Captain Invictus posted:Hopefully someone can help me out here. I recently purchased a Karambit | Fade knife alongside a bunch of other stuff, and every prospective buyer asks me the "ratio". I did a bit of googling but didn't find a really great guide, a fellow linked me to http://metjm.net/csgo/ to take a screenshot of it without having to install the game(I don't play csgo), and based on the screenshot it took it seems to be a "40/60" Karambit Fade. I believe it's worth about ~200-230 csgo keys, is that correct? According to a few year old reddit posts the price seems about right (215 keys), but then again that was also a year ago. Maybe check youtube videos to compare your screenshot with along with whatever information you can squeeze out of reddit, though I'm rather sure it's quite likely you've checked as much as you can from them by now.

i guess you could always ask the globaloffensivetrade subreddit iirc ratio refers to the amount of color (a karambit fade with 60% pink and 40% purple has a 60/40 ratio) and float is the value of weapon finish wear so you naturally want lower floats, and can usually convince to sell for higher with lower floats other skins have different particularities, such as the crimson web knives being worth more if they have more web starting points, and dopplers can have different colors with some worth more its a crazy and honestly pretty loving gay world out there, in the csgo skin trade

Solo queuing is rough. Honestly the thing that has surprised me the most is just how big the gap is between ranks. I'm admittedly poo poo at GN1, but I absolutelty dominated at Silver 4 to SEM and now get a good mix of making GBS threads on and getting poo poo on when I solo que. Though the amount of people who are complete asshats does seem to be going down, though that could just be random luck as well.

I understand the "accept the game for what it is" arguments to a point but come on not everything is "crying" That was my point though. So you move the decimal point, weapons get more innacurate while jumping, people still jump and shoot wildly because you can get lucky, so these lucky shots still happen. All that changes is how far away the crosshair was from the target when they got lucky. You can either have it luck based (what we have now) to a greater or lesser extent or entirely skill based (no variance). People will complain about both.

They can work due to the random factor yes, but they should win a fight with a standing opponent 1 out of say 100000 instead of 1 out of 100. You can get lucky standing completely still due to the enemy's innaccuracy, you can get lucky spraying, noscoping, jumping, etc, and everyone accepts that, but what should be changed is how viable they are as options, which is in valve's control, and which is i believe at the core of the game: choosing the most viable, rock solid and likely to succeed strategy. Play with the mechanics that are sure to increment your odds, even if the enemy has a one in a million chance to own you.

Hide around corners and throw it at your enemy's feet when they come around it. You're guaranteed to get 10+ damage each time if you're accurate. Also tell the other team you need fire damage, you might come across a friendly person who is willing to stand in your molotov for a few seconds.

Well I do, it's the crying of someone trying to blame 1 double kill on choking away 19 other perfectly good chances to win a major, but what are Valve supposed to do about it?

A dude who made a video about how it's stupid and should be taken out of the game a year earlier gets to complain when it shafts him. Imo.

OK so I can understand people not wanting this particular mechanic in the game because it "feels" unfair/too lucky. I really don't think they got "shafted" by it though. If he'd made a "how to not go on tilt for 50+ rounds because of a 1% chance shot on 1 map of the tournament" he'd be 50K or so richer right now...

Why you should never open cases. Even if you discount the price of the cases themselves he spent at least 2,500 USD to get a Bayonet Doppler.

I might be remembering incorrectly, but why did Valve change it from 1.6 when if you jumped and fired with an awp you were as likely to hit someone in another server as you were the person you were aiming at?

Jumping accuracy is fully loving stupid in CS:GO and basically has been since day one. A jumping AWP shot should be a loving Christmas miracle, even when they are close range. Try pulling that in 1.6 and Source and you just died for nothing. Your point about if it is more inaccurate, people will still do it anyway is just complete nonsense. If it almost never works compared to works pretty often, then people won't attempt it nearly as much (like in 1.6/Source when people rarely tried jump frags). Like, jumping for information beside A site on D2 is now the absolute norm, previously it rarely happened. I probably die to some bullshit jump kill at least once a game. The only reason people should be jumping around corners is to not die to an AWP.

As much as I like the scout, jump scouting shouldn't be in the game. But yeah pretty unimportant in the grand scheme of things, I just think he's entitled to be a bit salty cause he's been vocal about jump accuracy being nerfed and it's undeniable his team got screwed out of a really promising round at an important point in the game. It's not the only or even main thing that led to them choking but it played a part

Crits in TF2 serve a purpose to lessen the skill gap between new and more experienced players and have a function in casual play. Jumping awp shots are dumb and should be toned down considerably.

I watch it every now and then, it's pretty entertaining. His main thing seems to be YT videos though, most of which highlight some aspect of the game mechanics. The betting/case opening is just something he does on the side, it's not one of those 24/7 case opening/give away streams.
