It's sadly just a fact that people are less engaged when they lack an emotional connection to the players or teams involved. As Yango has said, the real challenge to LoL is if Koreans/Other Asians take over everything and make it harder for people to want to care. I mean, look at MLG SC2. There's only been one foreign winner of an MLG ever since the Koreans arrived (HuK) and one other Finals with a Foreigner (Naniwa). Ever since 2012, no foreigner has made it to the Finals at all.

It's just how it works, same reason why americans don't care about soccer, cricket, etc etc. anything a countries not good at, they're just not gunna care as much.

It's the nature of humans.

The worst thing about MLG stream is getting ads in the middle of the game if my internet goes out or I have to refresh the stream.

Just checked the MLG stats. As I suspected, I was slightly wrong. But my point stands. Season 3 is going to be really important for League of Legends.

I think there is still hope though. I mean, look at all the teams that came out of no where in Season 2 (M5, CLG.eu, etc.) There's still a fighting chance. But will people take that chance? I wonder.

Didn't keep an eye on the viewership throughout the tournament, did it drop after NA teams were eliminated?

But many people are actually watching SC2. And they know it's going to be an all Korean Championship bracket before they get there.

It's probably a safe bet that CLGeu and M5 will at least keep up and give the Koreans and Chinese teams a challenge at LANs.

The US teams gonna have to have a major change in the way they approach the game to keep up with the Asian teams.

Cpt Jack def not best AD in the world. Pretty darn good but overrated slightly.
As far as not caring about finals between 2 KR teams, it's hard to accept for white people that for the most part, they're not the best at something. For the record, I'm white and gladly embrace asian overlords in video games. I bet if there was a chinese NHL, they'd be sour as hell if all the north americans came and smacked them around for fun

stinger jax! i saw some people talking about that in the jax thread the other day and I thought it was kinda troll haha. I think it is mostly because of zil ult, though (meaning he doesn't need GA as badly)
