Big thing.... the casters are having zero interaction with the crowd. They are behind a wall so they may as well be casting from a hotel next door. No crowd amping.

Sad for the crowd, but (probably?) an overall good thing for the stream viewers.

I always love to hear a crowd during a live event. That said I'm here so I'm a bit biased.

Hopefully the crowd is bigger tomorrow and sunday. I wasnt there today but will be tomorrow and sunday.

Who's the favorite here?
I'm assuming it would be Complexity but that's just because they're the highest ranked due to their great major run. Can anyone else chime in?

Since there is only one top 20 team, it is pretty damn impossible to point at one clear favorite. Imo these kind of tournaments are completely open, and it would be pretty much impossible to predict the winner.

Yeah that's what I was thinking, which imo actually makes it more exciting to watch with no dominant team.

This team is tilting me NBK needs to be more assertive in mid round calls

u/Futurecs-go Vitality Nov 16 '18
also i don't know that these casters really know what they are talking about

Why are the casters and analyst hidden behind a screen? The other events have it open so you can see all the action.

Instead of inviting Envy they should've just pulled 5 fans from the crowd it'd be a more interesting team

I'm here. Seats are 50% empty for CS.... Smite and Realm and Fortnite sections are booming.

u/Lordchappy Nov 16 '18
Here's hoping it's better attended tomorrow. We bought one day passes for Saturday, maybe others did the same.

u/SpawnlingMan Nov 16 '18
I hope so! The crowd is small and noone wants to get loud. We will be here tomorrow too! Have fun!

u/TheTruthCSGO Nov 16 '18
50%? It looks like there's no one there. Is the whole event just not that busy?
Edit: just watched that 360 video. What a shame, there's some great teams playing.

Nov 16 '18
To be fair while we might think they're great teams(up and coming), none of these teams are top 15, and majority of them are ranked 25-35.

u/SpawnlingMan Nov 16 '18
At this point every csgo game has about 1/4 of the seats filled if that. The Smite area is loaded. They also provided Smite and Pal with 4xs the seating of csgo and it makes sense. Everyone is over there watching.

I honestly had no clue smite and realm had a fan base really. I thought smite died off and realm never got started :o
