https://steamcharts.com/app/730 their average players only around 500k monthly means no one plays csgo that much, they just watch tournament.

Also, valorant viewerbase is quite a bit younger than CS viewerbase and fanbase.

This means they tend to default to individual streamers, which is why Valorant tends to top CS when it comes to average viewership of just streams.

Many of these kids aren't even aware or interested in the esport.

These are random numbers pulled out of my ass but in my experience, if someone is above average in CS, theres like a 90% chance they follow the pro scene, whereas in Valorant that chance is much much lower.

Why are csgo fans so annoying? Only bring up views when they literally have their major tournament going on? They get so mad when ppl criticize or don't think cs is the best. By far the most insecure fps fanbase community.

I'm not a CS fanboy but tbh, average viewers don't really matter. Both games want to be the premier FPS esport, and CS is doing better than valorant, that is a simple fact.

To see how popular a game is, tournament views are more important than average viewers if you ask me, since average viewers is very much influenced by the personalities that are playing, not always the game itself

Before I get downvoted into hell: I much prefer valorant but when it comes to esport popularity, CS is still the top FPS

I played CS for 8-ish years. Ofc I'm going to be talking about comparisons a lot - and if you actually read my comments about CS, they're mainly illustrative and mostly in favor of Valorant. I still prefer Valorant, why would I lie about that?

If you'd see my HLTV profile, half my comments are about Valorant.

You just made a shit point, so take the L and move on instead of getting defensive about an indefensible position

The popularity of a game is very much related to twitch/stream viewership there are correlations (See games like league, fortnite, apex legends, GTA) . Cs is just not a game that casual players can easily get into or play. You have to go thru 3rd party to just get decent ranking experience with less cheaters. In some regions world wide its literally dead scene and filled with cheaters because of terrible anti-cheat. Its a better esports because its been there for quite literally 20 years.
