The usual: Don't flame casters or players. Don't discuss balance in this or any LR thread. Don't call your fellow posters idiots. Be excited, happy and entertained.

Starcraft 131k > LoL 95k !!


Starcraft is dying

LoL 123k > Starcraft 116k

http://www.twitch.tv/ and LoL game just started.

Watching LoL streams is like watching paint dry. I definitely anticipate a huge influx of players constantly coming to SC for esports.


LoL has 32 million active users, they have plenty of people they can grab through marketing and advertising to watch their streams.

100k viewers is like 0.3% of its playerbase. Though this should tell you how dedicated starcraft fans are relative to the playersize


Haha, I was going to say that too. 32 million players yet they can only pull in 100k to watch MLG, while SC2 only has a few million (4 million?) and we are able to get the same amount.


Active users for sc2 ? Probably less.


I imagine there are a lot of people who spectate starcraft 2 that don't play multiplayer actively or haven't bought the game at all.

They don't practice equally though. Also Koreans don't have to stream as much as foreigners do because of the infrastructure already in place with the team houses in Korea. So it has a lot to do with the infrastructure allowing them to practice like crazy without worrying about exposure and the willingness to do so.


The infrastructure didnt build itself though. Most ESF Koreans sacrificed salary for a practice house. The problem with the foreign scene is that all the major tournaments are spread out. They need something like the GSL to center their houses around.


The bulk of players in the West are never going to up and move to a center location just to practice and compete evenly with Koreans. I believe the scene is going to die before that happens.

Practically speaking, people here by and large don't treat the game with the same amount of dedication and never have. Very few people think of this as a permanent career. Those that do have found ways to go to Korea, but then discovered that they're isolated there, too.

Honestly, if Flash would practice only four hours a day living at home in NA, he'd still be better than all foreigners. Talent also plays a role and Korea has always had more competitive players and higher status for professional gamers. (not more players)


If you mean he would be had he been born in the USA etc then I call absolute BS. If you mean if he moved there at start of SC2 then I can see it...

No it didn't build itself but the point about space is key. There's no infrastructure outside of Korea to allow players to sacrifice money for practice. Unfortunately I don't really see it happening anytime soon.

LoL has 1 stream and there are definitely a lot of people with both SC2 streams open. Wait until later, Curse vs. KT Rolster won't be lower than 150k.

Things counter it now. Skytoss destroys BL/Infestor, Terrans can transition to mass Ravens with cheaper HsM, and ZvZ thus far ends in Mutawars.

probably has something to do with the raven buff in TvZ. in PvZ the buffed voidrays combined with storms just melt away corruptors and if it goes into heavy lategame you add some tempests and a broodlord infestor is basicly useless.
