maybe, CS competition can be quite brutal and it's quite saturated though, but i'm sure some of the talents in valorant would've gotten picked up by academy teams, making it from there can be extremely brutal. trying to make it as a mix is extremely rough in CS right now too. if you're a great player it would still probably take you 5-6 years of developing in the pro scene before you're in the conversation for tier 1 teams, prodigies like donk or jimpphat took about 3 years still (both were invited to FPL around 15). that being said they probably would be fine in cs if they could keep themselves motivated to grind (for instance, leo/sayf used to play on t3/4 mix teams prior to val)
