But it will never go past 140k views, LoL is a casual game with the stream in the game client which means any player can click on the stream and watch it. Starcraft has a more dedicated community but unfortunately the developer, Blizzard, loses greatly to Riot Games when it comes to promoting the game. Did you guys ever questioned the viewership of the said game? What demographic plays LoL? Most likly people who don't want to buy shit. Why? They play a free-to-play for a good reason. So if you want to compare the viewers please consider demographics and what that says about actual buying-power. | ||

Kind of sad that he's balance whining in pretty much every LR thread when Protoss wins... not that his balance whine really means anything because if he wants to pull the "I'm better than you so I know what I'm talking about" card then I can find you several Protoss pros leagues better of him that disagree with him (Oz, Genius, for example)  I dont know why he nevers gets banned. If i did the same whine over and over like he does, i would be long gone by now. | ||

Nope, that game only gets as many fans as it does because its F2P not because its a superior game. I play LoL and sc2 is way more entertaining to watch even if that wasn't the greatest series ever. | ||

(one day: 34€ presale, 39€ buy it there) you have to mention that you get cebit tickets for free everywhere all over the internet. | ||

Yep even for LoL. Maybe the grand finals will have more but i remember them having way over 100k in the past. Maybe even 150k? Dunno anymoer. | ||

Players were able to cast, you had a breakout player and a really nice final. What else do you want? on a side note: i think this IEM event had the best set of casters i've ever witnessed in sc2! (except maybe HSC but you can't really compare that to other events) | ||

Starcraft has a more dedicated community but unfortunately the developer, Blizzard, loses greatly to Riot Games when it comes to promoting the game. Dying is taking it too far though. SC2 is pretty stable. GSL finals got more viewers than ever before according to john and mr. Chae. I don't think SC2 will ever get as many viewers as LoL, it's because it's free to play and casual oriented that's all. Not even Dota 2 (As a game, far superior to LoL), will get as many viewers as LoL, simply based on how the paying models are. | ||

But LoL definitely looks alot slower than dota 2. Only reason LoL is so popular is because its easier to play casually and its free lol Ah gotcha  Yeah I suppose the team aspect (in-game) plays a role in its success. Thanks ^^ Free is always good too lol. | ||

Wow so many people with so little knowledge re-evaluation the state of SC2 every weekend. I cant keep reading this bullshit. | ||
