Spray patterns in Counter-Strike 2 follow predictable patterns that can be mastered through practice and understanding. Here's a comprehensive breakdown of the most important weapons and their control techniques.

AK-47

• Initial bullets move straight up
• Later bullets shift side-to-side randomly
• Control: Pull down mouse, then adjust left/right
• Best for: Medium to close range encounters

M4A1-S

• Upward movement with slight left-right sway
• More controllable than AK-47
• Control: Steady downward pull with minor horizontal adjustments
• Excels at mid-range combat

M4A4

• Faster fire rate than M4A1-S
• Sharp left-right sway pattern
• Control: Pull down while matching horizontal movements

SMGs Overview:

• P90: Mostly vertical recoil, easiest to control
• MP7: Vertical with slight left drift
• MAC-10: Sharp upward pattern
• UMP-45: Moderate vertical recoil
• MP9: Fast fire rate, vertical pattern

Core Control Techniques:

1. Pull down to counter vertical recoil
2. Make small horizontal adjustments
3. Counter-strafe before shooting
4. Practice burst firing for long range
5. Use full sprays only at close range

Training Tips:

• Use custom training maps
• Practice daily for 20 minutes
• Start with static targets
• Progress to moving targets
• Focus on one weapon at a time

Common Mistakes:

• Spraying at long distances
• Not resetting recoil between sprays
• Making excessive mouse movements
• Using incorrect sensitivity settings

Recommended Settings:

• Mouse sensitivity: 1.5-2.0
• Clear, static crosshair
• Minimal visual effects
• Consistent frame rate

Practice these patterns consistently to develop muscle memory and improve accuracy in competitive play.
