Haven't tried that distro specifically, but I have been gaming on Linux for at least 4 years now and Counter Strike is not a problem at all. It is my most played game and it works great for me on Linux mint.
I imagine running it on a distro that has a focus on gaming will only make it run even better and easier.
Give it a try!
@hanke @DV8 Valve is highly unlikely to put a kernel-level anticheat that bans Linux users but as a piece of advice, don't run competitive multiplayer games on Linux, I mean do not get accustomed to, that also should apply to me since I play Palworld which is MP only, even on SP, you can have someone join at any time
I would recommend anyone to play competitive multiplayer games on Linux.
Competitive games, and specifically CS, has been my go-to for about 10 years (I am still shit tho). As you say, Valve will most likely not put anti-cheat that won't work on Linux in it. But if they would do that, I would just not be playing CS anymore.
I play what I like, and if they would make the stupid choice to break it for my machine I guess they just don't want me playing it any more. In that event, I guess I'll just have to find something else to play.
