I'm gonna be honest, I'm pretty skeptical that Idra will devote any real effort to LoL. It'll be hard for him to catch up, he isn't a team player, and I dunno if he could get good enough to create a stream that's interesting (not to mention Riot won't have any issues banning him for raging).

I'm not even gonna entertain the idea of him becoming an LCS player as I can't see it happening but maybe he could become a popular streaming guy.

If Destiny can entertain fans with League, IdrA can do just as easily.

People say dumb shit, especially Idra. There's so much money and viewership potential in league. I just feel like someone who was/is an SC2 pro would be better suited staying in SC2 than learning a brand new game just so you can be a streamer since the likelihood of Idra becoming a pro in League is super low.

Idra won't get shit from me if he becomes a full time League player. People's opinions on shit can change.

IdrA also said that he's not going to play LoL competitively, he's just doing in for fun right now. He also though that the teamplay part of the game was interesting, since he had never played a team game before, and mentioned that while mechanically easy (compared to bw/sc2), since you're playing against other players, you will never play perfectly.

He said he'd consider playing it with fans on his stream, if that was what his fans wanted.

Problem is most of his fans are Sc2 fans. Some might play LoL though.

I feel like we're at the same point BW was when SC2 came out and people were saying how the BW pros should switch over asap and others were defending that BW was still making them money and there was no reason to take the risk. But instead they came late to the party and lost out on a great opportunity.

Similarly, there are some great players in SC, a game less popular than LoL. Idra was very mechanically sound. I'm sure he could pull an Alex Ich and have like 400 farm in 35 minutes.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Its an extremely strong change and will probably bring her back into the spotlight. Not many good pro Cass players though (lots of failed flash ults in memory).

Will that make muramana do lots of damage? It seems like it would.

After EG picked up CLG.eu he said on some SC2 show (I think the one with djWheat, idk, I don't pay much attention to SC2) that he had played several games of League and thought it was a fun game but didn't feel like he owed an apology for previous comments on League because they were true (this is me recalling what he said though, I think he also claimed that the only negative thing he said about league was that it was an easier game). Geoff also said, I believe in that same interview thing, that he liked Riot's approach a lot more than Blizzard and thought they were a much better company for eSports. So there's that.

Gotta re-iterate again that this is just straight from memory from an interview I watched months ago so I may be a bit off on what exactly he said but that was the general jist of it.

Haha no I'm aware of the comments and stuff but I'm saying I have yet to SEE him play league. The difference here being SEE, especially if his (IdrA's) fans who were so sad to see him get released recently SEE him playing LoL. I just think it's a little different than them commenting one way or another, that's all.

Idra would get a lot more viewers than Destiny. It's not even close.

His SC2 fans would follow him and even people who dislike League and Idra will watch to just see him in a team aspect game, wanting to see him lose his shit over teammates doing badly. He would also gain a ton of new League fans who just want to see a popular SC2 guy rage a lot on teammates and say shit like he hopes his support gets cancer.

I am sure Idra will have quite alot of viewers playing LOL compare to SC2. I mean, at his peak playing SC2, he has like 4-6k viewers which is huge for SC2. Currently he has more like 2k-3k if he plays SC2 or even less after being dropped by EG.
I would imagine, with his unique personality he would score 3-5K viewers in no time playing league.

You also have to consider the people who would actually watch him play it so they can spam in chat all the time about how easy the game is. I think that would actually be a considerable amount of his audience in the early going.
