Get good enough that you trash your opponent before you attract the jungler's attention, or even enough that he never feels too needed there. Oh, and buy a sightstone when you can, so you won't get ganked anyway.

It might be an academy, but who's going to teach them? What resources to they even have for reference material?

Who came out of their SC2 Academy?

SC2 has much more material to work with, the theory is understood, and I feel like a coach can be more successful because you already have frameworks for what you want to be achieving, theory you want to teach, replays to utilise, etc. I'm not sure it's as possible in LoL.

i wanted an answer not a scolding and someone telling me "get better" because that doesn't change the nature of the lane any. :/ i don't understand how those lanes are fun. that is why i brought it here. It's not a QQ but a question. What makes those lanes fun? I see people call top and mid more than anything, but when i get put in the roles i feel like my time is being wasted. support waaay more fun.

honestly if a guy I had never heard of came in here and said that they might have gotten a real answer but you've made so many anti lol and generally trolly comments that I can't see how anyone wouldn't just take it as an lol rip

that said if you hate mid/top just ask for other shit, they are the most popular by far I doubt you'd be "forced" to play mid/top in more than 5% of your games.

Matchups. The feeling of being able to crush your opponent 1v1, and if good enough, being able to 1v2 the opponent and the jungle. It's not for everyone, but I enjoy it because of the matchup variety and all of the different champs I can play there.

I guess they would need a partnership with a pro team since they don't have one of their own yet. Maybe they can work with the MVP teams since the two orgs are familiar with each other.

gosuuser and sasquatch. Which are the "better NA" players, not that it means much, but it's still fostering NA talent.

You do understand you asked a rhetorical question right?

it's only rhetorical if i mean it as one. i was asking how someone can find it fun and i wanted responses. Telling someone they said a rhetorical question is like telling someone they were sarcastic. it's the intent that matters. and yeah intent sucks via text.

That... would be quite interesting! Hm.


Hm. I've not heard of them but I don't follow SC2 much any more.

I applaud fostering talent, I just wonder how effective it will be given how under developed LoL is, analytics-wise. The closest we have to things like the Liquipedia Strategy section or the TLFE is what we've done here in our TL articles. Unless I guess coL is ok with their LoL team doing nothing but Double AP-Skarner, low economy and Triple Teleport Promote. That would be kinda cool actually lol.
