CS is a adult game. VAL is for kids.

Im not criticizing it. I'm just saying that they are two different strategies

people defending valorant's viewership numbers should know one thing.

1. • In Valorant (RIOT) streaming events are free , anyone can do it (tarik, tenz etc or you in u home)
     In CS(VALVE), you need to pay to streaming the events, and the CS majors you must pay XX.XXX as minimum. For example, tarik need to pay to do a watchparty. Is like TV rights in Sports events. So is more easy for Valorant get high numbers in events with random influencers/streamers.
2. • Chinese viewers in Counter-Strike are very high too, but the numbers never count in data streams websites.
