So with the leak of MR12, I'll just bring up something that I think might be lost by switching to it.

I've seen a number of people argue that pistol rounds might take up too much significance (agreed) and economy should be tweaked so there are more gun rounds and less ecos.

However, I'm of the opinion that ecos/forces/half buys/ upgraded pistols, whatever you like to call it, are a fundamental part of the CS fun experience.

Spraying down 5 people with an AK is good, but my most vivid rounds are those with deagle armour, manifesting kills with just some well place One Deags.

I feel like although in theory not much would change with MR15 to MR12, less ecos would actually impact the (vibe? flow?) of the game we might lose an important part of it, without V consciously realising it.

Having tried Valorant, I'm not particularly a fan of MR12, and I'm willing to give it a shot, but i also don't see the point of shaving off around 10 mins when you're gonna commit to a potentially 50 min game.
