Csgo major format?

Seems like it is not well liked by their community: https://twitter.com/thorin/status/1658172643458031616?s=46&t=7o_8zIUrPLPhgJNxYsg6Dw. Do any csgo fans here agree?

It’s much better in CS because bo1s are shit in Valorant. Pistol rounds have too much impact in valorant compared to CS

Swiss format is amazing. It would've been better with only Bo3s, but even currently is miles ahead of whatever garbage formats have been in Valorant for the past 3 years.

The format isn’t the problem. We need player selected seeding rather than seeding done by RMR results. Also people need to stop complaining when “good teams” lose to “bad teams”. It’s just like valorant franchising. Partner teams aren’t exactly always better than non partner teams. People are so deluded by the blast/ESL franchising system, that they are conditioned to believe that any team participating in those events are better than non partner teams.

At Katowice 2019, teams got to create their own seed ranking list. Then, the seedings of the teams were aggregated and averaged out to determine which team got which seed. This fixes problems such as FaZe being the 12th seed in the Legends stage while ITB is 6th.

this actually seems like such as good ranking system, except some bias can possibly come by ppl voting on their country's teams or their friends' teams far too high than deserved

It’s voted by every single team. The bias won’t be enough. And Kato seeding was perfect

in valorant, bo1s are bad bc pistols, less rounds, momentum based. on the other hand, bo5s take too long (a series could easily be 7+ hrs)

It's perfect imo. Only thing I'd change is no BO1s. Only bo3s.

format is good but make it all BO3 please. BO1 promotes flukes. Im sure if we set all matches as BO3, BNE will not lose to apeks
