I played alot of LoL too and what made me come back to Sc2 is the skill level that you can show and be proud of. I'm a 1600 elo player at LoL with 2000 games played and there is so many whining/afk/bm/etc that playing ranked (read : solo queue) isnt very rewarding and enjoyable.

This is your hobby, not your chore. You shouldn't need to find a way to continue to do it, unless the payoff is so great that it's worth the initial dread (such as running a half marathon as a hobby). I don't view SC2 like that, so if you don't find yourself wanting to play it you should probably find something else to spend your time on.


This there is no reason to force yourself to play if you don't enjoy it.
When I think of something else, something will go here

The difference is that in LoL, you have to deal with those people as team mates. In SC2 you get to pwn bmers and drink their deleicious tears as they cry "IMBA"

I don't. It's not a very good game and I only play it when I feel like reminding myself why I don't play it. There's just better games out there for casual fun and if I wanted to play something serious I'd just play BW.

So, if you don't find it rewarding to play, don't play it.

if you're not a pro gamer, you dont have to choose, just keep playing LoL if you are enjoying it, and hey, if one day you want to play some sc2, then play sc2, just play whichever one you feel like

The game is challenging and there will always be someone better than you. No one is forcing us to play, I find it fun and enjoyable

I stopped playing 1v1 forever ago. Team games with irl friends are always fun though, it's a great social experience.
