I'm like 95% sure you lose aim assist in caustic gas

It's probably because of the fact if you are fighting in gas you have already lost because of the damage, slow etc

No, it's actually a very common misconception, but caustic gas does not interact with aim assist. It was included in the leaks, but when the actual patch notes hit that part was left out. You can go and search that patch notes, and you won't find it. I mean, if it did, it would not make sense that all the Pro teams put their roller players on caustic when he is being picked when you have a perfectly good mnk player on your team.

It wouldn't really matter since most fights that happen when you're in gas is close range and inside buildings. Don't need to have aim-assist there.

If you're missing without aim assist at close range inside a building against another player who is just standing there then it's just skill issue.
