still salty about the fact that the launch of Valorant was the last nail in the coffin for a very entertaining NA pro scene in CS:GO, i really miss the great personalities we had from that regionโฆ ๐ฅบ
but let's be real, Valve made it way too easy for them to leave :)
no tier 2 support, orgs were bleeding money, players barely scraping by unless you were on Team Liquid or Cloud 9
Riot showed up with guaranteed salaries and actual infrastructure while Valve had their heads in the sand like usual
can't even blame Tarik and the others for taking the bag, they had families to feed and a scene that was already dying
the frustrating part is it really didn't have to be this way ๐ฎโ๐จ
