The discrepancy is ridiculous, a couple months ago these two player played and 1 won 50k... Thank Blizzard and their 5k tournament restrictions and generally not giving a fuck about things that don't make them profit. | ||

Legitimises the whole concept of competitive video gaming even further in the mainstream. Its all good! I dont really care about LoL one way or the other, BUT when it's crappy net code starts continuously crashing and causes me to wait for an eternity for MC v Puma games, well that's when I get pissed and start to h8. | ||

LoL has a huge playerbase so there are a lot of people tuning into the matches. Don't dismiss it simply because it isn't as spectator friendly as sc2 as moba is quite possibly the second best games format for spectating. I don't even play the game but I can see it being more interesting than say CS for a viewer. | ||

This again? All riot does is put a giant link in their client that says "watch this event here" you click it, and it opens your webpage to it. Guess what blizzard does? for every MLG etc they put a link to the tournament in the client as well. | ||
