you know the point still makes sense right
most val pros played cs and they couldnt become cs pros so they jumped into val
if u ask every val pro if they would be cs pros if they could most pros would say yes lol
games are similar enough to say a pro in val is a failed cs pro.
the ceiling of a pro in a game is similar to his ceiling in another game. so when you see val pros being smoked by cs t2 pros you can imagine they wouldnt go too far in cs and thats precisely why they're in val
just an example from another genre i just thought about, rich, the best heroes of the storm player, became a pro in league of legends after hots died. he was literally a god in hots, however, in league, despite his stint on t1, he never lived up to the expectations
say what you want, however, these eu cs pros are quite literally the best at playing tac fps because of their genetics or whatever. if you believe otherwise, you're coping. s1mple, donk, zywoo, they'd all dominate valorant, just like they'd all dominate crossfire, just like they'd all dominate zula... sudden attack... any tacfps based on cs
however, i think i know why val frogs cope that much. it must be sad for your hobby to be a thing that people do because they were washed in cs. imagine wasting hours, days of your life, in a game most pros hate and they would rather play its parent but they cant.. so fucking sad
just like magnus carlsen would dominate on checkers. theres genetics in play
bro if you really think all this get off of VLR lmfao
1st off, movement, gunplay, util is all opinionated. i prefer valorant in every one of those.
but there's this thing that isn't opinionated called travel. the amount of travel that you have to do as a CS pro is crazy
not everyone wants to be constantly traveling between places.
nitr0 chose tier 2 val over tier 1 CS so he didn't have to travel and could be with his family
you do you do
youre prob low rank so ur opinion doesnt count
also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xyKtg3fygM 💀 not even tenz prefers val
also nitro is an exception and he was bad in cs by then
I mean part of it IS true. Given how val has treated it's star players like Yay, Deamon1, Pancada, etc, CSGO star players are much more stable. That's because of no. franchise system and number of TOs. They have oil money and gambling money keeping the game alive. IDK how sustainable val pro scene really is. Sponsor restrictions, minimum salary, minimum contract lengths when the game publisher itself don't know how to plan the season.
It was true when the game came out first. Not so much now. It is backed by the fact that earliest winning teams in valorant were almost all filled with CS pros. Valorant is also thriving in NA meanwhile their CS scene is almost dead. Almost every wannabe CS pro has shifted and done better internationally in val.
