Why is Valorant getting so many fewer viewers? I noticed that League of Legends gets about twice the viewership, and Counter-Strike also gets roughly twice as many viewers as Valorant.

Despite being a more modern version of Counter-Strike and, technically, a better game than League of Legends, why is Valorant struggling to gain viewership?

no dynasty for gloryhunters and bandwagons to gloryhunt safely and get that satisfaction of winning all the time.

League had like at least 4x the viewers back in the day so don't worry i think this is partially bcs they make their games noob friendly/non toxic(so like the competetiveness in my opinion is slightly less), no ads no promos, any event today is 5x more expensive than it was and some of them used to be even free entry. Cs go has a market and dedicated players who stay even when half of the game is cheaters partially thanks to market but also bcs the events are so fun, league and valo are losing a lot and its only really alive in korea and china

+cs has skits and amazing casters analysts trailers teases and everything, league used to have their own identity but it just like valorant turned into a family friendly boring segments like kinda reddit approved stuff everything they do. No real banter, players were getting fined for standing up or talking shit, and the fanbase in general is just not creative. BUT THAT"S ALL MY OPINION

No sentinels, 100T, loud,Fnatics,KC, and other big name orgs.

I still watch all masters and champ no matter what team makes it, but for casual viewers, they probably want KC[french], Fnatic[classic everyone recgonize them], Despict Aspas current team building he famous.
No TENZ but atleast Sentinel team have fans, same as 100T sadly barely makes internationals.

Also the general valorant game right now is kinda stale, ranks are no fun for the casual unless you're reaching for the top ranks.

Also Valorant is still new compared ot Counter Strike and LOL.

For this tourney I guess We got Paperrex, EDG maybe Heretics in terms of farming views. Could argue Fut, vitality and maybe Lev but I dont know much about them in terms of fan base count.

  • A regular mainstay player needs to be present for a long time.
  • Constant meta change meaning less legacy team, viewers never care for newcomers just want regular same old team qualify everytime.
  • Horrible Tier 2 system doesn't help with growing new viewers.
  • Unsuccessful GC scene fail to gain new viewers.
  • Valorant never gets Mongolia and OCE cause CS haven't abandoned them.
  • Console and Mobile valorant don't translate to competitive as compare to fortnite.

To be fair ascension is way better for valo than league or cs its extremely harder to break thru

In valorant any1 can break through, pre sure in other games you have more odds in specific region than others.
For example in CS u pre much have to learn mongolian or mandarin to have any future in CS if you're from asia.

In cs there are rarely new teams or even new players sure there are in tier 2 or 3 but it's harder to make a living and even harder to jump to tier 1 either by getting bought or having to win many many top 20 in the world games
