====== Counter-Strike ======

**Counter-Strike** is one of the most frequently played games in the Brain Gamers community. From clutch plays to chaotic team moments, it's a staple title that brings out our competitive edge and squad synergy.

> 🧠 **Fun Fact:** The very first Brain Gamers video ever made was a Counter-Strike clips compilation, setting the tone for years of shared chaos and headshots.

===== About the Game =====

**Counter-Strike** is a tactical first-person shooter that pits two teams, **Terrorists** and **Counter-Terrorists**, against each other in objective-based matches. It rewards precision, communication, and map knowledge.

While the original *Counter-Strike* began as a mod for *Half-Life*, the series has evolved into a globally competitive franchise, with **Counter-Strike 2** now leading the charge with updated graphics, physics, and netcode.

===== Why We Play It =====

Brain Gamers love CS for a few key reasons:

  * 🎯 **High Skill Ceiling** – Every round is a chance to improve aim, reflexes, and positioning.
  * 📣 **Team-Based Tactics** – Coordinated smokes, rushes, and retakes bring the squad together.
  * 🎥 **Clip-Worthy Moments** – Whether it’s a ninja defuse or an ace clutch, there's always highlight potential.

===== John's Trolling Legacy =====

No Counter-Strike session is complete without **John's trolling antics**. Known for pushing every mental limit imaginable, John has built a reputation for:

  * 💀 **Rage-baiting teammates** at critical moments
  * 🤯 **Running into teammates' Molotovs** often resulting in a competitive cool down for the poor soul
  * 🕵️ **Creating countless alt accounts**, including:
    - *Bart*
    - *Huey*
    - *Molly* (or some other deceptively female-sounding name) 

If you're wondering whether your teammate is truly trying… you might be queuing with John.

===== Road to 5K =====

“**Road to 5K**” started as a joke — and quickly became a tragic reality. The meme refers to the steady (and often comically undeserved) **MMR derank spiral** triggered by:

  * 🔻 A string of awful solo-queue teammates
  * 🔻 Being matched against hackers
  * 🔻 The existential breakdown that follows 13–0 losses

It’s a rite of passage in Brain Gamers. The road is long, paved with salt, but full of lessons.

===== Why CS Matters to Brain Gamers =====

**Counter-Strike isn’t just a game here — it’s a proving ground.** It’s where tactics are tested, tempers flare, and legends are born (or banned). Every victory, every defeat, and every John alt adds to our shared history.

CS is the thread that binds our chaos — a familiar arena where Brain Gamers return, again and again, to frag, laugh, and occasionally uninstall.
