Why are people complaining about more Valorant. I feel there is too less valorant internationally compared to like CS. PGL is going on and IEM dallas is from tomorrow with the Major in like 2 weeks. Why not have more international events?

People don't want Saudi sponsoring the event. Personally I don't mind but a decent amount of people have problems with it

There's about 100 obvious reasons why someone would decide not to watch EWC.
If those reasons aren't valid reasons for someone, then they're always free to watch it.
To each their own

because the average valorant viewer is racist toward arabs
They have no problem with events in Shanghai but when its in Riyadh, they suddenly care about human right

cs games are more because cs is a lot less complex
cs doesnt have agent comps cs has less anti strating cs has less changes
cs meta stays stable whereas valorant is always changhing
if valorant has a schedule like cs then the overall level of play will be worse
this is why we cant have a cs like schedule of the season

I agree, but there is a middle term that we are not even close to getting to

While I understand that Valorant can be tiring to play for many days in a row, specially for coaches and IGL (they will barely get sleep getting a plan ready for next match), I feel like players have lost perspective.

In the end, they are getting payed (ranging from a decent amount to a lot) to play games. 6-10 years ago, gamers were paid a lot less and most had to work "real" jobs at some point so they would value gaming more, but now kids start earning cash pretty early (16~, already getting monthly 6k dollars at 18).

And it changes from player to player/team to team, like Fr0d on the MIBR blog, after losing the third place match to G2 (if they won they would qualify for EWC), he said that he was sorry, because he knew what that meant for the players (Its a lot of money for Brazilians and newcomers specially like Xenon, Cortezia and Artzin), so they (MIBR) want to qualify, while some teams (Fnatic comes to mind, G2 maybe) would rather not qualify.

in short how would you feel if any political party would host an international Valorant Tournament to hide for example a corruption scandal or similar. Now amplify that feeling by 10 because the political party actively murders, enslaves, dehumanize fellow human beings.

Thats (at least how I think) most people feel about the Saudi Government Sportswashing the shit out of every sport to brush over these bad deeds.
