Here’s why CS is harder than Valorant
-
Movement : you have to counter strafe unlike Valorant. Bunny hopping requires skill to be consistent. You cannot just spam jump or crouch.
-
Gunplay : Can be split into many categories.
-
head hitbox in Valorant is big as fuck, even if your crosshair isn’t on the head you will still hit the shot sometimes.
-
anyone who has played CS knows how much of a joke Valorant’s recoil is. CS recoil is much harder to control and that’s why most of your shots need to be a headshot.
-
spray pattern in Valorant is RNG unlike CS, this means kills and spray transfers are much more random
-
RUN and GUN : running or even jumping inaccuracy in Valorant is too less
-
Well balanced : No overpowered weapons like classic right click, judge (one shot machine gun), marshal (machine gun sniper) and odin (machine gun with 0 recoil) as well as overpowered ults can that even low elo players can abuse. This lowers the skill ceiling by alot.
-
Hearing : In CSGO it’s a lot harder to distinguish where players footsteps are compared to Valorant. You even get a radius that shows how far people can hear your footsteps which lets you know when exactly you should run/walk
-
Maps : no much explanation needed, maps in CSGO are much bigger with more choke points except for dust 2.
-
General mechanics : You have to stand still to be fully accurate when throwing utility, you have to look at bomb to actually defuse. Armor penetration exists and 4 damage zones instead of 3. Defuse kit that’s required if not it takes forever to defuse bomb.
For people saying “Valorant has abilities” just contradicts your point. It makes the skill ceiling much lower because even low elo people can abuse it and get easy kills/info with it.
