You may wonder what it is, well i will tell you what is Counter Strike Syndrome, Counter Strike Syndrome or CSS (lmao) is where an online game has a community so competitive where you are unable to be good and get good. The reason its called CSS is because the first game i played with it was CSS. Some games with it, CS 1.6/Source/GO, Phantom Forces (lmao,) Day of Defeat, Half Life Deathmatch, Classic Deathmatch, Richoshit and much more, the reason most of them are valve games are because its valve. And thats CSS.

i agree with you. how the fuck am i supposed to get better at the game when i keep getting killed by these people who are so much better at the game than me?

counter strik scares me 

Play with bots, Like in xash3d, i use bots when i am unable to get a nice wifi connection, It gets easier.
