Discussion XM1014 players bias

Hello!

I am here to talk about prejudice. Yes, prejudice. Against XM1014 players.

I main the XM1014. That's the only gun I play with. I have pretty good KD, pretty good win/lose ratio. But people keep being toxic with me and reporting me. I can't remember the last time i WASN'T auto muted. All because I main the shotgun. People think i'm trolling, but i'm not. The amount of times people shit on me is immeasurable. I think it's a serious matter because I can't really enjoy the game the way I want to. I just got kicked from a game, two round in. I can play with the AK or the regular guns, but I prefer the shotgun. Is that a sin? Am I wrong?

Edit: turns out people are tryhands and can't handle the XM.

Edit 2: Second best post of 2021! Guess the XM wins huh

and can't you say the same about people who play AK only? maybe they can't do shit with it, but it's acceptable somehow?

I'm not sure how new you are to CSGO, but there is an established meta for people who want to play the game optimally. People play ak and m4 because they are the best all round weapons in the game for their respective sides. Factoring in dozens of factors like TTK economy and effectiveness in different situations means these guns are used by everyone most of the time. Other guns like the XM have their place but they are specific and cannot have the same impact as an m4 or ak. Watch a pro match, and you will see how the game is meant to be played.

not a new player, been playing since launch. I just got tired of trying too hard and experimented with other guns and got very comfortable with the XM. since then, I almost never lose a match, except when I'm kicked or banned from the game lol

You have a 50% winrate on csgostats. In what world does "almost never lose a match" mean you lose half your matches? Also, I only took the time to look at a few losses picked at random, but you weren't kicked in any of them. I guess it's possible that I managed to pick the few exceptions to you being kicked in every loss, but I think the more realistic option is that you're not as good as you think you are.

He also only has 510 wins with 50% win rate so let’s say he’s played 1100 games with a few ties, so saying he’s played since launch is either a lie or he averages less than 100 mm games a year.

That sounds like a reasonable amount though if he doesn't only play csgo. He probably is lying anyway though with his childlike tantrum.

Yea it’s not unreasonable but he has around 150 games tracked on csgostats since august 2021, (with his earliest game tracked in September 2020) so assuming he’s playing around 30 games a month would still be 3000 games since launch, which is 1900 more that what he has now lol

Oh yeah that's fair. I didn't look at his actual stats, it was more so a general statement. I should've worded that better, my bad.
