LOL fucking incontrol is hilarious
you guys are getting way too butthurt about dumb arguments about which game is better and which game is harder blah blah if its fun complex and interesting who cares

LoL is definitely casual and easy to play but so are shit like board games including chess and go which are immensely respected and complex

Both sides are at fault, as for many LoL players here it's hard to look past all the times the SC2 crowd decided to just shit on LoL and deem it a "casual game" and just talk shit over and over about it. It's why a lot of people can't accept DJWheat as well, because of maybe one or two times he decided to just take a dump all over League on a show. Inc's essentially one of the most vocal faces of SC2, and despite what he says about "never talking bad about League", he's essentially turned himself into one of the greatest targets simply because he says what he wants to say.

On the flipside, we here aren't very appreciative and there are many people who will bring up the past and random useless shit like "This guy has 0.0 achievements in his esport career (except bw) and still makes with his stupid personality a living out of esport.". Comments like these don't aid in fixing that bridge, they only aid in burning it. He's entitled to his opinion, and we are, but to bring up something that only aids in flaming the other party, then how's anyone gonna take you seriously?

But at the end of the day, no one's gonna admit they were wrong.
God Bless

He did on the EG thread. It wasn't pretty. I wish we could be more reasonable about these things, but the fact is that they weren't entirely reasonable either. And yet no one is willing to apologize and they have the thousands of viewers to hear them talk about it so that's a thing I guess.

I think he just let the ragers get to him, there were plenty of people in that thread trying to have an actual discussion but he seemed to ignore them and focus on the people that were shit-talking.


Yeah, I wish I could speak to how it must feel to be taking the shit that pro-players (and inc in particular) take day after day after day. Maybe then I wouldn't feel annoyed that he cut out when the natural forum backlash occurred. But again, it really isn't my place to say how he might feel about our reactions. Or whatever forum reactions for that matter.

Sigh. It's just unfortunate that it has to happen at all. Assertions or w/e about LoL, backlash from fans or just loud ppl, w/e, and then the pros impression that we're a bunch of rabies-ridden assholes. None of it's right and none of it's good. It's just what happens.

Well I see people who can't refrain theirselves from telling Incontrol that he is a shitty SC2 player like it has anything to do with the discussion at hand so I'm not sure we really discussed in the best way with him when he came to that thread but whatever.

Just saying, I never really liked EG nor Incontrol, but we didn't really welcomed as we should have.

for one thing, there's no need to hate on incontrol for not engaging with the lol subforum or anything. It's totally understandable (and probably advisable) for someone in his position to avoid the hell out of engaging the 'community' at large.

what we really need is some kind of video comparison to show their turnaround between the high-five incident and whatever was said on the last itg.

As far as the LoL is less complicated argument: it doesn't fly for sc2 because of the whole team aspect, yeah. But if we're talking dota 2... I mean, I certainly think the pro dota 2 scene produces much more diverse/interesting/watchable games than the LoL one just beacuse of the nature of the game. The thing is, LoL is way more consistently fun than dota 2, so it's what I play. But I'll watch a dota 2 tournament over a LoL tournament anyday.

Personal attacks are obviously not the way to go. I think when dealing with non-LoL users, taking the high road is a necessity otherwise why bother attempting to start a discussion.

As for my take, Incontrol's just another person out there who can't take some criticism. Yes, the criticism he receives is a lot of times unwarranted (especially in this context), but he's gotta be able to just look past that. He says he deleted his Reddit account because of haters, but in reality there's always gonna be haters out there. If you're a professional anything, people are gonna love you and hate you. He talks a lot about how League players are immature, but in my mind, his mindset is pretty unprofessional as well. Why can't you just embrace all the fans you have out there? You're just adding fuel to the fire by attacking back.

There were many people in that thread with some solid and fair points, yet he was able to look past all of them and pick out the ones that were intended to make him angry.

Something I've noticed on a lot of pro streams but don't understand:

They need to base, but do it in in front of tower in the middle of lane, get spell thrown at them and stay in lane anyways. Is this because a) they're lazy or b) baiting out that use of mana is "worth it"?

Whenever I need to recall because of mana or buying or how the lane is pushing I always do it in a safe place so I don't end up wasting my time being interrupted.

The one thing that bothers me about these kinds of discussions on TL outside of our subforum is that there end up being a lot of LoL players that don't post/participate on our subforum that shit-talk/flame/write poorly-thought-out responses to those threads that invite a poor impression of TL LoL. They're not active members of TL LoL, but they create a poorer impression of us because they're on TL and they play LoL.

TBH, there was shit-talking to do with such messages. He doesn't realize how stupid some of his statements were.

If he did or did not flame LoL at any point is completely irrelevant because he has 0 clue about the game so who cares in the end really about his opinion?If he wants to show genuine interest and start playing it for fun(which I find highly unlikely that he would come out into the public with it since he would just get more hate from the sc2 side) than be my guest,if not than just ignore him,he isn't a part of this community and never will be most likely.

Yes this exactly. It's quite sad because considering the amount of knowledge and quality poster in this subforum, like you Yango, I'm sure the discussion could be really fruitful.

And Roffles you are right. Sometime you got to take ten minute to explain someone what he did/think is wrong, and choose carefully your words, because one mistep is just the excuse he will needs to get the hell out of there and justify his behavior to no end.

This and a half. Anonymous forums ftw. It's not like anyone who's never been here before know who the actual community voices are.

I think it's at least worth setting the record straight that the majority of the less civil responses he picked out do not represent TL LoL in any way.

He can hate on LoL, sure, but hating on a part of TL...

No not this exactly,because it doesn't apply just to us.......have you ever read the sc2 forum?It's 10× worse than ours.

I think what Neo wants to addres is more the part where he said he felt he wasn't received well on TL LoL

I'd say if they didn't get interuppted they would have gone back and bought but since they did get stopped, they'll have to waste more time trying to recall in a safe place (far away since the enemy knows they're trying to b) they now decided "eh, okay now you'll have the potential to deny me some creeps so I guess I'll farm a bit more."

So yeah, it's a kind of laziness and if they were trying harder they would recall safer and only with purpose.

I don't follow SC2 and have no idea what incontrol does in that but when we used to play BW together he was always a good player, nice, and mannered, unlike a lot of other top foreigners. (i was bad)

Reason #numberyouthinkishighhere why Neo is awesome.

Please do! No one really got to explain to him exactly why and how we think the way they do. I don't think the majority of the subforum hates iNc so much as they are kind of annoyed by his past actions of outright slamming and mockery and feel he's back peddling now is kind of a jerk move.

I personally think he's a pretty cool guy, I'd even go so far to say I like him more then the organization that he's currently apart of. Far as I am concerned he's welcome here so long as he drops his league bashing.
