_angelmrm_ [#6]What is this?csgo2?
csgo source 2/ cs2 is confirmed to be happening like weeks from now apparently, there's shit like 128 tick server and an anticheat like faceit, so it's similar to vanguard in a way, and a new matchmaking system, kinda excited for it tbh
RayzerGH [#2]Bro tis will be too good, It will make Riot less lazy, because now they will have a little competition
I mean isn't cs esports getting super high viewership? I would say that Riot does have competition
_angelmrm_ [#13]No waaaaay
It's going to be free?(the game)
isn't the game already free for like a couple of years now?
Shadow_Monarch [#7]CS2 is going to fail, and will bring more players to Valorant. Nothing amazing and unique is coming out of CS2, and lots of players already shifted over to Val.
1.6 was the best btw ;)
Dude, Val is almost dead in europe, CS2 will put the final push to death
And franchising dont help too
_angelmrm_ [#13]No waaaaay

i assume its going to be free i dont see why they would change it since f2p works so well.

val dead in europe lmfao val ranked player base in europe is literally 2.7 mil players lmao keep coping
jimjam789 [#20]wtf will be different in cs2
its not really csgo 2. Its csgo on source 2
its really just a bunch of new features the community has been wanting.
new engine, matchmaking redux, 128 tick servers, etc
Do you know the real reason why League succeeded over Dota and why Valorant will do the same with CS/CSGO? Its because many GIRLS started to become "gamers" and played League, and now FPS which is Val FN OW Apex etc.
Almost majority of just guys used to play Dota/CS back then, but when Females entered the gaming scene, what Guy wouldn't want to game with Girls?
Agree or Big Agree?
Thats the Esports business my friends.
Eag1e [#12]I mean isn't cs esports getting super high viewership? I would say that Riot does have competition
yes but it's mostly europe. Every other region watches valorant more at this point (source: my guesses, but the twitch numbers showed that LOCK//IN had like 2x and at time 4x the amount of viewers ESL Pro League. Still high, but valorant is peak rn)

while IDK how influential or intentional these games marketed towards females, being accessible for an untapped group whose population that makes up 50% of the world is common business sense
meteorite [#19]val dead in europe lmfao val ranked player base in europe is literally 2.7 mil players lmao keep coping
CS is 10x more popular in europe than Valorant
If Val popularity in EU was big no one could beat EU in tournaments

🥱 Riot doesn’t publish player numbers
RayzerGH [#18]Good time to riot improves some basics things in valorant, such as deathmatch, the range, replay (vod review, in the game, or demo), improve the skin shop, because i think this way is prejudicial for people that want old skins like old prime bundle.
Riot will make a new skin bundle each week before adding replays.
sleepingspice [#24]yes but it's mostly europe. Every other region watches valorant more at this point (source: my guesses, but the twitch numbers showed that LOCK//IN had like 2x and at time 4x the amount of viewers ESL Pro League. Still high, but valorant is peak rn)
EPL is a very unpopular tournament bc of the format, a significant portion of people only wait until the playoffs to watch it
Supr3meGucci [#30]🥱 Riot doesn’t publish player numbers
the ranked player base can be found on tracker.gg they use riot api
pugz [#29]CS is 10x more popular in europe than Valorant

league is super popular in eu doesn't mean they could do shit

If you are referring to RL's article in terms of faceit bit, it exclusively has to do with the matchmaking and not the AC. The article doesn't mention anything about improved VAC
meteorite [#25]I have seen some bad reasoning but this... is somthn else
this is right lmao . The general gist is Riot is very good at marketing the game to wide variety of audience. A lot more women play their games as a result. I mean think about it women makes up half the world population. Imagine closing off that entire market. Riot also makes them game easier to get into reaching the casual audience which is the majority.
sleepingspice [#27]while IDK how influential or intentional these games marketed towards females, being accessible for an untapped group whose population that makes up 50% of the world is common business sense
yes this is why riot games are easier to get into for casual audience. They also try to appeal to the chinese mareket cause they're a huge chunk of the world population.

Increased playerbase of Riot games is because they attract almost all of Asian audience. That matters much more.
Supr3meGucci [#32]Ikr
You guys are from India so you wouldn't know since Esports hasnt been big in your country for the past 30 years and until just recently.

Valorant hasn't succeeded over CSGO and never will
laurus [#42]Increased playerbase of Riot games is because they attract almost all of Asian audience. That matters much more.
? there's women in asia too lol. Half the world population is women. They're doing both. Riot games have world wide appeal and they market their games like that. Which is why they will always be more popular than Valve games.
Ullyr [#45]? there's women in asia too lol. Half the world population is women. They're doing both. Riot games have world wide appeal and they market their games like that. Which is why they will always be more popular than Valve games.
Could you link data proving that female playerbase percentage in Riot games is significantly bigger than in Valve games?
laurus [#44]Valorant hasn't succeeded over CSGO and never will
It will in the future. Let's not be ignorant.
laurus [#44]Valorant hasn't succeeded over CSGO and never will
league crushed dota and val will do the same to cs I can't wait

From the article:
Female representation in major esports has been historically small in many other games, including League of Legends. That wasn’t the case with VALORANT. 30 to 40% of VALORANT players are female, according to Archambault. That player base has made it clear that they want a seat at the table when it comes to shaping the VALORANT ecosystem.
this is for valorant. Obviously riot don't release hard numbers but you can clearly see it in in what they try to do with gameschanger and also in valorant games just more girls playing in general.
meteorite [#50]league crushed dota and val will do the same to cs I can't wait
Valorant already hit its peak
Glycoroldas [#38]If you are referring to RL's article in terms of faceit bit, it exclusively has to do with the matchmaking and not the AC. The article doesn't mention anything about improved VAC
smh ppl be lying on my discord I guess
kaesra [#5]probably be like overwatch relevant for 2 weeks and never to be played again
csgo all-time player peak was yesterday btw
hanafuji [#55]smh ppl be lying on my discord I guess
but ngl, you see less cheaters these days
I don't play against a cheater for 1,5 years
Ullyr [#37]
i'm not sure, but is that like 5 million players that went online yesterday right? not simultaneously players?
Kr1zt [#61]If Is a different game the current csgo pros don't gonna change quickly and if it's a super update then it's gonna be just a wave of hype
So anyways I dont think is a huge deal for VAL
its just a new engine port
HLTV_BIGGEST_FAN [#60]i'm not sure, but is that like 5 million players that went online yesterday right? not simultaneously players?
bruh according to this site Valorant had more players than League Of Legends (which i doubt tbh)
soraol [#21]Riot> valve
True but if CSGO2 has good matchmaking and no hackers + 128 tick servers, it's gonna clear valorant sadly
BoDork [#52]People will switch for like a few months and realise they fucked up
i mean they are dogshit in CSGO that's why they switch to Valorant anyway LMAO
why would they go pro in a game that they can't go pro in???
kaesra [#5]probably be like overwatch relevant for 2 weeks and never to be played again
overwatch still fucking alive as hell dude, im fairly high elo and stopped playing, tried playing this week as a DPS and found a match in matter of seconds.. Gotta say kudos to blizzard bcs ow is def more alive than ow1
CarrotaboyQ [#63]bruh according to this site Valorant had more players than League Of Legends (which i doubt tbh)
league had 400k players this month, league has been in a downfall for years
capital_d_colon [#22]its not really csgo 2. Its csgo on source 2
its really just a bunch of new features the community has been wanting.
new engine, matchmaking redux, 128 tick servers, etc
does it change mechanics tho? i dont even care bout csgo mm or shooting, i love SURF and bhopping, hope they dont change it
loloscum [#68]overwatch still fucking alive as hell dude, im fairly high elo and stopped playing, tried playing this week as a DPS and found a match in matter of seconds.. Gotta say kudos to blizzard bcs ow is def more alive than ow1
That’s because they fill you in with people far below and above your rank. I had a masters supp and silver tank on the same team and both were solo queue
DELUSIONAL_SHAHZAM_FAN [#73]That’s because they fill you in with people far below and above your rank. I had a masters supp and silver tank on the same team and both were solo queue
never happened to me tho, sure i played with ppl 1 rank above sometimes but i never got a silver/gold dude in my matches lol
RayzerGH [#2]Bro tis will be too good, It will make Riot less lazy, because now they will have a little competition
"little competition" 💀💀
Valgod [#47]I thought cs degenerates said cs is perfect? But now they want cs 2?
they only say it to cover up the fact Valve does jack shit to improve the game KEKW . When Valve does they change the narrative.
FDWC [#67]i mean they are dogshit in CSGO that's why they switch to Valorant anyway LMAO
why would they go pro in a game that they can't go pro in???
they won't switch back unless Valve support the pro scene. There's no point being in tier 2 or tier 3 in NA, pretty much jobless with no good salary. As for the asian scene there's pretty much no scene other than like mongolia or china lol
Yessirskiiii [#64]True but if CSGO2 has good matchmaking and no hackers + 128 tick servers, it's gonna clear valorant sadly
kekw cope. cs is trash, overrated, boring and will be dead within 2 weeks
FDWC [#67]i mean they are dogshit in CSGO that's why they switch to Valorant anyway LMAO
why would they go pro in a game that they can't go pro in???
LUL hooxi just won katowice, anybody above ascendant can go pro in cs
laurus [#44]Valorant hasn't succeeded over CSGO and never will
only boomers still play/watch cs, once they retire/touch grass, game will be dead in 5 years kekw
Skywarp [#82]only boomers still play/watch cs, once they retire/touch grass, game will be dead in 5 years kekw
Then why does CS keep beating records of active online playerbase already multiple times since the beginning of the year?

And how many women are in CS? Even if 10-20%, it's not a big difference.
Also I would expect some data proving that indeed 30-40% of Valorant playerbase are women, not a random article without anything.
