[jwplayer QIWQDyD7] The entire argument falls back on the \u2018PC Master Race\u2019 idea, with players believing that mouse &#038; keyboard on PC is the optimal way to play any game, especially when it comes to first-person shooters. Obviously, it all comes down to personal preference. In CoD alone, we see players like Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff stick to his controller roots, while his oft-teammate Tim \u2018TimTheTatman\u2019 Betar prefers to play on mouse and keyboard. xQc falls into the same category as Tim, having made his name as a professional Overwatch player and one of Twitch\u2019s top streamers on mouse and keyboard \u2014 and clearly doesn\u2019t have the highest opinion of controller players. While playing through the new Black Ops Cold War campaign on a controller, xQc explains why quickscoping on a controller isn\u2019t that impressive, but it quickly comes back to bite him. \u201cThere\u2019s bullet magnetism, there\u2019s auto-aim, there\u2019s crosshair magnetism\u2026\u201d the Canadian star said, before telling his viewers to look at how easy it is. He then proceeded to miss several more shots than he hit, instantly proving himself wrong and regretting mocking controller players before actually testing what he was talking about. \u201cIn this case,\u201d he continued after missing a flurry of shots, \u201cit\u2019s a glitch. It\u2019s a glitch.\u201d xQc went sheepishly silent after the clip, while his chat burst out in laughter given the incredible timing of what he had been saying about quickscoping on a controller. Obviously xQc won\u2019t be that upset about it, but he might think twice before he makes comments like that about controller players again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>xQc immediately regrets mocking CoD controller players Activision\/Twitch: xQcThe mouse and keyboard versus controller debate is one that will likely last forever, but Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel had a rude awakening when discussing how \u201ceasy\u201d playing Call of Duty on controller is.
