CS:GO's huge popularity in Russia stems from the game's competitive nature and its relatively low system requirements, making it accessible to a broad audience. Plus, the esports scene is massive there, with lots of local tournaments and teams that inspire gamers to get involved. It's also a great way to socialize and team up with friends, adding to its appeal.

There's a simple theory: vodka and cold weather. Basically, staying indoors with a good game of CS:GO beats freezing outside, right? Jokes aside, it's really about the strong gaming culture and the popularity of esports in Russia.

Honestly, it feels like every third player I encounter in CS:GO is Russian. Not sure if they have a secret factory churning them out or what, but they're everywhere. Good teammates, though, if you can manage the language barrier!
