Shroud believes Counter-Strike will die with CS2

During his broadcast on October 1, Shroud called for some changes to the smoke response in the new first-person shooter, before revealing that he believes Counter-Strike 2 will be the end of the series.

“They need to delete the smoke effect,” he said. “You run out of smoke when you’re Batman’s king. They literally need to delete that from this game.”

“I think this game is dying. CS is dying with two. I think it is. I strongly believe in that.”

However, his teammates couldn’t help but disagree with the former professional, hitting back and criticizing him for being negative.

“I feel like you’re being a little negative,” his teammate said. “It’s just the truth, I think it is,” replied Shroud. “I think it’s the end of Counter-Strike with this game. What I mean is we did pretty well, right?”
