New CS:GO match data could explain why Valve switched to MR12 in CS2
Valve decided to switch back to MR12 in Counter-Strike 2 after CS:GO was played in MR15. Many fans are wondering whether it’s a good decision or not, but the latest data could explain why the developers made it.
On Sept. 15, HLTV released an article about Valve’s supposed logic behind the move to MR12. In the article, they showcased a graph that points out how much time a full CS:GO BO3 usually takes, with commercials included. It turns out, it’s longer than football, soccer, and baseball matches, and also takes more time than VALORANT’s BO3.
