300 games is a lot of games for a pro rts player to be 1000 ELO. Just sayin. But as I said he'll take this his ZvP style is extremely abusive.

Well it's a knowledge-based game and tech skill doesn't translate over nearly at all. I've watched like every time he's played LoL and at the start he wasn't even lasthitting properly, however as he's playing with his higher skilled friends he seems to always ask questions and want to learn. He seems to curse / flame his team an awful lot if he's not taking the game seriously so I dunno. I'd say recently his tech skill has become better but again he doesn't seem to have a whole lot of game sense in LoL and also his teamfighting seems really lackluster

Not like that has anything to do with anything >_> But I'm not buying that he's just trolling etc. as it really looks to me like he's trying to win each game. However he probably isn't heavily investing in it as he hasn't asked for coaching or read many guides etc. so I'm not sure..


What I meant is that mechanical skill and decision making alone with a decent team comp would get him pretty far once he knows the basic. I don't know, I've got about 500 games played and I'm sitting at 1500, and my knowledge of the game is poor and I'm only diamond on sc2. I see what you mean though.

It just annoys me a tad that people think he could just switch and be competetive at LoL straight away. Kinda says something about the misconceptions regarding LoL's difficulty in the sc2 community >_>

to be honest, if you are smart and understand the concept of the range of any champs abilities (which are mostly the same) I think it would take you about 200 games to get 1.8k elo where people are still piss poor bad (my elo)

200 games from a scratch, really? I mean it took even Chu who was an amazing HoN player, from the same genre, over 500 games to reach those elos, and if we're talking from a scratch... no

But yeah it's kind of annoying people think that the game's a joke and a SC2 pro could just switch over and dominate, yupyup. But by the way as I said destiny's been improving a ton recently and I think with a bit more he should actually start climbing the ladder pretty heavily, he still is pretty bad with lasthitting and teamfighting but he has a pretty good idea of the general map objectives and concepts and that's the most important thing.

I really would like it though if Destiny sleeped, I mean he said he'd quit after the next game like an hour ago and if he just doesn't sleep he's going to play horribly in this showmatch and that would really suck

yeah, there are more examples of people switching taking more than that

i guess what i meant was "play at that level" instead of "reach that level" if you understand what i mean

and i also didn't mean to bash any moba, i have played 2k+ lol games 500 hon and over 100 dota 2 now, so if anything i would be bashing myself haha

AFAIK, destiny practices on the KR server whereas incontrol plays on NA. Also destiny has a winning record against incontrol. So I think destiny should win, even if he spends an inordinate amount of time playing LoL.

Destiny has recently beaten Choya and Hasuobs, both better protoss than Incontrol. He definitely has a shot. It should be a close and fun showmatch


Choya dt rushes every game, he's not that good. Incontrol has been practicing alot and getting better, so he's probably at least as good as Hasuobs, who is a good protoss.

I would not say Incontrol is as good as Hasuobs yet, because Hasuobs appears to be slumping at the moment (poor showings at HSC and Kiev). Still, Incontrol seems to be getting better. I guess a lot of people underrate him because most of what we saw of Incontrol's play last year was at MLGs, where the pool seeding put him against players that were just levels above him, and not surprisingly he performed horribly. He is not a top foreigner by any means, but he is still a pro level player.

It should be close though.
