mantuu on Counter-Strike 2: It can up the levels of CS:GO so much higher
A beta version of the nearly mythical update is reportedly set to drop this March according to sources.
*This is a re-publication from an interview made with mantuu before the release of Counter-Strike 2.
The reported release of Counter-Strike 2 has been on every Counter-Strike enthusiast’s lip for the past week.
Something that only became more exciting when the renowned journalist Richard Lewis this weekend broke the news that the new update is “right around the corner”.

A needed refreshment
It was quite clear when speaking with mantuu, who's currently a free agent following his departure from OG this year, that he would welcome a new game with open arms despite his continuous affection towards the game that has been his faithful companion for so long.
- I'm not going to argue, like CS:GO in terms of how it looks with the matchmaking compared to other games and stuff, is completely terrible, mantuu said just to declare his deep love for the game right after.
- You just play CS:GO because you love the game, you love competing, you love playing against the best players and love proving yourself. But the game on itself and the updates are honestly terrible. The map pool is terrible as well. I have 13,000 hours in this game.
