I don't get it. Perhaps it's because this finals was meant to start 2 hours ago and in Australia instead of the finals starting at 12pm and going until ~3am, it is starting at 2am and finishing ~5am. That and the delay is directly attributable to LoL's networking problems. | ||

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. Are you SERIOUSLY trying to say that LoL is bad to watch because it's complicated whereas BW and SC2 are simple? No one that doesn't at least understand the subtleties of BW or SC2 would ever enjoy watching the fully. No fucking wonder people always say shit like, "oh BW is boring because it's the same builds all the time" or something stupid like that. Watching SC without understanding it through playing and studying is always going to get boring superfast because all you're going to be looking are at the stuff that makes you "ooh" and "ahh". So goddamned asinine. | ||

For the past few months I get nothing but cleaning product commercials for the 40 year old stay at home mom/dad. If I'm going to be watching commercials. can't it be for something that I actually find interesting and might buy? Would you prefer some American commercials? I think not : / | ||

1.5 mil concurrent viewers on the first day kinda proves that point. | ||

In other words, would LoL be able to feature in their own tournament and get the numbers they have been claiming? Just asking as I'm curious and not a Mobaa player/spectator. | ||
