When you start the pistol round on T:

Call a B rush to your team, then you and your premades rush long. NO flashes!
Make sure 1 player camps in T spawn and kills all CTs down mid with a glock.
When the player who went B realizes the bamboozle and starts to flame, it's time to push up to A site.
Best tactic is to go 1 by 1 and crouch in the middle of LONG (this way the glock is more accurate).

Plant and EZ win.
Make sure to peek after plant!



When you start the pistol round on CT:

Rush mid as fast as possible.
1 player MUST have dual berettas to cover you!

Rule 1: Try to force armor + deagle as much as possible! This almost always wins!

Rule 2: The AWPer must camp on T spawn for as long as possible, save the AWP for next round if possible, it is key to have good weapons! You must NEVER go long with an AWP!

Rule 3: P90 B rush is an old yet strong and unbeatable strategy! Takes thousands of hours to master such a complex spray control.

Rule 4: Teamflashing on Dust is KEY. Remember, if you don't see them, they don't see you!

Rule 5: Let your team know that when you die, it's not your fault! This will motivate them to help you more and reduces toxicity!

Rule 6: When an enemy kills you, always say that he, she or it is low HP. This will give your team confidence to push them!

Rule 7: Armor is not as important as you might think! BUY THAT AWP! An awp gives you a great advantage, especially when your team is doing an "ECO" round (against RULE 1)

ONLY 1 RULE AS A CT:

RUSH YOUR ENEMY, THEY WILL NOT EXPECT THIS


Other rules:

• When your teammate dies on a site make sure to ask multiple times if the enemy is pushing!

• It is always good to hold LONG from car. The car allows a great escape option (press G to get in)

• 1 person is enough to hold long!

• Always contest the AWP on mid, it's basically a free kill. Your best option is a pistol or an SMG.

• When playing long, try to look into the enemy flash to see where it's coming from (refreshes your eyesight too)

DUST 2 belongs to the Russians, you do NOT tell the BOT to hold a position. In Soviet Russia the bot tells you what to do!

KEY WORDS FOR CLEAR COMMUNICATION:

• A long: Somewhere long, all low HP

• Mid: Mid, tagged with AWP

• B tunnels (1 step): RUSHING B, HELP!

Communicating in other languages:

• Russian: Drop AWP/P90 and mute them

• Turkish: Always ask about the kebab (as a wise Turkish man once said, "csipos? minden mehet?)
  then proceed to mute them

• EU: Mute if UK, France, or any other country.

• NA: Nice flash!

• Asia: Really?? Nani!!
