Why is it called Protocols instead of Executes like in CS? Is it just because talking about executing stuff isn't family friendly or something?

They’re different. Executes are the site hits, protocols are steps to clear space and different angles

Why are protocols not mentioned in cs then and executes not mentioned in val? Is it just because of how different everything plays out with abilities and orbs and stuff?

It is mentioned.

Protocols are never mentioned in cs. Executes might be mentioned in val but I've never heard it.

they would be called defaults maybe. They may not be called by that name with the casters you watch, but they do exist there

I guess with the way valorant works an execute could be a default. I think that makes sense.

protocols are just a bunch of "if this happens then we do that"

I'm talking about the terminology, not if it exists. I watched pro cs on and off from 2017 since cs2 came out and I've never heard smb say "protocol" in cs.

nah most of yall are wrong. protocols are literally just rules for doing things

example 1: if we take control of front site/default of icebox A, we should also clear backsite as a team unless we have a big advantage
example 2: if we dont have control of uhaul or showers on bind A, we dont plant bomb
example 3: if we have a player advantage on attack, dont need to take risks or continue lurking unless lurk is not risky. just push a site as a team

default and execute aren't exactly the same thing

Protocols in pro cs tactics and tactical approaches have been existing since at least 2004 (maybe earlier? not sure), the terminology was used, you can go all the way back to player/coach interviews with Thorin ~20 years ago, or you can simply trust me, since I was playing during that time.

Set strats (executes), mid-round protocols, retake protocols, rotations, 2vX situations... all these are religiously practiced in CS for the last 20 years at least, the higher level you end up playing, the more you concentrate on these things. Where do you think Valorant got them from? lol

I'm afraid you're trying to make something true even though its not, simply because you didn't notice the term being used in the last few years on whatever broadcasts you've been watching. It doesn't seem like you actually know what you're saying...
