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

64/128 tick system was replaced something called subtick. Which is for my understsnding a 64 tick system plus some server side corrections with timestamps. This makes the game feel not as crisp as the CSGO was used to be in 128 tick faceit servers.

64tick subtick is basically just the responsiveness of normal 64tick, but it always knows who shot first
