Didn't know WCG was still kicking. I thought that they announced a while back that they were only doing mobile games or something outlandish like that. Oh well, it's great to see them back on the horse, and especially awesome to see that they've included DotA 2. The DotA 1 thing seems weird, considering they're almost identical by now.




@_@ That strikes me as fairly ignorant. You do know they single-handedly kept foreigner Brood War alive, right? WCG used to be the big thing to train for every year--no other tournament was nearly as large-scale as WCG in the foreign Brood War scene. Bashing WCG (especially on a site like teamliquid) is a big no-no. It has a special place in many of our hearts.

While I am personally happy that LoL isn't included, the title is bad and is only made to induce rage/flame. If someone wants to make people notice that LoL won't be played at WCG, then he will make a thread in the LoL subforums and everything would be fine like that.

On another note, I'm surprised that WC3 is still being there. I mean, BW has been put aside (probably because of SC2), but I was under the impression that it has always been a more successful esport than WC3 (and not just in Korea). Most of the top players from both games have switched to SC2, but I guess since BW is now only played competitively in Korea it cannot appear in WCG . I'm sad.

1) That's your opinion though
2) HoN isn't relevant at all since it's been dwindling for a long time already, LoL is relevant
3) This is now official, it was just rumours before, official list was just released
4) Your post looks really smart
