The Gun that Broke CS:GO
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ต.ค. 2019
- Since the dawn of Counter-Strike, the game has revolved around two guns: the AK-47 and the M4A4.
But for a few crazy months, that changed.
The AUG meta helped Finnish hopefuls become superstars, and brought down veteran players who failed to adapt. And all it took was one, tiny price cut.
How is it possible that a gun with so much potential had been overlooked for so long?
Simply put, the AUG was a buried treasure, hidden in plain sight.

I remember when this gun was called as Bullpup.
1.6 ❤
Ahhhh the old days
Why was it called Bullpup?
@@CpttCanada Because it's a Bullpup gun lol. AKA the trigger is in front of the action instead of behind it. It makes it so you can make very powerfull guns of higher caliber while still having a reasonably short barrel lenght. The P90 is another Bullpup gun but made using SMG caliber instead of assault rifle caliber.
The FAMAS is another Bullpup Assault Rifle that's in the game.
The barrel itself is not that much shorter tbh. The idea of bullpup is to have a compact assault rifle in closer the size of a traditional smg
"the gun that broke cs:go"
oh are we talking about the tec 9, the r8, the cz, the aug, or the kreig, or some other weapon that was busted for a while that i repressed the memory of?
There was a brief period that you could have full running speed while crouching with the scout some years back LMAO
Ah, pocket AWP. One shot to the body at all ranges. Good times
tec9 for a while choose one
You forgot the UMP. 1200 $ M4 before nerfs.

I'm pretty sure we should be talking about the Krieg instead of AUG right now?
@@Plague_Doc22 I think any pro who isn't using the krieg atm is just stupid
@@Plague_Doc22 Almost every pro is starting to use krieg. It's penetration, rate of fire and first shot accuracity is just too good. 3 shots in body from long range in a easy fast burst with scope. While scoping the spray is really small too. Ak needs buff or krieg nerf.
Whats the krieg
donjenzuss problem with SG553 is that if you want to maximize the purchase, you’d want to be scoping. But T side is primarily peeking, you don’t want to have to scope into peek. Also, the spray pattern is opposite of the AK which will need time to adjust to.
I agree that it’s all-around better than the AK. 1st shot accuracy(even unscoped, more so scoped), dmg, armor penetration, utility... for 50 bucks more, it should be a no-brainer, but nothing is ever really that straightforward
@@godrichbempah8767 death
The AUG was in the CS game before CoD was even alive.
But cs1.6 one did not have scope.
@@userBilal91 it did though. but it only zoomed in the screen
it didnt have a 4x
oh my god you are so f*cking right.
@@dkskcjfjswwwwwws413 it was like that at the start of csgo also
No matter how long youve played this game you gravitate towards two guns, The P90 on T side and the P90 on CT side.
And that make any difference? The point is to win the game, doesn't matter killing w/ knife, r8 or p90. God, if a teammate can play better with a auto sniper, so be it, i don't give a sh*t
I play on a laptop which barely achieves 35 fps and a office 8 year old wireless mouse. So I use P90 and I end up beating dudes with awp, m4 and Ak

@@lamakicker69 pRiDe -_- lol
@@aarond7799 You can keep your pride, and I'll keep taking frags off you with the AUG and SG? Deal?
This was the only rifle I religiously used when I played CS:GO years ago, I can't believe it took this long for people to realize that the AUG is usually the best gun in every shooter. Hell, it was the absolute best gun in OG CS.
I used SG since 2016 I know it's spray better than the ak when they reduced the price I knew the gun is going to be OP I didn't mind them putting the gun back to 3k but why did they have to nerf it after increasing the price. It just makes me sad as I have to go back to ak, I had recently bought a stat trak skin for sg and they reduced the fire rate thus making me re learn the spray pattern for the sg basically punishing people even though they learned the sg properly. Now I have to learn ak again not from scratch but still I am not that good with ak like the sg.
@@toshal22 because the sg was ridicoulesly op, even more so than the aug was
@@srensen3081 then why did players never use it when it's price was 3k. And if then it was fine once at its original price why does it make it OP again.
@@toshal22 first of all, the price was originally 3300, and nobody used it because its always been seen as a trash rifle, and why would anyone ever bother learning a trash rifle?
@@srensen3081 well they didn't change anything about the rifle itself they just changed its price so why would a trash rifle be OP in your opinion. Also the SG price was always 3000; the only time its price was 3300 was when the ak had a price of 3000 in the beta.
Basically: Pros' ego and their whining
What? Valve fails as usual and changes the core of CS by putting a gun that had no business ever being outside of CoD, and you blame it on pro's egos? Yeah fuck it, just replace the AK, M4, and AWP with RPGs and rename the game in 'Brainless warfare'. And anyone who speaks against it is 'whining'. CS is different from other games because it was based on skill and was in no way noob friendly. This gun changed that, and it shouldn't. There is a way CS has been played for decades and Valve has no business changing that.

Imo sg is just waay better than aug. Its a one shot headshot has an easy recoil for the first 10 shots too and has a scope
Have you watched the entire vid?
But when not using the scope it has crazy recoil
The Sg pre recent nerf was probably the best rifle in the game, it's just no one wanted to learn how to use it.

I love how for the longest time Pro's elitism held back their teams and their own skill. Just too damn funny.
This happens all the time in competitive e sports. Pros are too focused on perfected the current meta that they simply don't have time to discover new ones. This might have exceptions but this video, and the most prevelant meta in overwatchs lifespan are 2 really good examples of this
@blur it was because players like NiKo didn’t want to use the aug and was stubborn about the m4a4
@PennyArcade you the kinda person that'd say "noob gun" unironically
They're parasites
I thought it was R8 smh

r8 didn't last nearly as long as aug did
Yea that terror lasted for couple of days. Aug meta was for months.
couldve been old awp, old scout mechanics. Cz, tec 9, old ump. r8, etc.

compare the augs noob weapon status to an easy to play league champion, and its just rinse and repeat, you wanna win? choose meta, improvise and adapt.

Adapt or die. That’s why I hate pros who refuse to adapt to AUG/SG meta
I'd say the aug and sg-553 being so good is a good thing, more diversity in weapon choice
I'm sorry but what? Just because you can now use them for only 50 bucks more doesnt change how effective the ak and the m4 are.
Some can't adapt. Niko for example.. he got insane aim but in a scope.
@@donaldbaird7849 They're less skillful weapons though. Weapon diversity is good, but only if things are balanced properly. With how Valve nerfed the Aug it seems like they don't know how to balance these weapons. If they don't then I'd rather they go back to the M4/AK meta than have weapons like the Aug and SG that hurt the skill ceiling.

“Revolved around 2 guns, ak and m4
awp: am I a joke to you ?
In competitive, there will generally only be one awper on the team, meaning that there will only ever be 20% of the total guns being AWPs. Depending on the eco, it would be 10% or 0% (one team has AWP/nobody has AWP.)
Although, in matchmaking, the whole team will be AWP. 😂😂😂

Old competitive games have this ego problem within veterans, which ends affecting new players as well
They just hate it that mediocre players can easily kill them with an easy to use guns. And if they are the ones who use it they cant produce same results.
now these gun are uselss tbh, you always gets prefired by ak or m4 easily now

@@srensen3081 you pay attention? they all had never used it before they literally didn't know how to and refused to learn
"It's not my fault that I can't adapt to this meta. I should blame the gun"
AUG was in the CS world long before you learn how to play the game. It's not broken or overpowered. You're just stupid enough not to realise that buying a better gun is just another part of the game strat. Can't play against it? Use it. Don't want to play against it? Quit the game
Yeah and it made sense, pay more get a better gun
Amen

@@oooooofburger4232 Thanks for proving that you are in fact the true loser here. Business (which pro gaming is) doesn't care about feelings. It cares about results. Plus the fact that your point about "respect" is just utter nonsense.
it's not even a question, these scoped guns were always the easier alternative to the standard rifles, they're noob friendly, they should never be competitively viable because they'd break the game, the game is meant to be played without scoped rifles, rifles are scoped because they're worse than their non scoped counterparts, it's how it always worked and always should, they didnt bring in a new interesting weapon, they made an easy weapon even easier and much stronger than its non scoped counterpart, it basically breaks CS fundamentals, but i doubt anyone understands that here.

Anybody still using A1-S over A4 is in denial..
@@assumingctrl Depends on where you play on certain maps. Train for example the extra accuracy can be nice if holding for example upper. But tbh you might aswell just get an aug instead and have the A4 be an option.
@@assumingctrl Agreed with plague, also it's been the meta in 2013-2014 till volvo nerfed the hell out of it. I'm not saying it's superior right now but still a viable option especially since the magazine size increase to 25 rounds. The only chance to get people adapted to it again in pair with the A4 is to slightly buff the accuracy or decrease its price a bit. Seeing it dying in the shadows is really painful for me
there is a reason why they had brought it down to 20 bullets then now back to 25... a 30 bullet a1s will beat a4 anyday.. even the 25 bullet change was enough for many to switch to it.. its just too op
@@CS_Uravity_PRO a1-s is better to spray through smokes, more accurate and easier spray pattern. Only has a little slower fire rate and 5 bullets less. I prefer a1-s and it def as good if not even better.

Yes dude just watched that again
Thats crazy that pros and the rest of the community were so worried about looking stupid or playing "wrong" that they didn't even consider using the most powerful gun in the game.
I read the title and think to myself "which one? "
I never used to overlook it like everyone seemed to... it was always OP but people refused to believe it
I love how everyone just realized how strong the SG is because of a few pro buying it, when it was way stronger than the AUG during this meta. And now everyone hates is
They copy pasta anything they saw from the pros. If the pro said that p90 is op they will implement that shit too
@@azmirjohari609 The P90 is noob rush spray and pray weapon of choice.
the krieg broke csgo more than the aug
Oh look it´s the ok sign guy
When I first started playing CS, I would always choose the CT group only for the aug and m4
This guys comb over is legendary
The AWP will always be the gun that breaks the game for me.
To INSTA DIE by some dude with an 8x scope with no sway cause he hit me in the belly button always got me mad.
And it's the only gun I can score a ton of kills with because my aim is too bad to hit the head consistently, especially no scoped.
I love seeing the inotorious clips
I still remember around 2015-2016 when I still play CS on regular basis, I used 553 pretty much as my main than AK, no one knows, no one noticed how broken the 100 armor pen on it. Then I moved on to play siege and got the news about AUG and 553 being a rising star
0:05 No i hasnt. The m4a4 was newly introduced in GO, before that there was only m4a1.
The weapon is there, not like if you’re not using it, others won’t. Use it, it’s right there and you’re not controlling the shop so you gotta adapt.
I am an gloabal m4a1-s player I feel left out
The tec 9 back in 2014-15, oh man what a sweet time. The awp too, movement was so fast back then ❤️
I bound fire to mouse wheel second round SMG no matter what
Shit I remember not using much the TEC-9 before it got patched because I thought It was a noob pistol (I used and abused the P250 tho, 1tapping full buy players in eco was fucking hilarious) then a week before the patch got into normal game I started using it and got like 1100 kills with her, thank god it got balanced.
9:38 that didn't age well...
*Turns on closed captions*
*Witnesses 15 misspellings of the word AUG*
For so long before that AUG price cut I was using the AUG and arguing with people about it. Felt good to be vindicated.
I stopped playing CSGO around 2018 but I can't tell how many times I've been insulted by both enemies and teammates for using the AUG as my main weapon.
I always had higher K/D rate playing on casual, with an AUG / SG553.
I know M4A1 / M4A4 / AK47 are the "standard weapons", but be strong, and find the best weapon that suits you, and not anyone else.
3:40 *Nothing wrong*
As an OG AUG player, I am offended by all players who started using it after the price cut, and never gave it a chance before that.
i thought this was gonna be a Ktieg video
me too.. had my doubts when I saw the AUG's on the thumbnail
**Krieg**
Kreig
*Krieg
They both have a really similar stats
Is everyone just gonna forget that the p250 was a one shot at one point
omg I remember those days. It was so bad when you could reliably have a decent chance to win all save rounds vs full buys just because of the op pistols such as tec 9, p250, and five seven.
without helmet yes, 2 shots on helmet dead. this and p2000 are my choices. Tec9 have got me uncomfortable, which i rarely get headshots with it, usually did but it feels off now, same as USP-S
Before he retired, Shroud used AUG and said that it's better than M4 in every way, but people didn't take it seriously since C9 was losing
The 2 scoped rifles have always been good since their 1.5 days. The ONLY reason why they were not picked up was the price. The logical reasoning behind it is very simple. If I can 1tap hs with an ak47, why would I buy a scoped rifle that just does the same thing but cost more $$?? Especially in the good old days where you had to actually buy ammo for your guns so resource management was important.
I’ve been using the AUG for years, finally surprised Valve nerfed it.
9:37 um that's not what happened
Its neither AUG or Bullpup. This legend is the STEYR
I dont get it why you dont mention that when this "Augmeta" was in live every map became CT-sided. And thats what breaks the difference between AUG and SG. CT job is to hold angles and be a "turret" and that why the AUG became so insane. T job is more about focus on to push map pressure, and if you're a T and want to buy a SG then think first " is the risk that i will drop this weapon to a CT worth it if i die"??
"Future looks bright for krieg"
hasn't krieg always been super op?
the thing about the krieg is the risk you take of CT's taking the weapon and then holding angles with a one shot kill 30 bullet automatic scoped rifle.
Krieg is worse than the AUG for a couple reasons, none of which relate to the weapon itself. First, as a T player you're unlikely to be sitting and holding angles for much of the game. Because you're pushing, you need to check a ton of angles and scoping in makes that harder.
Second, as @dregongora said, you will inevitably drop it over to the CT side and give them an incredibly powerful gun which makes your job even harder.
The point is, saying the Ts have a better gun than the AUG so the AUG isn't broken is unfair since you shouldn't be buying the krieg much as a t anyways. The nature of the different sides means CT's value scoped rifles much more.
How can a game that has so much analyses and competition ignore a good gun that has been there since the beginning?
ive been using the AUG for years, ignoring the people calling me out for being a noob and all it takes is a price change and suddenly i'm right?
yeah im just gonna wait for that price nerf on the dualies people gonna have a 5v5 ten dualies running on the field on pistol round lmao
1:27 talks about how good the aug is then misses 20 bullets on bots standing still
I used the "Bullpup" all the damn time in 1.3 - 1.6 :) Miss that old crosshair scope.
I thought this was going to be the R8
The game revolved around 2 guns. AK and AWP.
2:50 inotorious is missed >_
guy: cs is centered around ak and m4's
me: i main negev
The AUG was the best rifle since CS1.5/1.6. Accuracy and ability to zoom like snipers.
So it’s the players pride held back the AUGs potential.
Seems like people forget the Tec-9 ERA when fnatic just forced it and basically run and gun while 1taping enemies with full kevlar
such gangsta troll
Technically, in cs: source it revolves around the m4a1-s and the AK and i guess global offensive also counts if you use it like me
honetly now I just want to see valve remove the m4 and ak from the game for a tournament and watch the shit show
I see the scoped rifles as a weapon that allows for longer ranged attacking instead of the normal rifles, counterparts with longer ranges
Me: *Sees Aug in Aug week*
Also me: *Scream in Augony*
Turned out the AUG was just a prelude to a real monster by the name of KRIEG xD
A bunch of pro players refusing to use a gun solely because of its reputation is the most CoD thing I've ever heard
I just assumed pros bought the m4 instead just to save money for nades, but it's extra cost was literally less than that of a flashbang, which you could actually afford regardless!
It's crazy what sort of peer-pressure existed in this community for so long, that a literally broken gun wasn't being used the whole time out of fear of being called a "n00b".
I'm actually mad...

Yup the prowler was a hidden treasure for 6 seasons but when the r99 was vaulted everyone jumped ship now my prowler is vaulted ;(
i still use the AUG. i play in mid-level. if my economy can support it ill use it like a hybrid Scout/M4. most mid-level players cant shoot accurately enough at distance without an AWP. i also love the Kreig
The AUG has always been 1 of my favourite guns after the M1 though
thought they were gonna talk about the AUGpocalypse
It's so interesting how so many pros just refused to adapt and then pay the price for it, then just whine until they got their way, the gun was always good by the looks of it, just people don't try new things that could possible be better, and increase their chances of winning
If pros want to complain about newer people using it, it just means that they aren't good enough with it themselves.
It's just like ferrari during the 1960's complaining about the usage of downforce in rival F1 designs, saying that "oh they're just compensating for not having good engines" - when you can just reverse it and say that they don't know how to design *anything* properly, except the engine.

I like how CSGO Pros were complaining about a gun not being a CS weapon. The Aug has been in the game almost as long as some of them have been alive.
Did everyone forget about pre-1.6? If you had the extra money, you bought an AUG, not an M4.
CT buy AUG sit behind barrel on B and wait for that HS ace run clueless through tunnel.
You can’t say „the“ gun that broke csgo since valve used to break the game every 2 months with a different one lmao
Before the aug and krieg buffs the game resumed to: the ak47, the awp, the M4s, the deagle and the other pistols
A few minutes in and the Aug sounds like the tactical shotgun in TLOU. People called it things like the noob tube or noob cannon. It’s a lot like the Bow except it requires significantly less skill.
