blizzard should just make "SC:BW 2" and it would all be good.
i dont blame them for switching to LoL since sc2 is kinda boring atm, (same builds over and over again)
SC: BW 2 won't sell. At least well enough to justify creation cost. I would buy an official port of SC1 and SC: BW campaign on SC2's engine with adjusted difficulty and stuff though.

This move is the saddest for me for some reason. I still remember when crowd sourcing brought him to MLG. Back then it showed what a strong community we had. Now, it seems that is a lost memory, buried beneath bitterness and apathy.

no i'm pretty sure it happened (ideas from the dota hero suggestion forum)

I'd check MOBA tournaments out when it stops being a team game and just 1v1 like SC2 with both players controlling 5 heroes each.

Awww yea, this is awesome

He probably refers to the fact that i.e. tournament can't run LoL and any other MOBA and Riot was trying to enforce such rule on teams (so either you have LoL team or Dota2 team but not both). I think Scooters from EG made this information highly implicated at least.
Which was proved to be false to begin with, sicne at the time of Dignitas/EG statements, teams like M5, iG, WE and Rox.Kis all had LoL/Dota2 divisions coexisting

If enough Koreans retire foreign players could stand a chance again. Tbh, Blizzard could consider changing the WCS system in a way that favors the region with the most viewers (Europe) and accept that it will mean that 50% of Korean players will have to retire simply as a sad inevitability.

And Odee (from dignitas) told Slasher to stop mentioning him as a source, so it was basically only EG.

EG and Dignitas were just to retarded to understand what Riot meant.
It's hilarious that people still point this out while right when this controversy arose, M5, iG, WE, Rox.Kis, Fnatic and many other organizations had LoL and Dota2 teams running at the same time.

Wrong again. Riot contacted organizations and told them they can't have both Dota2 and LoL running IF RIOT IS SPONSORING THE ENTIRE EVENT.
This is more of a corporate issue. If MLG or IEM are so much in need of guaranteed money to let themselves be completely sponsored by Riot, then as a result Riot has absolutely no obligations to let a direct competitor get in the same tournament they've paid for.
You don't see Pepsi being sold in stadiums of teams sponsored by Coca-Cola.

Dick move.
It still has nothing to do with "ostracizing other esport scenes". Back then LoL was a complete unknown game and that certainly wasn't done by Pendragon to compete with Dota, it was just a petty payback for someone (at least how he put it) who felt let down by the dota community.

Reply 36, the spoiler tabs.
A champion with Shadowmeld and a wide array of different TRAPS is now "Riot copying my character and turning him into Teemo". For real.

There are 20+ shared accounts in top 40 GM on korean ladder, using it as a sign of racial distribution is a failure.
