xQc explains why it\u2019s \u201cimpossible\u201d for him to get a Counter-Strike team Twitch: xQcFelix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel says that he is not thinking about signing a Counter-Strike team, stating that it is an esport that is \u201cimpossible\u201d to get into. The streaming star revealed on September 5 that he is once again thinking about signing a Valorant roster following the sudden availability of the former The Guard team, which holds a spot in the VCT Americas League for the next two years. xQc was immediately questioned by his viewers about the possibility of getting a Counter-Strike team. There is no shortage of hype surrounding Valve\u2019s iconic FPS amid the imminent release of Counter-Strike 2, which is attracting a wave of new players and esports organizations. However, xQc has no plans to sign a Counter-Strike team, at least not right now. After admitting that he finds Counter-Strike\u2019s esports circuit harder to follow than Valorant\u2019s, he noted that entering the game would require a massive investment on his part. \u201cThe circuit is mega-saturated,\u201d he said. \u201cGetting a team is literally impossible. You have buyouts that are incredibly overvalued. It\u2019s impossible to get into. \u201cIt\u2019s overvalued, 100 percent. Esports is already not profitable. On top of it being a money dump, [Counter-Strike] is overvalued. It\u2019s the worst combo ever.\u201d Despite xQc being one of the highest-profile streamers in the world, with a reported $100 million streaming deal with Kick, not everyone seems to be excited about his potential entry into Valorant esports. On social media and Reddit, many have brought up his botched attempt to sign Turtle Troop, a tier-two Valorant team, earlier this year in response to his interest in The Guard\u2019s roster. KEG, a Valorant content creator and esports commentator, has even released a video titled \u201cXQC SHOULD NOT Own A Valorant Team\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
