EPTWhile I can't think of anything I can contribute right now to TL LoL, you raise a good point that it's up to us to make our sub-forum everything it can be (and maybe more than that). I'll give this some more thought.

Yeah I completly agree, it's the only forum where I can ask dumb question without being instantly flamed. LoL is a nice game, but its community is full of kids. I just hope NeoIllusions doesn't exhaust himself for our pleasure, if I can help in anything I will do it considering the little time I can give.

China has always been kinda of secluded from the rest of the e-sport world, in all games. SC1, WC3, Dota, even SC2, everytime China has its own little eco system. | ||

That isn't even close to some mid-level LoL tourney. LoL can pull like 200K-300K easily. | ||

So I would estimate all languages streams is around 70K at most. That isn't even close to some mid-level LoL tourney. LoL can pull like 200K-300K easily. You can also spectate in-game and listen to commentary from in-game options. So it's not a full figure. | ||

Nearly 90-120k average viewers in day1 and day2 of NA Regionals. A little over 800k unique viewers for day2 as well. | ||

But I don't think the viewers from Dota clients can double the 70K figure, why you want to fire a client just to watch a game? I'd watch it on own3d or twitch.tv as what I am doing right now since I want to see give Dota 2 another chance to impress me, past experiences were not that good. | ||

There were 69,659 people watching in-game CLG v M5 during group stages which was one of the most viewed games. And also, it's likely the semifinals and finals will have more viewers than group stage matches. Also, group stages matches were played concurrently so hard to say what the combined figure at any point in time was until Valve says so. DotaTV is nice because you can spectate the game and control the camera yourself while having options to choose from different commentators for audio or disable commentary. You can also choose to set a camera lock to what a commentator is seeing if you're lazy. | ||

I am seriously trying to get into Dota 2 and see how good it is. Got a beta a few months ago but nothing seems special about Dota 2 after 20 games or so. I was playing LoL most of the time though. | ||

To me, it looks like a big company throwing money at a problem. Like Blizzard did with diablo 3 and behold the soulless abomination they spawned. Of course there's the established competitive community... but isn't that the DOTA 1 community? incidentally, what happened to that dota lawsuit between blizzard and valve? gl with the new section. | ||

To me, it looks like a big company throwing money at a problem. isnt that what riot is doing with LoL. paid money to MLG, IEM and IPL to have LoL in their leagues and then also have a clause that forbids them from allowing any other moba game on their league.
