CS:GO pro community split over radical change to competitive format

Valve opened the floodgates to the Counter-Strike 2 limited test on Aug. 31, inviting the largest number of players in one single sweep since the sequel to the iconic shooter was announced earlier this summer. But it also opened the floodgates to a massive debate within the game’s ultra-competitive community.

CS2 is full of changes, but the biggest one might be the switch in half duration from 15 rounds to 12 rounds, also referred to as switching from MR15 (max rounds) to MR12. This means there will be shorter matches with the goal being more matches played, and this will affect competitive Counter-Strike at all levels.
