OafmealSo please elaborate on your phone call to Fatal1ty wherein you challenged him to a game that died years ago. I am intrigued.

I recall him talking about living in one of his random texas properties. probably friendly shit talk somehow turned into a thing

Yeah but hopefully relic has a bootcamp partner(s) who is better than whoever fatality was practicing against cause as far as pk goes that guy was NO WHERE near his level...but like someone said his aim does seem good. But fatality's core strength was never his aim, it was his strategy and movement (at least from what I saw back in the day)

WTF what a weird coincidence. oPlaiD has been talking about fatal1ty (awkwardly, while we're in bed together) nearly every night for the past week -- just wondering out loud what he's up to and talking about wanting to write something about him, things like that.

In any case, this should be amazing to watch.

This is some sort of cosmic coincidence because I have been talking to the gf about oPlaiD wondering what he's been up to lately.

Weird.

The same reason LoL is popular in a way, the dev pumped it hard to tourneys and the like. Riot was just better at it.

It has everything to do with why LoL is popular. It wouldn't have half the comp scene it does if Riot wasn't pumping cash into every tournament. If they just stopped, even now after it's established, prize pots for LoL would plummet.

I understand there's a ton of hate for LoL and I prefer DotA a ton myself, but you guys are really ignorant if you think that the only thing keeping LoL from being the game with the biggest casual playerbase and the highest consistent (by a large margin) stream viewer count are Riot hosted tournaments.

LoL is really accessible, free, and has been hugely popular before Riot hosted their global tournaments. The vast majority of people who play LoL are casual players. The way you make it sound is that LoL is like shootmania or painkiller where the only people who played the game were competitive players in it for the tournaments and as soon as there was no money in the game it instantly died.

That being said, no matter how much valve promoted TF2 it would have never gotten as much attention as LoL because FPS games as a whole target a much smaller audience. I think it was sirscoots or someone from EG who had a big "the future of gaming" video, but the main highlight is that FPS games are not taking the spotlight for stream views or the competitive scene. DotA, LoL, and Starcraft are obliterating games like CS and CoD in viewer count and I've never seen TF2 front paged on twitch.tv once.

EDIT: The video I was thinking of was this http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=pFwLqQCqWrI and it was djwheat not sirscoots @ 4:40 is relevant.
