Counter-Strike has always been a game of precision and high-skilled gunplay, but with the introduction of CS2, the economy game has never been more important. The update to MR12, rather than MR15 (max rounds), has made each round count that much more. Matches are frequently decided long before the first duals on any given round. It’s a game of smart financial decisions, as having an AK over a pistol in your hands will give you rounds again and again.
This CS2 economy guide breaks down the correct approach to rounds in your ranked matches, suitable for all skill levels.
