duke:
I don't know how you guys come up with this, there is some truth to it, but not enough data to come up to any sensible conclusions. The examples that you gave:
1) Italians defend - that's mostly Rounin, hahahahate snipes, Unclegrandma just jumps around aimlessly
2) USA attacks - Dead_Dredd I'd agree, but Kyhado - plays midfield (leaning towards defence), AN - plays midfield, SaintHappening is mostly on defence, FlipFlopKerry mixes it up. If there's one country with an attacking mentality I would say it's Poland - our 4 best players - Plakatowy, Belial, ESCOBAR, myself - we are pretty much all on attack 90%+ of the time. And btw Kuha - I'm the one one who complains a lot, but the vast majority of time it's aimed at my own team for not doing crap. Having said that we are known for complaining a lot xD Blame the weather xD

Piglet:
(FI) - remarkably good aims. Not very chatty - isn't that just Kuha? And he chats a lot too xD
(FR) - France has some of the best attackers, I agree, but there are so many players and I can name from each group - stephanie, Paco on attack, HellFire midfield, corsica sniping, MasterofPuppets, moi on defence

This is the way I see it:
Snipers/campers = people who hate taking risks and want to feel good about themselves despite not adding anything to the table most of the time, probably gives them the illusion that they are helping the team and in reality they are just extremely annoying and nothing else. In investing = people who keep their money in their socks or buy bonds ;D
People who defend = really responsible players and pretty much the core strength of the team. You could have the best 3 attackers in the game, without a proper defence they will most likely lose. Defenders - tacticians, often not too flashy, but getting the job done. Great defence = great foundations of the team. In investing = people who buy index funds ;D
People who attack = people who like taking risks, get bored fast, like to have fun even despite losing their dignity, are not a fan of teamwork and like to work alone (and Sup, that's not selfish - you can't call people who cap multiple times per map selfish, they are the reason the scoreboard is even moving). In investing = people who buy crypto or play stocks with high leverage ;D

If we go further I've noticed (but again, it's a small sample) that girls most often like to defend than attack. Draugr, Vasabi, HLK 7 I believe are pretty much on defence all the time (and use flak as their main weapon), Risel is kinda playing midfield leaning towards defence unless there's a manta on a map in which she's on attack a lot, tirofijo plays midfield a bit too and can attack once or twice per map depending on the circumstances

Paul:
Yes, we ALL use cheats

Paul:
And in general, we are increasingly getting puttin as a president XD

Kuha:
Lmao Duke.

 I think Piglets view of finish players from freon players Nyrde/Jaska they dont talk that much.

How much we say that nationality matters? Im half turk and tatar, 0% Finish i grew in turkish culture in Finland do i play more like Soma or more like other finish players? Would my teen years where i started to live more like Finish ppl minus alcohol that now im in same basket as Nyrde/Jaska? But Jaska says hes imigrant so hes not Finish either so he just happens to have good aim and not talking much like Nyrde. Then what about Assmonkey hes Finish who lives abroad but he has awful aim is it cos he does not live in Finland?

Then we can even look at the Belgium guys they have Netherlands and France side. Does one side produce better players? Quadro is from the Dutch side while Lexa French. Dont know where Dwnkins is from but still they all have great aim and great game sense. We can say Shockcat who is from Netherlands has good aim so does he share same points as Quadro? Hell is from France yet hes not any where good as Lexa so does the Belgium nationality matter more?

Does age matter? Does time of play? Gaming history? Personality? Relationships? Hardware? Location compared to server location so ping?

But in the end what matter is the person behind the screen. I got Quadro to play Apex legends with me and he learns the game mechanics fast and easily. The game has movement mechanics like in UT where u can abuse it to move faster needing more skill and time to learn. I know the basic how to do them yet i cant. Quadro needed less than week and he heard the movement looked up and learned them. Only thing i have up against him  is gameknowledge but in time he will have it too. Does the Belgium nationality matter? Lexa is god in Apex so is Shock but they have gameplay hours in 1-2k+. Im only at 340, Quadro has less than me but its only matter of time.

English is hard :(

This is an observation based around experience of banning botters and playing with/against people.

It would be more accurate to say "(RU) - more players caught cheating than anywhere else".

The second part was an observation that players who were not cheating with IPs flagged as "(RU)" did not exhibit any noteworthy general features. There's just a normal range of experience playing with/against them.

It's not entirely clear whether this is an admission or sarcasm.
