Pausing the match timer in CS:GO is super handy in competitive play, especially if you need a strategic timeout or if someone's having tech issues. If you're playing in a server with the right permissions, you can simply type 'mp_pause_match' in the console to pause the game. Remember, you need admin rights to do this, so it's mostly for custom servers or if you're running a match.

Had to use 'mp_pause_match' during a league game once 'cause one of our guys got disconnected. Works like a charm, but make sure you're the admin or got permission, or else it's a no-go.

lol no, you guys, you can't just pause a match in the middle of a public game. Imagine the chaos if everyone could do that. Admin rights or not, this is why we can't have nice things in matchmaking.
