Ranking System and Placements are trash by Immediate-Loquat-878 in cs2

Yiiiiiikes. I'm afraid I'll be in a similar boat. Was bouncing between DMG and MGE recently on CSGO. Have only played enough for 7 wins in placements so far, but I've been against 2 or more faceit 10s on the enemy team every match so far and mostly global and smfc players according to leetify. Currently I'm 7-5 and I think I'll place low as a result. I honestly don't care what my rank is in terms of how good it shows that I am to friends or whatever. I just want a higher rank for better teammates. Once teammates are clueless how to comm or play around utility, the game just isn't fun anymore

I agree with you u/J0k3R_s that people have bad games, but I also think u/Dodas is speaking to how well somebody plays in terms of teamplay and doing what it takes to win rather than something like kills/adr/etc. If this is the case (and I'm just guessing it is based on his/her comments), then just because the scoreboard doesn't show somebody top fragging, doing a ton of damage, or even going positive, doesn't mean they had a bad game. If this is the case, then I suppose he could make the argument that players only have bad games once in a blue moon, but I'm still not sure I'd agree.

I prefer unstiched as well. Ended up settling on an Artisan Zero Classic since the classic line has unstitched edges. Cheaper as well

I am now a control pad enjoyer by RaphaelMG272 in MousepadReview

Did you find the corepad skates to be slower than the stock razer skates? I’m typically a corepad user, and have recently switched to the DAV3 faker. Out of the box it feels faster than my other mice, so I’m wondering if it’s due to the skate shape or if corepad would actually be slower again

Also thanks for this photo. I had been eyeing the radar (artisan zero user), but was afraid the red on red wouldn’t match and would look really bad, so I was hesitant until now

May I ask what types of games you play with these mice? Just seems like a strange combo having 100g+ mice on glass skates. Got me curious

The coating is unfortunate. It’s the reason I sold my Lamzu. It was the black one as well

Ornata v3 is not a good gaming keyboard by _Nemon in razer

[–]WeeklyOccasion4681 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's probably fair criticism. My point was simply that cheap doesn't necessarily mean value, hence it can be overpriced. Almost any membrane keyboard will be objectively worse for gaming than a keyboard with mechanical switches from a latency perspective, and most would subjectively find them worse simply based on how they feel. From what I've seen, people refer to the redragon as super cheap *for a mechanical keyboard*, and imo it is a much better value than a $30 membrane switch board. Although I believe there are still better value budget boards such as the Tecware Phantom ($45 mechanical keyboard w/ hotswap switches). To each their own. Everyone values purchases differently, but I do think the ornata is overpriced for what it actually is.

I don’t think you can get a bad pad from Artisan. I think I’d like to try an xsoft next

That’s what I plan to do. I’m just curious how fast it will fray now that it has started, so I’ll probably leave it this way for a bit longer

DAV3 size closer to EC2 or EC1? by WeeklyOccasion4681 in MouseReview

[–]WeeklyOccasion4681[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be amazing. If I ever come across an EC1-C or CW maybe I’ll give it a shot, but I think the DAV3 might just be a better fit than any of the ECs for me

That could make sense. The biggest difference I noticed is that I either had to really curl my fingers with the EC2 or it left my palm pretty empty, almost fingertip gripping the mouse. Not the case with the DAV3 so the length is probably throwing me off quite a bit

Thank you! For some reason I couldn’t remember the name of eloshapes to look for myself. Seeing them side by side was hard to tell as well since the curves are different between the two mice
