Is this normal? will the tickets ever be sold out?
Yeah ofc its not as simple as I said it, EU have it easy for the trip but you still have to plan out a trip and all this effort for a midseason/qualifying tournament, whilst champions is only a few months away, I thinks its chill tickets haven’t sold out after all its a winners final for a midseason tourney.
i mean it is denmark with no danish teams / players and considering valorant players are considered 2nd class citizens by CS elites (who the danes just wont let go) im honestly not suprised , but boy am i waiting for istanbul , all the matches will have a crowd , i trust the turkish fan base to show their support(i hecking love tukish players some of the highest celing players in the world but also the lowest floors) and cause its bloody istanbul
Dallas didn't fill up not only because it's in NA, but also because it's a mid event which has no meaning for most CS fans + it's very hard for europeans (and not only europeans) to obtain visas for some USA travelling.
Think about it. Valorant this year will have 2 international events with crowds. Similar to 2 CS majors with crowds per year. While CS major collects more than ten thousands of audience, Valorant can't get half of 3k stadium, doesn't matter whether it's in Denmark or not. It's embarrasing.
whether it's in denmark or not
idk where you're drawing this conclusion from when a LAN in Japan had 20k + already but okay. Also Istanbul will blow this event out of the water. I don't understand how you can understand the VISA thing for a CS event in Dallas but not understand it for valorant copenhagen
Valorant as an esport doesn't have its ultras in EMEA of diehard fans, who are ready to pay anything, travel anywhere to watch one of three LAN events in 2022 live. Of course, if an event is close to their home, they might go, but otherwise they won't bother to waste time on such things.
Do you think many people live in Belgium? No. Yet Antwerp had 15k+ audience. That's what you call fans, real fans. Valorant doesn't have such sect, not yet.
there was like no advertising for the LAN and most team's fans barely even know if their team is gonna make it until like a couple of weeks before the event, unless you're an EU fan that already knew about the event and your team is in the top 4 then I doubt you would have bought a ticket. Like fuck I don't even know where you can buy tickets
