[jwplayer ZyCTJZ95] Many FPS fans hail Valorant as the new and improved version of CS:GO, with a host of ex-CS:GO pros such as Tyson \u2018TenZ\u2019 Ngo moving across to Riot Games\u2019 shiny new FPS seeking more lucrative professional opportunities. However, other players much prefer the more straightforward gameplay of CS:GO, where there\u2019s no magical abilities making life a misery, and no flashes going off every two seconds. In a recent stream, former CS:GO pro player summit discussed his feelings towards Valorant, noting that in his eyes, CS:GO reigns as the supreme FPS title of the two. Why does summit1g prefer CS:GO? Throughout his stream summit1g says that he finds playing Valorant extremely difficult both due to the gameplay and the effects that it has on him while streaming. When talking gameplay, the FPS wizard describes Valorant as \u201cmaking him miserable\u201d and that being flashed through walls and hacked through tiny spaces make the game difficult for him to enjoy. Additionally he highlights the fact that the game is less rewarding, as finding plays using smokes and flashes in CS:GO is a part of the art form of playing the game, whereas these are in-built aspects of the agent abilities in Valorant. By having overpowered flashes and smokes built into the agents\u2019 kits, he argues that it removes some of the tactical aspects of the gameplay. The final point that he makes is regarding streaming the game. Describing the irritation after \u201cfeeling like a God one day and then feeling like you\u2019ve never played a day in your life,\u201d it\u2019s pretty clear that Valorant is a tilter for summit. Expressing that he doesn\u2019t enjoy the game and therefore fans won\u2019t enjoy watching it, it doesn\u2019t make much sense to keep it as a main feature on his channel. So, it\u2019s a case of watch this space. Maybe summit1g will get his Valorant mojo back, but until then his Sea of Thieves streams are continuing and he seems to be having plenty of fun on it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summit1g explains why Valorant makes him miserable compared to CSGO Riot Games\/Twitch: summit1gThe discussion about Valorant being the new CS:GO has overtaken the gaming scene, with many seeing CS:GO as a dying community.
