MLG cause IEM just had reapers... reapers.... reapers.... what is that? A bird! A plan! A squirrel! No its a Reaper!!!

wait... why are we cheering for the one that has been making our days boring same old same old again?

Thats how I felt during IEM. I actually stopped watching after half of the vods of just seeing reapers being used. Plus I <3 HD and Husky

IEM by far. I thought the MLG games were not nearly as exciting.
Shorts down shorts up, BOOM, just like that.

Games-wise IEM probably took the day, but I voted MLG - I really love the format they've got going, plus the atmosphere really helps.

I don't see what the appeal of skinny nerds looking awkward next to paid models in short shorts feigning interest in the event is, but to each their own I guess.

IEM had better players and less toss. MLG was better hosted, but there was a lot of downtime. So I voted IEM.

I liked IEM because it seemed so much more global.

Not MLG's fault in any way, but I had to turn the stream off once lastshadow got eliminated. No way was I going to watch 10+ PvP matches in a row.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

I voted IEM:

1. Videos were in regular Flash
2. Videos were made immediately available for those who didn't catch live casts
3. IEM announcer switched from talking English to shouting in German (gave me a laugh each time)

I'm gonna have to say IEM only because of NaDa vs TLO. That was just amazing to be able to see and it just edged out MLG.

MLG was fucking amazing as well though, and probably had the better quality games IMO.

an interesting poll for once. i'm going to say IEM because it was international and it was for the most part very good.

IEM had better players and games then MLG... and MLG has got the reputation of "E-Sports for 12 year-olds" so IEM obviously wins.

I loved MLG but I feel IEM had more of the korean booth games atmosphere which I liked very much :o
Also it had more familiar players to mee as they were a lot more europeans

oh wow


I should have been more specific. It had MORE Day9 and less what I would call "filler" casters. Like personally I find HD a bit hard to listen to.


My list goes Husky < HD < That one guy who looked like Sean < Day[9] < BiggerT

you can't beat BiggerT


lawl... BiggerT ftw.

edit: on topic... IEM had better games and was a lot more exciting ... idk why, but it just was
