Regardless I expect 3D clan to do very well. RoxKis have been doing decently and with the addition of AA I'm sure they will improve vastly. | ||

With that in mind, im really curious to see what the numbers are like for other games like dota in Korea. It's not just hype, LoL is definitely way more played than dota in korea on several orders of magnitude. | ||

Nada will be playing that apparently. I doubt GOM is investing in Dota 2, i just don't see it. But i hope they prove me wrong. | ||

I just meant that its possible that many people over-estimate its dominance. Relying on statistics that riot gives is hardly reliable. I remember seeing how popular sc2 was in Korea by the number of people playing it in PC bangs. | ||

Lets get serious here, we all love Dota but outside of maybe China and Russia LoL will be the clear choice for organizations as far as viewers/money/popularity. Keep in mind no ladder on Dota 2 really hurts it vs LoL in the more competitive communities like Koreans who take laddering in games seriously. Unless you have numbers that say that a larger number of koreans proportionally plays ranked compared to the rest of the world I don't think you can make such an assumption. I don't think that is the reason why Dota hasn't or will not kick off in Korea as much as LoL. | ||
