AWP/OP don't belong to Val/CS

Just my opinion, maybe unpopular . But Point-and-click one-shot gun don't belong to Val/CS. Even some CS pros now vocal about how overpowered and say that AWP is noob-gun

if it's noob gun why people rarely use it.

easy to use hard to master

I started using OP in Valo and kinda mastered it for my elo (not that im pro with it but in my elo im good) and i ranked up very fast 2 times. Its kinda easy if you have the right position and holding the right angle than all you have to do is just click. Flicking isnt that hard too if you go into deatmatch and spwnd some time than you gonna flick like cned.

It was needed in CS to give the game more tactical depth, Valorant just copied it over

Stop playing duelists and OP becomes so easy to beat.

High risk high reward weapon

Yeah they should remove operator and bring odin 2.0 which is just shotgun but with odin's firerate and same number of bullets 🥵🥵🥵

can't agree more, this gun is cringe

nah op is way less impactful in this game than cs, good players can counter the op very easily which is why there are very few pure op players (cned, wardell)

AWP is so easy to counter in this game considering agents can do things like throw smokes through walls and breach/astra's abilities literally make it impossible to scope in.

It really isn't than op, it's expensive as hell and clunky, it's not op on defense like its in CS either because if you're stuck playing retake with an OP it's basically a save 90% of the time, really balanced imo

I feel like its just a matter of people dont think that far in a ranked match, cause in the better teams in pro play it doesnt seem like running the op really does anything for the side and most times just sets them even further behind the opponents. As long as you take active measure to counter it and make sure you identify the rounds that the opponents could be running op and use strategies like rotations and fakes as well as defaulting it usually seems to be easy to deal with. Once you close the distance it isnt as scary anymore
