Counter-strafing in CS:GO is all about stopping your movement quickly to make your shots more accurate. Basically, if you're moving left (holding the A key), quickly tap the D key to stop. This makes your aim accurate again almost instantly. Practice this in a private match or deathmatch to get the timing down. It's all about muscle memory, so keep at it!

Tap the opposite movement key, simple as that. If you're moving right, tap left. If moving left, tap right. Speed is key.

Counter-strafing? Overrated. Just aim better. 🤷

Honestly, just practice. Counter-strafing seems hard at first but gets super easy once you've done it enough. It seriously improved my game when I got it down.
