I wonder why yellow,nada and reach got so addicted to LoL ? . Why ??
seriously dude? you're being kinda pathetic with all that lol promoting, i wonder why you don't post as much in lol section as you do in starcraft ones >.>
nada got paid to do a comercial, i would say sonic adventures is the next e-sports if i got paid to do it. reach said he knew nothing abut lol when he joined the team, he wasn't even considering it when he left KT.
just stop dude.
Don't mind him dude. His hatred for sc2 overshadows everything else so he takes a jab at it every chance he gets. Just let him post his bs, I doubt no one really bother to care anymore because it has been going on for a while and it is pretty tiring.

I don't post in LoL forum that doesn't mean I don't watch my friends play the game ? Well it's quite a legitimate question i am putting forth here . If nada and yellow was paid to do so it probably would feel fake or they are just damn good actors at it and reach him self said that he was not sure about returning to e-sport however in the end he came back for LoL . Which must be something that LoL has or the coach of that LoL team has some really good persuading skill .
I will be honest here I rather watch LoL than sc2 happy now ?
watching your friends play the game probably isn't the best insight of the progaming scene, you know. oh you really think they did the commercials for free just to spread their love for the game? and reach came back cuz the sponsor of the team talked him into it, not cuz he got addicted to lol as you said, you are just making stupid statements/assumptions.

Friends influence what games I play and it doesn't have to do with programing scene you know ? I like the game that I think it's fun and some how I see LoL is a much more fun game because it's much more a sociable experience 5v5 with buddies than playing sc2 alone . Hey why not ? If nada and yellow were to be giving free promotions for the game and a little incentives for extra promotion of the game I still call it free promotions. Okay I must be a noob here because the person who I wanted to add in to the list of addicted lol (previous bw gamers ) were Kim carrier . So how is it now ?
I mean, other than Khan players. There are a bunch of first teamers that we haven't seen play since the start of this season.
Edit: Where, Rush and the other Woongjin zerg could possibly switch. But I'm more curious about some other players who haven't been left out of the rosters yet. I guess we'll find out more in the next month or two.

you are the "noob" here because you're making no sense at all and you're just promoting lol with pointless arguments, and when i pointed that you don't know what you were talking about you just came up other stories. i rest my case and won't bother answer your foolishness anymore. i actually like lol but your talk is just c-r-a-p.

Wasn't promoting lol with pointless argument though was just stating the fact that ex bw players are in to the scene even if you like it or don't.
I always thought this would be the natural transition for players that are below A-class (cept the ones that jumped ship super early) since all the S/A-class BW players will most likely transition to SC2 and along with the SC2 players makes a very saturated market of high skilled or experienced players whereas with a much easier game like LoL there's a lot of room for their BW mechanics to kick in and stuff.

Agreed, personally i prefer BW and Sc2, but i do like to watch LoL too ( played it for a month or so, and lot of original dota back then ), its fun game
I love games like LoL because it puts alot of importance on individual plays (laning phase for example)
BUT, its also a team game. So you can be the best player in the world, but if your team can't work together, then you will probably lose (this is why, sometimes with insane lead, team will lose because as a team they make mistakes)
In this regard, LoL is much closer to a team sport.

You can't say SC2 is "saturated" in Korean scene if it didn't have a huge breakout yet, compared to LoL which had higher numbers in attendance in its first season (Champions).
The thing is you can keep expecting/anticipating this all you want. Doesn't mean it's going to happen.
You cannot go back in history and rewrite time man.
Anticipating what? Because (assuming that you're saying I can anticipate LoL to succeed huge) the numbers already show that Korean fans want to watch LoL instead of SC2 at this moment. Sure, the upcoming expansion and other things might change things, but like you said, you cannot go back in history and rewrite time. And what did the previous tournaments showed us? LoL > BW > SC2 in terms of popularity in Korea atm.
DOTA 2 is already highly competitive with many ex-dota1 pros playing, along with already established chinese/euro scenes and there is little room for completely new talent. Even with their blazing mechanics, ex-BW pros would be hard pressed to break into the DOTA 2 scene as most of their speed will be completely wasted and many chinese/euro players already have very strong mechanics.
But overall, MOBAs are MUCH less mechanically demanding than an RTS like BW or even SC2. You aren't required to multitask, you don't have to play at 300+ APM, you always have teammates to rely on. In my mind, it's quite possible that they are picking up LoL because it's new and popular but also because it won't destroy their hands and wrists like BW/SC2.
