HOW THE HELL is it so popular
oh my god
i seriously think the only reason LoL is popular is because riot games was able to do it right and create an emotional connection watchers have with the teams and now everyones watching team solo mid and counter logic gaming wondering whos the "best in the world" etc etc such as when it was flash vs jaedong in the OSL finals people had an emotional connection to the players which made it more exciting
but holy god LoL iS BORING AS HELL
cannot believe its beating sc2 right now....
wish i could go back to MLG columbus 2011 where the sc2 crowd was amazing and there was so much passion for the game
It's a free game. Video games are for kids/teenagers. Lots of kids don't have $60 and a super expensive computer to play Starcraft 2. Most computers can play LoL and it's free. If SC2 was free and could be played on lower setting computers, it would be five times as big. I remember a study coming out a few years ago saying average gamer age was something like 21 or something around that.
It's way higher than that, and it's rising every year. People that grew up playing games doesn't stop playing them, they just have less time for it.

I mean I know lots of people don't like him much and some of you is gonna tell me that "he's always sucked!!!111", but clearly he is not the player he used to be. I'm not a big fan but it kinda makes me sad to see :/ In my opinion, idra has always been playing like this. He has a few top notch games but then most of his games are filled with ridiculous errors. I was never a big fan imo
His macro compensated for his mistakes, kinda like ogsTop. But now that tons of people caught up, its harder for him.

Gotta love the IE commercial. If you're the type watching MLG chances are you're not the type to switch to IE.

well it didnt matter if idra had a bigger supply advantage cause daisuki had roach hydra. and just the 7 infesters alone from daisuki alone can wreck those roaches with perfect chain fungals. let alone the 4th base "macro hatch larva" to out produce idra if they exchange evenly.

If SC2 was free and could be played on lower setting computers, it would be five times as big. I remember a study coming out a few years ago saying average gamer age was something like 21 or something around that. Alright, but still. Free game that can be played on old computers? Kids, teenagers, college kids and everyone can get into it! SC2 is a $60 game that has to be played on really good computers and hardware. It's also a much harder game to play than LoL for a beginner.
LoL is a team game.LoL is like football(soccer), cheap, masses like it, easy to understand etc.
Sc2 is more like tennis. Bit expensive, individual sport, rules are hard to understand if you don't know the game.
Doesn't mean that other's fans are somehow worse and both games can coexist easily because fans are little different.
