I started watching CS because of Valorant but to be honest, the ambiance and the crowd support in LAN tournaments for CS is so much better. There's something about CS that excites me whenever I watch a grand finals
You are correct to some extent but I believe the fans and the game itself do not allow for such hype given the level of softness that is currently present in the community
Furthermore, Riot punishing teams and players for t-bagging and such stuff in-game is one of the primary reasons why this game will never attract such large and aggressive crowds
first death threats only happened in CS against NAVI, second we have aspas we would cheer for him anyways and last if we dont have any BR team in playoffs we would cheer for anyone, trust me the RIOT scene here in brazil is very different than CS, in Brazil is a shame that riot never make any international here i guarantee you that in League we would been the best crowd ever because we really love LOL regardless of BR teams, Faker would be more cheered here than in korea.
