I've browsed through several pages of this thread and it strikes me as so odd how much hate there is for League of Legends there is in this forum with arguments that LoL takes less skill than other MOBA games. The reason it strikes me as odd is because these people are the same people that are arguing that sc2 is better than BW. Don't you realize that your arguments don't go both ways?
What's that probe doing there? It's a scout. You mean one of those flying planes? No....

Watch the whole damn video. They're not taking it seriously and if you do you look like the guy on the internet who missed the joke.

There are plenty of games that have died off from the esports scene, halo/cod are no exceptions. Cod never deserved to be an esport title. Halo's popularity gave MLG its start and they've been holding onto it since despite its decline.

Need a team based shooter? how about counter strike. Need fancy graphics? Get cs:go when it's released.

Need a single play shooter? How about a quake or UT style game. The unique guns and fast paced action make them very entertaining to watch.
I only make 5 actions per minute. But since I use all my time deliberating and planning, my 5 actions are so brutally devastating that children cry out and grown men weep.

Start 4 minutes on and you'll see that the rest of their thing isn't about SC at all.


Yea, to be honest, this isn't really worth watching, IMO.

They don't say anything too controversial, they're a bunch of guys just joking around.

Agreed. I didn't give a shit about the video, but it was pretty clear that they were just joking. Some of us need to grow some chest hairs.

I don't get how this video is so bad against SC2, they say some shit, but they are mostly talking about their own community.

just my two cents as a relatively neutral spectator:
i remember when milkis got trashed by the majority of the community, both here on tl and on reddit for posting his elite comments about sc1 being the only real esport. two weeks later, people on both of these sites complain about dreamhack showing games other then sc2 on the mainstage.
theres even been a massive thread of sc2 is the only esports bullshit on reddit.
i just feel like a big chunk of the sc2 community are just ignorant towards any other games.

The word "Nerd" has very different connotations from the way in which I've been using it for years if these guys are nerds...

If you watch the whole video you will see that they really envy the SC2 scene. They are on the brink of extinction and trying to keep their game alive. At the end the make several references to how the SC2 scene is so big and the problem is they don't have a unified community. Sounds more like jealousy to me. The video is harmless.

99% of the people who hate LoL don't even play moba games and just join the bandwagon off assumption because of its bad reputation of being "easier" than dota/hon, yes, it is easier, it has a much easier learning curve, but the skill ceiling is still just as high as dota or hon as far as teamwork goes, but they wouldn't know that because the only thing they know how to do is insult other games under the guise of "skill", even games they have never or will never play

Just a couple of guys having fun and talking shit. I've listened to a couple minutes. They are a bit obnoxious, but I don't think they're all that serious. Haven't heard anything that makes me go for the pitchforks.

And just saying, Starcraft players are pretty fucking stylish. Just look at motherfucking NaDa, for one example.

And on the off-chance they hate SC2 and want it to die hard, it's their opinion and they're entitled to theirs. The majority of the community probably think it's sweet that MLG is getting huge numbers, and Halo is most likely not going anywhere.

This is hardly true. My friends who have played both BW and SC2 still prefer BW, and we all hate LoL, I've never played BW myself but I play ssbm competitively, and I hate brawl with a passion, so I can understand where the BW people come from.

The skill ceiling isn't nearly as high in teamwork. I subbed in for my friend in a LoL inhouse with people that play it seriously, against an equal team, and we won by a landslide. I did absolutely nothing as support for the first 5 minutes of the game, it was really boring.

Why do we care what halo people say? The first year sc2 was in mlg it broke records, and they didnt even have a proper place for it, they had folding tables and whatnot instead of booths

We are an elitist community, but we're also a very well mannered one compared to most others.

yea i realize its not all about SC, im sure when they arent talking trash its prob a great thing for halo players, but to start off the thing with 2 of 3 stating they are just going to talk mad shit about 2 other gaming communities is just silly, talking shit is pointless when done in public, its shameful.

The amount of double standards I see in the SC2 forums is out of hand. I'll give you that.
