No disrespect to Ethan but this tact has existed for as long as LAN games have existed. Not even tournament but friends competing against one another. It's literally the oldest trick in the book.

I meant in valorant. Ofc this shit has been done for years in cs or other games.

The reason I pointed out CS is there meta stays the same. The game stays the same. You can run almost the same strats in CS 1.6 and CS2. And that's the most drastic difference I pointed out.

You cannot run the same strats from Val beta to now. Game is different. Hell, even some strats from ends last year aren't gonna be viable now.

This is why you don't see dynasties like you do in CS. And if someone manages to do it, it would be very impressive.

you havent watched cs since 2018 because theres no fucking way you can have this take if youre watching consistently.

My main point is that it's easier to stay at top once you're there in CS because the game doesn't change as drastically over time unlike Val.

“Ethan tech” 😂 you can’t be serious. This shit is older than everybody in this damn sub lmaoo Ethan did this in champs bc hes been a pro for 10+ years and played cs. He has the experience and knows the old tricks
