He should have gone to SC2, to make sure BW remains the greatest game ever.

Good luck to Storm Zerg in all his endeavors. Still can't watch LoL without falling asleep, though...
You can use control groups to train units without even looking at your base.

Far superior in what? If you are trying to diss sc2 with LoL, just don't. LoL is sc2 of MOBA, just even more easier and casual friendly.

But there is nothing chocking about sc2 not being so popular in Korea while SCBW, LoL and all the shitty FPS games instead of a game like CS 1.6 or the old CoD games have huge player bases - you can play online for free.

3rd. BW is still bigger than SC2.

I don't think LoL is very big in Korea, but it also released there fairly recently, so it's a good bet it'll grow.

Still, it's really kind of arbitrary a career move. I guess I wish him well, though.

I wonder if it's named "Storm" after him. I'd like to see him play, I guess. I wonder what champion he'd pick.

Warcraft 3 RTS 5.49%
Lineage RPG 3.03%
Dungeon and Fighter RPG 2.40%
World of Warcraft RPG 2.38%
Terra RPG 2.22%

Source: gametrics

Afaik, these stats are drawn from activity in PCBangs (Korean internet cafes, and are usually used to follow which games are popular and so on). Sudden Attack, the korean CS, being the most dominant one followed by Aion, an MMORPG.

LoL has seen an explosive growth in Korea, which is why you see all them Pros talk about it / move it. It could very well be the next big thing in Korea. (If it already isn't.)

Really looking forward to this.

LoL is a moba not an RTS

Good luck Yellow! :D

Any thread involving SC2 and LoL eventually turns into this SC2-is-a-superior-game-ego-stroking. People were saying the same thing about BW to SC2 when it came out.
There was one really amazing gal. She was one of the biggest chick i ever seen.

For all we know LoL is as bad/good as SC2... this is the BW section.

It's a bigger distance, but in the same direction. LoL is to SC2 what SC2 is to BW. It's more trendy, more played and watched, has more tournaments and more hype. But they're considered more boring to watch, and skill doesn't make as much as a difference.


I'm glad Yellow did this. It adds further proof to "progamers won't fight for the superior game if they're offered enough money" (a quite obvious statement anyway).

There is a reason behind every hate.

Like my ultimate hate for SC2 (Flash being the 2nd), but I digress.

If LOL is big in China, then there is a possibility that it can also be big in Korea.

MOBA games are HUGE in Korea. Last time I went to the OGN studios, they hosted an event for Chaos, which is a Korean DotA-style map on War3. The stadium was filled to capacity and then some - far more packed than it was for Proleague that day. I was extremely surprised, and I'll be way more surprised if League of Legends doesn't pull the same numbers given its popularity in PCBangs.
