Now the #1 esport in Korea - Page 2

How can you even mention CS together with broodwar? CS didn't even require 10% as much skill as BW.
Also good Q3 players are waay more impressive imo but guess it's a taste thingy, since CS is teamgame and all.

was funny watching doomer be a professional pub stomper on COD ;D

DO IT ON CAL NOOB

just wait till flash comes over to sc2...then we'll see what a real programer looks like. quad pronged attacks gonna be the standard ;(

in terms of pure aim skill of course quake 3 was way fucking more impressive...so was unreal tournament.

but don't underestimate the extremely high skill cap (almost unlimited) in cs as well . and of course the tactical aspect of the game is far superior than the above 2 mentioned games. (remember heaton? comon you're swede)

I have no idea how this game is so popular, graphics are disgusting and look like for a 12 year old, and it's impossible to know what's going on if you don't play the game (esports factor).

yea just like boxer and nada showed us... oh wait.

CS is up there with BW in terms of skill (there are like 5 TOP players big skillcurve even at the top) but they are just very different.


wc3 is an amazing game as well. way better than sc2

Its hard going from winning 80 matches in a row to having 55% winrate in SC2 vs people you laughed at in brood war.

SC2 rapes BW in this aspect.

I have never even touched the SC games but I'm still interested in watching the high level SC2 streams with commentary; BW not even a bit.

Wat.

This is the other way around. I have no idea what the hell is going on in an SC2 game.

BW its much easier to tell where the flow of the game is going, who's winning, who needs to come back etc.

Much friendlier

ban

BW and Quake3 forever, everything since has been causal friendly trash.

called this a long time ago... LoL is the best moba game out there, only ppl i know who say `dota` or `dota2` are those who only played a few matchs at terrible elo and went back to Dota, coz they already know how that game works. so, why learn a new one?

You are completely missing the point of the game, you might just as well say that the graphics of chess suck... I pity you guys that you never played such an awesome game.

also wanna mention for the record that Warcraft 3 is by far the best game ever made

haters gonna hate

I just don't buy the "extremely high skill cap" for CS but.. And yes I remember the CS history and that's like the point, swedes dominated the scene the entire time and we're lazy fucks compared to asians. CS-pros pracced a few hours a day and took whole weeks of vacation after tournaments, not even CLOSE to putting the amount of hours in as korean WC3/BW pros.
I mean, BW was a true esport and the gamers were truly proffessional aswell, truly putting in the effort to become the best, nothing like the CS-scene where most of the "pros" just pracced at the evenings after work/school and went out every weekend etc.

Pretty much this

plus this
