Dr Disrespect explains why CS:GO should have a $30m tournament, not Fortnite Counter-Strike: Global Offensive should be the game to have $30 million prize pool \u2013 and not the Fortnite Battle Royale players in the world against each other for a slice of an insane prize pool. Just qualifying for the huge tournament guaranteed players $50,000, but winning the solo portion of the event will net one player a life-changing $3 million, with the top four players all becoming millionaires. Considering Fortnite is such a new esport, and battle royale\u2019s RNG (random number generator) factor makes it arguably less competitive, it has drawn plenty of criticism \u2013 especially when compared to long-standing games like CS:GO and Dota 2. During his July 26 stream, Dr Disrespect weighed in on the debate in the most Dr Disrespect fashion possible. After finishing up his lengthy intro, The Doc sat and addressed fans about what was coming in the stream \u2013 before giving his less than supportive opinion on the Fortnite World Cup. After labeling the pro-am competitors as nobody he had ever heard of, the streamer continued on. \u201cPhony, fake belief, manufactured popularity \u2013 all that shit makes me sick to my stomach,\u201d he stated. \u201cImagine Counter-Strike putting on a $30 million dollar tournament. Now you\u2019re talking real, now you\u2019re talking stakes \u2013 now you\u2019re talking entertainment. Now you\u2019re talking true, pro gaming at its finest.\u201d Of course, the Two-Time has never been one to keep his opinion to himself, and even took his criticism of the World Cup to Twitter. After fellow streamer Jack \u2018Courage\u2019 Dunlop tweeted out a photo of himself at the event, Dr Disrespect turned his attention to the attendance of viewers \u2013 stating it was smaller than an eighth-grade basketball game. I’ve seen more people in the stands at an 8th grade basketball tournament. https:\/\/t.co\/4FV6UQryDs \u2014 Dr Disrespect (@drdisrespect) July 26, 2019 While he didn\u2019t reference Counter-Strike any further, The Doc clearly feels that the near two-decade-old esport title deserves a bit more than Fortnite. Valve\u2019s other major competitive game, Dota 2, knocked the World Cup off its prize pool perch as fans raised over $30 million. Yet, that hasn\u2019t quite caught the attention of Fortnite considering the MOBA is an established competitive scene and the battle royale has taken the gaming world by storm since its 2017 release.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
