Should you play CS:GO stretched?
Best answer

Absolutely, if aiming to improve your reaction time! Playing CS:GO in a stretched resolution can make enemies appear larger and slightly easier to hit. It's a common trick many pros use to get a slight edge in reaction times. Though keep in mind, it might make the game look a bit odd and could take some getting used to. Plus, your FOV (Field Of View) will decrease, meaning you'll see less of your surroundings. It's all about trade-offs and personal preference!

Honestly, stick to native. Playing CS:GO stretched might give you bigger enemies, but it distorts your game and can mess with your muscle memory. If you're serious about getting better, consistency is key. Train your eye and hand to work together at native resolution for the best long-term improvement.

Nah, stretched is so old school. Sure, some swear by it, but with today’s tech and monitors, you’re better off optimizing other settings for a competitive edge. Work on your crosshair placement, game sense, and maybe upgrade your mouse. Those will give you better returns than messing with your resolution.

I play stretched cuz it feels like I'm hitting shots easier. Maybe it's placebo, maybe not, but why change something that works for me? Plus, it's kinda nostalgic, reminds me of older FPS games.
