In the universe of Counter-Strike, a recent post featuring a user’s 1v4 clutch in Dust 2 has picked up some whirlwind talks and amusing banters. The post, which – in a very ‘video killed the radio star’ move – did not come with any additional commentary, was submitted by a user named eddieee01.

Summary

  • Critiques on play level and setup suspicions stood as key conversation turns
  • User loppyjilopy was vocal about expecting a more ‘sick’ performance in the video.
  • acaseintheskye commented on the seemingly staged nature of the gameplay
  • few voices celebrated the play and offered words of encouragement such as user Comolletti and lleksird

A Little Too Perfect?

acaseintheskye might have smelled something fishy, hinting that the post might be a little too perfect. The user observed the unreturned fire, 1 on 1 fights, and oddly, eddieee01’s perfect knowledge of enemy locations. Yet not all detectives wore the same hat. Comoletti instead had words of encouragement for eddieee01, addressing the lingering critiques about the skill level of the play

One Man’s Trash

The sentiment echoed by loppyjilopy that the plays in the video were ‘pretty weak’ wasn’t alone in the crowd. The art of criticism flourished with EMP0R10 joining the chorus with the salty question, ‘Clutch? Where?’ Here, we are reminded that art is subjective. In the case of video game Fails and Wins, so much the same.

Shots Fired

Here the spectators divided; wooden 3, dust II escape on one end, silver 2 and easy bots on the other. As sexmebitch asserts, ‘This is the weakest shit…,’ implying that the opponents were no better than Silver 2 rank in CS:GO. RTPmark stuck it out with a simple ‘Wooden 3,’ rounding off the critical takes.

The dust has landed with a variety of opinions on the 1v4 clutch. From accusations of staged play to a debate on the level of skill involved, the crowd divided but stayed engaged – just like a well-orchestrated clutch in a riveting round of Counter-Strike.
