How can you make fun of automated tournaments? That shit was amazing in war3 and would be incredible in sc2 or even dota2. Even if they're not ultimately 'required' to make a game successful or not, it's still fucking sweet and would be a welcome addition to most major competitive games. | ||

I was drawing an equivalence between Chinese Dota and Korean BW. Oh. I think a nice comparison in terms of dominance is Chinese Dota ^ 500 = Korean BW. | ||

I generally mock things I never used with my friends and seemed ok. j/k And I was more pointing out that I haven't seen the feature in any other game since WC3, with the single exception of Super:SC4. I just wonder if they were as widely used, or just one of those features that everyone thinks is awesome, but no one uses.(like Twitch VoD). Now, enter the anecdotal evidence. | ||

They're even sponsored by a porn site! Too bad the quality of the gulag has fallen imho, it's still decent but it just used to be better with less shitposting, but i guess as the gulag grew so did the number of shitposters. happened to sc2g as well | ||

The problem with SC2 is that it was professionalism at interpreted by 15 year olds. At least Dota doesn’t have that problem, I think because the player base is older.(zero evidence to back that up, just my gut) | ||

I just don’t do it when I am assisting an attorney in court. And being professional doesn’t mean you are nice all the time. Sometimes you're a fucking asshole, but you use very civil language while doing it. The problem with SC2 is that it was professionalism at interpreted by 15 year olds.
