You'll see there's actually almost no one criticizing this lol, at least from the BW fans. It's only SC2 fans getting bothered by this I think.
The thing I find it kinda funny is that many people hate SC2 for "being easy with MBS, automining, etc", and then cheer on to LoL, which is a dumb down version of DotA/DotA2. It's kinda make their argument not really logical anymore
Don't get me wrong, I don't hate LoL. It's just funny for me that people can be this illogical just to spite the game they hate.

Riot puts into their contract for every tournament League is involved in that they can't have any other games from the same genre. That's the very definition of "hurting eSports."
Riot pays tournaments prize money and Dota/HoN don't. That is the extent of their "shadiness".
Source: And MLG Gold Q+A with Sundance Giovanni, when someone asked if Dota2 would be in MLG, he said Riot supported their game financially (prize money) and Valve didn't.
It's true that LoL's scene is a lot less organic than BW's or even SC2's, but if people are really enjoying it, I don't think that's all that bad.

Please stop pulling this sort of nonsense.
It's more likely that the people who moved from BW to SC2 simply moved again to LoL for the same reasons--a newer game and a bigger and richer scene. And now people are pissed that those hoppers have abandoned their game.

Oh, so those people saying BW was obsolete were right. Just not about which game.

If it is called StarCraft obviously there's gonna be comparison, on the other hand most people commenting about LoL don't care about DotA.

Because I would rather the players take in something that they actually enjoy instead of being forced down the throat something else. And we are totally empathetic about their choice.

After reading almost whole thread, i've started to think that the future of Starcraft may not be so bright, as LoL and Dota 2 Get more popularity somehow. So SAD T.T

well it was sort of the same for bw, didn't stork mention how his slump happened because their team was forced to practice bw and he got bored and started playing wow? Also LoL is easier to switch to than sc2 because its an easy game to get into and its popular right now

Literally, any bashing towards LoL can be replaced with the word "SC2" and the statement would hold true, in terms of skill cap, etc...stop arguing, let the progamers do what they want. As Xiphos stated, seeing them do what they want is more important than being forced to play a game they don't prefer.

As I declare over and over again: "we wouldn't be talking about this game if it wasn't named Starcraft." Its success has been built almost purely on that brand name, and therefore it will be unable to step out of its predecessor's shadow.

Yea, I don't get why people think high level RTS mechanics are going to translate directly into MOBA skill. The games are different in both mechanics and gameplay dynamic. 1v1 vs 5v5. Hardcore multitasking and economy management vs. almost solely micromanagement based play. It's almost like thinking pro FPS players could transition to RTS because they can click accurately and click fast -.-;;
