For a game that has a 20 times more concurrent players online* it isn't too shabby for us.

We had more than them the entire day until they released their awards, which is currently doing well on reddit. Their current numbers are actually kind of surprisingly low considering the reddit exposure. We generally have 2-3k active if we have something on the reddit FP.

Thoorin hated on liquid too recently

The whole gangs here.

I tried to watch a bit of that, couldn't get through more than half through since he's just outright wrong about why TL didn't feature LoL in the past. And the way he pretends to know the thoughts of our editorial staff and generalizes us all as LoL haters is super annoying.


so standard thoorin

i didn't watch it i could already hear it in my head

But I really think Thoorin is pretty odious and salty all the time anyways, he seems to hate Dota because he's a league guy now and thats what league people DO

From what I've seen of Thoorin, he's an idiot.

Don't give that guy the attention he doesn't deserve.

Like what the fuck are 1.95k of those people doing? I'm confused.

can we have a monthly flame thorin day

although honestly I'm really impressed that he gets people to take his opinion seriously after writing a 10k word manifesto on why it was ok to hate on poland hahahahaha

Like yeah this guy is obviously a wackjob but he said something about TL and league and he's confident so it must be true

Holy shit, the thing is longer that any legal brief I have ever written and has worst sentence structure. The guy needs a life or a girl or something. Who writes that much about an event when they are not paid to do so.

Yeah it's pretty hilarious to think about the fact that someone actually sat down and wrote all of that. Like he was convinced that that was the correct way to get his point across.

Yeah I wasn't kidding lol. Literally over 10k words. Its length and off-kilter slightly insane ranting give me great faith in his journalistic abilities.

Its is like unreadable in the worst ways. Its like his brain vomited for an hour straight onto the keyboard and he couldn't' stop it. I would be shocked, but then I remembers this is one of Slasher's co-workers at On-Gamers.

Poor Cyborg-Matt.

I read through most of that when he posted it, but my mind has mastered the technique of escaping into the land of dragons and unicorns if it's forced to do something boring. I remember going like 'he's not completely wrong" or smth like that
