Why is the val esports crowd so dead and boring compared to the cs crowd

for example take both grandfinals that happened last sunday the crowd is way bigger and imo better then the valo one but why is that?

riot's main audience is asia, due to the existing infrastructure of league. they will never have the foothold valve has in the west with cs, except maybe in na because the scene is dead

nah league is the football of esports, slower pace but when things get going its super hype
CS is more like basketball, faster pace and more eventful

I’m not really talking about the style of play, more the audience and their reactions and how many fans there are..

I do agree with you tho about what you said

cs is more established and has a more deep rooted fanbase
crowd culture takes time to grow and valorant is only 5 years old

You can't really compare the two as one is hosted in a center that hosts 8000-15000 and one is like 4000 max. as someone who was at toronto as well there were like maybe 1500 seats 2k max. The energy was still great.
