He does have a point on the scene being bland in terms of players. Like how many casual players know the names/plays/play styles of pros? I can only think of beaolu’s aim, pengu, fabain, and kantto who else. Games like league, or cs its a more entertaining scene. In cs casuals know so much of the pro scene. They can think of 5-10 pro players, highlights, iconic plays, certain play-styles. Like when you get a sick flick you think of kennys or simple. You jump through a smokes “Im stewie.” Whenever I play r6 I cant think of anything like that, besides beaulo really
