Shroud explains why CSGO players are \u201cthe best gamers of all time\u201d Twitter: Shroud \/ ValveMichael \u2018Shroud\u2019 Grzesiek believes CSGO players who grew up playing Counter-Strike 1.6 and 1.5 are \u201cthe best games of all time\u201d and explained why, although some might say he\u2019s biased. Shroud\u2019s insane aim and decorated career as a professional CSGO player are the reason why so many people consider him to be a god-tier gamer. And it\u2019s one of the main reasons why thousands of Twitch viewers tune in to watch him own. However, it\u2019s easy to forget that he developed those skills as a kid playing Counter-Strike 1.5 and 1.6, and he believes other CSGO players who played those games growing up are \u201cthe best gamers of all time.\u201d However, it\u2019s not for the reason you might expect. \u201cI personally think people who played Counter-Strike 1.6 and 1.5 growing up\u2026 are the f**king best gamers,\u201d he said. \u201cThose are the best gamers of all time in any game.\u201d He \u201cdoesn\u2019t know\u201d what it is about the game that makes its players \u201cso good at everything,\u201d but he swears it \u201cjust happens.\u201d \u201cI don\u2019t think it has too much to do with the mechanics of the game itself,\u201d he added. Instead, his best guess is that when people played those games, \u201cthere were so many different games and genres coming out [and] they were playing it all.\u201d So, rather than having anything to do with the game\u2019s mechanics, Shroud believes it\u2019s more about the time at which CSGO players played those games. But that doesn\u2019t mean he thinks they should stick with it forever. After having some initial qualms about Valorant, he\u2019s changed his tune and admitted it\u2019s so good that it makes him fear for CSGO\u2019s future. He\u2019s even urged players to make the switch in the past. So, while he thinks CSGO\u2019s predecessors produced the world\u2019s best gamers, it seems like he no longer thinks it\u2019s the best game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
