• Use a smoke grenade on where they are rushing from to stop the rush. This is amazingly effective in CSGO, because you can see the enemy first before they can see you when they come out of the smoke, so you can just mow them down.
  
  
• Use a flashbang grenade to blind them all for a few seconds. To use flashes ridiculously effectively (and I mean it), learn how to “Pop Flash” – this just prevents your enemies from turning around from the flash, by giving them as little reaction time as possible to see it coming.
  
  
• Use a HE grenade to do a ton of damage. Double-nading with a teammate effectively may even kill multiple people.
  
  
• Instead of a smoke grenade, use a molotov/incendiary grenade, which is very effective in terms of damage and stopping a rush. These grenades still seem rather new to me, as they are not used in the previous Counter-Strike games.
  

• Rush as a team and don’t stop, unless there are smokes or molotovs/incendiary grenades thrown. Only really do this when you are eco-ing to save money for the next round. When you get towards higher ranks, this would not really be recommended.
  
  
• A/B split: divide yourselves into a 3 (will contain the bomb) and a 2, and go towards a bombsite separately, but meet at the same point. This is very hard for the CTs to defend, unless you are slow and obvious enough that their back-up arrives.
  
  
• Divide your team across the map (to prevent CTs from pushing) and wait for the first pick and move in to that place as a team. Grenades are very effective here.
  
  
• Fakes: make a lot of noise in one place (i.e. throw a lot of grenades, make gunfire, and look aggressive), but really your team are going to the opposite bombsite. This will make the CTs rotate and will clear up your route.
  

• Peaking: if you are scared there is an enemy with an AWP or just someone looking in your direction in general, you can do a quick peak by tapping the keys ‘a’ and ‘d’ around a corner. Your opponent may not usually have the time to react, and you will get Intel on where the enemies are. Be careful though.
  
  
• Run with a knife: if you are really new to the game, please; run with a knife at the beginning of the round. Your movement speed is much faster.
  
  
• I like to call this one “Diglett-ing” (yes, the name of a Pokemon): if you are behind cover, and when standing up the enemies can see your head, but when crouched you are fully behind cover; you can do quick pop-ups and bursts at the enemies and back down into cover. This makes it very hard for them to kill you if you are quick and accurate.
  
  
• The unexpected push as a CT: let’s say there is an area smoked off, the Terrorists will not expect a CT to push through it. Though, if done effectively, and you peak at the right area of the smoke (generally around the sides of one), you can unexpectedly kill anyone there. This may not be very successful towards higher skilled enemies however.
  
  
• Pre-fire: if there is an enemy coming or just camping in a very generic spot, shoot quickly before you go around the corner and continue to. This gives you a head-start on shooting the enemy down.
  
  
• Walk (slowly): many new players do not do this enough, and gives the enemy’s an immediate idea of your position(s).
  
  
• Swap to your pistol if you need to reload your primary weapon mid-gunfight, and you think you do not have enough time to reload
