You can if you like, however it is possible to acquire all the same things just by playing the game normally. All spending real life money does is allow you to have a different skin to make you feel special. <3 feeling special. | ||

In BW there is just soo much that you can be good at where in LoL all the mechanics are learned incredibly fast and have a low skill cap. It'll be interesting to see if the game evolves at all in the next couple years. | ||

However, DotA changed a lot in its gameplay over the many years. I believe LoL will stay on the radar for a while as long as Riot keeps up with patches and tweaking numbers (Like blue buff is quite OP atm). It will keep the game fresh and teams trying different strategies to shift the metagame. | ||

You don't need to be the "best" or "perfect" in skill....you just need to be better than your opponents. | ||

The original Korean article starts out with "'League of Legend' by opening official and regular e-sports tournament challenges for the 1st spot on game market. Including strong support from the TV game channels, there is an increasing outlook that the future of the national e-sport growth lies in 'League of Legend' instead of 'Starcraft 2'". Kotaku converts it into "League of Legends (LoL) has made its way to the top spot in e-sports tournaments, replacing StarCraft II." Another random guy decides to call it "LoL takes #1 E-sport spot in Korea".  Honestly the link isn't saying anything new except what we already knew (Starcraft 2 is failing at Korea, OGN has hosted regular LoL tournament and is starting to push for it hard), so what the article does is just to provide an opinionated piece - but stating the obvious? - where everyone can fight over. While I understand that wanting the game you like to succeed, amount of conflict going over there is really bad... Ah well, I remember people often saying SC3 will do the same thing to what SC2 eventually did to BW, and I'm actually glad LoL made this scenario occur much faster by taking the formers place.  Sweet sweet justice.Also please do not let the cacophony over there give you misimpression about our community in general, we Brood war community generally show more restraint (such as in this thread, and here if you ignore random new users) and that thread only highlights the difference. | ||

That was what the community was like when I kept coming to read up on TL, and part of why I grew to like BW so much. Glad to see some people like that are still around. | ||

too bad that it became a huge flame fest. normally the tl.net moderators do an exceptional job keeping flaming and bashing to a minimum, but i can't stop thinking that some have a blind spot when the flaming occurs against lol. how else can you explain that a post like this doesn't even get a warning: On March 15 2012 01:08 red_b wrote: the amount of butthurt from LoL players is fantastic. the game is easy and the people who play it are garbage. ... | ||

Firstly, Its an online F2P game which is very popular in Korea. Secondly, It requires skills to be good at pro level. If you watch some Koreans LoL matches you may have noticed that some of the players ultilize their champions much more than Western progamers. | ||
