I don't care that Dignitas won or that CDE doesn't get to go to Korea, but I'm almost positive that there's major corruption going on because the whole situation doesn't make a dick of sense unless money was passed on underhandedly. http://na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=1435079 Those are my thoughts on the whole situation Incompetence and corruption were the exact two words I used as well lol. Listening to SotL is hilarious. "Well WCG Canada finals submited ONE to zero score and ONE post-game screenshot of ONE game, so it can be misinterpreted that they won the second series 2-0. We just want to keep it consistent so we're going to change both the USA and Canada finals." | ||

Starcraft was made for people who sit in a base with 10 workers, build a gateway and 4 photon cannons and end with 3 carriers and a dark archon. There wasn't anyone else to make it for. You can't compare the design of BW with the design of LoL. Games like SC:BW, Quake and CS were basicly designed by nerds who had great ideas, wanted to put them into a game and make money with that. Games like SC2, LoL, Dota 2 are games designed by the same people with almost 15 years more experience. Those former nerds are now businessmen and women and ask "How can we maximize profit?" before "How can we create the next e-sport?" The whole fucking concept of LoL (hint: Microtransactions) is there to maximize profits. It just comes along with that that e.g. new champion releases have the same idea in mind. No one wants to make "innovating champions" or "underpowered with a high skill ceiling" stuff. If it sells, it's good. If it doesn't it's bad. That's all there is to it imo. | ||

The other 10% are solved if you assume you're better than the people you're playing with. | ||

I didn't buy graves even if he seemed lots of fun and strong . Was expecting Riot to nerf him way harder. Judging from their few last patch nerf strategy they have picked a more carefull aprouch to nerfs in a good way . I would call it the : Wolf is fed and sheeps still alive Comunity is happy that ''OP'' champs get nerfed , but actualy champs get slightly adjusted and still rape poor players . Only now they don't blame Riot or Champ since '' Champ X got nerfed .. so this must be my own foult finaly'' Gunblade was nerfed and still Akali stomps ppl , but now no1 QQ since Riot did ''nerf'' her  Same goes for Lee Sin ... slight tweeks , yet he still can wreck from jungle. TLDR : I would prefere Riot to buff weeker end to match top picks or continue the way the do atm with slight tweeks not nerfs The gunblade nerf didn't hit akali that much, but if you look at the item nerf, it completely crippled Jax, it also nerfed a lot of other hybrid champions. IMO akali is much more AP based than AD based in the hybrid category, the bonus AD that gunblade was a nifty thing for akali to have, not a necessary thing. That's why. | ||

But, just because that's the case it doesn't mean there's no individual skill differential between LoL and Dota. I didnt say anything like theres no skill differential. I said its irrelevant, ALL champions are easy. Some easier than others, but none hard. | ||

I'm pretty sure his sponsers (assuming they still have any) don't exactly like that he can't play. I want to say he's just banned from posting on forums, although I can't confirm or deny that part. I know he was spamming threads about the drama and then they stopped and other people started complaining about Reginald and a bunch of other people being banned cause Riot cannot man up and admit their mistake. It was something linked in the old GD topic, but I don't remember how far back it was or who posted it. | ||

This is partly because the game has a very very low mechanical skill ceiling. Combining mechanical dominance with strategy is a different story. I think everyone can agree that LoL is much much more about your decisive ability than anything else. I think the argument people have is that they wish LoL rewarded mechanical skill more than it does. As someone who likes twitch gameplay, I agree. LoL simply does not offer enough technical mechanics. The ones that do exist aren't appealing to me- I'd rather have more stuff to click on and tweak out with. This is why I enjoy playing characters with skillshots or highlyspammable abilities. Don't you feel slow playing Jarman Mogwai? Don't you wish you could wavedash all over the place? What if you could L-cancel your autoattack? Imagine if such mechanics existed in LoL: you'd find that technical skill would become a much much much bigger factor in the outcome of a game than it does now. A lot of TL-folk would skyrocket in ELO because of our technical abilities. A lot of nubs with inflated ELO would drop like a rock. People with poor strategy, but high technical ability would be promoted. This is a fundamentally flawed outlook on "how you should be able to win." Unfortunately, many of the "top tier" competitive eSports games have defined pro players as those who can abuse flaws in the game engine or bugs in certain mechanics (muta-stacking and wavedashing for example) so this has sort of become what is expected for games to be competetive and this is just such a poor way to judge how good someone is at what is supposed to be a Strategy game (RTS, MOBAs and Fighting games are all games about strategy in one form or another). In a MOBA for example, the game shouldn't be won because of some arbitrary mechanical requirement (animation cancelling, denying, etc) but how your teamwork, positioning, timing, map awareness, map control, and other "game-sense" related skills stand up to your opponents. This form of strategy goes far beyond in-game moments, and extends even to champion and summoner spell selection, the ability to lane-switch, and many other aspects of the game, where as pure technical skill hardly reaches past the mouse and keyboard. Of course, I am not trying to imply that a game should "do everything" for the players or that there should be no way for players to demonstrate their mechanical prowess, merely that a strategy-based game should be more about a player's (or team's) strategical ability, not their mastery of keyboard and mouse. | ||
