Also, if you and Wolf say "GG" together at the end of a game one more time you may as well bend him over after the match and get it over with. Sometimes I watch the GSTL on mute... I don't what what the hell else to say here. PLEASE STOP CASTING. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Probs my final post on TL.net via this account. GG. Genetic User was temp banned for this post. | ||

Khaldor also unintentionally admitted that the game is simply not good enough when he used the excuse that there are so many other games available to the korean players. Why would players simply settle for a significantly inferior game just because it's free to play? Khaldor's excuse for SC2 can probably be used for every non free to play game out here. | ||

This did not deserve a ban in any way, not only was he respectful, he is also completely right. Khaldor DOES say only what has happened recently on the screen and he dwells on it forever. | ||

Except he was banned for saying "this will be my last post on this account" which, be ause we are like Disney and make dreams come true, is what happened. So don't post about bans. | ||

I keep seeing people posting in the LR threads about the crowds or lack there of. My message has always been the same. Stop caring about the crowd and worry about yourselves. If you enjoy it, great. Show it by continuing to support the game and players. Other than that I wish everyone would get over their stupid anxieties. Accept it for what it is instead of looking for acceptance from others. If you think the crowd is boring how about you go out to an event and show your passion for the game you like to watch. No excuses; don't try to reason with it. Enjoy it for what it is and you will be better off that way. | ||

As long as koreans pros play and we as westerns can watch high quality games, I could care less if the korean public likes it. I would rather have things as they are today, than the way things were in the BW days (BW popular in korea, but almost dead everywhere else) If Koreans didn't invest so much time and money into BW, we won't have the SC2 we see today. Show some respect. It's because the Korean public ventured into the risky e-sports business and made it sustainable, if not profitable, is why we have what we have today for virtually any televised e-sports event. Yes, one may argue there are other organizations that would have attempted to popularize e-sports, and many have, but many of them failed and stopped running (IGN is the most recent). If it wasn't for KeSPA who really showed a working model that created investor confidence, the SC2 scene you like so much now would most likely not have existed today. So what would losing the Korean public mean to SC2 you ask? Well for one, the smaller your fanbase, the less competitive gamers you get out of it. I can't imagine SC2 without 90% of the Koreans progamers. | ||

This is important because there is a level of certainty in regards to the sustainability of e-sports, whether it's SC2 or some other form of game. | ||

There are several ways you can look at it. For instance, the shelf-life of most games is poor; likewise, once you peak as a pro gamer it's relatively short as well. | ||

Would rather watch paint dry than to spend an hour per game watching mostly creeps farming and fail ganking A bo3 sc2 series also only take 30 minute total on average, while any single lol match is 40 minute minimum + champion selections. There is also huge luck factor in LoL when it comes to ganks and comp overall How is any of this luck? if anything, there is way less uncontrolable luck in LoL. in Blind pick, sure, but people play draft pick. As for ganks, well wards exist for a reason.. saying that ganks are luck is just like SC2 being luck based if you don't scout. As for creep farming ( or rather called, the laning phase) there is way more action there than most PvZ games which are 10 minutes of macro, 2 minutes of fights, and 5 minutes of " why isn't he GGing, he lost". Watching 10 minutes of a game just to see a winner being decided in 2 minutes is NOT exciting. | ||

I know the Korean scene is the holy grail for SC, but in WC3, the Chinese scene helped sustain the game when the Euro scene started fading off. Why I'm fulling entrenched in P2P camp w/paid aesthetics is because cutting off a nation of billion people makes absolutely no sense. People may say there's no point in catering to those freeloaders, but the returns come in the form of that self-sustaining scene, tournament $$$, Chinese sponsors. When I look at the Chinese Dota 2 audience/government support, I just can't help but feel Blizzard dropped the ball on the old WC3 playerbase there. | ||

That's bullshit and he's completely wrong. You can play SC2 completely for free in PCbangs here and it was like that from the day SC2 was started. The only thing you pay for here in Korea is the ability to install it on your own personal computer and play it not-in-a-pcbang. Source: Me. I've lived in Korea for years, I speak the language, and I was just as glued as everyone else when SC2 was announced on here back in '07. | ||

I think the answer is there is no hype or tournaments based around the 2v2 scene. A big mistake imo. 2v2 can be very fun to watch. In other rts games like red alert 2, being good in 2v2 won you just as much respect as being good in 1v1. In sc2, it's all about 1v1s. | ||
