Alright cs thread I got one for you: say you could remove one weapon from the game. Which one would you pick?
I'd go with the cz75 so I can get more dual Beretta fights.

Don't sell poo poo on the Steam market right before/during the big sales, everything drops in price because a million other fuckers are doing the same thing

DO buy items though, if there's ever a time to "invest" (lmao) in your Steam inventory, it's now.

Here's a better idea. Cash it out for real money which you can use on real items IRL and not just dumb video game things.

The cries of the dead are terrible indeed; you should try not to hear them.
I'd remove the A1-S or Tek-9. Although you could probably balance the Tek, so I'd remove A1-S outright. Put optional silencer on M4A4 and have that make it marginally worse.

I only really use the A1 because of the silencer, so that needs to stay in the game as an option.

If it helps you then go for it, HE nades are useful but I would argue they're the least useful of the 5. I think the SG's value over the AK is super situational for most people, though, and that nades are almost always going to give you more map control and ability to push than the SG will over the AK. I would say, even in your circumstance, prioritize something like this: Armor (without helmet) > AK > Smoke > Armor (with helmet) > Flash > SG replaces AK > Second flash > Firebomb or HE depending on remaining funds > Pistol

e: In other words, if you can't afford head armor, smoke, flash AND SG, then get an AK but otherwise go for it if it helps.

The SG recently has been kind of a confidence thing for me and I'm not sure why. I've been unable to reliably tap with the AK but I can dink motherfuckers left and right with this thing

I agree with you in general though I just need to get my mojo back

The extra 300 for the SG is the least of its problems in comparison to the AK considering how relatively cheap getting a full buy as a terrorist is unless you can never get the bomb down.

I never really considered the drawbacks until I started meeting the worst aimlords at global or especially places like ESEA, but the 100 milliseconds you spend bringing up the scope is the 100 ms they use to lock onto your head and will cause you to lose a lot of duels you otherwise wouldn't, and even if you're not scoping and you miss the initial headshot and it turns into a spray battle, any other main rifle will have an advantage over you in terms of recoil control. It also seems pretty insignificant on its face, but the reduced movement speed of the SG (especially scoped in) compared to the AK makes it noticably worse at entry fragging since the AK allows you to fly into sites and stutterstep to shoot at your leisure while you're comparatively speaking stuck in molasses with the SG.

The only reason I can use the SG effectively at higher levels is that I'm comfortable (scoped) spraying it at longer ranges than any other weapon in the game, if I had to rely on the single tap accuracy most people talk about when they say they use the SG, I'd much rather have the AK and it's mobility nine times out of ten.

I love the SG and it's my favorite weapon in the game, but as is often repeated here, there's a reason why the pros aren't using it over the AK and it's not that they somehow haven't discovered how good the gun is.

I use the SG unscoped when I do use it for the extra pen (good example is coming out of A ramp on mirage) and once in a great while to counter the awp at long A but would agree that it is generally worse

So gonna preface this by saying if you are a dick, or grossed about by birth defects don't click the link. I don't give a poo poo what you think.


I'm looking to upgrade my keyboard to mechanical, but based on my current WASD method I don't know if it will be too good of an idea.

To play I essentially do (it's a picture of a stump, full warning if you are squeamish) this with my left stump. I can move forwards, backwards, side to side by basically rocking back and forth, I don't put a huge amount of pressure on it. Would a mechanical keyboard be too "clicky" for me?

I was also considering a keypad, but the elevation I see probably wouldn't work.
