Of all the 2k players we have and have formed teams, no one takes it even remotely seriously or tries to compete in any of the weekly tourneys. If I were good enough I'd be doing this constantly. As for the DotA coverage, good on them. Kinda makes me sad that it's not us, of course, but it is great to see TL finally branching out to other games beyond strictly SC2/BW. (I also kind of wonder if it's partially because of the general animosity a lot of SC2 players seem to have toward LoL and whether they were worried about an uproar on the site?) Anyway, maybe one day we'll be up there, especially if we keep getting such good writeups from JBright/MB/Neo and the few mods we have keep trying to fight for us. If there's anything we can do to make it a reality someday, don't hesitate to let us know! TL LoL hwaiting! Don't say, "If I were good enough." Make a team and do it anyway. You can learn mechanics and individual decision making at the same time you learn team coordination and communication. You will hone your individual skills faster when you have a team to call you out on your mistakes. | ||

Time will tell how it goes but I definitely see it getting the same attention soon. I think this will be a lot of people in TL LoL. Disappointing but we move on. We understand and we'll be better. | ||

FOR YOUR INFORMATION SIR, I already have a team but they're lazy and we don't practice. I should have gotten with one of the LP crew/teams before the channel started to die... | ||

Really disappointing, but what can we do... I would have like to see both or neither really. Favoritism is never good. | ||

I agree with WaveOfShadow here. TL B's players have been very very active, like Soniv being the extremely vocal Viktor advocate, but if they had perhaps become their own team and queued and been more visible as a team rather than a conglomerate of casual players, things may have been different. Then again, they are casual players and volunteers, so no hard feelings. I am going to have to learn a new game because of them though. | ||

Why do you have to learn a new game? I am so confused. | ||

but also because its a game that has captured the same feeling I have for sc2, I love the game, it isn't perfect, but riot is doing a damn good job promoting the game in Korea. | ||

Also just compare old broodwar forum to sc2 one currently and you'll see why you shouldn't really be butthurt or w/e ^^.I have yet to see a big internet community which I actually like. | ||

Congrats and good luck Leigh "Deman" Smith I can't comment on the rest, but I'll second this. When I started following LoL, I looked around for websites similar to TL that gave LoL coverage, and found them wanting. solomid.net is great for guides and streams, but the community is shit, and there's rarely any news coverage. TL's way better for that, even with just a subforum devoted to the game. Generating page views has never been the goal of TL, so I understand the choice to cover a game that the decision makers care about. I just really wish there was a website where the kind of coverage and analysis TL gives us for SC2 would be given to LoL. And while I'm here, super big thanks to Neo and all the other authors who make this forum as good as it is! TL is the best place to watch LoL on the internets. ^_^ | ||

But then again you realize that TL's shifting more internationally. So yeah, even though League is bigger in Korea, this TL ain't the same as it was in years past. | ||

Honestly if one thing comes from the change I hope it makes DotA 2 discussion more organized and good information easier to find on our site. Before I had a hard time finding things I wanted and the DotA 2 GD thread was pretty much all fluff. | ||

LoL is more more popualr and has a better community than DOTA2, Dota2 picked up a lot of the HoN community, which as we know, is a heap of crap. | ||
