No but I'd like to see that one if you've got a video.

This is my standard popflash out mid if you're going from xbox. Able to be done crouching as well. It's easy to duck if you're looking for it but it works the majority of the time and can get you out of DD easy.

when they changed it so you have 3 different ways to throw nades they kinda made it so you can pop flash anywhere, just from lobbing nades in the air. you can pop flash any corner solo now when previously you had to know set flashes or have someone throw them for you.
Sadly you're right, they should nerf right-click nades.

You probably know it already. Definitely counts as a sick pop flash though.

I used to try that every time but 75% of the time it was too low. It's really cool if you can do it reliably!

Is there ever a reason to use Dualies, ever, or is it 100% style points like the description suggests? If they were $400 I could see it, but at $500 why not buy a Tec9 or Five-Seven?

Well for one thing you get two guns which automatically makes it better than having one gun.

One guy? Two-shot headshot even with helmet, and a nice range for pistols.

More than one? That's okay. 30 bullet mag, rapid fire, and controllable recoil.

i agree. my eyes can't tell the difference between 60hz and 144hz either. i think it's because the eyes can only see 30fps
I'm pretty sure you're joking but if you have two monitors with different refresh rates (I have a 60 and a 144) flick your mouse back and forth as quickly as you can. You'll see twice as many pointers on the 144hz monitor because it's displaying it twice as quickly and your eyes will make it ghost. I wouldn't say I notice any large difference in CS:GO, though.

he was asking about the dualies over the tec9, not about the tec9 or pre-nerf cz (although I have no idea what state that gun is in right now)

Dualies are good pistol round, especially CT-side where you can get dualies and a frag and spray down a rush. Outside of pistol rounds I've yet to see any niche not better filled by other guns.

I mean, okay, if you prefer the Tec-9, that's fine, but I seem to kill more and kill faster with Berettas. Maybe it's just how I play. Dunno.

This is wild. I've actually been inspired since your last trade-up story, and I've been trying to trade my flip doppler up to something nicer, and likely less volatile price wise. Looking for a M9 Bayo CH, hopefully with ST.

Careful. All CH knives are a hundred times more volatile than anything else. But if that's your endgame, go for it. I think your Doppler is phase 1, and they're kinda dropping, like most of the new knives except for the higher demands ones. But a lot of CH owners are trying to get rid of theirs cause quite frankly they're hard to sell.
