People will hate on Thorin just for being Thorin. It's not hard to do considering his personality, and how he delivers certain lines in his videos.

Your criticisms of him amount to "he hurts my feelings" not that his criticisms are invalid. It's your choice to not watch his videos because you don't like him there's no legitimate reason why we all shouldn't watch his stuff.

People don't hate on Thorin for being Thorin, they hate on him for being intentionally provocative, however being provocative gives him more attention. At least that what I think, I have no data to verify that. However people will watch something just to feed their hate of him but it's just as good as a view from his biggest fan.

I just finished watching that video and I agree with everything thorin said and anyone who disagrees can fite me.

He definitely is being very personal and childish about it but it helps garner a reaction I suppose.
"It starts with, I shit you not, him talking about "TL said that SC2 was better than BW.""
Blatantly false. He said that they said BW was better than SC2 but later embraced SC2 because it was the new thing.
I'm sure there were/are some people who think SC2 is a better game than BW but they can also fite me.

Imagine if TL used sharingan to spot and pick up on Cloud 9 early. Holy shit.
speaking of which WHY DO ATTACK ON TITAN CHAPTERS HAVE TO BE SO SLOW IT'S GIVING ME SCORPIO


After actually listening to it (ugh), I disagreed with the first 5 minutes of it or so, and then agreed with the rest. I don't think he did an accurate job of depicting how TL treated SC2 at all.

TL shat all over SC2 constantly.

can you point out the points he made specifically that you disagreed with so i can fite you

He did say that TL shat all over sc2. He said specifically that they all went "this is shit" after coming from brood war which everyone sort of agrees with.

I don't see how there's anything wrong with praising TL's current choice to enter LoL and how it's good for them/the game overall but then criticizing their actions in the past. They don't get a complete free pass just because they picked up the LoL team now.

I started browsing TL when SC2 was in beta, and my impression was always that TL's acceptance of SC2 was begrudging, that the game they would have made would have been very different, and that they were very vocal about that. That impression was pervasive and basically didn't stop until SC2 got enough viewers and the site got enough new members that it was forced to do so.

Which I think is INCREDIBLY SIMILAR to how TL has treated LoL, just over a more drawn out period of time.

Thorins main point appears to be that TL is hypocritical because the way they treated SC2 and the way they treated LoL were categorically different, when I think they were the same.

If anything the games TL has treated "differently" are Hearthstone and Heroes, because we can all agree on WTF was that all about.

Which is exactly what thorin fucking said?
Of course they were a bunch of SC2-only guys who came in and outnumbered the original BW guys making it seem like a bit more SC2-biased.

I find it kind of funny that teut and ketara due to their avatar choices are brother and sister. Ketara being the sister.

Also, super hot russian girl in my micro class. Economics, pls, spare me. Why must you taunt me ;-;

The issue is his absolutely uninformed and incorrect analysis on why TL didn't get into LoL before. Which believe me wasn't because the editorial staff were LoL haters.
