Seems like KHAN players are the ones having the most trouble with SC2 transition. Wonder why?

NaDa made a LoL commercial, that's hardly addicted lol. He's a SC2 pro and has been since the game's release.

Huh? That has nothing to do with what I posted at all -_-;;
You are trying to make it look like I have something against LOL (??) for some unknown reason.

I'm wondering why KHAN team has more trouble with the transition compared to the other teams...

O.O really ?? reach is playing LoL right now to learn more about it since he is managing a LoL team and so is yellow . Nada sound so enthusiastic when he talk about LoL .

So nada has done one promotion for LoL and Yellow too . Now I have to wait one from REACH !.

They don't have the most trouble with SC2 transition. Samsung KHAN is the team with the most freedom under Kespa's juristiction. They respect the decisions of its player. They can play any games they wish to play and not forced under any regimes. And thus the players found a new love in LoL. That's why they made the switch.

And beside Samsung is currently number 2 in the SPL rankings with SCtoo taking the majority of the time slot. So I wouldn't worry too much about them.

They didn't turn focus until much later unlike the other teams and I wouldn't knock them yet.

You're spewing off bullshit.

You have no idea just like I have no idea what Grape's reasons were.

What bullshit am I spewing? I didn't say anything about Grape. All I said was that the team itself is having a hard time with the transition (ie. due to losing players), whereas the other teams are having a easier time maintaining players.

Don't be so pointlessly hateful.

baubo actually in some way answers your curiosity.

All this talk of lol being casual and less stressful makes no sense. What makes progaming so stressful isn't so much the game itself but rather the competition. If there's enough money in the scene, you'll have people practice 10hours a day working to become the best at the game. Even if mechanically LoL isn't on par with BW, they still need to practice teamwork and other skills to give them an edge. So either these guys think there's more money in LoL, or they like the game more than SC2.

I also think another possibility is that SC2 is a more established scene, with a ton of great players already fighting for prize/sponsorship money. This isn't like BW where you know being among the best kespa players make you the best in the world. Overall, SC2 is a pretty risky transition for a lot of players. Khan players just seem to have figured this out quicker than others. Probably due to their more relaxed, open atmosphere.

It's not that strange.
LoL is more fun to play for the players then Starcraft.
Also cause it's more forgiving and less hardcore then SC.
If you can make more money playing LoL I can only see benefits for these players.

I mean, other than Khan players. There are a bunch of first teamers that we haven't seen play since the start of this season.


Edit:
Where, Rush and the other Woongjin zerg could possibly switch. But I'm more curious about some other players who haven't been left out of the rosters yet. I guess we'll find out more in the next month or two.

seriously dude? you're being kinda pathetic with all that lol promoting, i wonder why you don't post as much in lol section as you do in starcraft ones >.>

nada got paid to do a comercial, i would say sonic adventures is the next e-sports if i got paid to do it.
reach said he knew nothing abut lol when he joined the team, he wasn't even considering it when he left KT.

just stop dude.

I don't post in LoL forum that doesn't mean I don't watch my friends play the game ? Well it's quite a legitimate question i am putting forth here . If nada and yellow was paid to do so it probably would feel fake or they are just damn good actors at it and reach him self said that he was not sure about returning to e-sport however in the end he came back for LoL . Which must be something that LoL has or the coach of that LoL team has some really good persuading skill .

I will be honest here I rather watch LoL than sc2 happy now ?
