What percentage of shots do players take while they don't see an enemy among all ranks?

This week we decided to analyze future-pro players matches from GGPredict to find out what’s the percentage of shots taken when seeing an opponent.

According to our analysis, FACEIT players decide to take rifle shots more often when they don't see an enemy. Most of those shots are scans through the smokes and walls, and shots, that were taken while they are flashed.

What’s worth to mention, FACEIT players throw more flashes, which also blinds enemies for much longer than Steam players. We have shown this in this infographic.

About us: We created an algorithm that analyzes CS:GO demos in more than 250 metrics. GGPredict’s mission is to educate players and help them to improve those aspects of the game that are not visible at first glance.

The data source for this infographic is a slice of our database with 321 292 matches of the users registered on GGPredict. We analyze all the games and store the most metrics of any esports data tool. Our Data Science team used Python to count the percentages for each rank.
