I had played the game since beta before launch in 2004. I bought every expansion until WoD. I raided all content through Cataclysm (didn't raid in MoP). There is just something missing from WoW to me now. That "magic" it once had seems to be dead. I can't pinpoint what the issue is. Maybe the game just played…

The short answer is that it's because they're not demonstrating the lane, they're showing the players who are playing that position, like a wide receiver or a defender. They have their default position, but they're not always going to be exactly there.

SHHH SPOILERS. I left that out on purpose! That's why I said they were in the quarterfinals, which is where they lost.

You say advertisement, is this running on American TV or something?

(Unless, of course, I'm reading this entirely wrong and Riot don't care about that, and this is supposed to be simply hyping up the converted)

It's $25,000 per year. That doesn't include additional money from streaming and sponsorships.

You could mention any character design ever made and anyone could rip it apart if it's held to the same standards you selectively hold the female character designs in LoL to.

What I'm getting here is there is no winning with you; if they made an unattractive female character, you'd complain just as badly that it was nothing but a gimmick to counter the claims that their females are over sexualized.

Ever stop to think the problem is you? They make attractive, strong female characters for…

seriously, for the love of everything holy, shut the fuck up.

Teemo has a bunny skin, asshole. No one gives a shit what you think of the fucking skins. Go play hello kitty online. You aren't amazing females with your white knight bullshit.

"the complete lack of imagination used on like 98% of their female designs" are you kidding me? a girl with a burning devil bear, a crazy maniak with tons of guns, a moon ninja, a sun knight, a devil, an angel, a magic ninja fox, an assassin, a viking warrior riding a boar, a crazy ice queen....what "original designe"…

Nope, im in the same boat.

I tried watching the "for newbies" channel a few days ago and it was mostly in-jokes and the two commentators making fun of each other/players. They also spent a lot of time having strong reactions to things without explaining why the things were out of the ordinary.

LoL is more friendly for new players. DotA is a much more complex game with a lot of burden of knowledge. If you've never played a MOBA/DotA style game before LoL will be easier to get into.

I personally prefer LoL over most other MOBA's. its less tedious so you can focus more on the game. DotA2 is a lot more tedious than LoL (and DotA players seem to think that more complicated gameplay means its a superior game). So if you prefer more micromanagement in your action-RTS games, then go with DotA2.

I'm interested in getting into one of these, which one is recommended?

I like how the DOTA characters called LoL a "steaming pile of shit," and then said they hate LoL players for being arrogant and saying their game is better.

Should have spent those 63 hours in LoL. Seriously though, good read.

I'm a big fan of his work. This one especially looks like it was straight plucked out of a game or cartoon. The coloring and shaping is really quality work.

Oh my GOD I want this so bad :O This looks amazing!
