it's more just poking fun at the overhype, and how kespa fans were saying they'd be 999999999x better than everything else at SC2 and the competition before kespa was a farce


But who says Kespa players are better? I read the LR threads and all I see is people hating on Kespa and cheering against Kespa players, but I don't actually see much people seriously saying Kespa players are plain better (aside a few trolls of course).

you missed the times right before and during their switch to SC2 lol

You don't even need to go that far. Just two days ago.

I love how people like drg are now a part of the elephant because they've been absorbed by kespa. Somewhere along the way it stopped being that the current sc2 progamers (at the time) were shit in comparison and it became that kespa would just stomp everyone into the ground, and then following that it became anyone at all with a bw background was obviously better. This shit is hilarious.


I don't get it.

When did DRG dominate people and win a GSL or something?


He broke Inno's immortality aura. This is pretty rare to find just one game that you can point to as the turning point in a player's career, but DRG beating Inno in GSL when Inno had pre-nerf mines was it.

I just wished that DRG was always that good T_T

Or, as some people call them, modern mines.


*Jesus mines. They came back from the dead.

No Jaedong is #1 on all e-sports cash, narrowly beating out a bunch of FPS players iirc.

It's those doto players after TI4

What about LoL players? Seeing its popularity I would guess that its players earn a lot, right?


A lot of the money they make is direct from Riot in salary, as well as stream revenue and sponsorships. Actual tournament prize money in LoL is relatively low.

That was impressive, no doubt. But since then he kinda hasn't done.. anything. Makes Code S then bombs out early. (Maybe this round he'll do well?! ZVZ?!?!?) In SPL he didn't do very well either. Going to a foreign team now so honestly I don't have much faith in him doing any better.

Define sucess. If it is just money, it is a bunch of DotA guys, who won a single tournament.

If you factor in other stuff, Flash is one of the most succesfull. Other candidates would be Jaedong, NaDa, MooN, Mvp, MC, Fatal1ty, f0rest and probably a few guys from games, I am not familiar with.

for dota it would be teams like navi, alliance and a lot of chinese teams.
