Are CS2 Players getting too good?

[@minhvu8057]

The quality of this vid is really excellent

[@Tommo_]

Super cool vid! Not many KZbinrs can provide as high a level insight as you with this level of polish!

[@STYKO]

Wow, thanks! 🫶🏽

[@CS2Tactics]

Fantastic video! Always interesting hearing your thoughts on these topics. :)

It's cool to see what e-sport can be when we treat it as a profession. Which it should be. Soccer players 50 years ago smoked in the half-time. Some of them probably drank beer to. I know that there is at least one german soccer player that smoked so much, he had a pack of cigarettes in his "socks" even while playing. Different times. Great to see that people value their health more.

I would mark out one more thing that was introduced in 2020 in Team Spirit, although it was their Dota 2 roster. The heavily invested into headhunting young talents, started recruting players with not the highest skill, but those who work together the best. Also running probably the most succesful newbies rosters. P.S. Some might say that others were doing it, but im talking about building "backend" just like the main roster. So managers, coaches, psychologists etc....

[@iamsadlmao]

Glad someone is finally talking about peripherals in the before & now debate.

[@rainbowappleslice]

it's just like anything that goes on for so long. a player or team comes along and is amazing because they redefine how the game is played. Everyone slowly learns the same, new prodigies learn that as a baseline and improve upon it. Rinse and repeat. it's like speedrunning but much slower

[@olafsonsfw9524]

well not me :D I'm getting older and more grey but still in love with CS. keep up the amazing content Styko

[@bileyiwnl]

Incredibly well and thoroughly made video, it's a pleasure watching you man.

[@ev0lution1]

Nice video as always

[@Ayur_Baturov]

Damn bro, didn’t expect subtitles, thx

[@STYKO]

we are testing [RU] subtitles. If you like it and it’s understandable enough, we will roll it to all of my videos in the future 😊 Any feedback on them is appreciated!

[@losingindividuality]

​@STYKO as an russian speaker - the ru subtitles are good

Another great insight !

Really good vid Keep it up

[@unknownentity8256]

aimbotz and spraymaster definitely was in the workshop since early 2015 Also there were some additional aim prac maps which I don't remember even back in the early days of CSGO. I remember vividly warming up often in this map that had different levels for distance, then u could put how many targets pop up in a wide wall in random locations, you could also turn on that they would move as well horizontally or randomly horizontally and diagonally, also could change how fast the targets popped, and how long they stayed. I loved as a kid back then zooted out my mind on redbulls 0.2 sec pop up interval + 0.2 timer 1 taps 100 targets, took on average 20-30 sec and about 5-10 sets and I was warmed up for game.

[@Fatkidlovecake]

1 thing that popped to mind seeing your thumbnail was 13 vs 16 round difference. Hs percentage are up now with less rounds. So is k/d

[@niebieskibezimienny5031]

7:05 7:21 7:24 what are those maps?

[@akira09u8]

Pretty awesome we're getting this quality of content from actual pros :D

[@hanneshaanpaa8446]

I think that other reason why pro players are not going for flicks is that click timing is just inconsistent on subtick and I would assume that quick mouse movement that requires precise timing suffers more from it than track and click. Could be wrong though.

[@stefanmollema1254]

where did you get the artworks on the back wall with the different locations of cs? Really clean

[@STYKO]

you can find them at the wheezyt.gg website or get in touch with @Wheezy__T on X 😊

[@oliverluo8202]

what map is that at 7:24?

[@Kieran6spdm]

Please don’t forget that the heads of player models and hitboxes grew by 30 percent from csgo to cs2, that’s a lot

[@Stfugb2s]

Bro. I swear to god they were talking about this with basketball like 15 years ago.

[@cicolas_nage]

i was thinking about this lately and wanted to ask an expert's perspective. roughly what do you think is the lowest premiere rank/faceit level today that could compete with the top level of players from the early years of CSGO? i think even 15-20k premiere players these days would be able to keep up with the pros of old if they were transported back in time

[@danjacksonguitar3701]

No rank matters too many cheaters everywhere

[@Fernando123247]

4:05 what's the name of the map? it looks so nice and helpful

[@squallp]

Could you explain what is "system" in CS

[@STYKO]

It is the “playstyle” of the team. How are they utilizing players, are they aggressive and always trying to make a play, or are they more passive, playing in the setups? How much they lean into teamplay or on the contrary - how much they rely on their star players to be the difference makers.

[@mr.inconsistent1631]

unpopular opinion: I think we should raise the minimum age of esports participants to at least 18 years old. People don't seems to realize, is that players like donk and monesy are the exeption. They stand beside a mountain of failed esports careers. These kids start way too young, start skipping school and get exploited by the big orgs for their talents and passion either "making" them the next big star or burning them out in the process.

[@paacefc7854]

Bro what😂

[@paacefc7854]

With that Logic just Ban gaming For everyone over 18 year Olds can get obsessed with gaming too and not going to Work or something Ur Logic makes no sense

[@x-ulus3924]

I completely agree 👍 donk looked burned out after winning shanghai major. He is just a kid, but had to survive so much pressure

[@luck3rok]

I don't understand something about your "unpopular opinion": you talking about "raising minimum age of esports participants", but how this will help with not skipping school? They will continue doing it, even if the minimum age will be 18 (btw, Donk and Monesy - good pupils, who didn't skip their classes). And organisations continue exploiting too. Nothing will change with this raising, except little bit later start of pro player career, imo. If we talking about pro career (not only cyber, any pro), intelligent people understand, that their chances to be best of the best not really big and consider another possibilities of their future.

[@Максим-ы4й6ф]

Agree, following your logic I would also ban women, just to protect them from disappointment

[@pori9192]

Styko its not the same game. Chill out.

[@LETSTRYTWO]

This game is noob friendly so obviously you can make better stats than in cs:go lol :D.

[@Edward-oj1gk]

is this even a question? are we going backwards? lmfao

[@STYKO]

figure of speech…

[@Edward-oj1gk]

@@STYKO you mean a rhetorical question

[@iuliani1663]

no, the game is mostly RNG and the skill gap is way too low, as Valve made this gambling casino as noob friendly as possible; even someone with 5h ingame for the first time can get lucky and hs others while running forward only; this is the game you all shill for.

[@oiBashyy]

definitely an emotional comment from you here, its not fully luck, everything is about consistency, you cannot play in a high rank of cs while trying to running headshot, if people only shoot while running, they will die majority of the time, just because you have died to it doesnt mean it happens often, cs is definitely not mostly RNG and real skill and good decision making will always give you the win over somebody going for gimmicky kills, you cant claim its luck just because someone is better than you.

[@iuliani1663]

@@oiBashyy I'm almost 3k elo on faceit and 25k rating on premier (in a place full of cheaters), played CSGO at a high level and 1.6 at a professional level; you're just a chatgpt user concocting replies on youtube.

[@AhrenAKADan]

@@oiBashyy also that 5hr player with a lucky running headshot is going to end the half at like 2-12 even against silvers lol i play on an inhouse server where most players are between faceit 5 and 8, and some used to do CAL back in 1.6, but having a consistent 10 come in, or from their connections someone who used to play tier C/B, is an absolute gamechanger. the skill ceiling on this game is so incredibly high.

[@jugi1231]

In your silver games people press w and shoot, we know it.

[@Chillypuwn]

The game became worse from CS:GO to CS2. Moving and shooting is a joke now a days and peekers advantage is STILL a fucking joke.
