When you're becoming a CS:GO advanced player, you'll soon find that your options menu is a bit limited. That's when you should create your very own config file. The one below is mine and edited to fit my needs, so feel free (or forced :) to edit it. I'm playing on a 144Hz monitor with all graphics settings maxed out, so you may need to edit the -freq launch option to fit your needs (if you don't know, use 60). The default key configs are also a little mixed up, see below.
The template for my autoexec was Budi's autoexec.
-novid -noborder -high -threads 4 -freq 144 -refresh 144 -tickrate 128 -nojoy -nod3d9ex -noaafonts +exec autoexec.cfg +mat_vignette_enable 0 -processheap
To set them right click on CS:GO in your Steam Library > Properties > set launch options.
I had to change several default key binds due to the nade binds and personal preference. The ones that aren't listed are default.
- ctrl use voicechat
- alt duck (or crouch, whatever you prefer)
- space will now switch to your knife when pushed down and back to your previous weapon when released (see remarks for explaination). If you press e or 3 while holding down space you will not switch back when releasing space. If you hold mouse4 you can jump with space again.
- q is now a secondary jump key.
- mouse4 will allow you to jump with space again while pressed.
- z drop weapon/use event weapon
- y
is now unboundnow drops the C4. Killed me several times to type "waaadd" in chat. Dropping the bomb usually happens less in firefights. - v look at your weapon
- enter chat (y is still working)
- n jumpthrow (take a nade, then keep attack pressed and press n)
- c toggle noclip (also buys a decoy)
- F1/F2/F3 is now used for voice commands since both z and c are used now
- F8 toggle voice chat
- F9 training setup
- F10 spawn bot
- F11 sends "gl hf gc" into the all chat
- F12 is now bound to autobuy/use random weapons (in dm). This was previously on F3. May change due to it being the screenshot key.
To use or buy nades (both workes with the same key):
- t smoke grenade
- f/mouse5 flashbang
- c decoy (also toggles noclip)
- g he grenade
- x molotov or incendiary

This cfg rebinds tab so it will also show some stats about your connection when you open your scoreboard.
The rather strange q bind does actually help a lot: You can quickswitch with only one keypress and you're faster back to your gun if you encounter an enemy while running (and got q held down for this).
If you're using the us keyboard layout (here: y and z switched) you need to adjust the binds in this file. I'm using the german layout due to me actually being - you guessed it - german.
Some tips (for not-noobs)
- Use the lowest mouse sensivity you can (when someone's behind you, you're dead anyway).
- Try to avoid crouching, unless your enemies are pros it will get you killed faster. At least below master guardian ranks.
- Read this cfg carefully and make your own edits - mine isn't perfect, at least not for you.
There's no bind for the molotov since you need to use it very well and in a team for it to be effective. If you're not playing in an advanced team, don't waste your money.It now has a bind since I was upranked several times. The molotov is a good buy since it's only 100$ above a nade. An incendiary does however less damage to armored oponents and costs a lot more, so chose wisely.
The config is well commented (mostly) and it should be easy to make it fit your needs. If you have any questions, feel free to comment or pm me :)
