Quick switching in CS:GO is all about speed and efficiency. The fastest way is to use the 'Q' key by default, which switches between your last used weapon and your current one. So, if you've just fired a shot with the AWP, hit 'Q' to switch to your secondary and 'Q' again to switch back to the AWP. This cancels the slow animation of the AWP, letting you move quicker. You can also set up a specific bind in the console for even faster switching, like binding your mouse wheel to swap between weapons.

Pro tip: don't rely on quick switch too much; it's handy, but knowing when to use it is what separates the pros from the amateurs. It's about timing, not just spamming 'Q'.

'Q' is overrated. Real pros buy dualies and never switch.
