afm psychology feels same as from csgo background. same "just one more case" feeling as opening cases on steam. same near miss design. they just found different cultural aesthetic to deliver same mechanism. dragon and tiger instead of knife and glove
yes i know ocean king from csgo community. did not realise this was full mainstream gambling product ecosystem in SEA. the path from arcade to gambling is different than west took
this is the difference. hot fruits cannot hurt you the same way. pg soft games have something different. maybe the mobile design. maybe the character. the tiger feels personal when it wins. is irrational but is true
this is why i noticed from watching sea streams. these players have different relationship to these games. less focus on rtp, more focus on "gacor" - basically community belief that certain slots are hot at certain time. i see indonesian forums where people post "today mahjong ways 2 gacor at...
ok just for background - i mostly play crash games and iv been watching lot of streams from SEA region. these guys play completely different slots than what we have on roobet or stake. mahjong ways. fortune tiger. lucky neko. all pg soft. the style is completely not like pragmatic or netent...
loook up his 2011 abc mart msl run. goes through jaedong, bisu and sea in the group stage and doesn't drop a map. that's when you understand what the gap actually was.
zywoo. always 👌
yes. also zywoo doing this in era when cs is most globally competitive ever. every region serious now, not like early years when it was basically scandinavia plus small everyone else
zywoo is better than anyone active right now by clear gap. s1mple at his peak probably better than faker at his peak. individual skill in cs is different thing - 5v5, one life, you carry alone or team loses. faker wins with good teammates around him. s1mple was dragging teams to results they had...
giantx been consistent whole tournament, this wasnt a fluke - beat navi 2-0 in quarters, beat TLA 2-1 in semis, now this so roster stability is real, they didnt change anyone and kept improving
cs betting always been huge in russia/europe. easier to bet on than moba games cos shorter matches and more straightforward
also loads of tournaments year round not just few big events like dota international
heh americans complaining about regulations while we bet on tier 3 CIS matches with zero oversight
urs regulatory nightmare is still better than wild west we have here
good catch about match fixing. seen few suspicious games in tier 2 cs scene where odds moved crazy just before match started. problem is prize pools for smaller tournaments still pretty low so temptation might be there for players to throw games for betting money
yeas mate same here, csgo betting huge here. shanghai major was crazy for betting volume
my friends making good money on navi and faze bets this year. much easier than traditional sport cos we actually understand the game
