First 3 off the top of my head for AP are Cass, Viktor, and Anivia.

Grag ranks up there too.

Highest is probably Leblanc. But there arent really any super high skillcap champions mechanics wise, mostly its all about positioning.

People are too fast into thinking SC2 is dead. SC1 as a game was not as good as people think, it was a good game, but it did not had the depth it had with brood war... It's brood war that really made SC the game we all loved.
SC2 is not over yet, it's not that good of a game, but it's just not complete yet, wait for the expansion pack, the game will be bigger.

Now LoL gives a lot of things SC can't as a esport : it's a team game, team means a scene completly different. Let's take LoL actual success as a breath of fresh air considering how limited SC2 games have been until now.

pretty sure when people refer to SC1 they are 99% of the time referring to BW.

I thought it was like universally accepted about that?

Esp since no one really plays vanilla anymore

I'll admit though, id love to see SC2 die, if BW becomes semi popular again

I really like to play LoL, and even though I watch most LoL tournaments it's mostly to learn/data. unlike bw/sc2 I don't see how someone who does not play could watch it, at the highest level it's so snowball oriented it's really not that competitively interesting, at least to me.

But people are still comparing SC2 to BW, and don't know how SC1 was without BW. Just like WC3 was without The frozen throne... Most of the game blizzard released lacked depth without expansion packs.

But true it's not the right place to talk about that.

That makes me really sad, I always hoped SC2 will rise ever since Esports developed around it.

I should travel back in time and watch some BW.

Afaik there's still plenty of BW to watch.

SC2 sadly hasn't been living up to its name. It's not nearly as awesome as BW. Yes I'm stating this as if it was an objective fact.
Not even HotS can get my hopes up

I agree, there is still plenty of BW to watch, but I kind of want to experience the golden age of BW again. (Which is what I mean from my post.

Just reminds me how I totally predicted it: SC2 comes out, BW loses its appeal, SC2 disappoints, everyone is sad.

which is why Riot is so clever and LoL is so popular in Korea right now... right game and right time, oh yeah
I'm pretty sure Riot plaid tons of money to OGN. which is what is OGN needs urgently, because otherwise OGN will just die like MBC.

And that's a pretty significant difference in the policies of the companies.

Riot pays money to show their game, Blizzard wants money for it.

Besides, we know that Riot has fronted prizepools in the past. Do we have ANY proof that they are fronting OGN? Everything I have seen points towards the money coming from that German media firm.


AND GOD DAMMIT TWO_DOWN WHY ARE YOU TRASHING THIS THREAD.

Prizepools are probably not provided by Riot, most likely the German media guys are providing that cash. But it seems from the video that OGN and Riot Korea are in some sort of mutually beneficial partnership.
