GetsystheGr8 [#5]Ludwig and Pokimane got spots... lmfao what a joke... they don't even play the game... can't believe Asuna got denied but they get to co stream when they so shit at the gane
Poki play a lot offstream, Ludwig is a joke
valulrantefanboy [#6]Poki play a lot offstream, Ludwig is a joke
But she's poop at the game and provides no commentary cuz she has no idea what the strats are or anything
GetsystheGr8 [#7]But she's poop at the game and provides no commentary cuz she has no idea what the strats are or anything
Yeah, I know, but you said She doesn't play the game. I agree that she is not good co-streamng
valulrantefanboy [#6]Poki play a lot offstream, Ludwig is a joke
Ik Ludwig is good friends with Wardell... too bad TSM is deciding to qualify for Berlin instead of IceLANd
hekzy [#13]lmao riot with the watch party army. they are making a joke out of this esport. Pokimane and ludwig. SMH
Next they will let Jake Paul and KSI. Fucking cringe
I agree, hope they won't continue this in next events. We want organic viewership , not inflated co-streams
GetsystheGr8 [#7]But she's poop at the game and provides no commentary cuz she has no idea what the strats are or anything
as if shroud provide any commentary anyway.
If you want commentary just go watch main stream.
It is just entertainment end of the day, who cares if she's poop at the game?
valulrantefanboy [#15]I agree, hope they won't continue this in next events. We want organic viewership , not inflated co-streams
if you are relying on organic viewership, the view count will be a joke (half of what co-stream total is)
Just see the difference when Shroud co-stream vs him not co-streaming.
Then we will just be laughing stock because the 'biggest event' viewership will be literally worse than some random game like Navi vs G2 in CSGO

i dont believe so, i think that we could hit 200k easily, NA first strike final was like 100k or more
Youngztar [#19]i dont believe so, i think that we could hit 200k easily, NA first strike final was like 100k or more
Yeah, Brazil vs Sentinels will get like 250k-300k peak without co-screams. That's good enough for new Esport
TinglyPiano [#17]as if shroud provide any commentary anyway.

i agree shroud co stream doesent provide a lot .i watched a lot of co-streams and in my opinion the flom,tarik(recently started watching pro-valorant),slasher and dicey was the best one when it come to strats analyzing.
GetsystheGr8 [#5]Ludwig and Pokimane got spots... lmfao what a joke... they don't even play the game... can't believe Asuna got denied but they get to co stream when they so shit at the gane
Poki plays a decent amount and promotes the game in a big way to a massive audience
GetsystheGr8 [#5]Ludwig and Pokimane got spots... lmfao what a joke... they don't even play the game... can't believe Asuna got denied but they get to co stream when they so shit at the gane
ludwig and poki(offline tv) bring a new community to the game but in my opinion a better way to attract this community to valorant is by hosting a twitch rivals + offline tv tournament

It's about integrity. All these twitch streamers joining in on the broadcasts is more like these stupid boxing events with Jake Paul. Making a mockery of boxing etc.
FilthyAnimal [#9]Ik Ludwig is good friends with Wardell... too bad TSM is deciding to qualify for Berlin instead of IceLANd
Hey Ludwig can still co-stream Berlin when TSM makes it
#TSMCOMEBACK
hekzy [#26]It's about integrity. All these twitch streamers joining in on the broadcasts is more like these stupid boxing events with Jake Paul. Making a mockery of boxing etc.
boxing is fucking stupid anyway. Literally getting to choose to fight who you wanna fight, biased referees to create drama and 'rematches' for bigger paydays etc. Boxing already made a mockery with itself ages ago.
Esports is about everyone get to have a chance, your average joe can go to solo queue and get good enough and can fight against pros. Boxing is a closed exclusive club that is outdated and should have died ages ago
number_1_bjor_fan [#24]i don't mind who they chose. It will bring casual viewers to valorant which is always good and it will boost the numbers which can help with marketing and sponsorships
+1 gaules made it on csgo (and it works), it just a logical choice from riot
FilthyAnimal [#9]Ik Ludwig is good friends with Wardell... too bad TSM is deciding to qualify for Berlin instead of IceLANd
berLAN
valulrantefanboy [#20]Yeah, Brazil vs Sentinels will get like 250k-300k peak without co-screams. That's good enough for new Esport
also, who tf cares if CS has more viewers than val? I've yet to have one single person tell me why it matters.
valulrantefanboy [#8]Yeah, I know, but you said She doesn't play the game. I agree that she is not good co-streamng
one more reason to watch the Platchat costream
Edit: also Pokimane and Lud aren't bad bc they bring in casual viewers to the scene which is good.

u clearly don't watch any games

Alright then, since you think boxing is so deprived, show me any other sport that has such tomfoolery and doesn't respect its nature. Any esport either.
wanted [#30]dicey commentary >>>
BUT NOT WATCH PARTY HOST?
He will most likely join pokimanes stream, so you can hear him there.
ideekae [#43]man i wish the plat chat guys werent under such strict contracts with OWL, they could do some good ass casting and analysis for valorant
We are also thrilled to announce that
@HitscanYT and @PlatChatPodcast
will be our featured #VALORANTMasters Watch Party hosts on YouTube!

Motobe [#47]Rather then having Pro players that actually play the game co-stream, we're having gold digging h*** like poki and ludiwig I can't stand these 2
Hiko, Fl0m, JasonR, Steel, wardell all of them are huge val streamers, and instead we have to watch with ludaiwid
anothervlruser [#39]u clearly don't watch any games
actually I watch all, that's why I noticed the numbers
hekzy [#42]Alright then, since you think boxing is so deprived, show me any other sport that has such tomfoolery and doesn't respect its nature. Any esport either.
UFC with clown show to hype things up? NBA all star games with celebrity judge? Super Bowl with clown fiesta in half time? Even football clubs like Arsenal are doing twitch 'watch party' nowadays.
you just think those are not foolery because those 'tradition' has been happening for years
Motobe [#48]Hiko, Fl0m, JasonR, Steel, wardell all of them are huge val streamers, and instead we have to watch with ludaiwid
I mean .. I love him but when Wardell is watching something. He is literally just eating lmao
valulrantefanboy [#4]Lmao, Ludwig pepega farm viewership and subscribers again. He doesn't play the game that much. Even Pokimane is still more suitable than Ludwig, she play the game so much off-stream and get Diamond rank
that is the genius of it. they ar bringing in viewers that normally wouldn't give a shit about valorant esports. If you are watching wardell stream, chance is you will be watching the IceLAN with or without Wardell co-stream. Different for Ludwig/Poki viewers.
That's how u grow a esports audience scene and getting a bigger a more diversed audience.

No I mean like see them do official casts for the actual tournament. Costreams are cool, but it’s a more laid back environment with a smaller audience. They have main stage talent.
PG_newt [#37]i agree w/ myth, shroud, and averagejonas... but pokimane? ludwig? those mfs dont even play...
Ludwig and pokimane actually love the game and play it a lot, but not all the time like myth
TinglyPiano [#51]UFC with clown show to hype things up? NBA all star games with celebrity judge? Super Bowl with clown fiesta in half time? Even football clubs like Arsenal are doing twitch 'watch party' nowadays.
you just think those are not foolery because those 'tradition' has been happening for years
the watch party is just a side thing they let ArsenalFC do for their own channel. If you think the twitch watch party is raking in more views than the television match, you're deluded, it's not even 1% of the total viewership, otherwise they wouldn't allow it.
UFC clown show? They just have a comedy match up to warm things, most people don't even watch that. If you think people tune in to watch the WWE guy fight some celeb you're deluded again. Nobody watches that shit, it's not 50% of the viewers, not even 0.1% of the payperviews that came in for that.
NBA all star games is not the same thing. It's a showmatch, they don't put e-celebs playing, it's a friendly game that you see for fun.
You're god damn deluded if you think any of these is more than a side gig nobody cares about.
In constrast, watch parties in valorant are more than 70% of the viewership. Isn't it pathetic that an "esports" scene is dependant on Pokimane? Circus.
PG_newt [#37]i agree w/ myth, shroud, and averagejonas... but pokimane? ludwig? those mfs dont even play...
Myth is a joke as well imo
swaglord69 [#31]WE WANT KYEDAEEEEE
No we fucking dont, she's too biased and earrapes every 5 seconds
My take is that choosing popular streamers isn't necessarily a bad thing. While I def understand the sentiment that it's more enjoyable for people who are larger fans of comp val to watch pros and casters who are more familiar with the game, choosing people who will help expose the competitive side of val to more people is just the smarter way to grow a community imo.
Daniveus [#59]this is honestly a fucking joke, there are people wayyyyyyy more deserving to get the spots, most of them don't even play the game for real, and none of them will provide decent commentary. They literally chose them because they are popular and only in NA, greedy moves just like cs...
it's not about a decent commentary, the official stream will provide the most decent commentary it's about expolring a new communities and intoducing them to the game
streamratings [#35]also, who tf cares if CS has more viewers than val? I've yet to have one single person tell me why it matters.
viewers bring in sponsors, sponsors bring in money, money brings in talent.
wanted [#30]dicey commentary >>>
BUT NOT WATCH PARTY HOST?
Yeah, sounds like he's joining Poki. Or at least the odds are high.
Motobe [#48]Hiko, Fl0m, JasonR, Steel, wardell all of them are huge val streamers, and instead we have to watch with ludaiwid
You don't have to watch him, He's obviously not for you. And he wasn't picked for people like you to watch. But to act like there is no one for you to watch to get the pro streamer vibe is dishonest. You have Myth, you have Shroud, you will most likely have Dicey on Poki's stream, you have the Plat Chat guys on Youtube, and Average Jonas. All these might not be your pick, but one at least should. This is an esports less than a year old, Riot trying to grow the esports with people who might not normally watch, and get as many people to have a stream to their liking.
I love that odds are just because of how rank spread works , most of the people complaining about Poki, are probably a lower rank than her at Diamond.
HaSanity [#49]tarik fl0m boys rip
They could always join someone elses stream. No clue who they are friends with. But these are just the hosts.
Lelindre [#61]No we fucking dont, she's too biased and earrapes every 5 seconds
...ofc she's biased r u dumb? Ofc Myth would want TSM to win if they were there. They aren't casting. They are people. They have opinions because of business/friends/regions. Wtf you talking about
BEbow [#36]one more reason to watch the Platchat costream
Edit: also Pokimane and Lud aren't bad bc they bring in casual viewers to the scene which is good.
I agree with this statement
The Plat Chat VALORANT podcast and costreams are so good
They are:
- enjoyable
- learnable
- they have funny personalities
- overall just great
Really underrated and don't know why they get so much shit

the only reason why there's no 'watch party' for those traditional esports is because TV stations pay millions/billions of exclusive right to show the match. That's how sports make majority of their money. Esports it is free to watch, so it is completely different.
If you think is circus, watching 5 ppl playing video games alone is circus enough. Stop with your elitist bullshit, thinking you have to be sweaty radiant grind 15h a day to have the 'right' to enjoy and get involved in the esports scene.
Sansaa [#21]i agree shroud co stream doesent provide a lot .i watched a lot of co-streams and in my opinion the flom,tarik(recently started watching pro-valorant),slasher and dicey was the best one when it come to strats analyzing.
dicey will be on poki's stream if u want to watch that
Sansaa [#63]it's not about a decent commentary, the official stream will provide the most decent commentary it's about expolring a new communities and intoducing them to the game
I know that but I would prefer if they let the people who actually play the game host the event, imagine if u are super invested in the tourney like some pros, and then u lose a spot to stream it to some people who don't even care that much about the game just because they have more following, I think this should be a time to unite the community, make some great content, enjoy the show, just a wholesome moment for everyone but riot values the popularity of the streamer more than their own player base, reminds me a lot about valve's management (the community and the players comes last, spreading the game and getting some bucks comes first)
