League of Legends goin big

[Cooldoggie]

There seems to be a misconception about Spellsy here, hes a 2500 soloque player (equivalent to matchmaking/pubs) support player. He is in no way connected to competitive league of legends nor does he have a respected opinion. and to my knowledge he doesn't have a active stream, If he does its not very watched.


TLDR: hes a pub player and not skilled enough/connected in competitive league of legends.

What's sad is that you think that you're worth responding to. You think that the shit you type up is meaningful to anyone but yourself, and it isnt. Nothing you've said is insightful in any way. It's a fucking mess of regurgitated shit that you've undoubtedly heard other people say, but you have about half the brain power required to make it sound marginally coherent...That nobody gives two shits that you're some pubstomping streamerfag (whose opinion is just as worthless as it ever was)?

Doesn't all of this apply to just about everything you've ever posted on this forum, dota-related or otherwise?

Also, spellsy owns, and that was a good long post about esports professionalism etc., and yall are fuckin haters.

Also also Iunno who cooldoggie is but butthurt trash dota player will be butthurt trash dota players so

not butthurt at all, simply explaining to the people who have no idea about the league of legends scene that hes nothing but a pub player talking out his ass and calling one of the best and most successful players in the game a "mid tier trash player"

[asrmatt]

who is that guy anyway

Cooldoggie, even though you are correct in a lot of what you said... why did you say it? spellsy was just defending league of legends and the points he made were very accurate.

Like spellsy said, the highest level of play is very static and it got boring for me after being there for a few months. I had to resort to akali support etc to even entertain myself.

Like he said, When you are at the highest level the game comes downy to outplaying constantly. Making ever single trade count and not missing cs. The game is nowhere near as dynamic as Dota, but playing at the highest level isn't as easy as all you kids are making it out to be.

Let league pave a way for e-sports. DotA2 Valve doesn't need to be the first to fund people's salaries, but if league of legends gets that it will push Valve more.

League of legends is no where near as simple as people make it out to be, it's much easier mechanically but there's alot of team play aspects that most people who haven't played extensively won't know.

As to WHY I said what I did was because he is flaming people WAY better than him in his respective game, he has 0 competitive experience and comes and talks shit about the captain of one of the longest running teams in the league of legends scene.

It's like a pubstar dota player calling Synderen or ppy bad, the time and effort they put into this game with their teams is unrivaled and its flat out wrong

Ocelote isn't that great, but he isn't mid tier trash so you are correct there.

spellsy did you guys beat mtw.na yesterday?

Anyways,

Spellsy has competitive experience. He has played in many tournaments and at his elo he plays against the same top players every game. Too call him out as much as you did was just uncalled for.

Cooldoggie was right in the regards that spellsy isn't in a position to call Ocelote mid-tier.

League of Legends is very easy to become good at, but being the best of the best and then developing a top team is not.

? 2/3 of his post was calling dota players insecure about lol while he frantically tried to refute anything negative said about lol in this thread


the salaried players thing and more structure in esports is cool but i'm gonna wait to see how it goes before calling it an amazing/crazy step for esports. for all we know riot could be overstepping here and it could crash and burn, giving other companies reasons to not try and set something like this up in the future.

tbh, i don't know what valve doing something like this in dota would even add to my enjoyment of the scene as a fan. there's already a million dollar tourney and these guys play/ have played the game a ton anyway, so it's not like there needs to be more motivation for them to try. plus livestream coverage and vods available after has gotten plenty good enough for anyone to follow the scene easily.

i guess it's nice for pro lol players is all i get out of this article...

[ima_sheep(sux)]

whos down to make a lol team

im down

[Zigrakil]

'league of legends scene'

is that like the transgender scene

[Ganked]

Spellsy, lets be real here, LoL isn't deep. If it was deep, it wouldn't have the same laning setup in every game from -2000 elo to 2000 elo, to lvl 1 mm games to lvl 30 mm games. The game is so stale.

I enjoy playing the game, I think riot did a good job on targetting an audience and delivering. Yes I prefer dota but LoL is still fun and riot doing this is huge for esports. Not to mention these players already have 10k viewers a day, they gonna be making bank.

[ratchet fuel bro]

U know LoL is trash when ganked enjoys it

In all srsness who cares abt LoL its a joke of an esport but it pushes valve to do well for competitive players and the scene

Actually, -2000 elo to like 1400~ elo has pretty random lanes.

[drmaul]

Fuck the haters, we love you spellsy.

[drmaul]

Also, Spellsy is ballin' with his LoL tournament winnings.

[Yossarian]

well this is the first ive seen ESPN cover a game.

fucking LoL.
fuck riot

[speLLsy]

THATS NOT OCELOT

ROFLR FORLFORLFORLFORRLFORLF

its some guy from alternate or w/e who no longer does anything.

he was a mid tier player who got invited to iem because some other team dropped out then wcg cause its wcg

e: also i never claimed to have competitive experience (although i would personally consider myself to have some experience.. but not "lan experience" - setting up that keyboards and shit and all that jazz).. if you actually read the whole point of that statement was that COMPETITIVE EXPERIENCE DOESNT MATTER.. you cant take 1 persons opinion out of thousands and use it as the bible for what 'everyone' thinks.
