Vspo's formula is tried and true: just find people who can rank in top 0.1% in some competitive game as a standardized test. Competent people who can achieve success in one field (even if it's just vidya) are usually smart enough to do it in another. So then they just need to give them a high quality anime avatar and teach them how to stream.

Their problem is that all the people with gaming talent in the west have already been snatched up by esport orgs (eg Vienna by c9, dtto by scarz, etc)

My big concern is what VSPO EN can offer. In Japan, vtubers are more established, and the competitive scene is more decentralised which allows more E-B tier tournaments. This is a perfect mix for VSPO because it means there's plenty of tournaments with high profile names for them to participate in. EN has no such equivalent. If you're a chuuba fan and want to watch an APEX tournament you either watch pro fleshtubers or literal who Indies. There's no CR Cup or VSaikyo over here, and therefore no value in hiring only gamer girls.

Selen herself said that the reason she hasn't hosted an APEX tournament is because she doesn't think there'll be enough interested participants and that won't magically change. All VSPO EN recruits will just be reincarnations of indie chuubas and if any of them decided to host a tournament they'd still be relying on NijiEN and even HoloEN's participation for established names and brand recognition. VSPO are actually better served by letting NijiEN and HoloEN hire/keep hiring 'gamers' because a collab with 750k sub Selen in a tournament is better than hiring Selen and losing an opportunity to reach out to the NijiEN fans.

The FPS space is fragmented in the western space because you have "influencers" like TimtheTatman or Dr. Disrespect who are above average players, but can maintain a following from one game to another. As influencers the things they say can make or break a games viability. Take for example the recent Warzone protest. Viewership metrics for that game nosedived because they weren't propping it up. Which sucks for those actively wanting to grow around said game (like Selen with Apex)

Whereas the e-sports scene lacks personalities and/or likeable streamers 9 times out of 10. While they can play with immense skill; the stream quality is on par of a 2view indie as they curse up a storm because nobody is capping B.

Better yet, look at NijiEN's recently failed "GAMER" wave. They took a year preparing to debut them and they are already 3views. If VSPO is smart, scoop up the leftovers of whatever you can from the Overwatch League, maybe hit up Sleepy from Twitch and get Selen. Least ensure your first generation can balance the act of vTubing and gaming right.

>> No.56069184

>>56068491
More or less. For FPS, if you want Overwatch you go to the dying OWL, if you want APEX you go to ALGS or a handful of much smaller events. Twitch Rivals is casual but also invite-only. So yeah, there's just not as much FPS stuff for vtubers to join. If VSPO EN don't host their own, they'll just be a 3-stack team in the JP events that'll take them, and I say 'take them' because there'll already be a lot of VSPO members stacking the lobby, and these tournaments have channel requirements like only being allowed to join if you have 50k subs, for example. Unless Brave Group are willing to invest big cash prizes into VSPO EN hosted tournaments to entice fleshtubers, their popularity feels more of a long-term gamble.

I have a hard time imaging it remotely getting anywhere.
VSPO got popular because of the tournaments, and networking with the Japanese/Korean pro scene + flesh streamers along with other boxes. I highly doubt Western e-sports orgs or fps streamers want anything to do with Vtubing and the EN Vtubing scene simply isn’t big enough for them to do something like VSai or CR Cup (not to mention getting sponsors).
I guess VSPO EN members will still me welcome in the JP scene like Rpr or whatever, but then there will be no point in having a separate EN branch.

It won't work because VSPO doesn't hire men and that's literally all of Selen's 'connections'. Her pro connections also aren't that special in the indie scene, either. Kaisa/Redsong01 is a better player than Selen and she's a 2-view that can sing and is a mod on Wigg and Nocturnal's streams. A good friend of hers is Shirosaki Mato, a Predator-level 2-view who is Japanese native and streams in English. Both of them regularly play with each other but also other Master/Diamond-level girls.

The only thing Selen can offer that others can't is the core audience of Dragoons that are okay with her spamming APEX. But that leads into something I feel everyone is ignoring. Selen is a variety streamer because playing competitive games all the time made her depressed and miserable. She loses that cushion outside of Niji. Fans want to see her do well but no one expects her to because she barely plays the games. That changes in VSPO. If she gets hardstuck in 17th Place in tournaments as a part of VSPO she's going to look like dogshit and won't have the excuses to help her recover anymore. It's a mental health speedrun.

Meh, I mean I think Redsong01 is a perfect fit for vspoen, alongside Niamocha and other indie vtubers that mainly plays apex. But I don't think you see how close the similarities of her and Selen are, just that Selen's overall 'stats' are better. Considering that Selen now has connections in the pro scene of not just apex (noc, tempo, wigg) but also on overwatch (surefour, linkzr, others), while redsong01 mainly streams apex with other indies (mostly male too). Also I think they're actually on par with fps skills too, even when Selen is variety, you can see her improvement in her solo fps streams since she can't troll much because no one can carry her. If Selen ever went to Vspo, she'll probably improve way more since all she can play is fps games, but that's unlikely since she has infinitely way more benefits in staying at niji.
So vspoen can only get the indies, or i guess people like babynikki who loves japan, learning japanese, has pro connections, and is looking into vtubing too.

>> No.56075995

This. Also western people who are into fps mainly just watch the pro players like imphal and mande, that's why fps chubaas stay 2-3views even if they're good at the game.

The fans/interns astroturfing here already seem scared. This is apparently the third largest vtubing agency in Japan, it’s not hard to imagine some talents either trying to jump ship or some potential indie applicants applying to this new company as their back up for if they can’t make it into Hololive. Because NijiEN offers very little and this entire year probably scared off most outside of the very desperate of applicants.

If you were reading the thread I was obviously referring to connections Selen could reach out to to audition alongside her/for future gens. Ollie, Froot, dtto, Ollie, Zen etc aren't budging from where they are. The people who she climbed rank with off stream are all dudes. The people who live in pro player poverty like Linkzr, Muma etc are all dudes. Selen barely interacts with her own branch so expecting her to be some kind of catalyst for gen unity by hiring her own people and collabing FPS games with them just sounds like a pipe dream. Yes, she has connections but she also has connections in Niji. She's getting invited to VSaikyo and Twitch Rivals because she's 'Selen', not because she's the person behind Selen. It's a big gamble with no clear motive for her.

Freedom? She's joining another JP corpo with perms hell. Networking? She doesn't speak Japanese. She's already networked her ass off as Selen. Collab projects? Nijisanji has 200 people. Money? Selen is one of the few members who constantly talks about how much she spends on projects. Beyond that, she already got the subscriber updraft from being in the company when Luxiem exploded. She'll never hit 750k subs again and will therefore never hit her goal of 1m subs - which is a goal she only set for herself a couple of weeks ago.

I guess the only way vspoen can become big is if somehow they can get their talents into playing in the big tourneys, but it would be hard to do since western female players that are capable of doing so are already signed to esports orgs and is well established in their respective spheres. Otherwise they could just get stuck into playing ranked FPS games or just hope to get invited in the JP tourneys, which is also hard to do considering the amount of JP FPS streamers automatically given priority first.

I've been watching Niji since 2019 and VSPO since 2020 and only remember a brief stint of VSPO members playing CSGO together before falling back in line to Apex and Valorant. Similar to what we're talking about with the EN scene, there's just not enough interest in JP to have CSGO overtake Valorant. Maybe that'll change with CS2 but it could also just become a FOTM game. Vtubers are slaves to numbers so until an Apex-killer puts it's dick on the table we are stuck in purgatory, and that means VSPO EN are reliant on hiring EN Apex/Valo players.

But that's not true.

They can stream a variety of games, but some of them like to play FPS ones (APEX, Valorant, COD, CSGO, Splatoon, OW, etc) because they either like it or because those games are easy/conventient content while being moderately popular among viewers.
