VALORANT Betting

[panganib999]

I, too, played Valorant and compared with CSGO, well the graphics and skills are to be compared, what I really can think of its highly competitive  is APEX LEGENDS.but the thing is Valorant is way more addictive than APEX and so many wants to play and so does with bets.
So it really goes off the line when it comes to gameplays and other as such.

I hate Valorant for being too cartoonish and it seems that developers have done it just for money. And yeah, it's not so popular as CSGO and Fortnite, so betting will be a little harder (less choices for that) and of course less available (less books have Valorant at their services).

The gameplay is a matter of preference but the cartoonish design was intended to avoid being too realistic compared to CSGO's play style. Though most of the movements and skills are the same in CSGO, there is still a learning curve that you need to master in terms of the agents respective abilities.

Betting in valorant is growing and more players from CSGO are shifting towards this new game. As someone who played CSGO for more than 5 years, the fresh game style that Valorant offered definitely tickled my interest.

But just why APEX didn't  have this kind of exposure on Gambling? I mean, you know it has almost the same Gameplay and almost the same tasks in game... Or is it just Valorant is eco and user friendly? Easy to play and understand?

We all know that Valorant is one of the most epic and played game today. Valorant is a fps shooting game that resemble to the game Counter Strike. The only difference is that the champions or characters have thei own unique skills and profession. Personally, I am hooked in this game because of the quite enjoying vibes of it. And as well as the Valorant, I am also aware of the game APEX Legends. I also played this game with my counsins and friends and jsut like you I also want to ask why isn't that no kind of gambling games or tournament about it. Unlike the games like Dota 2, League of Legends, Valorant, and etc. I guess I will more likely to bet to play in APEX Legends because I find it so enjoying to play actually.

Hmm, I think Apex Legends should be categorized under the games like PUBG and Fortnite as such games are what you call battle-royale games. Unlike those games, Valorant offers a relatively-easier game style due to its face-paced combat. In addition, the gameplay is your typical first-person shooter game that follows a round-to-round basis (very similar to CSGO). Lastly, the player count per round is definitely lower compared to APEX, PUBG, and Fortnite where only two teams with 5 player each team participate.

I believe that the interest of Valorant comes from its roots on where such gameplay is inspired- which is CSGO (king of FPS).

Yeah, that's  quite interesting, especially if we know that we also have a growing community on APEX LEGENDS, and a bit lively compared to other fps games.  I wonder why, or is it has somethin to do with the game provider itself? Maybe they don't  want to be part of a Gambling Community

...CSGO (king of FPS).

I think, it is only CS... 😂

There's a lot of First person shooter now, before it was counter strike now it's valorant I tried to check out the gameplay of it and it's a combination of skills and shooting games nowadays have a great features wonder if I could play it it's pretty popular I've seen some bookmakers adding this game on their line up.

I remember the good old days when playing counterstrike with my friends, even though it is already forgotten by many gamers it will still be the legendary one and the basis of creating a game like crossfire and this valorant, even though I am not a player of this kind of game, I know that there are so many people who are playing this thing, one thing that makes this game special is that the player has the special skills which can be used to take advantage to the game.

It is somehow the same with the mechanics of Counter-Strike, you just need to win if you are an attacker or a defender, attacker means you need to plant the bomb and avoid the defenders to defuse it. Defender means you need to protect the plant sites and avoid the attackers to plant the bomb. By either team, if your team wiped out, you lose the round.

Going back, Valorant just have a good tweak, the players have special abilities which makes the game complex for a first-person shooting game, it also becomes more interesting to bet as the winning team will not just depend on the skills but on the mind and execution of the skills of the characters. By the way, I'm Gold 2 in Valorant, I really enjoy playing this game and I would like to bet for a match sometimes.

The main problem is the Specifications of the Game ,so High that a Computer must be Gaming Set up before we can play this better.

Here in my country you can bet bitcoin by playing counter strike you just need to open the tournament and then you can place bets you even you can play with them all you just need to do is to pay the entrance fee, and the prices are bitcoin too or even direct cash it was your choice we never forget on how to play counter strike because this was my favorite game and that game open my mind. Crossfire, Special Force , COD is all similarities you just need to win the game. I hope someday we can play together thou and win amazing price.

Which site was that mate? in which country? only for your country or can be for others?

Looks like interesting because i Use to be a Good Counter strike player ,I have won some tournament back in the past when this was very active and popular

Crossfire as well .because this Valorant makes me Harder to learn ,Maybe because of Age variation lol.

It still just the same, almost like the other first-person shooting games such as Crossfire, SF, CSGO, but Valorant just added a tweak which is to provide the characters with abilities. The abilities are what makes it harder and complex since every character should be first learned to make sure that their abilities will be utilized efficiently. It is not just a game of shooting but with good strategies and teamwork, and I can see that Valorant will be good for betting as the chance of winning will not just depend on how good a player's aim is, but with his familiarity with his character.

[boltz]

I would've added Valorant into esports betting after a more of couple of maps but hey, the eports industry is booming so no wonder why we see new games every months. Don't get me wrong, I played Valorant and I do watch some games from time to time but they game lacks new maps so we could see more diversify strategies from teams.

Exactly, strategies make someone a better player along with their playing skills and players need to keep learning new strategies if they want to stay as a better players but in the old age games which got lesser priority due to less reality gaming experience. Oldies we don't like to play with VR characters, we just love to play with money in real life which is more exciting, to be honest.

For me, CF and SF are the same type of FPS while CS:GO and Valorant are almost the same type. Why? CF and SF have almost the same physics of the game, just shoot and kill, nothing complex on that. Valorant and CS:GO are almost the same because of the physics, some CS:GO pros already have an advantage of it because of the same physics but different damage and such. The thing that makes Valorant complex is the skills so it's very inappropriate to compare those other FPS to Valorant.

I'm playing Valorant since day one, you can almost play as CS:GO (the only game you can compare to valo), valorant are very complex because you need a good team composition that will support, def and frag. So the right answer into this is choose a better win with coordination and communication, that'll be the winner.

I was looking for betting sites for Valorant and I found the same answer as you did, GGBET is the winner.

Do you guys think that Valorant will be the biggest esports we've got? I think there's a big chance cause it's such a hype in Japan etc. Riot knows what they're doing.

Valorant is just a rip off of Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm with its power mechanics and CS:GO FPS, I don't think that it will be as big as an eSport but it will definitely going to gain some following. And I also feel like fans are getting tired of the same kind of games, there needs to be some changes.

[Mauser]

It's been almost one year since the initial valorant hype. I remember how promising the new game looked because it was so much more beginner friendly than the thee shooters. Almost all the big twitch streamers played it regularly, but now it looks like that valorant didn't make it as the new number one shooter game. I am not betting so much on e sports at the moment because money is a big tight, but I still like to watch games on YouTube and twitch. What I noticed from the viewer numbers is that CSGO is still more popular. And even games like Escape from Tarkov has a lot of viewers even though there is no real competitive angle for betting. Maybe it takes a few more years for Valorant to reach its place at the top.

[STT]

Valorant does a better job then overwatch, a large part of that is involving the audience.   I actually rate csgo or cs highest for  two key elements which would be audience participation and involvement which will lead to betting, also then a core competitive element to that game.      CS took years to develop and wasnt immediately popular, on launch it lost out to an ancient version of its own game which felt better to pro players.
   A few more maps and tweaks and Valorant could develop and accumulate interest for bets, so key question would be durability vs competition and new games etc.  I dont rate it the best ever, its got to earn that but could end up there.

We, as gamblers, are also fond in betting in various sports, even eSports, that has its increasing community and popularity from time to time. Considering the biggest Prize pool of the International of DotA2 (that was postponed), people are slowly being fond to gaming (add the fact that the quarantine affected such factor).

Here's a little insights:
So recently, RIOT made VALORANT -- a 5v5, first-person shooter game that was a ripoff of CS:GO and has a little touch of Overwatch, what makes it unique is that each characters has it's own ability (Just like DotA) and of course, had it's unique gameplay that each and every team sets could go in millions of possible strategies and outcome. It's beta testing release made so many views from various valorant twitch streamers such as Pokimane and Hiko. Hence, after its release, many had started downloading and playing Valorant, even streamed it through either Twitch or Facebook. Hence, from time to time, its popularity and users are increasing as well.

SOME THOUGHTS
Would you consider in betting in Valorant games? Do you think it would be much popular, as betting in Dota2, in the future?

I think it's too early to engage in VALORANT Betting because this game is not yet as popular as, let's say CS:GO or Dota 2

If you answered this two years ago yes but two years has passed already and valorant is now a popular fps game along with cs go and dota 2. I only don't know if valorant is now available for betting on many sports betting sites but they better add it now if they haven't yet since the game has a potential. Many people are playing it, and this can bring extra traffic/income to a betting site.

The OP has attached some sites on which valorant betting is available but I see that those sites only support fiat and other centralized payment methods like credit/debit card, skrill, and alike but how about those who wants to gamble privately and only use a crypto? Hhmm.

I had also thought something similar, normally the sites that exist are not in crypto format, they are all in another way of money, skrill at least I do not handle it or paypal, but I do not know if the creators of the game can adapt it to crypto and It can be managed through a gaming platform, I don't know how good it is to have it in a casino, I know it is very popular right now, I think it has become very popular after the pandemic or rather since the start of the pandemic It is when many people lost their jobs and began to look for other alternatives, and that option was born, however I would like some site to take this idea into account.

True, Valorant has become famous now and trying to get the spotlight on e-sport FPS category. I think it can tie up now on CSGO since pro players on CSGO like Shroud is now on Valorant pro scene same as other ex-CSGO pro players. It's true that most betting casino that has valorant betting don't accept cryptocurrency but I did a simple googling and I found one crypto casino which is accepting major cryptocurrency to bet on their esports betting such as valorant. That casino is Thunderpick, It's my first time seeing it and I think it's a legit casino.

I think it's too early to engage in VALORANT Betting because this game is not yet as popular as, let's say CS:GO or Dota 2. Also, in this game, there are no top lineups yet on which you can bet money. If, after all, someone wants to start doing esports betting, then it's better to pay attention to CS:GO. It's really possible to make money on this betting. I was making money at once, but then I realized I wanted to change sports and found the Wunderdog NBA Picks, where I look at forecasts for basketball matches. Thus I became much more likely that I would win and earn.

Yea, Valorant sucks for betting.

If someone plans to do it anyway, then set aside all logic and keep on wagering on underdogs. Given how many upsets this game faces, you are bound to make some profit. NFA
Just like how Sentinels with Shroud & Tenz lost to literally WHO   in a qualifier lol

Personally, I prefer CSGO more than NBA or any other sports. More predictable and enjoyable to watch.
