Regarding Negevs: Unbanning them won't kill the scrim playerbase. In the event there is a magical amount of fun-killing abuse, then people will just agree to stop using Negevs or soft ban it in agreement beforehand; scrims won't suddenly die because people are incapable of agreement. To "abuse" a Negev, you literally have to echolocate yourself for about 15 bullets and stay vulnerable in a slow, crawling approach to retain its laser accuracy. If players are inept enough to not be able to fire at an essentially still target, they should honestly improve. Negevs are easily countered by waiting out bullets (through smokes/wallbangs/aggressive prefiring) and by not standing as still as possible into bullets which you should be easily aware of if you possess two eyes and ears (sorry @Rabid). In terms of the newer/worse players, they would have likely died either way, and isn't it already not fun to be completely trashed by the better players? There isn't really a noticeable difference in enjoyment until you're able to actually kill anyone, and dying to a Negev, getting one-tapped by an AK, or dying to an AWP aren't very different in that regard. There are far more annoying guns and situations to die to/in, and if anyone were to be genuinely angered by a Negev they shouldn't be playing a videogame which you die to death in. If we wanted to unban them with restrictions, there was literally a gamemode which limited the amount of times a gun could be purchased, and if that's unable to be smoothly implemented there are plugin options. Regarding Zeese: No money gained for a kill and you deserved to die scrublord, just hug corners less :^) Regarding Autos: Is really only strong in one-by-one peeks or weak rushes with low player awareness. The AWP easily outperforms it offensively and defensively, and a worse player who uses an auto would likely end up in a still, vulnerable position. Either way, you're going to die to a scope, run back, or kill them. It's not much different in the role of an AWP except that it allows people more forgiveness for a miss. Again, +1 to all. Don't BabyRage because you die in a video game :^)

+1 Zeus. if you die to it you deserve it. -1 auto, -1 negev. while I agree that 10 mans have gotten significantly lower quality as the norm, I don't think that we should just unban every gun and take away from the actual competitive aspect of the game both of those are literally meme weapons even in regular csgo mm. we still try to balance the teams relatively around skill, and there are at least 2 or more good players in each 10 man that if the less skilled players asked they would be more than happy to help coach them from their teams.

In this post im going to be explaining why I used to be such a scumbag on this community, though none of what I say excuses what I did, I think what happened was all on me. Ok, first time. The first time i left was out of rage because I spammed the forums, and was facing deserved backlash that I thought I didn't deserve. Second time. I honestly don't even remember. Third time. I left because me and my friends at the time (I still don't really know my relationship with them at this point) had a fallout because I was being a cancerous piece of shitand I became extremely angry and left for no reason. Thats about all the ones i even remember, remember i'm truly sorry for the asshole iv'e been to all of you. I really want to be a better person, online and in real life. Iv'e been trying (and hopefully succeeding) at being a better person on here. Thats about all I have to say, Goodbye.

general trade is gone

abusing a gun that's already a part of the game, might as well ban nutty from using a sawed-off..same concept. Also this doesnt really apply to you since you get carried every game. Steam Community :: Screenshot :: yikes STEAMCOMMUNITY.COM Steam Community: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. yikes yikes this is from a year ago and YOU STILL BE GETTING LESS THAN 10 kills @Genocide

Why not just enjoy both

Alcoholic: Jameson with anything or an old fashioned Non Alcoholic: Do I need to say it?

Yeah until you have a team of 5 people using the negev the entire game, WHICH WILL HAPPEN. People will use and abuse the negev and it's spray + corners. There is no point in making 10 mans 100% less fun than they already are.

Also getting shit on faster means you can get out of a trash game quicker. Also also, a lead dominating enough could mean you just meme up the rest to end it and goof around with your team or watch them fuck up at stratroulette.

I would say +1 just because it’s a conne map, but I’ve never played on it with more than like 5 people so I don’t know it’s weakness as a map
