OpTic_IND_forsaken [#7]In Asian countries (except Korea) most of us cannot afford quality pcs like Europeans and there is so less game population
I think this is the only reason
main reason is fps experience, europeans have 20 years of experience in csgo which means they have the best idea of how to play the game fundamentally
Matrix13e [#13]cned,Trent,alfajer?
Cned was playing a turkish csgo ripoff before, Trent is from na and not even tier 1, alfajer maybe

in brazil and russia we can't as well
emerging countries
alitmanus [#17]in brazil and russia we can't as well
emerging countries
russia isnt that poor and brazil is rich and big enough to have a lot of quality players
idkbro [#18]russia isnt that poor and brazil is rich and big enough to have a lot of quality players
reality: both emerging countries like india
being Russia and Brazil so poor that got famous by piracy
Valgod [#11]this is irrelevant, not a single pro came from valorant ranked yet. All of the eu pros are former cs players
The point still stands as CSGO is far larger in Europe than in other continents as well

reality: brazil is considerably richer than india and russia is on a similar level to other european countries and expected to reach very high levels in the near future so reality is these countries are nothing like india in terms of development, specially russia
Yuiaq [#8]eu is richer and has more pc gamers = better talent
difference between cis average salary and asian countries isnt big and cis breeds so much talent in every esport,even a team from Kazakhstan in cs has won a major and a lot of them have to play with like 100 ping in faceit

Germany is not average european country, they are one of the richest and are the richest by far among the big european powers. Compare Russia gdp per capita/HDI to other european countries and india/brazil and you will see the difference, you dont need a norwegian salary to be able to afford a pc either lmao, also you dont seem to be taking into account that prices of products are different depending on the purchasing power of said country, also remember Russia is a FEDERATION that goes from Europe to bordering with Alaska so there are some remote regions that lower the average salary, western Russia which is where 99% of top russian players are from have a good quality of life comparable to the average european country, not the same to be from moscow (most populated european city btw) or chechnya
Zapkhiel [#32]Because europe is richer and has better infrastructure
agreed the trollies in EU go hard
kkona12345 [#29]it was 3 kazakh and 2 russians it was a kazakh team,both of them on average do not have money to buy good gaming pcs or anything else nice
not true, they probably dont have as many pcs per capita as sweden for example but they are still richer than 80% percent of the world and many people can afford pcs, I also have met a lot of LATAM people through gaming in my life and even a good number of them can afford to have decent pcs and khazaks are richer than most of LATAM so they have a good chance of having good players too, if latam which is basically banana republics can afford some pcs then every1 decently wealthy country can

lol you're so delusional
the only things that are cheaper are some commodities, technology have the same price (some are even more expensive bcuz they're imported)
Russia is as poor as Brazil, Brazil just don't hide its poverty like Russia does.
showing only the "bright side"
kkona12345 [#36]the average Brazilian isnt much richer than any asian lol
but they are richer, arent they? specially the ones from the big cities full of white people

You are the delusional one here, take a look at the data, western Russia is on a similar level to for example baltic countries who are known to have some of the best pro players per population ratio in fps games
idkbro [#40]but they are richer, arent they? specially the ones from the big cities full of white people
I live in one of those cities (it's called curitiba)
the average wage here is the same as the rest of the country (240 euros, like in Russia)
"full of white people"
weirdo
evvve [#37]its only 1500 in germany? wtf
he is so stupid he probably took wrong data, no way its only 1500 in Germany, thats the average of my country and we are way below them
idkbro [#40]but they are richer, arent they? specially the ones from the big cities full of white people
no? u are talking about asia overall comparing it to singular countries and some cities in it lmao,not to mention the fact a lot of those poor Asian countries have pc bang culture instead of gaming at home,the same is also in some poor balkan countries

look at the data, brazilians from the big coastal cities are much richer than most asian countries, you are underrating your own country, you guys are in a pretty good spot compared to other 3rd world countries

weirdo? why? are we gonna deny the fact that descendants of white people are richer than the mulatos and black people that live in the favelas? why do you think most brazilian players are white or at least 50% white?
kkona12345 [#45]no? u are talking about asia overall comparing it to singular countries and some cities in it lmao,not to mention the fact a lot of those poor Asian countries have pc bang culture instead of gaming at home,the same is also in some poor balkan countries
yes they are richer, not to mention internet in brazil is the best in all of latam and that its a very populated country with a good % of people being able to afford pcs, even if a 20% of brazil can afford pcs its already more or similar level to sweden which has almost a 100%

avarage salary doesn't mean shit if you don't have distribution
thiagomds [#53]avarage salary doesn't mean shit if you don't have distribution
and you know they don't have distribution because? Many poorer Asian countries also have a lot pc bangs for that reason
kkona12345 [#50]did you read my comment
there is pc bangs in most countries, I live in a pretty rich country and there are pc bangs available for cheap, you are also commiting the mistake of thinking these countries arent rich enough for most people to be able to afford a decent pc, you dont need to be on western europe level to do it, I live in western europe and I could afford to buy a shit ton of pcs so why couldnt these countries even afford 1? idk what point you are trying to make, even if pc bangs culture is big in those asian countries, fps games are big in brazil and other CIS countries, just look at gaules m8, the numbers he gets are incredible, brazil is one of the most passionate about fps games and they very populated and rich enough for most to be able to afford a decent pc so idk what we are even discussing anymore, same goes for khazakstan, there is also 3-4 good khazak players so its an outlier, its not the norm for them to be good, another example is spain, movistar riders is a pretty decent team in csgo but there is literally no scene apart from them, its similar for khazakstan
thiagomds [#51]I don't know in what world you live.
why? even if its not the case for you brazil is big and although not rich it is still richer and more developed than most countries so chances are that a 210M country can produce top players specially if the interest in fps games is that big and russia is fairly rich, you can check the data

ok but what does this have to do with my point lmao,also kosovo is poor af most people are def not able to afford a pc thats why they play in pc bangs,i know 1 pc bang in my whole country
kkona12345 [#57]ok but what does this have to do with my point lmao,also kosovo is poor af most people are def not able to afford a pc thats why they play in pc bangs,i know 1 pc bang in my whole country
idk anymore, I am getting confused because of the other brazilian idiot saying stupid shit, the thing is that you are underrating khazaknstan and some of the other countries, you dont need to be the richest country itw to afford a DECENT pc and also there arent many good khazak players, the ones that won a major are outliers, also pcs can last for a lot of years and sometimes replacing some components is enough so you dont need the biggest purchasing power to afford one

kkona12345 [#57]ok but what does this have to do with my point lmao,also kosovo is poor af most people are def not able to afford a pc thats why they play in pc bangs,i know 1 pc bang in my whole country
yeah kosovo is pretty poor, idk how it is in armenia but in most of western europe there is a good amount of pc bangs to go to, also they dont use the name "pc bangs" and arent quite like the korean ones but they work well, the thing is khazakstan is rich enough for its population to be able to afford pcs (at least a fair amount of the population) and produce some good players, they are also more developed than most asian countries outside of korea, japan, singapore, macao, etc.. I think in the end you have a wrong idea that a decent (not even a top pc) is not affordable for lesser rich countries, in my country if you want a pc that goes 300+ fps in valorant constantly it is something like 2000 euros, a decent one that can run valorant could even be for as cheap as 700 euros if you are smart with your money, its also an investment that can last for many years so its def affordable
kkona12345 [#54]and you know they don't have distribution because? Many poorer Asian countries also have a lot pc bangs for that reason
it's politics, almost every underdeveloped country doesn't have industrialization, investment in high tech and rely on commodities. Because of that they have to import eletronics and sell way more expansive(and this afect the game scenario).
kkona12345 [#14]what,americas is 1 continent??
And still had two finalists in masters 1 and And champions, meanwhile y’all couldn’t get a single team on the top 3 at champs
Pathetic.

You kinda have a point here, if being able to afford stuff mattered so much Germans wouldn’t suck this bad at the game

the right term is "emerging"
brazil isn't underdeveloped
brazil is the third biggest airplanes manufacturer in the world
even some developed countries can't build airplanes, let alone the underdeveloped ones
