Imagine, there is a version of Counter-Strike without skins and gambling and yet it is still fun to play. Even 20 years after its release....

Ok guys, let's be real. This game is better than CS2 and trashyrant. Screw battlepass and skins man, who needs a skin if you can mod your own weapons in your own server? In fact, its free!
