I stated this yesterday and got downvoted into oblivion... just shows how many people were actually around here when on this very sub-reddit a link got posted to TL snubbing LOL and calling it 2nd tier to DOTA 2 and how they believe Dota 2 is the better choice and what not.
They have amazing writers and people there but people need to get the thumbs out of their asses. TL didn't help grow LOL when it was nothing, were elitists, chose DOTA 2 and now come in when its a big name, nothing wrong with that at all.

It's so delicious.



why do people on the internet feel the need to get angry over the stupidest things

He then was scared for life the entire visit here. Good going m8, you called us an uncivilized shithole so we made an uncivilized shithole here just for you

Thorin's major problem is he always acts like he knows it all, which makes him sound really smart to those who aren't informed about the matter he is speaking about. He often doesn't know shit about what he is talking about though and makes a total moron out of himself

Well he didn't attend then because ESL kicked him off the panel. I was hoping that it would be more permanent. Not sure why he is back *sigh*. Anyway, glad that the lol crowd has him. Hope he stays away from the dota scene.

Please focus on the joy you have to spend up to 100 hours to get to level 30 and then another 10'000 hour to unlock all heroes.

It appears about 2 months ago he realized that if he made 20-50 minute videos on youtube of him giving opinions on shit, it made him money. I can't really fault the guy for having a good plan, but historian is a bit of a stretch.

Bruh, there isnt a WoLoL video series that could feature your sick Batrider plays.

Anyways, I've got a spare LoL account I played like 1k games or so and didnt use for >3 years. Anybody interested?


EDIT: On the topic of Thoorin, his grilled interviews are good at least.

I also have a 3+ year old lol account with 20-30 heroes unlocked and 2-3 skins. Would that be worth something?

I have not logged into league in a long time, but I have to have like 40 heroes unlocked.

Edit: I got in real early, back in the beta phase before they would even take your money. It was the wild west of terrible.

A couple dollars at most. (yes people buy accounts with that little value, don;t ask me how I know)

Thorin being an esports historian when he only covers like 3 games is one the greatest jokes of the esports scene

It was wild west, but damn it was good back then compared to the WC3 Dota madness with leavers and shit.
Matchmaking worked, heros were somewhat balanced, the concept of this static meta wasnt there. God I had a lot of fun with that game when it wasnt as popular. Not gonna lie.

Dota 2 was still in alpha back then. I got my beta invite beginning of 2012, that's when I joined TL as well. I tried to get back into LoL recently with the changes but the GRIND omg same shit with HOTS, the grind is just so frustrating. I mean the day I'm done with Dota 2 I'll just sell my inventory and buy some other games with it.
