Lag in CS:GO can come from a few places, so let's Sherlock Holmes this! First, check your internet connection - it's usually the number one suspect. A slow or unstable connection will have you teleporting like you're Dr. Strange. Next up, your PC might be waving a white flag if it's not up to spec with the game's requirements. Make sure your hardware is ready for action! Lastly, don't overlook in-game settings. Cranking everything to ultra when your rig isn't a beast can cause performance issues. Try lowering some settings and see if that smooths things out. Elementary, my dear Watson!

Honestly, it could just be the server you're playing on. Some servers are like a mosh pit at a concert - too crowded and a bit chaotic. Try switching servers or playing at different times. Might just solve your lag dilemma.
