Wow, MonteCristo is super mad....

Of course there may be more to that, but accusing Liquid of denying LoL is stupid. When Liquid picked a DotA 2 team, the announcement exposed that they felt closer to this game than to LoL. It's not a duty for Liquid to feature LoL... it's completely up to them to do it or not, whether it's a matter of money, interest, opportunity, whatever... MonteCristo acts like Liquid failed on this. That's completely stupid...

Oh, and by the way, there still has been a LoL community on the Liquid forums, with their own section... Usually Liquid puts up a dedicated website if they pick a team and start expanding onto a new esports.

And ROFL at the "Refusing to enter due to raging fanboys". That's a pretty low respect to Nazgul... And again, as if they "had" to. Damn these tweets have been poorly thought...

If he's sad that TL didn't get in LoL earlier, that's his problem, not TL's...

From the impression I have gotten as well, there has been quite a lot of negative / belittling attitude towards LoL from TL staff in the past, so I kind of get Monte's saltiness.
Whenever you correct someone's grammar just remember that nobody likes you.

MonteCristo ist just mad because the SC2 community hated his casting and he left for lol to get some money.
now he flames TL for doing the same, nice logic. those tweets are highly "unprofessional" though and he is even confirming his opinion is biased because he has all info from a person who "left" TL.

on topic:
glad TL put LOL out of their main page.

Fionn and Chexx are TL staff right? So talking about "the TL staff" seems a bit overgeneralizing...

If he has concerns with specific staff members that's towards them, not the whole TL organization, that he should point his anger at, in my opinion...

Also, as this is often the case in many places over the internet, LoL is sometimes considered more "casual" than many other esports like, say, DotA, SC, CS, so I'd like to know if it's not rather a lack of interest for LoL from other staff member that got to him as "they've been negative towards LoL". It'd be interesting to see what got him to say that about the staff in the first place....

You're missinformed if you think monte "left for lol to get some money" he primaril came to korea to cast LoL Ogn and filled in with starcraft bcause they needed english casters and he was forming a dup with Doa anyway. i doubt he cared about starcraft players giving him shit for casting starcraft for the first time.

so he casted SC2 for money only.

Well, between MonteCristo and TL, only one of them has claimed to be community-driven and not about money or business.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

i am excited for the drama this may or may not cause

also money

I've been eating popcorn and reading this thread for ten minutes now. It's great.

I'm glad to see TL doing something, for sure, I'm just hoping there'll soon be something I care about watching too. GLHF to the LoL team though.

That TL didn't liked lol is the same like a 10 year old nintendo fan meets a 10 year old playstation fan.
Both of them hate on each others console until they grew up and drink beers together playing GTA5 and after that mario galaxy. People and community's mature and learn to live along. Monte is right that from a buisness point of view it would have been better to go sooner into lol but money isn't always the decision maker.

people upset that TL didn't get into LoL sooner just means how much they value and care that TL is involved on what they love most.

Like many others in DOTA land, i dont give a flying shit about LoL due to the action of a certain peep called "Pendragon". I cant find it in me to support a game that is created by that piece of shit.

However, I do want to congrats team liquid on moving on to the moba that more people play, and hope it turns out well for them as it is still a valid business consideration
