Those games are much slower paced and have such a low skill ceiling. Not hating either, I have nothing against those games, I just don't understand why they'd ever be popular amongst former pro-gamers from RTS/FPS games. Also don't really understand why when someone who nobody has heard about in the last several months decides to play a different game it has to be posted in SC2 General or why it has to always turn into some SC2 vs Moba discussion. Or why people who seem to think SC2 is "dead" continue to read the SC2 forum and post in it. LoL is not slow paced at all, its actually much faster than building a deathball in base all game n a moving | ||

That being said, why stick around in a game you will never do well in. There are a ton of players who aren't have fun and don't wish to play competitively... why not move on? Good luck to him. | ||

And when Dendi or Puppey are streaming DOTA2 the are anyhere from 5-10K I haven't seen a SC2 streamer bring in more the 3k for quite sime time Big names, like Polt, bring in quite a few off of pure play. If you want to discuss starcraft bringing in views in general, day[9] brings in numbers on anything he plays. Most koreans either stream anonymously and randomly, or stream a lot, but don't make fun commentaries. They don't stream for the sake of entertaining their viewers as much as other streamers do, making them bad streamers, meaning they have less views. I haven't watched a LoL streamer, so I have no idea if they're any different, but considering LoL has a much larger community, I would bet the numbers are about the same percentage wise. | ||

What's the point in having this kind of discussion? There are players that like lol, there are players that like SC2, and there are players that like both. Stop the nonsense comparing and gloating, guys. This does nothing good. | ||

You haven't been following it closely at all then. Korean teams (and some chinese teams) are dominating the scene, western teams can barely compete once again. | ||

People need to understand that this is a player who has not been successful in SC2 moving on to try something else in his progaming career. Sure, you've heard of Inori and he went okay for a while, but now he's only in Korea and he's never won a match at GOMTV. When a currently successful player switches, then you have permission to shit yourselves. | ||

They can't know the exact reasons and it doesn't matter. Even if MVP switches, it should not affect you. Play whatever you like best, watch whatever esport entertains you and be a happy man. Cut these shitstorms out. | ||
