To me, the round structure of CS is what makes it most engaging. I watch a lot of League and CS, and having many more rounds to play in CS makes comebacks a lot easier, and so, it makes crafting a game narrative and excitement a lot easier. League is exciting, but a lot harder to get out of a hole than with CS, so barring some crazy plays, it's a harder to make a comeback.

Also many of the rounds in game are miniarcs themselves. First the lull waiting for new round, then the setup, next build up maybe one or two players dying. Then it entering the crescendo and that is either it or we have post plant scenario with an other build up potentially coming to save by single player.
