You can't compare the games.
It's true.
Mechanics are on lightyears distance.
But grinding the lol ladder is way harder when you gotta win 1v5, i've been playing for 1 year to get gold and another year to get plat(and it was hard).
Been playing sc2 for 1 week and i've been in gold top 25 already.
It's a 1v1 game, so it just depends on your skill, lol and dota are influenced by the rest of the team, so it's obviously harder to grind.

Gold is like...silver in LoL. If that.

I'd love to know what league you are in sc and in LoL but you would probably lie so there isnt a point ._.



probably the most retarded post i have seen in my 6 years on this forum

o lawd LoL is a joke compared to dota

its not harder, just more stupid due to the fact that u rely on 4 other idiots.
get a team and its pretty easy to hit diamond in lol

You can only queue with one other person

I hit diamond in a month of playing LoL and not I'm kind of stuck, got into D4 and fell back to D5 a couple times. I have so much to learn and to be really good at the game it does take a lot of skill.

SC2 is only viewed as a 'hard' game because of BW. SC2 is a easy game, extremely volatile because of low skill cap, and very repetitive. It's also pretty boring and has no social aspect at all, unlike BW. So when you compare it to a F2P game with a really entertaining competitive scene and a ton of variety then it's kind of obvious why LoL is so popular in comparison.

From a competitive player's standpoint, I'm switching to LoL because Riot cares about their players. I want to see if I can 'go pro' in 6 months. Basically that means become one of the top 40 NA players and riot pays you a shit ton of money. If you're in LCS ( equivalent of WCS in SC2 ), that's completely region locked to only NA players, Riot pays for your house and gives you a salary. There's a real opportunity to make a living from LoL that doesn't exist in SC2 for American players.

yeah, that seems like a good reason to play LoL

league of losers

You're way off, in the long run everybody is gunna be dealt the same amount of good and bad players so i tall comes down to skill

If you win or lose the next game you play is somewhat based on luck but in the long run good players have high ELO and bad players have low ELO (and shitty excuses)

i wouldnt pay lol even if it paid more than i currently make


shitty game =/
