Wtf are they using to stream? lmfao.

I don't understand how they can hold a tournament before the game is even out, very very stupid idea IMO. What we see on the stream is probably pretty low level play compared to what we can see in the future.

Still gonna buy it though cause everytime I hear caucheka complain about other games it makes me giggle :D

"I also am Otherkin. Whenever autumn rolls around I can feel my kin-type slowly taking over my body. You must know, I identify as pumpkin. I can control it pretty good most of the time, but when September ends, I just cant hold it in anymore. Whenever Im outside I see my brothers and sisters being chopped into soup, coffee, donuts, cake, drinks, bread - ppl even cut human faces into their skin, making a mockery out of their noble appearance. When I see things like that I cant control my pumpkin urges anymore. My natural instincts kick in. I then sit down motionless, while getting bright orange." - Morgana L

Gunilla PR Tactics. Get as much exposure as possible as fast as possible then hide away, rinse repeat. They don't care how well the game preforms right now as long as people see it.

Trying to get Ye Olde fan boys out of the basement (or back into it). The game already has massive hype, this multiplies it. Right now they probably can safely estimate 40-50% "re-uppers" from the original DoTA fan base simply from this tournament alone....

I'm not saying that's for sure, but it's most likely their strategy.

This is very similar to DOTA and HoN. Couriers have existed. Towers have always done a lot less than in LoL (you protect the towers, they don't protect you)

The nuking is a bit dumb, but that is how they punish poor positioning and lack of focus fire. Unlike LoL which is just terribly forgiving in therms of being out of position

But I definitely will continue to play LoL for awhile until I get the actual verdict
Check out my Swain, Taric, and Ashe guides!
No guides currently in progress!
If I helped you at all, give me a +Rep please, thanks!
Also check out my stream!
