What hurt R.Lewis more than anything the first time is the fact that it was Shahzam who was essentially his main source of information. Anything that came from shahzam was going to initially cause negative reactions/ mixed emotions. With this said, I myself was really surprised at how the cs:go community really didn't care all too much. I thought it would be like sc2, with people even wanting to email sponsors, etc but the major consensus of the community seemed to not take it too seriously. Or just be willing to look past it. R.Lewis does seem to have shahzam's back in his piece. He portrays him in a good way, etc.. Definitely a little I scratch your back, you scratch mine going on between them. Good investigating by him in any way. | ||

Am I wrong thinking the only way teams get exposure in CSGO is if a match is on CSGL, there's a LAN, or the reddits? skins definitely help with exposing the game to more viewers. Remember when CSGL banned ESEA from their site? ESEA only had like 400 viewers a match for those 2 weeks. | ||

Becaus of the "Box Dropping" and the need to buy a key to have a chance of "winning content", it's basicly per definition lottery and gamble. If valve does not have a licencse it could even get banned in germany. | ||

Sure, as a Cloud9/NiP fan I will watch all their games just to watch and love it. Same goes for any matches at Majors/Lans. But random cevo week 4.2 match between Lunatik and Area 51 I really don't give a shit about unless I can bet skins. | ||

You give a shit about the skins. | ||
