Budgeting Barry

The economy in CS:GO is all about making smart financial decisions. If your team is broke, sometimes it's better to do a 'save round' where you buy nothing or just a pistol, so you can afford rifles and equipment in the next round. This is called 'eco' or 'save round'. The idea is to balance your spending to ensure you're not caught with just a pistol against a fully kitted enemy team. Also, keep in mind the 'loss bonus' - the game gives you increasing amounts of money for consecutive losses, which helps teams come back from a bad start.

Alex the Strategist

CS:GO's economy system is pretty simple but critical to winning the game. Think of it as a budgeting exercise - each player starts with a certain amount of in-game money, which they can use to buy weapons, grenades, and gear at the start of each round. You earn more money by winning rounds, killing enemies, planting the bomb (if you're a Terrorist), or defusing the bomb (if you're a Counter-Terrorist). But, if you lose rounds, you'll earn less, forcing you to strategize on when to spend or save. So, managing your team's economy is key to having the firepower to outgun your opponents!
