Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because you were already dead. Origin of this meme
The origin of the ‘Summary: Shots 1-5: Clearly missed’ copypasta came from a Valve developer response towards a clip of a pro CSGO player (Hiko) missing his shots that seemingly shouldn’t happened. Ever since then, the response had been meme-d and shared across different communities every time there is a discussion or clip showing shots that didn’t result in a kill. People often do this as a nod towards this legendary comment.
Why was this meme so legendary?
CSGO has an in-house community joke where the game is visually bugged at specific angles causing the game’s character model not aligning with it’s hitboxes. It is also widely accepted that sometimes the netcode of the game fails to register player’s shots. This meant that when you shoot someone, the person might live.
Valve has always been very silent and mysterious on their projects and by extension they way they engage their community. Hence when an official Valve employee responded to the clip of Hiko with an over-analyzed frame-by-frame comment on why its not the game’s fault and actually the player himself, it became an instant meme by the CSGO community.
