A good CS2 demo review begins with a question. Choose a missed trade, a late rotation or a site entry, then rewind before contact. The radar lets you follow both teams together, while a POV video gives a selected player's in-game perspective. Keep those views distinct when deciding what a player could know during the match.

Start with the viewer walkthrough if you are new to demo analysis. Use the FACEIT guide for account and source checks, or study a pro round on a map and role you play. Once the controls are familiar, the trade and utility guides provide repeatable questions you can apply to your own games. Save one observation to test, then return to a similar round after the next match.
