If you don't know how to post in a live report thread by now, be advised: don't whine about game balance and don't bash players/casters/interviewers/staff/other posters. We are monitoring this thread closely.

Stop with the USA USA chant shit. Further offenses beyond page 493 will be met with bans. You've been warned.

what facts? that you dont like it?
The fact that it's terrible to watch unless you played the game a lot or have someone very knowledgeable to watch it with.

So many people cheering for Epik just to so it doesn't go to a game 3

MOBA's dont work as an esport imo. Long games and so little action.

That's what I'm thinking. This is my first time seeing it and it looks quite awful, don't know why anyone would want to play it or watch it.


pretty much one of the most fun games to play atm, especially if you have friends.
protip: Starcraft looks boring as fuck if you come from the FPS/ Fighting game scene

But you are not "forced" to watch it, if you don't like it.


I'm not sure at which point you're being forced to watch LoL.

hopefully IPL will listen and don't pull a LoL again!


there is more lol fans than sc2


not those that follows competitive esport.


Actually not true at all. When LoL was at Dreamhack they had over 100,000 viewers i believe, some LoL streams have had 140,000+


That's because it was advertised for all the playerbase (mostly casual) in the front page of the client.

So viewer counts supposedly no longer count if the developer behind the game actually supports their E-Sport players? (don't claim Blizzard does, why else do we have to pay for playing in other reagions and are we still asking for LAN and good ladder maps?) That was by the way an embedded stream you had to click to activate so it is not that everyone who played LoL that day got counted as a viewer.



I know not everyone playing LoL that day got counted as a viewer, but the flashy DHS banner attracted quite a bunch, enough to get 100k.

Such an awesome event having such an epic fail as deciding to show LOL for a few hours. I'm disappointed hopefully the games are worth waiting for. Its getting late in Europe.

This game mode is terrible for spectating, I agree. Dominion (a capture and hold style of gameplay, think Battlefield or Arathi Basin in WoW) is a lot better because it is faster paced.

I think the only reason people don't enjoy watching MOBA games on a stream is the first 30 minutes of farm, after everyone gets their items and levels it gets pretty exciting but it is not a quick game

Watching the graphically chaotic, basically unintelligible mess that is LoL really makes me appreciate Dustin Browder and the SC2 team. They did a fantastic job making SC2 clear and understandable. SC2 was made to be an e-sport; LoL wasn't. It shows.

Makes sense to put LoL in the prime spot, it's a more popular game with more viewers. Don't know why everyone is complaining so much, it's pretty standard for tournaments not to have other games playing during the finals.

Disrupting the sc2 tourney in such a big way just so they can pander to Riot Games is pretty sad really and shows how much they all care about esports (I love how they cast that up at us). Anyway...this Devastation stream is immense! :D

Meh can't stay awake anymore. Pretty bad decision to shove LoL in our faces when we came for SC2.
And if not the SC2 final would not have started right now.
