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. The fact it's aired on sc2 stream as well and sc is scheduled later just for this? If you find sc2 boring or anything at an event, then u just switch back to your fps'y, or fighting game's stream. So watch SC2 after LoL, and watch something else in the meantime rather than pretending you're totally entitled to decide IPL's schedule when they're running TWO games at the tournament, not one. You know it's not how it should work. Yet, you say I should wait three hours, like it's a neutral thing to do. But you are right, I am free to do everything in that three hour. Too bad I should never have had a 3 hour spare time now at the first place.

That would of most likely been WolfKrone.

If you think every single SC2 game is gonna be an hour long, sure. It's 8:30 atm LoL takes half an hour to set up, ~an hour to play That puts us at 10PM before STC/Stephano It's a bo5 Bo5 will take an hour, minimum, maybe up to 1.5 hours 11-11:30 Then will be the loser of stc/stephano vs mma for the bronze match another bo5 12:30-1 am, easy then winner of stc/stephano vs lucky for the grand final bo7 1hr minimum, maybe 2 hours max 2-3 am and they have the "closing ceremony for sc2 and LoL" that was scheduled for an hour
they are not playing out 3rd place match

but why the hell do they play LoL right before THE SECOND SEMI?? why not before the finals (although for sc2 fans this would be as bad as the other option)? this is utter bs.

money in LoL are anything but free. They don't have open brackets, you pretty much requires to be a well known team that needs to be invited to have a chance.
Then you have to split prize money 5 ways, not including the traveling fees for 5 players. Its an incredibly unfriendly environment for new players

best spectator sports I've seen so far are fighters (SSF4) and SC2. Great match of latif vs justin wong! EG FIGHTING!!!

Viewers have went from 65k+ viewers to almost 10k viewers now, What is IPL thinking showing League of legends before the grand finals of SC2?

He's better than you at SC2, and also plays LoL. He's also a long way from being as good as the professional LoL players. Sorry to burst your bubble but HazMat actually is at least semipro at LoL

i can guarantee you that their viewership dropped when LoL went on, like my viewership.

Only missed out because people like HazMat were too lazy to practise npnp huehuehue.
I saw those games on youtube somewhere. HazMat looked very very average. Was rooting for TL though!

I think only 1 in top 8 was using an xbox controller. There is the number 2 Viper player in the US. Wolfkrone. He was a poor kid from Detroit so he learned to play the game on a PS3 controller. Now he travels around the country kicking ass with it. He also made top 8 of this tournament.

Love JWong, he respects his opponents so much. That sing-a-long with the Latif-fans was great!
|
The LoL is not only causing emotional problems for the viewers,
It's affecting the players as well, Steph was on a winning streak and he was ready, but instead he was forced to wait for hours for his next match... and the waiting game can get very tiresome
|
Im a huge fan of both SF4 and SC2 and to see them at the same tourney would make my pussy wet.
|
Latif playing catch up once again take the round!
