Ingenious CS2 player uses Rubik’s Cube to play the game—and he isn’t half bad

Playing video games with all sorts of unlikely objects has been prevalent for quite some time. Popularized by the Souls franchise, this practice only keeps evolving. Now, a CS2 fan has solved the ultimate puzzle—how to play the game with a Rubik’s Cube.

A CS2 YouTuber aptly named The Unlimited Guy shared a video of himself playing CS2 using a Rubik’s Cube on June 15. The player goes around flipping the cube in all sorts of ways to move and shoot and even manages to score quite a few kills in the game’s Deathmatch mode. Though it isn’t clear what precisely he did with the cube to make everything work, it appears that moving has been tied to buttons the player engineered onto it while shooting is performed by flipping the right segment.
