@Mothership funny how u delete my comment pointing out that some of boislipp’s posts are spam but not deleting his spam comments lmfao

@BoiSlipp do you think that you or anyone youve played with or against is better than spu
this whole conversation is like asking to ban the jj ashville ramp bomb because open players dont know to have a pyro or hitscan watching roof so its a free med pick every time -
crouch peeking is literally the most useless thing, why is this even a debate, it’s the easiest thing to play around
-
@Saturation that has absolutely zero correlation of what we’re talking about lmfao

@VeLT Please read the other posts that are on here. This thread isn’t about finding counters, but about having a discussion as to why this is still allowed to be abused. If it’s easy to counter for some people now, it’s only a matter of time before more good players find out about the bug and find really good ways to abuse it. I am trying to spread awareness about this existing in the first place because many didn’t know about it. I would narrow it down to not wanting to even give the potential to a sniper bug to grow out of proportions later on.

I don’t know about you guys but I feel like basically every advanced/invite sniper knows of the crouch peak and has already determined that its kind of a meme strat. yeah it probably owns in lower levels but that isn’t a result of the peak being good, its a result of the players not being good enough to just play around it. “spreading awareness” just means that lower level players who didn’t know this was a thing are gonna try this out now. this has been a thing for years and hasn’t been banned because it isn’t an actual issue.

To clarify some things on the RGL side:
- Yes, we’ve been aware of this strategy for a while now. Both internally and externally, the points in this thread have been brought up in the past.
- No, RGL has no plans of banning crouch peeking. It is not classified as something that is game-breaking. This also would not fall in-line with our other game exploits if it were to be listed as one.
- There are also points about the logistics of enforcing something like this, how it can even be worded (to avoid confusion and misinterpretation), as well as the accidental situations that can and will occur (Fallen Gourd brings it up in his post here).

@BoiSlipp pretty much every sniper from like main+ knows it. Nobody actually uses it as a viable strat, like really the only time people in these divs use it is to troll their friend (e.g. spu on ash vs timeless).
there are counters to it:
- get a buff and wide swing for the svs
- spam from demo/soldier or even spy can harass with revolver.
- bodyshot
- dont take the svs
can it be annoying to play against? sure, but its not going to be the reason why the other teams sniper “pops off”.
