it doesnt really matter, you aim down the middle... imo its just about what looks better to you

Preference. Objectively there is no difference, the weapon model is the same size, just blocking a different section of the screen. Some people feel they aim better if they switch it around every once in a while.

i think the reaction speed will increase a bit since your dominant eye sees it first XD i think thats it :D , also i think the Ak damage will increase aswell by 25% when you switch hand

It's all placebo and preference. Viewmodel offset, viewmodel FOV, right or left hand model, crosshair, and skins offer a psychological advantage to the one who uses it.

Physically, hardly makes a difference.

This is non-sense. Play the way it feels comfortable. I have several friends playing professionally right now and none of them change the position of their guns except the one guy who is left handed so it feels natural.

All these little tips and tricks are just people trying to find easy ways to get good.

There is no easy way. You just have to practice...a ton. Every single person I know who is LE-GE has 2k+ hours of play time easily just in the past year.

Though it probably is placebo, the people who strongly believe in it say right eyed = cl_righthand 0 and left eyed = cl_righthand 1. Probably doesn't make a difference, but a placebo advantage is still an advantage.
You should have the as many view on the right side as possible so the right side should be weapon free xd

The very idea of placebo is that there is no advantage. There is no such thing as a placebo advantage.

wear an eye patch over both eyes, you'll play like a global elite

I have heard that people who are right eye dominant should set the weapon to left handed, so that the right side isn't blocked by the weapon. That way you give yourself a bigger viewing area for your dominant eye to see targets easier without the gun model blocking your line of sight.

I am right eye dominant and have always used the gun in the right hand because I am right handed and it felt more natural.

I can see how having the gun in the left hand might be better, but I have always played right handed since 1.3, so it would be too weird for me to change now.

Which all comes down to personal preference.

I'm left eye dominant and I have the weapons on the left hand side, but for me it was more of a personal preference since this way the model is carried as I see it in real life. I played with the weapon in the right hand since version 1.5 and only changed it recently (2 months ago) and I haven't seen any real difference in how I play. Of course, I'm a silver 4 on this account so take that how ever you see fit.
