Weapon accuracy in CS2 plays a crucial role in determining match outcomes. Understanding and mastering these mechanics will significantly improve your gameplay performance.

Basics of Accuracy

Each weapon has an effective range, measured in meters, where it can accurately hit a target equivalent to a 30cm diameter plate (roughly head-sized). Accuracy depends primarily on:

• Recoil: Upward crosshair movement when firing, controllable through opposite direction pulling
• Spread: Random bullet deviation from crosshair center, increases with continuous firing

Movement Impact on Accuracy:

• Stationary (Standing/Crouching): Highest accuracy, crouching improves it further
• Walking: Reduced accuracy, useful for quiet movement
• Running: Significant accuracy decrease
• Jumping: Severe accuracy penalties
• Strafing/Stutter-Stepping: Momentarily stopping before firing improves accuracy

Most Accurate Weapons

Weapon accuracy varies based on stance, fire rate, and specific characteristics. Skilled players can maximize accuracy through proper recoil management and burst control.

Improving Accuracy

Key Tips:

1. Practice recoil control in training maps
2. Maintain crosshair placement at head level
3. Use burst and tap firing for better control
4. Master the strafe-stop technique
5. Learn individual weapon characteristics
6. Regular aim training for muscle memory

Remember that consistency in practice and understanding these fundamentals will lead to improved accuracy and better performance in matches. Focus on mastering one aspect at a time and gradually incorporate these elements into your gameplay.
