: Now that you know how to find your enemy, you must now know how to acquire him as a target. Acquiring your target means more than simply putting him in your crosshairs, although that's the key concept behind it. It's the step before actually fragging your opponent. The calm before the storm, the focus before the action. You literally prepare your opponent to be destroyed.

The most undesireable position is to be aiming at your opponent while he's trying to aim at you. A square up toe-to-toe match up. This is simply a test of aiming ability, a skill easily enough developed (over time, that is ) and I will go over that later on in this guide.

The BEST position is to be aiming at your opponent from his flank or back, catching him unaware. Sweeping away all his skill and techical know-how, dropping him in one fell shot, and moving on.

You do this primarily by timing. In order to have good timing, you'll have to know the map well, the "spawns" well, and the popular movements of both teams. Knowing the maps is default, basic stuff, knowing the spawns means knowing exactly where you are when you spawn at your spawn, and, if from that position, you can beat your opponents to another position.

A good example of this is on Office. When as a T, you spawn between the front double doors, you can easily rush to the office area before the CTs and set up your ambush there.

But it doesn't necessarily have to be an out-right surprise flanking maneuver. You also have the option of engaging the enemy directly, being careful to stay out of his crosshairs. Again, on Office, an excellent position for this is the Bathroom at the end of Long Hall. you can successfully guard both the Short Hall leading to Office or the Sniper Hall from the Stairs. (If you're skilled, you can even watch Garage forces, but if not, your team should be able to hold that easily enough).

The cabinets are what provide you the cover you need for the advantage. They guard you from snipers, and remove a firing angle from your opposition. You, however, can shoot them as they enter from the stairs, or as they move into position to assault the Long Hall. Most of the time, you can catch them off guard this way.

 Just when they think its clear to come Sniper Hall, you throw a few rounds at'em and rush back to Short Hall as their grenades go off in Bathroom. But you don't stop, because as you round the corner, there's a couple in Short Hall either aiming for you or for Long Hall. You take them out as well, and quickly move back in position. You do this back 'n forth until A.) They're all dead, B.) You're overwhelmed and must retreat or C.) one hall clears.

C is your objective. Say Sniper hall is clear, you move behind the cabinets, flash the stairway (in case of stragglers) then move to the hall junctioning the two and flank the Short Hall force. Vice versa. (There's a tidbit for Jeff who wanted some Office ideas )

Now that's simply a tactic for holding Office as a T, but it applies to SAFE. SAFE is tactics. Everything in SAFE is interconnected and blends in with each other. But the concepts you should remember are upsetting your opponents rhythm, whether by harassment, surprise, threat 'n danger (as in 'oh fux i have a glock and he has an awp :O') and developing your own rhythm (such as the spawn example).

You can develop your own rhythm in all instances, whether spawn rushing, weapon combos, routes, camp spots, etc. But remember to keep your rhythm fluid and changing, and not stagnant and predictable. Most of all, don't allow your opponent to disrupt you. 

Sometimes it's better to select the losing team to develop speed shooting, or reflex shooting, or twitch shooting, whatever it is you call it (you'll know you're developing it correctly when others call it aimbot ) The reason for this is because losing adds a sense of urgency to each round, and the potential for danger is high. Threat response trains speed. The knowledge that you have to act faster and more accurate than your opponent demands your nerves to react faster. But in order to train reflex shooting, specifically for headshots, you've got to first practice headshots.

For headshots, select the FAMAS and set it to 3 round burst. This is a natural skull buster if I ever saw. Don't let it's short ammo clip get you killed, it's an 8 shooter.

This is where ASMS comes into play, from the Patriot, Aim Small, Miss Small. Aim for their head, and don't miss. If you have a deagle or famas, there's little room for error. A mistake will cost you your round. But in practice, you shouldn't let this get you frustrated. Instead, when your time comes and you must spectate the rest of the round out, reflect on what you did and what happened.

Actively try to aim for the head. Force yourself to move the cursor onto your opponents face and THEN fire. At first, you'll be as slow as molasses in december. But gradually, you'll get faster and faster. It'll be hard at first. Everything's hard at first. But you WILL get better because you're training your nervous system not just to act 'n react, but to interact and respond under pressure. 

In order to develop accurate aiming, you'll have to familiarize yourself with the variety of weapons CS:S has to offer. I don't advise randomly selecting any weapon, or a weapon you don't normally use. Instead, do it in a planned, methodical manner so that you can measure your success.

I advise that you choose a set of Core Weapons and incorporate them as your main arsenal. Train in them and only them. For example, master the Glock and USP since they are the default weapons at the beginning of any map. Or perhaps the Deagle.

Also, do weapon combos. Work M4A1/USP action or /deagle. AK/Glock. Get used to switching between weapons in combat, and get used to dropping dry weapons for others scattered around you. This has saved me a number of times.

It's faster to switch to your pistol, or to drop and pick up another weapon than to reload. Investigate this for yourself thoroughly

As the saying goes, the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. And you can only proceed step by step. So don't rush it. Don't try to run when you're learning to walk. Think. Put to practices these tenets today and leave behind the poorly skilled tomorrow and over come the skilled later. When you begin to unconciously take shots accurately, even headshots, in surprise or what not, you will know you're closer to mastering reflex shooting. Remember, until you've internalized these techniques, and until you've investigated them for yourself, you won't get any better.


For now, that's enough. I'll let you chew on that for a little while before I move on to tactics & strategy. It's almost 8 and I've got dinner at the Red Lobster and a movie planned for the evening

You want something that allows you to move you crosshair with a persons head as he run away slowly, but not so slow that you can't turn around if someone flanks you. Try not to change your sensitivity at all if possible to keep aim as consistent as possible because it helps majorly when flicking the mouse to an enemy. If you are to fast you have less of a chance to be accurate and over flick the enemy.
