You created your account to attempt to troll someone who used MOBA sarcastically to refer to league of legends? what a waste of an account.

more importantly dendi has 21k of the 26k viewers on dota 2 on twitch. xD also he almost ties the top two lol streamers atm combine (23k total for them, 21k for him).


So Dendi has more viewers that random lol streamer that aren't even big at all?

Omg someone call the news

yeah, a dota 2 player has essentially the same amount of viewers as a former pro player and a non pro personality who are both larger than day9 in terms of average viewer numbers. combine.

What point are you making?
You are just comparing 2 random numbers too each other without any sense, there is nothing to grasp.

Lol viewers numbers are bigger by a lot there is no reason to do random comparisons just so that dota looks better.

just. stop. nobody cares anymore. we are not so insecure that we need validation from the mouthfoaming masses of the Internet. these viewer numbers are of absolutely no consequence to anyone but people who buy ads on twitch.

we don't care that lol is popular - in fact we're pleased riot managed to bring the genre to such a huge audience. we all know which game we like best, (some even play both) and we respect and tolerate our fellow internet user if he happens to be in the other camp. we know that no amount of internet bitchfighting is going to change anybody's mind about anything.

This is a pretty healthy point of view, I'm gonna go with this.

LoL doesn't have a Dendi, even SC2 never had someone who had Dendi's levels of simultaneous skill and popularity. He's really one of a kind in esports and probably my favorite stream to watch, even though I'm much less familiar with DotA than LoL and Sc2.

Wat.

I dislike LoL, but to say they don't have personalities as big as Dendi is downright wrong.

The most popular LoL streamers pull 2 to 5 times the amount of viewers Dendi can hit as his peak.

such a stupid statement it hurts.

Even korean dota 2 players know that in order for dota 2 to thrive it needs to steal a large chunk of the korean LoL player/viewer base. We can pretend all we want that it isn't a competition, but at the end of the day that's exactly what it is. Riot knows this, so does valve, and so should you.

I am not saying that both games cant exist along side one another, but i am saying that in order for dota 2 to reach the level must of us hope for, it needs to be done by converting HoN/LoL/RTS/FPS gamers.

It is refreshing to know that the process is working and still growing, fans of other games are now becoming fans of dota 2, and we are seeing player streams that exceed 20k. last year that number would have been a pipe dream.

Which says nothing about the relative popularity of Dendi.
