About CSGO Copium

#1

buldO

I find it really interesting that for a one year old game such as Valorant, some CSGO fans go on hard copium about "CSGO Killer" "Only X Views LUL" and all. I understand the bait and the copium.
But I can't wrap my head around the thought that most of these users haven't figured out the fact that the only reason why Valve released any content for CSGO latelt (speaking of the new Operation) is purely based on the competition between to similar/same genre FPS games.

So if anything, don't be stupid enough to claim that a 1 year old game that's still in the growth was supposed to have killed a 21 year old game that established its name world-wide. You're just playin yourself at that point.

this seems the only argument people have against csgo yet matchmaking is only a tiny part of csgo because any player that wants to play competitive plays esea or faceit.

Bro, it's the eleven operation of history of CS GO, isn't because of Valorant lol.

CS was hit hard by Covid, no Lans tournaments, no Major, this is coming back just now, it had the release of the operation, next month will have the result of the 1m case contest, the major view pass, the return of Lans events with the major itself and Blast Finals, there's a new meta in the game with Nade drop.. Things are getting back to normal, the playbase is growing in the last two months.

There's space for both games thrive together... Valorant may become bigger because when talking about eSports management, RIOT is years light ahead of Valve.

Valve do get esports they just dont care about CS, in fact from a purely financial point of view they probs have the most monetarily sound esport title

I wasnt implying that just because Valorant came out Valve went to work. They were probably on the works already, but starting to hear the community is partly IMO thanks to Riot.

And I do COMPLETELY agree on the take of space for both games. I think that as much as they look alike in terms of gameplay/basic mechanics they are different and unique on their own.

edit: I did say that Valve only released content because of Valorant, mb, to better phrase it I would say, they probably are working more on it and taking a look at the community because of the competition.

totally agree, but it applies to valorant too, like "CSGO IS DEAD KEKW"
csgo is not dying, but cant gain more players but i think they can hold these numbers for a few years
and not valorant is killing it, but valve and covid
and its coming from a val player, playing since 2020 june 1st, but i just hate this "valorant vs csgo war"

I agree, I honestly dislike this Valorant v CSGO war because certainly they both make each other better only by existing. I have thousands of hours racked up in CSGO and loved the game until the very end, seeing the only possible way I could be able to measure myself against "better" players in an upgraded environment was through 3rd site parties such as ESEA; Faceit; ESL tournaments, etc...

I am just tired of the constant nonsense battle between one fan base and the other, as if Naruto fans had to argue which manga is the best of all time, Naruto or One Piece, or this or the other. Each and every other fanbase are gonna support their favorite, I cant see why some people cant live in a world where people share space.

didn't the recent csgo final had more viewers than the gambit envy final? The viewership dropped a lot when sentinels isn't in the final

if someone say a game with nearly 1m concurrent player every day is 'dying' then the person should go to get their IQ checked
