I've had HotS since alpha and have played it already and was playing it two days ago. At the end of the day, I wanna go pro in League of Legends because every week I tune in and see plenty of really bad AD Carries that I know with time and practice I could crush. Sneaky is my favorite AD Carry, and I wanna be that good one day.
Short Term Goals: Silver/Gold/Platinum || Long Term Goals: Diamond/Master/Challenger

Is there something wrong with having Asian ethnicity?

Double entendre or something, maybe. :>

Now I see. If it's something else:
(75% Asian here :3)
Thanks LaCorpse for the sig!
Positive racism is still racism lol.
Stereotyping is just as much a discrimination against those who are of that culture but don't fit the stereotype, regardless of whether the stereotype is 'positive' or 'negative'. So saying 'because I'm 25% Asian means I'm career-oriented' does a racial injustice against Asians which might not be so career oriented.
That was basically the implication you gave. If not, then there was no point in mentioning that you had Asian lineage. You could have just said you had a career to focus on.
Edit: Sorry, just finished a module in stereotyping and speech injustice, so just felt the need to point that out.

So here's the deal, you are "stuck" in a very low bracket of play, you are not doing so well in terms of climbing/improving (mostly due to your own fault), you don't believe you can improve and what's even worse you are not having fun, so perhaps changing a game would do you some good (you could at least try out HotS, since it's going to be ftp).
While I agree that Heroes of the Storm is a much more casual game than league, that's not necessarily a bad thing, considering your post in the QQ Thread and you mentioning that you are not having fun while playing league. To add to this, HotS is a relatively new game (still in BETA), meaning that there plenty of windows of opportunity for new people to "make it", be it as a pro player, streamer, content creator or someone on a more managing side of the competitive scene and if nothing else, taking some time off league and playing a different game might help you relax, rediscover your love for league, or simply help you see things differently.
As for you not enjoying hanging out with friends who don't share similar interests, well, perhaps you ought to try and find friends that do? (Either way, going outside and just hanging out with people is good for you)
