At any point of IEM Season 6 Championship, if you think of an interesting byline, please drop a sentence in the Pro Scene thread. At the end of the month, I'll catalogue the results of Hannover but also any interesting facts or events that happen over the course of the tournament. Thanks. Neo, 06.03.2012 |

Almost every european team bans rammus.
As For Cassio, Cassio is one of the AP's Alex Ich can't really play and she destroys a lot of his champions (eg Mordekaiser), so it's quite expected.

Considering a game can last for 60min ez, thats a possible 5hour finals. Who in their right mind is gonna watch that for 5hours?

Looks like an M5 vs Dignitas Finals with M5 winning;
|
Altho I certainly hope that's what's going to happen, CLG looked pretty strong and I wouldnt be surprised if they gave M5 a tough time.

The issue is more that it could hold up the main stage for a long time.

Cant blame a guy for being fake when someone shoves a mic in your face after losing a championship tournament. Its just a way to get a bigger fanbase to get more revenue for his stream and adds on his website.
He is now making like 10k euro a month only by playing a game and that is how he can pay for his family. I think he got the biggest income and it doesnt suprise when his parents arnt working anymore because they are lazy as fuck in Spain.
His true ego is so bad and obnoxious i just cant those kind of players. That are faking other people and recieve money for that, but i cant care much about it but i fucking hate the even more fake actions on lan and then also the people who are trying to defend him.

cant imagine how big the viewer count would be if m5 vs clg was the finals.
|
How ARE the viewer numbers doing? I'm just getting into LoL. Heard the scene is pretty big!
|
uh 150 - 170k ish, much more once the finals will be going . Yesterday wasn't that big because of the lackluster matchups and the timing not being optimal.
Today should be really really really good though
(Me talking in Australian time btw)

I think we've consistently reached ~120k on the main stream for all 3 nights so far. Really hoping we'll get >170k for this match.
|
So are those numbers growth or decline within the scene?

extreme growth
It is quite rare for a major tournament to NOT break 100k anymore (no matter what time the tournament is)
Hannover is more catered towards the live fans then the stream (hence the weird hours)

The only reason is because the game is free, I work at an internet cafe and everyone here plays League of Legends (all of them lvl 30), all of these gamers were casual gamers, this is the first game they play more seriously (almost all of the never knew DOTA btw).
I can assure none of these people will ever know LoL if the game wasn't free, like HoN before. I know this because here we had bring good games but they havent touched them at all (like SC2 or BF:BC2) prefering free games like Flyff O.o (except for L4D). I also know other people who play a lot LoL, they were console gamers.

If M5 vs LI7 was actually at a decent time tomorrow we would probably see 200K+. As is, 3am Eastern does not ideal lol watching make.
|
Aren't they rebroadcasting them though at better times? Because I would LOVE to watch these games tomorrow.
|
It's interesting that the rebroadcast usually has like 100k+ viewers lol
