If you don’t want to play games that affect your Rank, other game modes include Casual, Deathmatch, War Games, and Danger Zone. These modes see different objectives, maps, and modifiers. You could have bomb defusal or hostage rescue as the primary goal, too, and each mode generally runs a lot shorter than a ranked match.


Valorant is a game that puts a lot more emphasis on the guns than most hero shooters out there. In fact, that focus on guns and the shop system were pages taken directly from Counter Strike's book. This might be the game for those who dislike the hero part of Riot's shooter since each does something better than the oth

An advantage to Prime Status is that it deters many cheaters, who have been a constant problem in the player base. In fact, it’s become common to join casual lobbies that have many hackers in the pool. This rise in cheaters is expected with any free-to-play game with a limited anti-cheat engine. Valve also maintains that Prime Status will remain locked by paywall to prevent 'smurfing' – experienced players making new accounts to wreck the lower ranks.

Of course, there are endless opportunities with CS:GO grenades - some more difficult, and some easier. This article shows some options, which are easy to learn, remember, and utilise. Don't forget that it's fine to use grenades without using lineups as well. Ultimately, the purpose of lineups is to make your gameplay easier and assist you in avoiding peaking in dangerous situati
