Checks out with everything I've seen excepting the fact that more than 3 globals from before that I'm buds with are now LEM so that % might be off a bit.

The percentage is of post-patch distribution, not pre. We don't know how many are in each of the new skill groups so over half of ex-globals could be in that sliver

Lol to anyone who's pistol round buy strat isn't "full save so you can buy ump + armor next round cause your gonna loose pistols regardless of what you do, shithead".

Seriously. Stop buying poo poo on pistol rounds, thinking it will give you that extra 0.1% change of winning. Just full save, buy second round on your loss, and win second round. No other team is going to buy up against an armoured team when they win pistols.

This strat works 100% of the time. Ask anyone who has MMed with me and seen me wreck everyone second round cause I BOUGHT.

On one of my alts I hadn't played since they came up with that rank 3 thing and i recently grinded it out and placed nova 3

I'm Nova 3. Today I decided to consciously stop, pause a little, and carefully put my green dot crosshair on the dudes heads before clicking my mouse. No matter what the situation is, no matter what weapon I'm using, when I see a guy, I lift my hands off the keyboard, aim, and click.

Result: Had my greatest match of all time looking cool as gently caress one tapping everyone left and right. Ranked up to Nova 4 too. Even when I gently caress up a flashbang or something nobody said poo poo because they thought I was a drunk smurf or something.

Say I felt like playing roulette or flip a coin with my skins, which of the million CSGO gambling sites works well and is actually not a scam? I'm not talking big ticket items here, I just feel like playing for some <1 key skins every now and then.

If anyone has been having trouble doing legit trades I've actually traded up twice just by playing on surf servers with a trading tag in my name, surprisingly it's been really effective.

I know NV haven't been playing their best but this seems like Dig getting good more than anything. They were middling before but they're bringing great games to everyone this year.
