Reactions Are Overrated |

Views: 154 People ask me all the time how they can improve their reaction time. I always just tell them to ask Method. He DOES have the fastest reaction time in the world afterall. But for those of us who are just hopeless when it comes to improving our reactions, how can we gain the upper hand?
an·tic·i·pa·tion - Foreknowledge, intuition, and presentiment.
That is how. Anticipation is one of the most useful skills you can develop as a player. It is something my soccer coach always tried to force into my mind, "Don't react; anticipate." If you anticipate what an opponent is going to do you can stop it from happening and prevent disaster much easier than if you react to what they do.
This skill is something that comes with experience. As I got better at the game, I began to notice that I would look at the right places 75% of the time. If there were two entrances to watch for some reason the enemy would come out of the entrance I was looking at. It is a talent that you barely ever notice yourself doing.
One of the best ways to improve your anticipation is by communicating with your team. A team who is constantly talking and communicating to eachother what they see and hear during a round gives all of their players an idea of where on the map their enemies are located. That gives you, as a player, a chance to anticipate where they team is going to attack. If you do it correctly, you can gain a crucial couple seconds on a rotation from Long A to Bombsite B, or from the CT Spawn to Bombsite A.
The in-game leader of your team is the one who should be the best at anticipating opponents. He should be able to read them as rounds go on, but even before a round starts he should have a good idea what an enemy is going to do. His calls are what allow you to set up stacks like this when he thinks they will attack middle or catwalk.
Reactions aren't as important as you might think. Stop beating yourself up over your lack of reactions. Learn to read your opponents. When you learn how to anticipate what your opponent is going to do, you will be able to counter it by doing something completely unexpected and you will become a more dangerous player, and a more effective teammate.
