well everyone named cobble but only because cobble was the worst of the best lol. cobble was a fantastic map and if you looked at all the maps that have been in the comp pool, cobble would be in the upper half for sure, with most of the today's pool being at the bottom. basically everyone says cobble becaues cache, overpass and train have been staples for so many years (and they have been staples for a reason, they were all fantsatic), while cobble was still just a soldi map.

They're probably having it just for the sake of diversity, since vertigo is the only map with the most verticality, and majority of the playerbase is into more horizontal maps like mirage/ancient
Honestly what Aleksi is saying is true. Sometimes making a lot of changes and feeling things out is a good thing, like Nuke and Overpass had a lot of changes and ended up being great. But Vertigo needs to go and make space for another map, it's like polishing a turd at this point.
As someone who actually likes the current iteration of Vertigo, true! Maybe put it in the Reserve pool and put Overpass back in. I'd really like new maps to replace Dust2 and Mirage at once, just so people choose something else in matchmaking. Even if the new ones are bad in the beginning, there's still Nuke, Ancient, Anubis and Inferno.
@@jeffreyespiritujr.4365 Yes, I'm actually just suggesting putting objectively worse maps in the place of Dust2 and Mirage just for the sake of freshness. Will it make the pros angry? Yeah. Will it be way more fun to watch them play the new maps? Hell yeah. Maybe not Overpass then, but anything new will be cool.
The old (~2016) Cobble was the best map to play as an advanced player. Only in pro matches it had some problem because of the smoke problems. Titanic B fight & drop are so fun to play. Even the rotations to A or retakes are pretty fun. I played about 1,000 matches there.
i was not an advanced player but that map was terrible in comp back then lol. no one ever went mid, long rotates, easy to get stuffed, 30% of the map is redundant empty space around T spawn. im good.
I used to include cobble in the queue, but most games I would just tilt because it feels less individually skill expressive and more-so just how good you are as a team due to how many angles you have to smoke/moly off and consider, meaning it's more RNG than skill for a player pushing alone, kind of like Mirage.
I never liked Train, everywhere you go as T is horrific. A main has dozens of tiny angles to be aware of, drop is literal death, both B site lower and upper are narrow, ivy is long and narrow. However, I'm fine with cobble never coming back, never liked that map.
Train good to watch horrible to play. You could called me skill issue but I never enjoy got snipe from people under the train or using train gap to snipe me... It's may not be like that anymore but still. You can't erase a terrible memory. Old train was like cs2 italy.
I used to hate Train but once I was forced to play it more I learned to like it. It's actually one of my favorite maps of all time, but T side is definitely rough on Train, I would change a few things if it were up to me.
Valve BRING CACHE BACK!! It's been too long, the map was puggy when it was in the pool but I think with how the game has evolved over the last 5 years we could see some really cool new strats on it. These pros would get to play in that sandbox again with a new overlook on the game and I believe it will lead to innovative ideas and tactics.
tuscan is such a nice map with so much history as a staple of cs esport + valve actually bought the map at the end of go like they did with anubis. absolutely baffling that it still hasnt returned or even been mentioned
where the fuck, is season. Dear god just bring it back already, it was in two operations in like 2015 and that's it. Never a competitive map, never in rotation.
They reworked it, it was great, and we never heard about it again. The map pool choices can be so frustrating sometimes. I just want to play cache, season and old cobble again.
The concept of Vertigo is cool imo. You are attacking a building site on the last top floor of a skyscraper if you are a T and defending it if you are CT. I like the ramp fights for control and the new changes. Not _as_ bad as lots of cs fans claim imo.
I think Dust 2 is way less exciting for the spectator. Vertigo isn't the best but I'm a bit biased to it because I like construction and seeing tall unfinished skyscrapers. I also think Train is a really poor spectator friendly map because of how dark it is. IMO best maps that get me hyped the most when my favorite teams play are: Nuke (best), Mirage, Anubis and Inferno!
Aztec was fucked beyond belief in a competitive setting, ngl. Nobody even wants to remember, I guess. At least we have Ancient to cover the aesthetics.
If you don't know why de_aztec is out… I'm not sure what to tell you. Seriously. That map was flawed from the very beginning. It is the most CT sided map ever created. As CT you should aim to win EVERY round. If the T's even gets a single round, you WILL loose. I'l bet that you miss de_dust as well? (hint, that's just aztec, but in reverse)
id bring back back old cobble any day of the week before the ass factory that is cache. I would agree though that cobble and train would be as boring to watch as overpass. Original cobble and inferno were my go to maps. High win rate for me. People were just bad at them. Then they ruined cobble and made changes to inferno and economy which honestly ruined a lot of maps. Despite what people say. many maps are now T sided now. They definitely didnt need eco changes on T. They already have the best and cheapest rifles, which literally makes no sense that the AK is cheaper then both M4s. They countered that by making m4a1-s have 25 bullets, but then changed it back again.
1:39 a lot of creative tactics on cbble?? really?? i agreed with aleksib with cbble tho.. its boring map especially for viewers.. not many "insane" highlights coming from that map if you compared it with other map like cache/inferno/train... its really just B long, mid and drop, because rotation takes forever especially with T side.
Cbble has some legendary plays and calls. Fallen's clutch, Cold's clutch, Olof, JW and of course, Snax and the big apple. Many more legendary moments including the Nothing/Shroud C9.
cobble has some insane highlights from fpl/rank s but not too much in pro play, a little rework to t side roofs for better executes, and give us back old sites then hell yea
based Aleksib, reject Vertigo, embrace original Cobble. I used to love original cobble, literally if they bring that back instead of Vertigo or Train, i'd start saying CS2 is good lol... well maybe not that far.
@@bane8305 honestly tho I like train but an A main/z rework would be a little nice. Just have one less lane looking towards main cuz you already have close olaf, hell, green, camera, bomb, z and ebox, and if they take pop then you gotta clear that first like, mad annoying to do every round.
