CS vs VAL crowd

Just to be clear, i am NOT comparing the two games or their communities .......... it's just when i see a CS major the crowd is so freaking huge and the venue is like so energetic and vibrant and most importantly enjoyable af like they are hooting,screaming and loud chanting while VCT also have good crowd but their reaction are so dull like mostly they do is clapping with those rubber fucking what not things and most screams are not even heard most of the time. Why is that ???
And another thing when the camera pans on the fans they are like "awww i am on the camera i am so shyyy ... don't look at me while smiling silly" and there's CS crowd like howling like madman on the camera
Like it's not compulsory that you have to act like a madman but atleast scream be energetic on every round like as we saw recently on KCX4 we want that.
Again i love how supportive both communities are towards their own game i just want the matchs to feel like a football match not a fucking golf match.

P.S. For those who are gonna say CS is a old game so it has more fans than Val .... brother no of people play Val are 10 times more than CS

You can blame riot for that, somehow they are muting crowds' cheering.

I watched dfm's vlog on red bull they are legit cheering "WOOOO YEAAAA" , although it's not to the level of csgo crowds it's still there regardless.

Also they paid for their ticket they get to do whatever they want, they might be cheering energetically behind camera but are just shy.

As someone who was at lock in, the loud ahh music also is annoying asf.
Ofc the people there was shy and etc. But riot fucks up too.

(Plus, Val community is annoying and weak, they cant handle to see people cheering for other teams that aren't their team)

Honestly i support the Brazilians for cheering with their heart out during lock//in other countries should also be like this ...
It just that atleast stay for the award ceremony like that much respect FNC deserved that night ngl

I understand you, I agree that was fucked up, but there was some reasons.

  • Riot staff was kicking us out
  • There was super hot, and Riot didnt allowed you to bring water there, just their water thar was super expensive, for that reasons, some of us was allmost fainting
  • Was too late, most of us taked bus to home, and we allmost lost the time to go home.
  • Most of us wake up 4 or 5 am, people had to work in the other day.
  • Ubers dont work past midnight, bc São paulo has a lot of crime.
  • And, the most silly one, we was heartbroken.

When Loud was 0x2 in maps against FNC, I had to take my friend out, bc she was with low blood pression.
Lock in for sure had one of the best val crowds, but it had the WORST staff and stadium.

Orgs in valorant are allergic to accumulating a brand. This is why whenever KC does an offseason event it goes CRAZY. It's not that CS fans are inherently better, it's just that Val orgs are shit at cultivating passion for whatever they do

True. Best Valorant crowd so far is equal to like some random tier 1 event held in like Copenhagen or something. Only LockIn crowd during Brazilian teams was comparable to good tier 1 CS event crowds. Feel like the cultures are just very different and like you mentioned it almost feels like Korean vs Europe crowd in sense where Korean crowds are usually pretty calm and like you said this "im so shy" and more soft, while CS crowds are like European football crowds with energy and maniacs. But I also think that Riot is not even trying to make the crowd more hype and their crowd mics seem to be set pretty low. Its just sad because it makes every Valorant event feel less hype and smaller.

I don't know why Riot does this but I think the crowd does shout (not on the as per of the cs crowd )
But Riot just suppresses their audio (my opinion)

sometimes they surpress the audience, sometimes they don't even have audience mic that you can't even hear any crowd in replays.
riot can do much for their league event but i wonder how they are so incompetent and inconsistent with val event.

Well a majorly big factor is CS is majorly held in EU whose crowd let's be real are a big W while valo doesn't have always an EU Venue, plus val is younger rn and community does have some snowflakes who get mad over narrate for saying retarded in game plus they supress the crowd noise I think and majorly valo community has girls as well thus that depiction on cam while u all know how CS community is

Huge overinflation in player base (albeit Val is up by 7 mil last time I have seen), but it's not an issue. For me vct events just feel sterile and too cash grabby. Not enough crowd chants, the arena layout is dumb, no drums or banners allowed, I feel like also the players do some cringe shit, like Alfajer standing up when in a like 5-4 scoreline vs sentinels. Also the brands of players are a total joke
