Well, Dread is a super old-school legend, who retired from competitive playing to stream and cast full time. I think Merlini is the English speaking equivalent. Except Merlini went straight from being an old-shool player into streaming, while Dread played more or less competitive the whole time before retiring.

But I am amazed that Dread attract so many viewers.

My goodness his peak viewership is probably on par or even more than Dendi.

Because its a really fun stream.
How often do you see a full jungle KotL with Midas jungling for 50 minutes to feed others with the sentry stacking bug?
Or how often can you watch Xboct in Dreads stack vs Dendi and his stack with voice comms?

If it was in english, he'll probably had twice the viewers because its really fun to watch.

Well obviously every employee of valve is doing the work of 20 men.
Would you employ lesser men for equal wages?

to the best of my knowledge a lot of riot works on things that Valve community-sources like cosmetics, or things that one person deals with like balance, and things that they just focus on a lot more than Valve does like new music. they also need teams for things like graphics and game design that are capable of subdividing into 10 or 12 champions in development at a time.
the biggest thing that I don't like about how Riot does things is how they put so many people on their balance team. there are so many conflicting views on how the game should go which constantly subvert each other. not to mention the champion releases.

yeah im perfectly happy with icefrog essentially having the be all end all say and probably being the only member of the valve team to be involved in balance changes

i would like to see more resources poured into servers (dealing with the issues that SEA and SA servers are having), finishing systems implemented into the game with little thought towards them actually being effective, fun and useful (TMM, Guilds, Mentor system, Ranked MM hueh, item eligibility system) and probably the biggest one, fixing the mountain of bugs that exist in game.
