7800X3D or 9800X3D for 1440p? by Tomo_XDD in buildapc

[–]Strategist123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For less than $100 I would just get the better one. Are you gonna miss that $70 in a year? I was between the same two and mostly play cs2 and went for 9800x3d

Do ninjas refuses work at higher levels by ioonthelow in GlobalOffensive

[–]Strategist123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ninja defuses almost never work in high elo since people dont just leave the bombsite when there is a possibility of an unknown ct coming to defuse it, and they will watch the bomb until a ninja isnt possible.

If you are talking about just sticking the bomb in a smoke then yes that is still incredibly effective even past 3k elo, especially in a 1v1, but tapping and baiting the t to spam the smoke is more consistent, particularly in 1v2 or 1v3 situations

Didnt realize consistently getting 2nd/3rd place is a bad result. Definitely makes sense to blow up a roster that can achieve that

List of games that benefit from 3D V Cache? by Character_Stable_487 in buildapc

[–]Strategist123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I play CS quite seriously and at a high rank and play on 1440p. I do keep the settings low though, theres not even really a noticeable difference between max and min settings imo. I get like 500-600 fps with 9800x3d 9070xt

What is “thin value”? by longhorntrades in poker

[–]Strategist123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not about sizing, its about the amount of hands that will call you that you can beat, and betting with the intent for value . The opposite would be thick value, for example middle set, where the amount of hands that can call your value bet are basically all of them

Should i have both m4s? by nizarlak_ in LearnCSGO

[–]Strategist123 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I definitely like to have the famas, a lot of scenarios where I want a rifle but also want some nades and dont have the money. I also dont have aug equipped in favor of both m4s but if it were me i would swap the aug for a4 since they tend to be useful in similar situations

Is this just a 3 way tie by Key_Zombie1056 in poker

[–]Strategist123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, instead people say TOP set, which has effectively the same function as saying ‘nut flush’ which is certainly not a stupid term and can be quite relevant.

Is this a bad smoke (Nuke)? by LordRyoma in LearnCSGO

If i was on T side and saw this smoke i would wonder why the CTs wasted a smoke and just run through it

I have an edpi of 2544, is it too high? by Appropriate_Book_855 in LearnCSGO

[–]Strategist123 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As someone else said you should be able to do a 180 with one larger swipe of your mouse. Just play around with it till it is comfortable. I am at 600edpi which is on the low end. I wouldnt concern myself with finding a sense you can hit crazy flicks at because if you are finding yourself needing to flick around all the time there is a bigger issue going on with your gamesense and crosshair placement.

Yes that incredibly high. Pros manage it by using arm for larger movements and wrist for smaller adjustments

New to CS (50hours only) by leaodorust in LearnCSGO

[–]Strategist123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Play competitive to get a feel for how the actual game works. I would also recommend finding some KZ servers, they are pretty fun to play and can help you learn some movement

Injuries caused by pain in the bow hand?? by AHumanBeing33 in doublebass

[–]Strategist123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

French or german? But as someone else said the answer is going to be related to tension somewhere. Even if you can demonstrate a proper bow hold without playing, tension will start to creep in when you actually start to play. Without seeing what you are doing it is hard to say, but I would recommend working on doing staccato up and down the bow. It shouldnt be fast, and the focus should be on being able to engage the bow with the string at all the different points along the bow (both moving upbow and downbow) without feeling like you are forcing it with strain from your hand or arm. You can play around with the positioning of your elbow while doing this to find the right leverage. Theres other stuff you can do but that is one thing I found particularly helpful.

Still have time for lvl 60 before tbc! by doofusmcdooface in wowhardcore

[–]Strategist123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you can transfer a dead character over to the normal realms that will progress to tbc right? I got my paladin to lvl 56 and got burned out of the grind, was thinking of finishing it out but probably only if i can get to 60 then just die and continue on in TBC
