‘It requires some practice’: Dev1ce shares thoughts on updated AWP in CS:GO

The AWP, CS:GO’s most popular sniper rifle among professional players, was nerfed in the post-IEM Rio Major update earlier this month. Valve reduced its magazine size from 10 bullets to five, which could change how AWPers approach their game moving forward.

Since the update is so recent, the top-tier professional CS:GO players haven’t tried the new AWP yet in official matches. Thus, viewers don’t know if the weapon is still the strongest in the game. Lots of pros have said they don’t expect the reduced magazine size to play a big part in how the weapon is used.
