...Huh? Being a LoL pro is equally as hard as being an sc2 pro. You need to practice with a whole team for many hours a day to stay consistent, and most tournaments have prize pools comparable to or less than sc2, except you're splitting it between 5 guys.

Best of luck to FD. LoL is not anything like the flame war stirrers on TL make it out to be. I hope he enjoys himself and helps LoL and esports grow.

As a side note, lol at the ignorance in this thread.]

Edit - agree with the post above me, would be too awesome.

Simply put :

Don't be completly retarded, think for a second and play 8 hours a day and you will become good quickly, even if you never played another MOBA or RTS before. And by quickly I mean... a month or less? And that is, without never watching tutorial, being coached by someone else or even watching any games or replay at all.

Now, start SC2 from scratch, no RTS background and without ... even by playing 8 hours a day, you will not become good. It will be looooong. Actually, you will probably not be able to figure out everything by yourself and you will need to search for tips, for vods, for tutorial or even coach... you will have to analyse our own replay and etc... or it will pretty much take you a year or more to even get into master league. And master league is not even close to be really good yet.

SC2 just take more dedication, time, training... etc. It's a fact. That does not mean that LoL is a worst game or anything... but be serious for a second... SC2 is way harder... the same way that BW is harder than SC2.

How is it a fact that you need more dedication time or training to be the best in sc2 compared to lol?

Seriously? why are all the people hating on LoL? it's just the same as BW-people were acting towards SC2 and everyone was like "F***ing elitists" and now you are doing exactly the same?
but whatever...
I tried to convince my brother and my roommate about Starcraft, but it failed in both cases. The game was too difficult, "I'm just not good at this" and so on. And I really think that's true. You can play LoL without much knowledge of anything but you can't play Starcraft like that. So they started to play LoL and now they are hooked with that game and watch streams and shit.
I don't get what they like but it's is just their taste. It was easier to get into and so they stayed with it. Understandable but sad :/

You can commit to doing anything for 8 hours a day if you choose to do so, but some activities (and being successful in them) will still be harder than the others.

Why is everyone hating on LoL?

I love Starcraft, but I can´t play it to relax. When I play Starcraft, I have to be 100% focused, when I play LoL I can relax and have fun. Maybe that´s the reason for the hate, but people do get lonely from just practicing 8 hours a day, it gets stressful with all the pressure to succeed.

That doesn't answer my question. What specifically makes practicing lol that much easier than sc2? Time aside, how is one specifically more difficult than the other, and how does this make LoL worse or less legitimate?

Funny how much bashing and hate towards LoL, everyone pissed because LoL stream numbers piss on SC2 numbers or what? Jesus. You check the LoL subforum here and you won't see the regulars bashing on SC2 or even direct competitors like HoN or Dota2. So much misinformation about the game, scene, streams and events as well it's quite frankly sad.

Here's food for thought, team games are inherently harder to be the top of the top than solo games, where you don't have to rely on 4/9/10/X/Y amount of other people to make plays. There's usually coaches for team games too I've heard.

Gl to FD, hope he gets startales team competing at the highest level, we need more korean/chinese teams enter the scene.

People can't take a game you can play so casualy as a serious e-sport game.
That's why. If you didn't already know, we are ( as the starcraft community ) the most masochist gamers on the internet. A Pro game should not be fun and casual, it should be hard and extremely challenging.

I know tons of people that play team games and ums games casually, does this make sc2 less of an esport? I fully realize you are being sarcastic btw.

That's because it's not 1v1 i guess.
It's like if Summoner Rift was really hard and competitive, and Dominion very casual and fun. ( i guess you could see it that way )
