What is sraying?
Spray control is the ability for players to control the weapon's recoil during continuous firing, also known as "spraying."
Understanding what spray is and how it works is the first step to mastering spray control.
Spray is produced when players continuously fire their weapon without releasing the fire button. This action results in a spray of bullets that, without control, can be wildly inaccurate. In addition, the gun's recoil causes the aim to drift upward and often sideways, causing the bullets to deflect away from the crosshair's point of focus. Finally, the deflection increases with each subsequent bullet, making it increasingly difficult to hit accurately during a burst.
Maintaining Spray Control in CS2 is not easy, but it's not impossible either. It is a technique that you will undoubtedly be able to improve and perfect if you constantly play the game.
Spray patterns
Spray control is not just about shooting bullets; it's about knowing when, how, and where to aim. It's about understanding the game's physics, the weapons' behavior, and the battlefield's dynamics. Ultimately, it's about turning the chaos of a firefight into a dance of precision and strategy.
Let's talk about the importance of understanding the spray pattern. Each weapon in CS2 has a unique spray pattern, as we mentioned earlier. This pattern is the trajectory that the bullets follow when you hold down the fire button. In addition, you should also note that some guns have a simple vertical spray pattern, while others have a more complex pattern that includes horizontal movement. The key to spray control is to learn these patterns and practice compensating for them.


Glock-18
Glock-18 Spray Pattern
Spray from the glock moves up steadily.
Tips on Glock-18 recoil compensation:

- Shoot at the enemy, aiming at the head and stomach
- Switch to three bullets mode when an opponent is very close, aiming at the head
USP-S
USP-S Spray Pattern
Spray with USP-S moves up steadily.
Tips on USP-S recoil compensation:

- Save bullets - the magazine contains 12 bullets
- Shoot one bullet at a time, aiming at the head (kills if hit in the head without armor)
P2000
P2000 Spray Pattern
Spray with P2000 moves up steadily.
Tips on P2000 recoil compensation:

- Save bullets - the magazine contains 13 bullets
- Shoot one bullet at once, aiming at the head
P250
P250 Spray Pattern
Spray with P250 moves up and slightly shakes to the sides.
Tips on P250 recoil compensation:

- Shoot in the head, when hit, keep shooting in the stomach (not chest)
Desert Eagle
Desert Eagle Spray Pattern
Spray with Desert Eagle moves to the sides and sharply upwards, shooting in different directions.
Tips on Desert Eagle recoil compensation:

- Only the first bullet flies directly at your target.
- One hit to the head will kill an enemy even with a helmet.
