is it only me or whenever the desk is about to ask the crowd something I get second hand embarrassment because there is a very high possibility they just get ignored considering how shit every LAN crowd been except tokyo

i never said its to entertain the people at home (even though it kinda is). tf is the point in going to an event to not make any noise and hype.
Could you imagine if the whole crowd at a football match or a concert just sat there like fat fucks and did nothing.
The atmosphere is arguably the biggest aspect of any event, if the crowd is dead the event will be dead too.
If i go to a barcelona game i will cheer, because i like barca. If i went to a paris saint germain game i wouldn't cheer, because im not a paris fan, i would go to enjoy the entertainment that the professionals are paid millions to provide. If they did something to elicit a cheer then i'd cheer, im not really the booing type and don't really understand that or whistling.
Point being that a lot of these fans don't have the emotional attachment that I would have for barcelona. The problem isn't the fan the problem is esports as a whole lacks passion sometimes and it's something that gets better as time goes on in the scene and these organizations can start to form connections to the fans, a lot like loud and sen have way more connection to their fans than say EG does.
fair enough with time yes the crowds can get better but I don't think its esports in general. CSGO crowds are crazy whether its EU or Brazil I haven't seen an NA crowd for CS but I don't think it would be that bad. I follow COD too and those crowds are insane no matter where in NA the event is held but ofc the optic major is a step above.
Point being that its a valorant issue unfortunately and I can understand that the game isn't that old to be compared to other esports yet but on this path, it'll eventually fall behind if something isn't done.
