might be a dumb queastion but, is it better to have a higher DPI on my mouse and lower ingame sensitivity, or a higher in-game sensitivity and lower dpi

Technically high DPI but the difference is so small that you won't notice

My aim improved when I went to 1.5/800 and it got even better when I dropped my resolution from 1680x1050 to 1280x800. So Low/low/low imo

I'm still bad but now I'm less bad

It has a less restrictive answer than people say but for non special snowflakes 400 dpi/ less than 2ish in game works because you in general have your crosshair in the general area you expect someone to be and you usually aren't aggressively wrong about that. So you move your wrist a little bit to fine tune your crosshair placement when your enemy appears. If you whip your arm around a bunch you are already hosed. If you value higher dpi more you might be a very flick between targets player or more likely just be reading the game very poorly. Its not necessarily true, you might be flicking well between targets but if you aren't lower is better because your thinking might be better than your reaction speed.

I wonder what the majors would look like with the normal map veto system. For example, there's no way in hell Navi would be playing C9 on train in a regular bo1 map veto scenario.

c9 could have def won overpass, sucks that rng is such a big factor at majors for no good reason

I didn't see the game but why the gently caress did G2 let VP play on Train?

As far as I can see of VP's last 10 matches on Train, 4 of them were against G2 and they won all of them - the time before this being 16-2.

The better team (the legend in this case) got to decide whether they want 3 bans or 2 bans and pick which side to start on. The opposing team got the other option.

Not that it matters, you don't go 1-14 on CT Train if you have any chance against the opposing team. This would have been a slaughter on loving Dust

What does that change? Is there a reason it shouldn't be 2 bans each or even 3 bans each, and just flipping a coin on which side to start? For some reason there is RNG in the most important part of the matchup, but none in the least important.

again this is only for the group stage format, there should at least be SOME slight advantage for a higher seeded team.

Apparently nv is a bad team. Had half my team suck balls. Got 102 points which nets me in the top %91. Goodbye golden wet floor sign. At least I have my Doritos from last year

I unironically love these puff pieces on pro CS players. It's pretty fun for a newb like me who doesn't know most of these teams from a hole in the ground. That little vignette before the VP match made me root for VP and I was happy to see them killdozer.

Markeloff is kind of adorable
