A question
Do you think vlr.gg copies hltv?
I mean the layout of HLTV is very well known and is easy to navigate, now i will say vlr.gg and thespike.gg etc. made it harder to navigate/use, which does confuse/annoy me slightly.
HLTV has weekly updated player stats with cluth king of the week and small details like that. Such as trophies won and a graph of a teams rank throughout the years, it also displays pictures of the players, (bigger pictures than the miniature vlr.gg pictures) and there's also a graph of how much time each player have spent on different rosters and for how long. It's the small details that make HLTV the best forum for esports, and honestly it's more intuitive than reddit aswell. (imo)
I do in fact think that vlr.gg is gonna develop into a more useable site in the near future Enigma (the active site dev) even posts on threads every now and then + HLTV looked like crap when it first launched, and it didn't even have a renking system before 2015. Vlr.gg had a ranking system within mere days/weeks of launching.
