Poland>Sweden right now ?

It's hard to say who's better between Naniwa and Mana
I would say ThorZaIN > Tarson, Nerchio > MorroW & Haypro, but SjoW > DieStar


you can forget people like haypro and sjow to be honest and morrow isnt a 3 top zerg in europe as well.
you gotta compare each of them eachother so im sure poland is better


Wait what? You can forget Sjow for some reason? I don't understand your reasoning at all.

sjow is FAR away from being a decent player. he cant multitask for S**T. he just won because terran was OP and everyone was bad. nowadays skill actually matters much more than back then. you cant just win with a decently executed strategy.


Sjow did pretty decently at Assembly, losing to Mana, but beating TLO, Adelscott and Happy. At Anaheim he beat Sheth, Cruncher, and Haypro, losing to Huk. How does any of these recent results mean that Sjow is bad?


well 100020 americans and 9 europeans so of course you always look good and better as well
beating tlo,adel and happy..emm ye... doesnt make him better than the best polish players.
but i bet 100 euros that at least someone from sweden will try to defend it


No I was comparing him to DieStar lol

Anyway Naniwa beat both Tarson and Nerchio offline recently and MaNa hasn't played vs Naniwa in a while


At least 1 hero in sweden left;)

Is Dota 2 better to spectate/understand for complete nubs than LoL?

I want to learn a bit more about one or the other this week, but if Dota is easier I'll duck out and prep some dinner before Dota comes on.

I have to say, it's a little surprising that HuK went 1-6 but it's not really surprising that he didn't advance. He's had a rough month with travel and team changes and all that.

No, LOL is much simpler, easier to learn. DOTA teams actually utilize complicated strategies. If you are a complete noob, LOL is your game.

Wow, those Gunnar optics glasses are expensive ;o.
I didn\t expect that, are they actually useful?

In theory yes but to be honest if you're having problems with your eyes from playing too much its probably an issue with your eyes being strained, which is fixed by proper glasses, and not with making the screen less bright.

I wear glasses when I read or spend long periods on the computer (cheaper ones from an actual optician) because my eyes can become strained if I spend too long reading or staring at a monitor and I would say its not worth buying something like this unless you notice problems, and if you do notice problems go to an optician to get a diagnosis instead of blindly buying a designer set of yellow glasses.

So... what did IdrA exactly said about MaNa that makes everything mad? I missed the fuss about it. Not to start an argument or something, i'm just interested. Or a source where the bashing can be found.

Complete generalizations, LoL is not for 'complete noobs"- it's just a different and, yes, somewhat simpler game.

That doesn't mean it's just for 'noobs'. Playing it at the top level is still a very, very, difficult and taxing thing to do.

I can't remember anyone he's called good tbh, so no real news. He called ret really good, probably because he's another zerg like him that enjoys making drones. He even called NesTea bad.

Not true at all and I don't see why people say this. Both games are 100% different. Play both.

It was last game of bo5, and first: after superb stupid A-move with lings/roahces into whole protoss army + FF , he typed: "its f******* joke" - or something like this, and second: then a lot Mana Stalkers totaly killed his last army or roaches at this natural, he typed "f*** you".

Mana is the most maner game from Bw and SC2, so I don't see a point to BM him ,but well Idra is Idra.

Is it just me, or does HuK have a really bad track record with IEM events?

I don't think I can remember him ever getting out of groups...
