The best keyboard layout for CS:GO is the QWER/SDF/CV type which I have tested and works well with a titled keyboard.

The thumb controls keys SPACE if you can C
The index finger controls keys C and F or V
The mid finger controls keys E, D and R and if you can S
The fourth finger controls key W only yet if you can R
The last small finger controls key Q and TABS

BACKSPACE - acts as default Z for communication, rather you can use any key say D, F, R, T closest to your fingers.

SPACE- jump
C- crouch
W- walk
E-strafe left
F-strafe right
Q- backwards
R- enter/action (used rarely)

you have noticed there is no reload key coz i use a scroll ball optic mouse. i recommend the scroll ball coz it does two things reload/change weapons. Strike it hard front to back to reload or easy to change weapons. Always use your keyboard in a tilted position so as not to tire your fingers in a 30 round competitive match. Tailor these keys to your preferences. Remember learning is a slow process but in the long run you gonna game like a ESEA PRO.

You are new and fresh for this game of guns causing total havok and yet you think after mastering an earlier FPS you are the man on this next one. But no!! Some many of us have mastered the use of gamepads in gaming> Quick keystrokes, juggles and jerks but no one really knows how to dance the keystrokes.

Number 2:- You dont understand modes of CS:GO, maps and weaponry... not to worry here is what to do:-

1. Open CS:GO Choose any map you want to use
2. Press 3. As you notice it toggles the developer's GUI
4. Type in 5. Type in this is for crosshair attributes
6. make sure CVAR is 2,3,4 or 5

Back-up
P250(CT),,P250/Desert Eagle(T)

Long-range
5/7(CT),,Tec 9(T)

Open Yard
USPS/CZ75(CT),,Tec 9 / CZ75(T)

ECO---USPS(CT)...P2000(T)..Gloak sucks


5/7 is the best small arm in terms of Firing rate, Rate of piercing through body armor and Reload timing. USPS is a more quiet pistol only available for CT side and can be used in open yard where you dont want to give away your position. P250 is best for short bursts.. hit below the chest twice thrice precisely and drop him/her down.Desert Eagle/Night Hawk.50c is outright nasty ..headshots will drop any armor down so use it when you are cornered or caught pants down "reloading" hehhe.

------------------------------------------------------------------


Close Quarters
Nova(CT),,Nova(T)

Back-up
UMP45/P90(CT),,P90(T)

Long-range
Sawed off(T)

Open Yard
MP9/MAG7(CT),,MAC10*(T)

The Benelli or call it Nova makes the best damage in close quarters whereas Scarred off makes a 128/96 damage in long range meaning unarmored/armored. MAG7 for CT only has the best accuracy and seconds the Scarred off with a 120/90 damage ratio buy it if you can. XM104 which i like the most personally has 80/64 damage in close quarters. PP Bizon is good at close range hit the head or abdomen and damage will soar at 108/61 ratio.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Close Quarters
M4A4(CT),,Galil AR*/AK47(T)

Long-range
AWP(CT),,AWP(T)

Open Yard
FAMAS(CT),,AK47(T) (must have)

17/30
SS08/M4A4 (CT),,AK47(T) (must have)

25/30
G3SG1/AWP(CT),,SCAR-20/AWP(T) (money wise)

AWP is the best of them all with a 460/448 damage on any assailant with higher firing rate and accuracy. AUG not menioned here is rather a less powerful rifle but with most accuracy ever use it while moving sideways, hoping etc. M4A-1S is a much accurate rifle with spare mag.. at 132/92 damage ratio you want to keep it all through the game. The AK47 is with no doubt a LOUD DEADLY beast with 30/90 mag it has best firing rate and damage to armor.

For those who love to spray enemies two calibre weapons are here:

NEVGEV - 140/105 damage at close quarters - 150/200 mag - No accuracy at all
FN minimi - 128/102 damage at close quarters - 100/200 mag - N0 accuracy at all

Special weaponry like MP5 comes with no recoil at all will an eco mag 30/120. I am now sure to say that you are ready for CS:GO.
