Dr Disrespect explains why Valorant shouldn\u2019t be worried about Counter-Strike 2 Dr Disrespect\/Valve\/Riot GamesDr Disrespect believes that Riot Games shouldn\u2019t be too concerned by the changes made in Counter-Strike 2 as he\u2019s not sure it\u2019s incredibly groundbreaking. After weeks of teasing and hype built up by the Counter-Strike community, Valve set the internet alight on March 22 when they finally revealed Counter-Strike 2. Counter-Strike 2, which is currently in a limited test beta, is an upgrade on the current CS:GO mechanics and engine, moving things over to Source 2. That allows for visual improvements, an upgrade in server ticks to counteract lag, and new grenade mechanics. It\u2019s the latter that has caused a stir in the community, especially given that players can come up with new tactics to make smokes disappear with frag grenades. While Dr Disrespect is impressed, he doesn\u2019t believe Riot Games should be fearing for Valorant\u2019s future. Dr Disrespect says Valorant shouldn\u2019t be concerned about CS2 The Doc, who has yet to get his hands on the beta, talked about how impressed he is by Valve\u2019s work during his March 24 stream, complementing the devs on their changes. However, when he made the natural comparisons to Valorant \u2013 which has taken plenty of players from Counter-Strike \u2013 he stated that there are still enough differences between the two rivals to not have Riot worried. \u201cIf I was Valorant, I\u2019d be ok, we don\u2019t have to be too concerned,\u201d Doc added. \u201cLike, CSGO could have gone super crazy and tried to do something with the smokes. Is that just one little feature they\u2019re teasing? Are they eventually going to tease out a whole bunch of different things that are groundbreaking from a super-high-level FPS standpoint? \u201cIf I was Valorant I\u2019d be like ok, cool, let\u2019s just keep a focus on what we do.\u201d Timestamp of 2:28:50 The Two-Time noted that he thinks the changes are \u201ccool\u201d but don\u2019t get him \u201csuper duper excited\u201d to revisit Counter-Strike as he\u2019s all about the new games. \u201cIt will be interesting to see how it affects the pro scene. That might be fun to watch,\u201d he concluded. So, even if we don\u2019t see Doc spending too much time on Dust 2 or Mirage come the summer, we might him giving the tournaments a watch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
