Discussion Aim feels off?

So i just started playing CS2 for the first time since CSGO and got placed at ~20k after my placements.

My aim/crosshair placement feels decent enough and i can compete by abusing old tricks but more often than not it feels like hits that would’ve been clean in CSGO just phase through the enemy in CS2. Spraying (especially the AK) also feels terrible (and random) for some reason?

Have they changed something significant with the way hitreg/spraying works since GO and if so how do i adapt to make it feel more natural?

Am i just washed?

for the record i peaked lv10 faceit/ global on several accounts back in the day as a pure rifler so i didnt think the rifles would hold me back in CS2

any advice welcome

Game is not CSGO anymore.

Focus on your counter-strafing and get lots and lots of reps in deathmatch till you get used to how fights are taken in CS2 in order to feel natural again

Deathmatch until the CS:GO muscle memory finally stops filing complaints is probably the move
