The audience at KDL today was what can be called lackluster at best, anyone know the viewcount/if the scene is growing at all?
A game where the first thing you do is scout with a “worker”. Does that make any sense? Who scouts with a “worker”? That’s like sending out the janitor to perform recon, what general would do that? Retarded game.

the view count right now is irrelevant,the scene needs to get better first off all and a good way to motivate people over there is stuff like KDL.
Not everything needs to start with +20k viewers.

Its not like that, it just seems like there were more people there earlier.

Have to agree with that. That was incredibly good response time, really nice dodge. (Although I do know a little bit about LoL.)

I stick with disruptor now as my default. I find it way easier to turn the tide of a fight and I always have the ability to mail someone back 4 seconds.


For some reason I find Disruptor to be really good in pubs as well. I'm something like 10-3 on him.

Might be something to do with the fact he's really good at controlling the other team in fights and ganks with Glimpse/Kinetic Field/Static Storm.

The spear like like holy arrow in Dota, but does more damage based on distance. It would likely have dropped Lee Sin like a sack of bricks. Flash is the blink dagger of Lol, except it's a summer ability and has a fucking 2 minute cool down.

The reaction time was very impressive and he had about two frames of animation before it hit him. People mocking it just wish they had that reaction time.

Unless lol mechanics changed you flash toward the direction of the cursor so if faker anticipated opponents move he would give command, have cursor at a safe location and be ready to flick d/f (default hotkey) as soon as he suspects or sees something.

Yes it's good reaction but near-insta hex when a bat blinks to grab a teammate, etc is just as impressive if not more since it requires 2+ clicks.
Stuck.

I dont see it happening to be honest. We used to have only starladder, now we got starladder, dreamleague, jdl, DMCD, Yard, etcetc + all asian tournaments that are run as seasons at the same timetables. Competition for viewercount and ticket is pretty huge. I dont see KDL compete againt the foreign powerhouse tournaments to be honest, KDL was just too late to the dota2 party and LoL could just be too big in korea.

It's the opposite.

A strong scene grows from a popular game not the other way round.

Welp, I don't see where the problem is then. Killing the supports first is probably the best way to win a fight if you are on the same level of farm as your opponent.

Crystal Maiden, with the slowest movement in the game and a turn radius that can crush souls. Also, she has like 10 hp. She is either amazing in pubs or you send a lot of time walking away from their melee carry while your team stuns anyone else.

Yes, but when I am running in the other direction with the mek and trying not to get two shotted by Sven, it's bad for the team. I'm not talking about them being efficient in a team fight and picking off the supports. I'm talking about them chasing them around and leaving me to fend for myself against the cores looking to murder me.

I know I am going to die as a support, but wih purpose. Not getting rolled because your team has kill ADD and can't keep their eye on the prize.

I alwasy go for support when playing Storm though. And it easy to ignore cries from a support than a carry.
