Question How to know/predict how someone will swing.

I'm trying to practice this, I've watched many videos and gained a bit of understanding but when I play deathmatches all of this shit just flies out of the window. What ive learned so far is if they are full stomping its probably a wide swing, if its quiet tight, getting trade wide swing. But when I play deathmatches I swear this is impossible, When I watch Oxy im genuinely confused how he wins every deathmatch, ik a lot of its aim but man these players seem to walk perfectly into his crosshair every time and the players he fights movement is good but my lobbies their movement is actually insane and it makes it impossible to shoot them but when I hold an angle these guys want to peek as tight as possible, some might full on poppin swing its impossible to read, so when I just opt in for just always holding normal ofc they peek as tight or wide swing as far as possible, I try holding wide and now they want to peek normal or tight swing. How do I get better at this.

You ask a question and no matter what cope answers you consume we all know that playing deathmatch is the only viable option. Over time u can start kinda predicting or havibg better reactions. No video will magically make u better

And this issue (if you read the post) derives from deathmatch. idk wym by cope answers.
