Controversial jokes on social media and G2's reputation for playing the villain in the esports they pursue. Valorant having a more "wholesome" audience causes people to dislike their ways unlike other fanbases, like CS, where it's encouraged.

It's crazy how close these predictions were.

I don't get the hate towards the APAC locations. The world isn't just EU and NA. Those guys messed their sleep schedule up for other events, so I don't see why it's so wrong to give that audience some VCT events.
