Playing CS:GO with high ping can be challenging, but not impossible! First off, adjust your playstyle to be more cautious since your reaction time might be slightly off. Stick to roles that don't require instant reactions, like support or lurker. Use utility wisely to gain an advantage without needing to engage in fast-paced shootouts. Also, communicate clearly with your team about your high ping situation, so they can adjust their strategies accordingly. Lastly, preemptively position yourself in spots where you can compensate for the lag by anticipating enemy movements.

Honestly, high ping in CS:GO is a nightmare. It's better to focus on fixing your internet connection or finding servers closer to your location. Playing with high ping puts you and your team at a disadvantage, no matter the strategy.

High ping? No problem! Just make sure to pre-fire common angles and spots. With the lag, you might just catch someone off-guard. Also, playing defensively helps because you force the enemy to come into your line of fire, giving your connection a bit more time to catch up.
