Honestly, no, you don't NEED a mic to play CS:GO. I've played plenty of casual and even some competitive matches using just the in-game chat. Sure, it's not ideal and you might miss out on the full strategic depth of the game, but it's possible. Just be ready to type fast and use those pre-set radio commands effectively.

Not strictly, but yeah, having a mic elevates your game in CS:GO big time. Communicating with your team about enemy positions, strategies, and callouts is super crucial in getting those wins. Solo queueing without a mic can be a bit of a gamble, as you might get matched with players who expect some level of communication. So, if you want to maximize your impact and enjoy the game more, definitely consider getting a mic.

Gonna be real, playing without a mic in CS:GO is doing yourself and your team a disservice. It's a team game where info is key. No mic, no win.
