Fantastic game from a tactical point of view.

true but iG being WAAAY too cautious may have put off those who don't understand the game that well or is new to the game

To be fair, iG isn't here to make people interested. They're here to win money. If sitting at fountain afk for 3 hrs would guarantee them a Ti2 win I'm sure they'd do that too.


Then no-one watches the game and the prize pool goes down.

People like Na'Vi draw the crowd. People watch Na'Vi and fanboy them because they entertain.

Still not the player's responsibilty to go out of their way to try and make things entertaining on purpose. This is a job and its money. You don't juggle fruit when working at the supermarket to entertain your customers.


If the best way to play the game isn't interesting enough to sustain it as an esport, than that's an issue with the game, not the players. That's a problem for the developers to fix, if they feel it's a serious issue.

Uh.. It's not like all games end up as such farm fests.

Never said they did. I was just saying that it's stupid blame a team for playing to win instead of playing to entertain.

Maelk: The Valve employees... are not very good. Eul is okay. But I played with Erik Johnson but he's bad.
