Doesn't change the fact that some SC2 players are rather obsessive about SC2 being the game to make worldwide Korean-level eSports a reality, and bristle at the merest suggestion that another game might also make a contribution.

LoL isn't more popular as an esport, but I believe more people play LoL than SC2 overall.

When it's a 1v2 lane you normally want to actually gank sooner than lvl 4. When jungle is lvl 3 the 2 will generally be lvl 2 with your solo just turning 2-3, depending, and they'll be pushed. It's that timeframe where your gank will be strongest. If you do it successfully it basically means free kills from now on and even though they can destroy your tower still if you stop ganking (usually) it means you can farm enemy top for kills.

This is talking about the low level shit. You're not going to see a no jungle in a real high level game. So don't pull that bs card of "but they just wouldn't...." No, they WILL, because they're BAD, and that's why they have no jungler lol. So it's a good guideline to go by.

I remember during some games some TL B members + random TLers used to play and we had a lux vs mundo + something else, not entirely sure. I ganked and together as amumu and we in total had 6 kills top before I even bothered to go to our bottom lane that was also losing. Ganked down there got us a kill too + tower + drag cause I as so fed. You just need to abuse the lvl advantage because levels mean so much early on. From there is snowballs.

Jesus christ, the LoL at ESL thread is a complete fuckfest of SC2 kids who can't accept that there's a game more popular than Starcraft.

Tbh there are idiots on both sides. The people thinking that the moment that there will be 400 different casters out there putting up content on a daily basis getting 900k hits on a lol video will never happen again is equally idiotic.

Its the fact that riot actively promotes their tournament, even putting in a link to stream inside their own game client.

Blizzard fails at this part or we'd see better numbers imo.

I guess it's hard to judge which game is more popular, but you get the gist.

What irks me is that these are the same people who want for eSports to grow, yet they keep saying casual games like LoL are retarded and not good for the development of eSports, when I think it's really just about the masses.

I don't see why the inclusion of an incredibly popular game is a bad thing for the development of eSports.

You're probably dealing with 15 year olds who want to sound smart but have no clue what they're talking about so......

Have you ever actually played SC2? There ARE tournament links in the client.

Well in that case they clearly failed because ive never seen a stream link the moment i open up the sc2 client.

I have a challenge for you. You can do anything afterwards but rush Malady before boots.

Can you win even with that?
