Yeah, you totally can play CS:GO on a mobile hotspot, but just remember it might not be as smooth as your home wifi. The real deal is keeping an eye on your data usage cuz CS:GO can chew through it, especially if you're playing for hours. Also, expect a bit higher ping, which can make or break your game depending on how competitive you are.

Honestly, using a mobile hotspot for CS:GO? Prepare for a world of lag and frustration. Wired connection is the way to go.

Def played CS:GO on a hotspot before and it works fine. Just make sure you got a strong signal and enough data. Ping's a bit higher but totally doable for casual play.

I've played CS:GO on my phone's hotspot while traveling. It's alright for casual gaming, but wouldn't recommend for serious ranked matches. Just keep an eye on that data usage!
