The Formula™ 1 - Valve waits for Riot to release Valorant. 2 - Riot invests millions in marketing to lure the TikTok generation to try FPS games. 3 - Waits for the Valorant hype to end. 4 - Valve drops CS2 and lures most of Valorant players into the real OG FPS. 5 - GG WP.

Until 2018, Souvenir Packages were dropped randomly to people watching the games. Imagine if Valve decides to drop CS2 Beta Keys to viewers during the Major Final. It would probably break all records and finish CS:GO with style. Hopefully it happens.

If that’s it, it will be the lamest game release I’ve ever seen in my life, even more if we consider it’s CS. They didn’t even take out the Paris Sale. Nothing new, just the Limited Test is now updated and open to everyone. What a marketing waste. Unbelievable.
