the BIGGEST UPDATE to CS2 so far | Renting Skins + Economy Changes 

And the callout for vertigo catwalk on A site is called “austin” 😂 iykyk

3:40 the molotov and incendiary WAS different at one point, where the molotov would kill people FASTER than the incendiary. 3kliksphillip had a video on it.

There is a way to go to b as a t in vertigo wingman and it completely breaks the game. You run boost your teammate to b site and he can plant the bomb on b while there is no way cts can go b.

My first thought when I saw the molly update: one incendiary will no longer cover both broom and logs on Inferno banana. Wouldn't be surprised to see CT stats there reminiscent of CSGO

i love these changes, you dont have to feel like you're in the middle of the open as a ct when defending more forwards as a ct, and its not gonna be a left right smoke wall + rush a every round anymore lol

If Ibwere to confess my love to austin, do you think he would even care? 💔

The doppler skin changes bums me out. Only knife I've ever opened and it looks way worse now

I hope they at least increase the damage on incendiares, so that if they're not gonna delay rushes for long they should at least be more effective in actually stopping those rushes, right now you can pretty much run through an incendiary the first 2-3 seconds after landing with how long it takes to reach max damage per tick

Great video! Your editor does a great job ;)

If anything I would predict that kilowatt skins keep value and maybe kukri knives will go up as you still need a case and a key to rent so more cases will be getting deleted with no real skins that will last coming out

imo case renting is super smart if it's only available for the latest case, which might be their intention here since they haven't added it to any of the other cases. This solves the price decrease issue since when a new case comes out, you'd no longer be able to rent it. I'm sure valve took that into account.

Thank you for such a quick video on the update

Hi austin, will you make a video on the new vertigo? Explaning things like new angles and how the map is gonna play out

All 4 phases of gamma's are blue now. I'm livid.

Stickers will rise in value since you can prove it's your skin and not just a cheap rental if youve got a sticker on it

I like being able to buy smoke + molly on CT pistol now. For a while, I was going Smoke + 2 Flashes or Kit + 2 Flashes, but this gives a new option for pistol rounds since 99% of my teammates are buying kevlar round 1/13.

Great video, Austin!

ggs on the new vertigo today austin!

Your karambit looks incredible now!

Also A site on vertigo is wider so you can't do the old 2 smoke execute

thats why no casuals bother learning smoke "lineups".

Austin! Big fan of your guides, I have a request. I just got back into cs and I had mirage 2 times in a row and honestly I'm losing my mind on mirage when playing solo (no friends playing I literally have to solo for now). HOW do you actually win mirage premier solo? Let's be realistic, I can throw all the smokes, mollys etc. I want, but without teamplay it won't help much. Can you make a video showcasing the difference of cs solo playstyle? Should I just go full monesy mode abuse spawns and go for kills or is there a balance I need to find? I feel like the enemies are professionals with amazing rotation skills and utility usage while my team is just quiet and does random stuff. Thanks!

Time to grind some Vertigo!

I hope they revert back the incendiary spread nerf. Many molly lineups depend on the normal spread and learning different lineups to compensate for less spread sucks.

I'm not sure i got this right, when renting skins you rent everything except the knife right ? So some knife skins probably wont be affected by price change ?

Bomb plant bonus is 600$ only if they defuse, otherwise it is 800$

Hi bro i was wondering what is your viewmodel it looks very good hopefully you can write it down ;)

BRING BACK MY DOPPLER WTF

I would like to see a more in depth video on the Mollies

Maybe they could reduce pistol round bomb bonus? It wouldn’t make sense to earn as much as a mid game round on pistol round.

Good stuff as always ❤

What karambit skin is that? It's so blue now

Austin ILYSM!

"Great idea to spend 10 dollars a month to RENT skins if you're on a budget" This is wrong on so many levels

What pattern index is your knife

When you rent does it consume the case?

why not get vision pros instead of wearing glasses to look at a monitor?

Finally a big update, tbh it feels rough as ct getting economy going when t's are just perma forcing

I don’t think the skin renting is gonna have too much of an effect on skins as a whole. We don’t know how long it will be possible (Until next new case? Only for x months of case release?) and since it will always just be the newest collection (unless of course they decide this will stay indefinitely starting with this case, who knows) what will happen is that the first spike whenever cases are release will be much lower. But the insane prices even before the update wouldn’t last for long, they just won’t start as high anymore.

Rip my phase 2 butterfly 😭

Austin can you make a video of the new callouts of vértigo A site?

anyone know if you can change to old bob in this update?

lmao if ur on android, keep tapping to reverse the video im the very start and u can use his voice skipping sound with to create various kinds of beats xD

I love you austin ❤

Austin I love you ❤

Ruby, Saphire and ERMARLDS are finaly something special again

dopplers look alot different now

My gamma doppler glock looks more purple lol

I also love you austin 💯

RIP those people who spent cash on dopplers LOL

I kinda dislike the colour of the fire it's bit bright and doesn't looks like orange blaming orange, but the others changes are good.

what is your viewmodel

They ruined my pink p2 doppler 💔

why is no one talking about the fact that you cant sell on Buff163 anymore ??

I thought it would be possible to rent for steam Balance from other players when i read this

What the heck man, why the nerf to ct utility... The AK is already strong for the Ts, now they have the molly that's strong and the burning effect of the molly is kinda goofy

They made incendiary worse and yet it costs more than molotov anyway. Bruh. They should've also decreased famas to 2150 and maybe the mp7 to 1600 to be consistent but oh well

amazing)

8:26 please make a video on Inferno

Where's cobblestone 😢

Yoooo is that dragon lore? Nah it's rental.

such a good update

Can someone explain how this 20+ years old game still gets economy balance changes? One'd think decades is enough to figure that stuff out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

- glory hole added on vertigo 💀

The changes to vertigo are weird and will take a while to get used to, and I don’t like the idea of renting skins tbh

Amazing VAC changes, now I can get cheated on with rented skins. UwU

4:21 that's what she said

the dopplers look just like when cs2 was released and they changed it. Now they changed it Back again, i think theres a good chance they will change it again :D valve... master at marketmanipulation xD

niice the american man speaks again)

the most important thing is that they changed the doppers and people lost money hahahahha that's why I don't have skins and don't bash those who have them

Does opening to rent consume the case?

Does it not state in the patch notes that you can rent ALL of the items in the kilowatt case including the rare special item?

I didnt watch the video, but havent people rentend and loaned skins from skins collectors to tounaments ages already?

Game no longer launches after update. Good times

The incendiary always did less damage per tick than the molotov

Problem on the new catwalk addition to A is that the players will have to peek with their left side first that means the enemy will see you first.

I hate the molly change tbh

sure, but I dont really see the reason the incendiary costs more when it is factually inferior

W video

the most Low T person i’ve ever seen

Soo where's anticheat

I dont like incendiary change at all

you look like jack black

Who asked for the rental skins? Like seriously, who is this marketed to?

lol people promoting these scam trade sites still crazy to me

It’s wild they made cs2 look worse than csgo. The colors are puke tier val trash.

They fucked up my bowie gamma doppler it looks like shit now! This game is garbage! Valve can't do anything except add another box. RIP my 600$ bowie

Valve renting skins is basically an admittance to ripping off players for the lack of quality case openings. Also new vertigo seems shit

>BS skin crypto is finally reaching its end of days Holy shit, this is the best news I've heard since I first played GO in 2013. Thank you Valve

New Vertigo update sucks. I hope the dev that changed my favorite map gets fired

Rental skins are the best thing ever

I think they nerfed the incendiary too much, it look awful. The skin renting is also garbage

Who cares? Ac not working, shit tick rate. This game will never be fixed.

remove map and update it ? LOL , give new maps please !

Cheaters, server issues, matchmaking, smurfs Valve: here, you can rent skins now

How much fukups valve gon make .. terrible

this one ain the biggest

dislike for clickbaiting

“Wahhhhh my $1000 knife doesn’t shine anymore wahhhhhh”
