I've never played BW but I can do some difficult stuff in fighting games, am I mechanics?
Americans don't like to use unblockables, it is considered not honest. You press a button at the wrong time and hit the other person, you are random, not a top player. You DP Sim's far fierce, it is random and not honest.

BW was too insane, most people couldn't even start to play it propperly because it was so demanding. When people talks about lol mechanics it saddens me inside, I think there is value in big outplays and all that, but the terminology, mechanics, that's not the mechanics I know.

i think saint had a point where he said league wasn't demanding enough for age to matter a large amount for the players

League is more demanding precisely because the mechanical ceiling is lower compared to other games. You can reasonably expect top players to -always- do everything almost perfectly, so any mistake you make puts you behind irrecoverably (see: Faker faceplanting into the wall at MSI lomo). In comparison, in Brood War, you expect people to be making mistakes throughout the game so any single mistake isn't as punishing.

In that sense League is more demanding of perfection, which makes it more punishing.

Blitzcrank requires the most mechanics cause he's a robot

maybe but i think it is less of a game where you get bad simply because you get older

Hiemer is most mechanics because he is one in a skin

Wouldn't he require only one mechanic then?

then this also makes SC2 more demanding than BW because once you lost combat, you need miracles to come back in certain matchups.
If you don't know what the fuck you are doing, how are your enemies supposed to know what the fuck you are doing. - imaqtpie on NA teams at Worlds.

The word you're looking for is 'unforgiving'. League is pretty unforgiving, but not very mechanically demanding.

I think it's marginally more complex than that.

A single small mistake will make a bad thing happen, and in this way I think league is demanding of perfection.
But the bad thing that happens isn't usually a massive deal in most games, and in this way I think league is decently forgiving.

In like tic-tac-toe if you make a small mistake a bad thing happens, and you typically lose immediately since there's little in the way of comeback opportunity relative to league.
