There are not many kids playing CS. Most of this is adults.

That is simply not true, why would you think that? Lots of young teans and kids play cs. My entire friends group were into cs and the genre starting at around 12.

When I use to play many years ago anytime I smurfed my matches were full of kids.

I 2nd this. I was playing CS 1.6 around that age. Although lootboxes weren't a thing back then and you could download and use your own skins from sites like gamebanana and have custom sprays...

Sometimes, I miss the older days. Just with better internet.
