After 10 years abstinence, i had a hard time in CS2. So I mailed draus. He pointed all out that was relevant. I got clear things to work on and real focus. :D

How can I contact you?
If you have any questions, please contact me via Discord: draus.
When are you available?
My calendar is linked with Metafy's scheduling system. I advise to book any free date of your convenience or reach out via Discord or Metafy chat to set up a booking outside of my office hours, should there be no open time slot of your convenience. My personal schedule is flexible, therefore I am confident I will be able to accommodate you. Additionally, my office hours are on a rotating weekly cycle to offer a wide variety of booking options for international clients of all regions. My time zone is Europe, Berlin CET.
What is your timezone?
My timezone is Europe, Berlin CET.
In which languages do you coach?
I am able to coach in English and German.
Do you take on students outside of Europe?
Absolutely! I am able to take on English- and German-speaking students of any region.
How many sessions should I book?
Everyone learns at their own pace. Some just need a few pointers to unlock their potential, others need to lay the foundations for long term consistency first. I will provide you with the tools and understanding to help yourself advance faster. Test me out and see, if you like what I have to say!
Can I adjust the session length and content to my preferences?
Absolutely! If you order longer packages, we will talk about how we can efficiently group the topics of choice into session lengths that work for you.
Can I record our session?
Yes, feel free to do that. I also offer to record the session for you and upload it privately.
What is a "demo" or โdemo reviewโ?
In CS a demo refers to a file that allows to review a certain match from every player's point of view. Think interactive VOD of your past game. We use this to identify what is working great so far and what you can improve on.
Can I send in Dust 2 demos?
I do not play Dust2 personally and therefore I try to not coach it. If you are more or less a beginner, this will not be a problem. We can still look at your Dust2 demos. For more advanced students; please select one of the other 6 maps. Thank you!
What was your highest rank?
Global Elite and Faceit Level 10 in a short amount of time. And you can do it too!
