You’d have to be a masochist to actually play this on steam deck or with any controller.

Unless they have some sort of “steam deck only” matchmaking, but even then it’s just not made for controller.

It’s not a standard xbox controller. There’s a gyro with several ways to handle it, including flick, which does take a little time to get used to, but works really well as a mouse substitution for such an environment. Some people are just that good with a thumbstick as well and can easily enjoy casual gamemodes.

Steam Deck is a capable beast, even for a game like Counter-Strike.

Yeah back when I played OW I regularly did console in PC lobbies (friends were PC) and I had no problem holding my own. Obviously I had a ceiling but it was from unplayable as many make it out to be.

Yes CS is faster and M+K has a higher advantage, but not everyone is trying to go pro lol

I’d say in this instance there’s a massive difference between CS and OW tbh.

I can believe that you could do well and enjoy OW on controller vs M+K, as the game gives you a lot of tools that reduce the need for good aim.

In CS, I just can’t see how you’d work around that though. To each their own, but I don’t see how CS could ever be enjoyable on controller vs K+M.

As I said, CS is clearly more sensitive to the console/m+k divide. My point is you can still play it. I play CS on Xbox for years (there were dozens of us!)

Yes you’ll lose more but again, not everyone is trying to go pro lol

If you’re not playing to win when you join a team in a multi-player game, you should just stick to single player
Yes because if I’m not playing at 100% at all times with gamer fuel, a 500fps monitor, and my $400 RGB disco mouse, i may as well not at all.
Yeah, I don’t fucking care how abled you are when you’re throwing games

At least you’re honest about your bigotry. Not that it’s worth much, you’re still a bigot. But yeah at least you don’t pretend otherwise.

Have a good one man. Hope you lag out your next match.

Bigotry is when I expect that people enter a competitive team environment without the intent of fucking their team over. Enjoy carrying every retarded troll trying to make you lose.

Yes because no one plays any games casually lmfao

Good luck esports champ! You’ll get that sponsorship one day!

Lmao what kind of worthless troll edits out his entire comment?
It’s not my fault you obsessively hit F5 waiting for responses and don’t give someone 7 seconds to change their mind about their comment.
Lmao what’s obsevvive about seeing a notification for an ongoing conversation and responding without first reloading to be sure you didn’t chicken out
Don’t chicken out and fix that typo now
