CSGO VS DOTA 2
16 hours ago, bluefire908 said:im talking more about the competitive scene and not the genre,like which game is better in terms of paying the players and which game has a more stable competitive scene,fro example dota 2 only had ti as a big tourney and if u didnt do well in ti ur career was over,but csgo has lots of tourneys and so teams can participate in tourneys year round instead of preparing for 1 game a year then not winning it.
If you think tournaments, they are about even. CSGO is only game from the big ones that doesn't have one big major/grand tournament for which team gains points through out whole year. Thats actually bad thing. While it might have become bit too big thing for some Dota2 players/teams, its quite stabilizing factor. In CS team only needs to be together for few months or half year, enough to attend 3-4 majors and then they can disband. Valve requires Dota2 teams to be together almost whole year, or have 1-2 player switches to qualify as participant.
But thats only at highest level. Which new player won't reach easy, or in year or two. At lower and entry levels I still feel like CS is better. It has been the LAN game for ages and supports smaller teams. Its common to have 2v2 or 3v3 tournaments in local events. Those are good place to show off your actual skills, and gain something to show for orgs or bigger teams when applying. At mid level they are about same. Both have online/offline tournaments with even prize money involved.
In core and player base is bit different. There's where genre becomes bit important. Like said previously, Dota2 and other mobas are very popular in Asia. In there professional gaming is easier to take as job. CS is bigger in EU and America. While its hard to take it as profession, you can rise to lower part of top end pretty fast with LAN achievements.
