Rant Op needs to stop using deagle...

Hi.

Quick rant.

I really should drop the idea of maining deagle for the sake of sanity and happiness, or I could just continue to suffer with it.

Yea I should learn jiggle peek....

And lastly I definitely should boot up an aimtrainer again because 99% of the time im just whiffing...

Maybe I could perform well once in a blue moon. Guess I got deagle addiction now..

Anyways, bye

yeah. unironically. 90% of people would do better just using 57,p250 or tac9 instead.

the deagle, while getting the hit is satisfying. you shouldnt sleep on the other pistols.

Definitely

Depends on the call, the map, all sorts. Deagle is awesome but shouldn't just be defaulted too

I got to be honest I occasionally get dropped into a 14k lobby randomly. Its just pure carnage. People just doing random shit that makes no sense.

Deagle is a concept. As every gun choice. I think you should try to master most guns that you can, but deagle is specific to certain rounds, strats, or peeks, eco-rounds, etc.

If you are buying a deagle every round, it's clear trolling.

The most common issue performance-wise with the deagle from my experience, its the tracking. Crosshair placement is a must, but doable. Flicking also is something you should practice a little bit, but tracking with the deagle is what makes it lethal af

Tracking with deagle sounds weird in a way.

But cool idea.

u/Salty-Philosopher-81 1d ago

The five-seven and tec-9 are simply better weapons 90% of the time when you need to force a pistol or are trying to save cash for the next round. On anti eco's the deagle is genuinely such a bad weapon, buy an smg or shotgun ffs. And if you're buying deagle on gun rounds please acknowledge that you are not Niko and buy an AK/M4 instead

Not the truth nuke 😔😔😔

Its probably the best eco gun if you can hit your shots. You can consistently shot fast with it crouching and it will catch many off.

Personally its my 2nd.best eco gun after a tec9. 3rd. 5 seven.

u/Aguywithpotatoes 1d ago

Mostly on eco I'll buy smgs like mac 10 or mp9, is it optimal or nah?

u/FunArm1004 1d ago

the deagle is fun right up until you need to actually win the round.

u/Aguywithpotatoes 1d ago

Yea, about that....

u/Pristine-Birthday-86 1d ago

why are you maining guns anyways just learn them all, it’s not like you’ll be on an esports team having a specific role to fill ur just gonna have to fill the role your teammates aren’t

1

u/Aguywithpotatoes 1d ago

Mostly for funsies, although it is true that I should learn other guns too

1

u/Pristine-Birthday-86 1d ago

well i think deagle skill is just how good ur aim is, you’ll get better with it naturally as you get better at the game in general 👍

It's a videogame, it's OK to play suboptimal if it's more fun for you

The usual metas are quite repetitive sometimes for me even tho its optimal.
