CS2
GamesDefinition
CS2 is Counter-Strike 2, Valve's 2023 successor to CS:GO. CS2 introduced sub-tick servers (no more tick-rate complaints), a Source 2 engine rewrite, and a Premier mode with Glicko-2-style ratings. The game inherited CS:GO's competitive scene, balance philosophy, and economy. Tactical-FPS comp culture continues to revolve around CS2.
Example
"CS2 sub-tick changed the meta — peeker's advantage feels different." The new server architecture altered the feel of duels.
