And even on TL we have players like Shake that have that high-level understanding and STILL value the emotional investment in a team they care about over seeing top level play.

That means you want to have an emotional connection to the media at hand for maximum impact (just like how you want to connect with the characters of a book or movie). Feeling the highs as your team wins, or the sad swings when they lose; it makes the experience more intense. Exactly. If everyone was rooting for winners, last year everyone would be a Barcelona fan, this year everyone would be a Chelsea fan. Yet, why are so many ppl Mourinho fans if he doesnt win the biggest league since 04? | ||

I would assume the Champions League but Mourinho won that in 2010 with Inter. | ||

But this isn't going to hold to communities that have lower average skill level, where the majority of viewers don't appreciate the nuances. And even on TL we have players like Shake that have that high-level understanding and STILL value the emotional investment in a team they care about over seeing top level play. Im not saying I dont enjoy seeing them, I'm watching it right now. I just dont enjoy as much. Good teamfights still get the adrenaline pumping, but at the end of the game I just wont care who won. | ||
