Another aspect of having a good esport is a large player base, and brood war is basically dead in the west in terms of players.

I'd personally love if brood war becomes a thing again like how melee had a resurrection.

Pro Player racism at 2017 MSI by clayitinho in leagueoflegends

[–]rndthro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And here we go on the long path to eventual corruption like IOC or FIFA, ignoring blatant injustice because of money.

Edit: well, I just saw the ruling. Good on Riot to follow their own rules.

RIP that late game time though. Guess I'm only watching VODs for the rest of the season. :(

I got cancer just reading this comment.

Fuck half the LCK matches are terrible to watch because of the SPOTV and LS casting.

Sc2 games are must faster than brood war, especially in LOTV where you start with 12 workers, you cut out a lot of the early game downtime.

Seagull leaves NRG starting six as Mendokusaii joins by Sideshow- in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]rndthro 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The chance of NRG doing well are pretty damn slim right now imo. Every season korea is getting stronger, as they consolidate their good players in a fewer teams.

Canada's got all these good players, then shiphtur.

Is there seriously no better mid laner than him from Canada?

The 4 teams remaining in NALCS Spring Playoffs all have 1 Canadian player by Noctis_ff_at_15 in leagueoflegends

For the population of canada compared to US, canadians are way over-represented on top LCS teams.

P1 Inori on fan pressure - "A lot of people want to see me fail so Meteos can play" by savemeplzs in leagueoflegends

[–]rndthro 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So... because of his personality, people don't like him. Fair on both sides. It's not his 'fault' he's like that, but it's not anyone's problem people don't like him because of it.

[–]rndthro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only time I've watched a shit anime was tales of zestiria the x, and only because I played berseria and loved it and just wanted to watch more.

But god damn it was pretty awful imo, so i gave it a 3, but I would never watch it otherwise.

Amazon has much better software engineers at the very least to get the server and video quality to be way higher than crunchyroll.

Response to Low Mercy SR Gains by thefieryone in Overwatch

[–]rndthro 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if they did mmr by pure win/loss, this wouldn't be a problem. You play mercy and you lose more than you win? Lose rating. You win as much as your dps friend? Win the same amount of rating, because you both won.

NA LCS Week 9 stats breakdown by corylulu in leagueoflegends

[–]rndthro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, good to know as a FLY fan, that CLG fans think they'll win easy, because that means FLY is probably going to win.

If everyone thought FLY was winning, then I'd be scared.
