem like a pro. I will also teach you how to play as the Survivors and Infected later on.

Autoexecs and other useful skills that you must learn before playing!

First off, download a autoexec.cfg from a certified pro competitive L4D2 player so you can have the same cool keybinds and other random ♥♥♥♥ as them! Such files can be obtained from https://sites.google.com/site/left4dead2stuff/customization/autoexec-archive. You can choose any pro player from this list, then simply save it over your own autoexec.cfg in your L4D2 Steam files! ♥♥♥♥ being original, because why be original when you can do this lol?!!!!one

Second, make sure you learn how to bhop! It's very important, because if you can't bhop, you'll make it very obvious that you are a noob! Even if you don't land the bhops, make sure you swing your mouse in tandem with your hops so it at least looks like you are trying! This is a useful guide for you to start off, credit to ProdigySim!

Third, make sure you turn your Steam profile to private so you can hide the pathetic amounts of hours you have compared to the pubstars and pros. If they can't see your hours, they can't use it against you. TOP KEK. Oh yes, be sure to turn on L4D2 24/7 until you have at least 1k hours, because that's when most people will find you a decent player and won't instant kick you!

Fourth, train your argumentative skills! Be sure to come up with intelligent comebacks such as NO U, get gud noob, lol pubs, mad cuz bad and other witty statements. This will come in handy because since you can't have a fist fight over the Internet, you can have a battle of words instead, like the Internet version of the special Olympics!

Fifth, buy a good set of headphones and a mic, because this game is serious business and pros communicate all the time with this. If you don't have enough money to do so, beg your parents to buy you one, because how can you be pro without this essential piece of ♥♥♥♥?

Playing as the Infected!

As you already know by now, there are many types of Infected. We are mostly concerned with the playable SIs and the witch though. This section will teach you to be a pr0 with all of the SI!

1) Hunter.

This is a very self explanatory SI. You hold crouch, then M1 to jump around! If you jump high enough before landing, you get gravity damage! Here's an example of some damage pounce spots.

Be sure to go for DPs all the time, and if you get skeeted or miss, simply say luck kid and continue trucking on! If it happens over and over, give up and go for M2s and say ez scratch.

2) Jockey.

Remember bhopping? This is where it comes in useful. Be sure to jump and bhop every alternate jump so you look pro jumping across the entire map! If you get M2ed, M2 him back until you die. Ez.

3) Boomer.

Learn to rocket boom, which includes moving as fast as you can in ghost mode before jumping and spawning while the survivors still can't see you. If done right, you can boom or proxy the survivors and then type ez. Make sure you bhop just after rocket spawning so you can jump around corners. It's very important!!! kappa





4) Charger.

Be sure to rocket with this too! If you miss the charge, be sure to turn around and m2, because the 10 damage can stack up! Make sure you say ez punches so your team knows you aren't a complete moron for charging 10 light years away!

5) Spitter.

Just spit on anyone that gets pounced or charged as a priority, or spit delay at chokes or anything. Ez.

6) Smoker.

Pretty straightforward, just shoot your tongue with M1 over and over. If you get close enough or someone keeps cutting your tongue, just walk in front and M2, saying ez scratch again!!!



7) Bloater.

You gotta set this guy on fire or use your pro shotgun skills to shoot it at point blank range... Sorry skip this part, wrong game LOL.



8) Tank.

Oh yes, the most crucial SI, and if you screw this up, your team is going to get mad! Don't worry though! Remember bhopping? Just bhop with the tank in and you can get some dank wipes like Luckylock!

Also, learn to jumprock and curve rocks, there's a video linked below on how to do it! Even if you miss, you still look pro! Also, for long arms, change your lerp higher as the tank!

9) Witches.

You can aggro the witch so the survivors can't crown normally and are forced to draw crown. Just m2 it. Ez. Be sure to set up around witches because 99% of the time noobs can't crown and it's a guaranteed incap!

Oh yes, if you get killed by a T2 weapon, just say nice T2 weapon m8. If you get killed by T2 spam, just say lol t2 spam. Ez.

If you get an early wipe, be sure to rub it in, but make sure you don't get wiped at the same spot!

Playing as the Survivors!

Now, for the most important part of the guide!

1) Taking the correct weapon.

Never take any T2 weapon. Stick to the pump shotgun all the way, throwing it away for the chrome shotgun whenever you see it. Only pros use T1 weapons! If you like spamming bullets everywhere, take the uzi, all you need to do is just press M1 and move your mouse LOL.

2) Bhopping.

As mentioned earlier, keep bhopping the entire game! If you get all the way in front, laugh at your team for being noobs. If you can't bhop, just act like you are bhopping LOL.

3) Handling the SI.

When you see a charger, be sure to have your melee weapon out 24/7! Try to level it all the time. If you miss, blame it on your computer or your ping, whatever gets you out of looking nooby. Here's a guide on how to level.

If you see a smoker, be sure to take out a weapon that can cut the smoker tongue like a crowbar, katana, etc. Keep trying to cut it so you can have a Mexican standoff and you make the smoker look like a retard. Be sure to type LOL every time you cut the tongue because it's so funny!!!111!!1one.

If you see a hunter, take out your shotgun and try to skeet it! Always M2 after you M1 because it makes you look pro.

Always clear your teammates! It helps if you kill the most ♥♥♥♥, because it makes you look pro.

Also, draw crown all witches because it separates noobs from the pros. If you miss, blame it on the lag.



4) Calling for help.

Whenever you get capped or horded, be sure to use your mic! It's very important to say some phrases so your teammates knows what is happening 24/7. Shout out every single spawn you see over the mic, so your teammates know what to do! Some useful phrases include...

a) _____ died!
b) WHERE'S MY BACKUP!!!!!111!1one
c) You guys are ♥♥♥♥ learn to play this game!!!one!111rage121
d) SPAWNS ARE UP YO
e) TANK!!! TANK!!!!
f) WITCH!!!
g) I NEED SOME BACKUP NOW!!!111one!111
h) THEY ARE GOING TO ATTACK AT THE SAME SPOT WE ATTACKED THEM LOL

Be sure to blame your team if you are getting wrecked for any reason.



5) Important notes.

Be sure to use confogl binds in vanilla servers! This includes ♥♥♥♥ like !tank, !cur, !lerps, !rates, !health, etc. Even if they don't work, you look like a complete pro visiting vanilla games. If anyone questions this, tell them to shut up because they aren't pros.

If you are getting wrecked, kick noobs and invite other pro players in to reverse their game! Be sure to trashtalk after reversing, or if you can identify a pro player, be sure to ask him for a 1v1 because shooting hunters at point blank range is so hard and totally separates the pros from the noobs. If you still get rekt after calling in pro friends, you can now accuse them of hacking because pros don't get rekt!!!111111one111, be sure to ask them to stop hacking as if they get caught they will get VAC B7!!! O noes!

Finally, be sure to remember every game you win, and take screenshots and spam them whenever you are losing, so you prove that you are pro. Bonus points for making an album over a few thousand hours of playing this game.

PS: If you can't kick the noobs or you have no friends to invite, just say lol this team is ♥♥♥♥ and rq. Be sure to have a keybind for this so you don't waste time finding another game to stomp.

Conclusion!

You are now on your way to becoming a pro! Good luck becoming a pubstar/pro L4D2 player.

"Third, make sure you turn your Steam profile to private so you can hide the pathetic amounts of hours you have compared to the pubstars and pros."

This is why I kick players with private profiles as well, so it's somewhat counterproductive. Don't hide the fact that you suck, play on the difficulty where you belong until you're ready for a higher one. You're only pissing off other players while you probably don't have a lot of fun yourself, so do everyone a favor.
