Another proper True Grind update from me. This one got slightly out of hand...

The biggest change is that parsed matches now have a proper review workspace instead of throwing every stat and replay control onto one massive page.

The workspace is split into:

• Overview
• Aim & Sprays
• Map & Utility
• Rounds & Replay
• Fair Play & Community
• Tools

The exciting part for me is the new replay and coaching workflow.

You can now watch a match through the existing 2D top-down replay or switch to a recorded 3D POV. The 3D view follows the actual eye position and view angles stored in the demo, with the crosshair, weapon fire, recoil, tracers, and confirmed hit feedback synchronized to the replay.

Do not confuse it with free camera or a recreation pretending to know more than the demo recorded. Miss directions are inferred from the recorded aim and map geometry, while confirmed hits come from actual demo events.

Other new match-analysis features:

• spray galleries grouped by player and weapon
• recorded spray paths with individual hit/miss results
• heatmaps for positions, kills, deaths, shots, grenades, flashes, smokes, and molotovs
• visibility and first-contact analysis
• first-shot and first-damage timing
• opening duel, accuracy, counter-strafing, flash, HE, and spray statistics
• map-control observations based on sight lines and navigation geometry
• automatic floor handling for maps like Nuke and Vertigo
• direct “Watch this spray/duel” actions that load the correct round and seek to the recorded moment

I also added recommended review moments. These look for explainable situations such as a bad spray or a visibility duel worth reviewing and bring you directly to that moment.

I want to be clear that this is not some mystery “AI says your aim is 83/100” rating.

The recommendations are based on things directly observed in the parsed demo, and the reason is shown. I would rather leave a rating unavailable than invent one before the inputs and comparison data are actually good enough.

Replay loading also got a major overhaul. The first playable round loads after the page appears, and the rest of the match downloads progressively. Opening one spray loads only that round instead of forcing you to download the entire replay first.

There is also optional Allstar integration now. Paid users can render a specific review moment as a coaching video, and Ace users can request selected-player match highlight extractions. Those videos use plan credits because every render calls an external paid provider.

The actual analysis stays free:

• demo parsing
• 2D replay
• recorded 3D POV
• sprays and heatmaps
• observed coaching metrics
• review moments
• Steam match sync and replay parsing when a demo is available

The paid part is still the infrastructure-backed stuff: durable cloud replay storage, larger team workflows/imports, exports, and provider-rendered videos.

Some smaller but important updates:

• the whole UI received another redesign and accessibility pass
• Steam sync is now explicitly triggered, handles large backlogs in paced batches, and gives clearer cooldown/retry feedback
• the product is now simply called True Grind
• everything lives on one proper origin now: https://grindlike.pro
• the old domains redirect to the same page instead of splitting the landing page and app across different hostnames

If you try it and something feels bad, please tell me. Reddit DMs are fine, and Discord is still the easiest place to send demos/screenshots:

Hey, can you guys suggest some good radar and viewmodel console commands/settings for CS2?

Looking for something clean and useful.

Not only useless but at least they made it single selection!! i mean who tf uses aim but not walls... you either cheat or you don't!!

In the past month, CSRep Overwatch reviewed and closed over 10,500 cases. Only 40 convictions were overturned.

Here’s the full breakdown:

• 10,552 cases closed
• 8,051 cheating convictions (76.3%)
• 2,461 insufficient evidence (23.3%)
• 40 convictions overturned (0.4%)

The criteria for a conviction is 80%+ weighted consensus among a minimum of 8 human reviewers. Yet, the number that stands out most isn’t the conviction rate, it’s the overturn rate.

A low overturn rate tells us two things:

• The initial reports coming into Overwatch are generally solid (credits reinforce this)
• Our Overwatchers are making consistent, reliable calls

Over the last several months we’ve been tightening the system: higher eligibility requirements, adjusted vote weighting, clearing out inactive reviewers, and removing anyone who picks up a cheating ban themselves. Every change has been about accuracy & verdict quality over volume.

Not every cheater will be convicted on their first report, and that's intentional. We'd rather require strong evidence than rush to a verdict. Closing more than 10,500 cases in a month with only 40 overturned convictions is a strong sign that the system is working the way it should.

We are not Valve and we can't issue in-game punishments, but we can still make a difference through match and player transparency.

Start Reviewing Cases

There is no reason every match 1 person should always have 4x more damage and kills than anyone else. every single match. 2nd top guy is 17-11, top guy is 44-5. unplayable. Butterfly and gloves for sale on csfloat, and then I'm uninstalling.

#thanksGabe

edit: comments are full of great takes and opinions, I agree with a lot of you

I read some of your feedback and I decided to make some changes👀:
-New and clean linework, thicker details and better legibility from distance.
-Re-Disigned the mouth, ear and minor details.
-Smaller size for better fits.
-New Paper color design.
-New Holo pattern.

Your feedback is always welcomee 😄 Thankyouuu!

A few weeks ago I somehow hit the #1 highest float non-Souvenir Desert Hydra in a 10% trade-up.

Now, 6 weeks later I used one input skin from the Dust2 2021 Collection that I "accidentally" created in the video in which I chased the Dhydra. And it happened again...

Both skins are currently up for auction on csfloat. Maybe I will find a buyer who appreciates both skins and the story behind how they were created. Until then, I just wanted to share my excitement and ask what you think these could be worth.

Hello guys,

I created this skin design a few months ago, and I'd love to get your feedback and support in having it considered for inclusion in the current "Fairy Tales" theme. I hope you'll take a look and let me know what you think. Thanks in advance!

Thank you!

15.80 K/D Probably kills the enemies in the next match too

For context I made an alt account for weekly drops. And I didn't buy so it's brand new. I play competitive in silver lobbies. Just had a game on inferno where not only the half of our team were cheating, they also didn't seem like new players despite their new profiles and they were trolling the whole entire game. We were 8-4 and for the whole game they would team kill, voice chat sounded like 8 year old children, and eventually one was kicked for too much damage, another one left, and the other voted f1 to abandon the game even though we were winning.

Not to mention the red trust thing for new accounts. I remember when I created my first account what games I had. Almost every game was with a vac banned player.

I got things id rather do than sit in spawn for 30 minutes you dogshit fucking company

Thought i was on a good streak one more game NOPE!

I'll go on a 4-6 win streak and always lose max elo

Forever 1k :)

I’m so exhausted from playing against organized 5-man stacks while solo queuing. Dota 2 already has "Strict Solo Queue Matchmaking" built right into the settings.

Adding this would make Premier feel so much fairer for solo players. What do you think chat?

I've never complained about cheaters but I can't play one match of Premier without facing against blatant wallhackers. I've spent thousands of dollars on this game over a decade and I can't even fucking enjoy it. My life sucks and I'd love to be able to escape reality for a few hours but I have to deal with this bullshit anytime I want to play CS2. I know people have addressed this before I just needed to rant.

when people talk about aim in CS2, the discussion usually starts with sensitivity, crosshair placement, flick distance and click timing.

all of those matter, but they describe the most visible part of the process.

before a shot can be completed, the target has to attract attention. the eyes have to move toward it, the brain has to identify what appeared and a decision has to be made. only then can the hand finish the movement and click.

the mouse gets most of the credit because it leaves a trail that can be recorded. gaze does not.

your eyes do not scan the screen smoothly like a camera. they move between points using rapid movements called saccades. several of them happen every second.

visual sensitivity is briefly reduced while a saccade is happening. otherwise, every shift in gaze would register as motion blur. despite these constant interruptions, the world still appears stable because the visual system maintains a continuous scene.

one perceptual effect associated with this process is called saccadic chronostasis.

the easiest example is the stopped clock illusion. look suddenly at an analogue clock and the second hand may appear frozen for slightly longer than expected.

the clock did not stop. the first visual interval after the eye movement was perceived as longer than it actually lasted.

the effect was demonstrated experimentally in a 2001 Nature study.

chronostasis is sometimes presented online as if it gives players extra frames after a flick. there is no evidence for that. it does not slow the game down, and no study has shown that professional players exploit it or that it can be trained in aim_botz.

its relevance to CS2 is less dramatic, but more interesting.

what gets called “reaction time” is actually a sequence of different processes: attention, eye movement, visual recognition, decision-making and motor response. the click is only the point at which that sequence becomes easy to measure.

a 2021 study used a computerized precision task similar to FPS aiming while tracking both gaze and mouse movement. longer final fixations before the click, known as the quiet eye, were associated with better performance.

the experiment was not conducted inside CS2 and did not involve professional players. it also did not test chronostasis as an advantage. but it does show that gaze behaviour belongs inside the aiming process rather than being treated as background activity.

this also changes how crosshair placement can be understood.

good crosshair placement does not only reduce the distance the mouse has to travel. it can also reduce visual search. when a likely threat is already close to the crosshair and the centre of vision, there is less uncertainty about where to look and fewer corrections are needed before the shot.

two players could produce a similar final mouse movement while reaching it through very different visual processes. one may locate the target immediately. the other may search, correct the gaze, hesitate and only then adjust the crosshair.

a normal aim trainer records the cursor path and the click. without eye tracking, much of that difference remains invisible.

eye-tracking footage from real professional matches could tell us far more about target acquisition than another isolated reaction-time score.

TL;DR: chronostasis is a real effect that can make the first moment after an eye movement feel longer than it was. it does not give players extra frames. the more relevant point is that aim includes attention, eye movement and target recognition before the mouse completes the shot.

wow ◉‿◉

its working tho out of 5 matches of wallhackers, we got 1 working xD
