When Optic gets an early pick or something they'll literally shout "Nice!"
When Xerxia are doing well, they just dully relay the information to viewers, but when Optic do well they're hyped up and their whole demeanor and tone is different.

Heiro [#2]with due respect, it lowkey makes sense since NA is the bigger region and they want to please the fans or some shit like that
plus optic are the obvious favourites to win the game so its a given theyd be more positive towards them
Of course, if you go watch any other regional stream they're all bias to some degree as well. But this is the official Valorant channel, speaking the most internationally accepted language, with castors brought from different regions to cast on this stream, with the 'analysis desk', etc. so they're, at least in my opinion, supposed to be the most neutral and unbiased casting for viewers who may be watching from all corners of the globe.

Carthage_Er_Pola [#5]yeah its really annoying. Especially when casters use words like thank god or i was scared

100TBoeJiden [#8]all DougFPS ever says is "yeah" in agreement of balla so not sure it matters.
doug literally shouted nice! when yay got a pick top mid at the start of a round with a marshal
Vortexy [#10]doug literally shouted nice! when yay got a pick top mid at the start of a round with a marshal
Bro u act like apac casters arent biased either LOL
DELUSIONAL_SCOURGE_FAN [#9]U do know there are different streams
yes ik. that doesn't change the fact though that the main channel is exhibiting tons of bias
Easy_for_MWZERA [#11]Isn't that the NA stream? Just watch the APAC stream...
no it's the main Valorant stream for anyone watching the event. like there's no EU stream, there are streams targeted for different countries/regions but this one is the main one with the analyst desk, etc.

yeah you may be right, i just siad what i thought was the reason they were being bias, i wasnt trying to justify them actually being biased towards optic

Well... We have a BR stream with hosts and analysts as well... just saying

We're glad you're here

I mean, all the language streams have their castors and analyzers of the gameplay, but this is the official Valorant stream, speaking the most internationally accepted language, with castors brought from different regions to cast on this stream, with the 'analysis desk' at the actual event, etc. They should be the least bias and neutral option for casual viewers to enjoy.

i dont believe NA is the bigger region. look how many countries fought for the APAC spot. its unreal
hiei [#47]i dont believe NA is the bigger region. look how many countries fought for the APAC spot. its unreal
i think he meant they are a lot more popular
CRAZY_CHAINSAW_MAN_FAN [#48]was the same on the drx vs zeta game, they were non-stop sucking drx and making fun of zeta. They played bad but it just got so annoying after a while
This. Even as a drx fan it was annoying.
syupr [#49]i honestly think the casters were dying inside a little watching their region getting clapped like that by literally the smallest region APAC LOL
Apac not exactly small, but yeah.
queueK [#41]"upset" OMEGALUL
yeah fr man, everyone expected xerxia to win this except delusional na kid, it would've been an upset if optic won that series

youre right, casters dont respect other regions, is just NA and EMEA. Its so annoying to see that, and is in every stream. They are not professionals. If u could see brazilians casters, they always treat all regions equally, and thats so nice... They respect everyone. And ppl need to stop saying that 'NA is better" bcause since last year they lost to asian regions... That makes me so pist man... the disrespect. Youre so right.

I don't get this take. TBH 99% of broadcast talent in Iceland is from EMEA or NA and both always make little comments or remarks about how they want their favorite team or region to win. It's kind of inevitable but if you rly don't like it just watch co streams tbh their better even if you don't mind the commentators bc it just adds to the experience imo
harriman [#62]flair
ever region has their fair share of braindead people. u are one of them. so all good
CrimsonPride [#63]ever region has their fair share of braindead people. u are one of them. so all good
You are a TSM fan so I'm afraid its the opposite
harriman [#65]You are a TSM fan so I'm afraid its the opposite
supporting a team = being braindead? ah i guess i was actually right. u don't have a single digit braincell in u to think properly. all good tho
CrimsonPride [#66]supporting a team = being braindead? ah i guess i was actually right. u don't have a single digit braincell in u to think properly. all good tho
correct supporting TSM requires you to be braindead
harriman [#67]correct supporting TSM requires you to be braindead
lmfao. yea u are a retard alright. not even 1 braincell. who doesn't know what he's talking about

cap vlr users are mostly respectful and ur just annoying + ratio + leave vlr + get friends
idkmate99 [#64]Stop the presses, English casters hope the best for English teams.
If only there were non-English caster, hmmmmm
Oh wait, there are you fucking moron
ultra common idkmate99 L
go read #6 why even if the main stream is in English it shouldn't be bias

Casters and analysts do say things like that for laughs and giggles, expressing their desire for their region's team to win before the match and during breaks and stuff like that. But not when the game is actually going on. These casters were literally shouting words of encouragement to Optic after they would get a pick, being hype and loud when they were doing well, and dull and quite and almost emotionless when Xerxia were pulling ahead.
syupr [#49]i honestly think the casters were dying inside a little watching their region getting clapped like that by literally the smallest region APAC LOL
smallest? you mean 2nd biggest?

It is not all true, they hype Brazil too in the games, but the matches from the other regions are equal.
momo5630 [#50]i think he meant they are a lot more popular
Valorant is more popular in APAC, especially in Japan.
_necromancer_ [#78]Bro who cares about casters, we show them results, we don't want casters jinx bro, btw na is so overrated ngl
NA is overrated because of this casters' copium
durum [#3]L casters, just stream the game and move on, we dont care about your opinion get another job
L take, I'd rather have emotive & personable castors with opinions and insight than mindless robots just casting for they pay check

Who are you?
They're casters who cast for a region. A big part of their purpose is to build hype. They're not analysts who need to focus on facts and ignore bias.
NG1nS [#70]to do their fucking job
if you don't know what a rhetorical question there is no hope for you
idkmate99 [#81]Who are you?
They're casters who cast for a region. A big part of their purpose is to build hype. They're not analysts who need to focus on facts and ignore bias.
Wrong. They're not casters for "a" region. There are casters brought over from different continents. Since you obviously didn't read what I wrote earlier I'll say it here.
If you go watch any other regional stream they're all bias to some degree as well. But this is the official Valorant channel, speaking the most internationally accepted language, with castors brought from different regions to cast on this stream, with the 'analysis desk' at the actual event, etc. so they're supposed to be the most neutral and unbiased casting for viewers who may be watching from all corners of the globe.

That's what I thought, they are basically from NA or EMEA, regions that don't actualle have a separate stream...
