When it comes to tactical shooter games, Valorant has quickly become one of the best that has been released in a very long time. Carlos Rodriguez Santiago has given the opinion that Valorant is steps ahead of its main gaming rival, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. He went on to say that Valorant is going to end up destroying Counter-Strike when it comes to the number of people playing.

He gives the reason that in Counter-Strike the only thing that the player has going for them is the mechanics of the game. Carlos thinks that the biggest downfall of Counter Strike is going to be the lack of content creation by the game. Carlos has had an elaborate career playing League of Legends and World of Warcraft before starting G2 eSports. With his professional career and commercial career, a dominance in Valorant could be a pedestal for his career.

He states that videogames are more than just the game, it is what occurs around the game. With Valorant there are different characters and each one has background and lore. Humans are empathetic by nature, which makes us want to learn more about each of the characters. This is one of the reasons that the game is so good.
