I don't mind, these players definitely deserve a Winner ceremony. We have to respect their dedication and achievements.

You know that they need to set up the SC2 gear? So they'll use that 15 min to do the LoL Interviews.

Why do you guys hate any game not called Sc2? I don't get it.

They have the winner ceremony next because they know if they wait until after SC2 no one would watch it because no one cares.

120K viewers is why they are doing a ceremony.. You'd want the same thing if it was SC2. Don't play the game, or the fans, blame the Organizers.

It's harder to understand what's going on and who's winning in those games. In starcraft the audience can see someone is winning because they have 30 tanks while the other guy has 4 tanks, in dota the winning team has some extra gold and a few more little icons in the inventory screen.


That's such an incredibly biased comparison that you should be smacked across the face for being so stupid.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

For a game that has so many players and viewers online, LoL doesn't seem to pull in the live crowds at all. Not that I've noticed anyway, were there a lot of people there cheering for LoL?

I played Dota and wasn't very good, didn't really think it was interesting to watch at all mainly because I didn't understand it too much. Lol looks even more hard to follow because of the excessive use of colour and just doesn't seem to make sense. SC1 and SC2 are the only games I know where someone that doesn't even play RTS's watch. My friend doesn't have either game and finds both amazing spectator sports, and even though he lacks basic knowledge of the game. Stuff like "he is using the banelings to try and take out the marines so the mutas can clean up the rest" is far more simple than whatever complicated stuff is going on the Lol stream.

I've watched all the gsls and a lot of foreign tournaments and I can safely say that no game has been as awesome and exciting to watch as the first game between EHOME and Na'Vi for the grand finals, maybe that game on crossfire between nestea and sc came close but that's it.


It's not that Dota-like games are boring to watch.

It's that LoL is boring to watch. They made it more flashy (in a bad to watch way) and removed all the skill required. Navi against Ehome was amazing.
Bug Fixes Fixed an issue where, when facing a SlayerS terran, completing a hatchery would cause a medivac and 8 marines to randomly spawn nearby and attack it.

Lot of people are intolerant and not open-minded in pretty much anything, not just games. However I though the TL community would be smarter than that.
