Well you need insanely good reflexes and though high apm for very few quarter of seconds. You can fuck up real hard. Definitely more demanding than SC2, though not as BW


Different skill sets. LoL has more to learn in regards to game mechanics, different champion interactions, team based strategy and co-ordination but doesn't need the same requirements in multitasking and general APM compared to BW or Sc2. One could argue that getting to the top in LoL is harder than either game however due to the larger playerbase and competition in LoL, but I wouldn't like to say for sure.

Well, his father runs a sizable company, and his brother is a doctor. Maybe Flash can take over his father`s business.

There is something about flash's mentality that just sets him apart from other gamers. Hes such a winner. It is going to be interesting to see what hes going to do after progaming.

I'm surprised he didn't go on a vacation after spending his teenage years as a progamer with no freedom. Nice interview

omfg yes please, that would be AMAZING
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

How about you learn Korean instead....

You're entitled to nothing from anyone else.

Good for him for taking care of himself first instead of listening to whiners.

Definitely disagree. I was diamond in LoL before I pretty much stopped playing. I was near the top of masters in SC2. The hardest things to do in LoL is pretty much done on a consistent basis in SC2. The only thing harder in LoL is the teamwork aspect of the game (getting your team in sync, which can be pretty hard in solo queue) and that you need to frequently keep up with the meta because Riot changes the game and releases new champions pretty often. I don't even think LoL is that strategic either, most of the time the right decision to make is pretty clear, it's just getting your team to move as one unit.
