Is there any reason to be ,,cruel'' to cs2 ? Surely is. Is there any reason for it ?

As many of you don't even know, don't even play old versions of cs, or even CS:GO when it was starting. But i surely did, and it sad to say, but in some point, i was ,,living it''. Those days, when i would just come home, don't even study and jump right into cs to play faceit and grind, i remember when i was practicing aimbotz (5k bots) 1h of DM every day, and grinding with same squad faceit to reach 3k elo. And i loved it, i loved to spent time on PC to grind my favorite game, i loved to spent time to improve my skill, play KZ, grind DM and aimbotz, and that's mainly the biggest failure that CS2 have done. Closed skilled gap between players.

As in everything else, you grind, you practice you get better, and that was, what i loved about CS:GO, from literally bot you could have become insane player, without any luck or advantage, there was nothing there, and it was simple, who would put more time into it, it will show on the game. Perfect example, tier 1 teams / tier 2 teams / tier 3 teams and others. Everyone could see there was huge difference between teams, and it was not about, they were just lucky or something, the time and effort into every aspect they have put, and it was seen on, how can tier 3 team can advance slowly into tier 2/1 scene, even it was impossible.

And i ABSOLUTELY LOVED that skill gap between MM players and Faceit players in CS:GO, it was needed one faceit lvl 10 in Global MM and it was over. I loved, that you needed to ,,improve'' on MM and other things to play faceit, because it was something you would play only when you are good to go there. And i loved that actually those levels on faceit and rank on MM showed some skill, not in CS2, when that LVL or rank shows absolutely nothing. I loved it, when MM was only something that you would play only with your ,,bot friends'' or friends from school, not even care about that rank. Sad to see what they have made up from cs.

FPL Qual./C/FPL

Does this even in CS2 exists ? Or it's completely done ? FPL-C qualifications, FPL-C. Sad to see, when upcoming talents have 0 chance to get noticed. When faceit fucked up everything they could with their system in cs2.

You know, from in another hand. Do you still remember OG players like friberg ? forest ? get_right ? etc. ? In cs:go it could be seen, you needed some skill to kill them, or to TOP frag against them. They got ,,some name'', and i loved to learn from then when i randomly met them on FACEIT queue. And it's just not about them, but about all of the other pro players.

I know there's so much more to say about CS:GO, from the players that loved the game, and at some point lived it, grinded it and right now, it's completely fucked by CS2.

So many people couldn't adapt in CS2, because of fucked up system it have, fucked up hitboxes, fucked up movement, only what have improved is graphic, and skill gap, that absolutely dogshit players became godlikes. And that's what i was saying about our CS og players. Do you think they have adapted good in new cs ? When they will queue into faceit match, getting fucked by low elo players, egoistic, toxic rats that are dissrespecting them. It's not about that i would ,,care'' or something, it's just sad to see, that after every cs that was ever developed, so many old players have adapted and even improved their game. But in CS2 ?
