The latest blog update from the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive team takes a look at how accurate players of varying abilities can truly be. Through the magic of the game's online matchmaking system, they are able to see how skill plays a role in whether or not they score a hit or a headshot at further distances.
They also promise that some major updates are in the works. Based on feedback, they are doing a total rewrite of sv_pure, a new system for adjusting audio spatialization, and additional character voice work.

Previously we looked at pro tournaments for examples of skilled play. Now, as we continue to test our online matchmaking system, we can look at the rest of the beta population. How do low, medium, and highly ranked players compare to each other? As you’d expect, the higher a player’s ranking is, the more they start to look like a pro.
Some of the most obvious examples of skill show up when we look at weapons.
For example, when using the AK47 and the M4A4, we see that highly ranked players are able to maintain their accuracy from much further away.

For pistols like the Desert Eagle, those players manage to get headshots far more often.
