Smol posted:I haven’t been following the CS scene lately. Is ESIC a big deal? I have never heard about them. The bans will be enforced specifically for the tournament organizers that are part of the ESIC. This means any of the banned coaches can't participate in ESL, Dreamhack, or Blast tournaments as an example. While they can't enforce the bans outside of their member orgs, it's being recommended that other orgs recognize the bans for the sake of competition integrity.

Jeza posted:Unless it's different now, you'd get free to open souvenir boxes for watching the Majors on Twitch (or elsewhere). It's different now that the game went free to play. Now you have to buy a viewer pass and complete challenges, which are a mix of in game activities and also playing the major pickems and getting your picks correctly. All of the really really old stuff has exploded in price just due to time and artificial scarcity so if you have skins and stickers from like 3 or 4 years ago it's likely worth much more than it was then.

So after years of just slumming it in casual and watching majors in GOTV I'm finally bothering to do my competitive placements despite owning the game since it came out. My main question is am I supposed to be seeing wild swings in who I get matched against? I usually do okay against silvers and the highest rank I've won against is GN2 but I will get pit against much higher ranks (DMG, LE etc the highest was 2 SMFC) and get demolished , is this a normal part of the placement process?

I managed to finish my placements at silver elite even though my aim and crosshair placement still needs a lot of work and I'm just not used to any map except dust 2 but I've played dust 2 on and off for like 20 years... I thought my matches would even out a little more but yesterday I got 3 in a row of a mix of Silver's and GNs and the GNs would destroy me but my team would somehow eke ahead. And then for whatever reasons the other team would end up quitting so we would win and I ranked up off of that.  The funniest one was on inferno where the other team had a GN4 and SEM who ended up tking their teammates enough to make them all leave. NA CS I guess.

I'm fairly convinced that even expert bots are dumbed down compared to Condition Zero's bots but either way they're still not going to move and shoot like real human opponents. I don't think you can play unranked if you can't queue for ranked yet, but unranked 5v5 is probably the closest to the 'real thing' in terms of learning purposes. Casual isn't good for actually learning the game since the player numbers and economy are way different.

Digital Jedi posted:-Gotta relearn how to nade throw cause I'm underthrowing everything compared to csgo CS2 lineups are pretty close to the old 128 tick lineups from CSGO so if you already knew those you're set for everything but Overpass and Inferno which changed geometry. If you only knew lineups for MM in CSGO then you just gotta aim a little higher in most cases.

Budzilla posted:Counter Strike 2: The 3 Rs. Russians, Rushing and Racism. Oh yeah definitely. I waited until final release to see how certain things changed or not before buying some stuff. It's only been a few days and the prices keep trending down, especially stuff that was being hoarded like fades and dopplers. It was inevitable when everybody's advice was "don't sell until CS2 releases."

Budzilla posted:People who hoarded skins before CS2's release now selling, some panic selling because CS2's release is a little underwhelming, colours of certain knives look kind of stuffed atm especially dopplers. I think the knives' colour look nicer in CS2. It is a temporary dip, if I was in the market to buy something expensive (I am not) I would buy it now or soon before Valve corrects things or the maket corrects itself. Honestly all the new dopplers look better except sapphires, which I'm convinced are just bugged. Look at a phase 3 (timestamp 3m20s) versus a sapphire (time stamp 3m50s) in this video and tell me that's not just the same texture on both. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKBew3VxE6Q The phase 3 in CSGO was a mix of green, blue and brown and you can still see it reflected in the CS2 version. Sapphires in CSGO were dark purple-ish blue but this is just the same green/blue/brown except it sells on 3rd party sites for as much as a car. Valve has made adjustments to skins with every patch this past week and I expect they aren't done. Also wrt prices, I would expect a further dip around the Steam winter sale and especially if they release a new operation. I'm surprised we didn't get one with the CS2 release.

Do you mean Inferno? Because from what I've seen, people have been nerding out about learning new Inferno. Like Valve literally made more changes to smokes to counter some of the nerd poo poo people were pulling off in the beta.

Just having at least one other person with you to go into the MM queue is great. There've been occasions when randoms tried to start poo poo in voice chat and the other person I was queued with helped shut that poo poo down. They also can't votekick you since they won't have enough votes with 3.

PirateBob posted:I'm not about to pay a single dollar for any skin. I just want to unlock whatever rewards I've earned. Without paying. All the skins that can be free drops are by design very plain, so if that's not an issue you can just rely solely on the weekly drops until you fill out your inventory. No cases can be unlocked without paying money in some fashion; you either buy the keys to unlock them or you pay extra upfront with souvenirs or the Anubis case. The thing about CS skins compared to other poo poo is there's always a way to get at least some, if not all, of your money back.

Pandaal posted:Certain cases eventually drop less frequently or stop dropping altogether. If there’s 10,000 cases on the market and no new ones on the way, that number is only ever going to go down. If the case has something desirable in it, the demand will stay the same while the supply only continues to drop. Prices stonk. The only cases that never drop any more are the cases from the most recent operations and the old esports cases, so Broken Fang, Shattered Web and Riptide along with the esports 2013/2014 cases. Everything else including the OG cases has a very small chance to drop.

The only time I've ever found the AWP annoying is in casual mode because people can spawn in with $10,000 and then CT side is just like 10 AWPs.
