I hope LoL get crushed by Dota 2 one day.


Dota 2 is pretty big in China right? so watch that instead?^^

Actually, China has just received its official Chinese DotA 2 client, making the Chinese playerbase rather small at the moment.

Also, the Chinese esports association (if I recall the name correctly), ACE, which is spearheaded by a World Elite-representative (the team doesn't have a DotA 2 team) has made it so that the elite Chinese teams can't compete in tournaments that have a prizepool below a certain amount of dollars, making the scene more insular and the top teams unable to compete as much as they're used to.

So Chinese dota atm is in a very weird place.

Bad games rise to be popular and celebrated while great games fall into darkness and go away forever.

I am losing faith in mankind honestly.

When talking about the future, they hope LoL will be like a professional sport to attract more investment and provide more insurance to professional players. Riot's representative said that holding global tournaments in Korea is like holding world cup in Brazil--it's crazily good. They hope regions will have more cooperation.





don't know if that comparison was well chosen if one looks at Brazilian riots concerning the world cup atm

Maybe Hybrid Proleague part deux? Sc2 + LoL? Hopefully not. xD

All in all, this sounds more like a LoL-only news item.

And here we are on TL where the majority is still unbelievable angry about lol and think it is a games for noobs.



Not at all, but if you don't play LoL it is a terrible spectator esport. Not the same with SC2.

IDK, I watched a OGN game of LoL and immediately went to download it and now I have a lot of fun playing it. It was just so crazy and interesting.

Besides, if Kespa makes a lot of money with LoL, maybe that will help relieve some of the burden on the SC2 guys.


Same here, but I did have my little brother explain things while watching because the casters don't really do a good job explaining things for noobs IMO. At least the matches I was watching.


Normally EU/NA LCS are doing a good job to explain the games for LoL newcomer. OGN is directed more towards hardcore LoL Fans.

About the Brazilian comparison I understood what they wanted to say but of the current situation over there. It wasnt the best comparison

Now Koreans will dominate another E-sport.

Now all that remains is Dota.

MVP and LG-IM is part of ESF aren't they? Why the sudden switch over to KESPA? Or am I not understanding something?

They better not exclude eSF teams like MVP if they want the full legitimacy for their pro league. MVP Ozone are just way too fucking good, stomping CJ Entus 3-0 last finals. Take that KeSPA!!

Just looked that up. So MVPs LoL team has a title sponsor while their SC2 team cant even afford to send DRG to Dreamhack. Makes me fucking sad. Also what a terrible businessman MVPs owner is.

I wonder if lol's success has to do with ANYTHING OTHER than the fact that it's free to play... fooling a bunch of kids who don't know better. Honestly can't stand the game, playing a bunch of cartoony characters on shitty graphics with no campaign and like 5 minute queue times and requirement of literally no skill at all in terms of speed and multitasking... like... why do people play this garbage. If it's gotta be team based competitive gaming, I'd even prefer FPS over this moba garbage
