WoW as a spectator sport?
lol

geez, this game is exactly why I think DotA is so much better than LoL : no first blood at 11 minutes in-game, so boring
at least commentators made a good work of keeping things interesting, even if it was mainly watching people farm

Did she just asky if Flash would be good at sc2?

I know nothing about LoL, but played DotA for about 7 years. I saw a lane match-up and was thinking "Oh damn, this guy doesn't look like he has to tools to lane vs this ranged. He's going to get dominated." I then remembered hearing that you can't deny creeps. Way to take a huge element of picking and lane strategy out of the game.

AFAIK you have to get the last hit on mobs to get the XP, he hasn't been attacking that much

I'm enjoying it, but yeah it's definitely for people that have played the game.
On the other hand, if you'd never seen starcraft before it'd be pretty confusing too.

Why?
I don't like LoL I like sc2.
its 11.45 pm already and i have work 2moro
this makes no sense How does it not make sense, it's not like they decided this on the fly. They have this thing called a schedule and they are following. Stop whining all of you You know schedules are not law right? They aren't sketched in stone. Playing a game that panders to a completely different viewer base right before the damn semifinals/finals is pretty idiotic. Sure they didn't decide this on the fly...but they CAN make changes. All day yesterday and today it was LoL on stream 2 and SC2 on stream 1. No reason they can't go back to that. First off they did make changes. They put these nice interview clips and the panel with incontrol in the breaks. Also they did start some games earlier. When I tuned in to see the idra game, 2 were already played, even the schedule was to start at full hour. And honestly if they did something like that to a final, and people just tune in as the schedule says, people get really pissed off

WoW as a spectator sport? lol Exactly, but they still play it at Blizzcon and had it for several seasons at MLG.

No, you don't need to LH for XP.

This is ridiculous They're trying to show the game to a wider audience but do 0 explaining about what heroes skills do, what abilities do, they're using random acronyms with no explanation as to wtf they are
I don't understand the appeal.
|
Wow, why are they delaying SC2 for this?!
I'm EU, and have been watching this all evening, thinking I'd be able to watch even the finals. But if this goes on for an hour or whatever there's no way....annoying.

I think you don't lose gold when you die in LoL too which is bad.
