cs will never die :)

a week ago you said something else in your forum topic :D

So how many ppl watch sc2, LoL, and Dota2? Just curious

+1

Nothing at all. Those games are for idiots.

+999999999999999

Like 2 CT/T running around the map and use the same gun/other shit and shooting, so what can be interesting there? Is there a lot of tactics, ways of playing in disciplines 1x1 like sc2?

u basically said "what's more interesting in basketball/ice hockey/american football" you cant compare these games to cs, they have their own fanbase which is way bigger than cs

Anything can sound stupid if you put it like that: "guys run around bombsites with guns". I mainly play(ed) CS, but DotA/HoN can be great fun when you understand what's going on.

DotA and HoN are very similar to CS, needing much teamwork and communication as well as individual skills such as map awareness, quick decision making and hero control (last hitting, juking, hitting combination of skills). There are many tactics in DotA and HoN; drafting heroes which work well together and picking counters of opposing team heroes; controlling the map to deny opposing teams farm and ability to move freely; positioning, timing and roles in team fights and/or defending/attacking towers.

If you can't at least accept that some people enjoy a different game to you how do you expect who have never watch an "esport" to appreciate your (or any) game? There are many ignorant/arrogant comments aimed at other games which are very frustrating to read. Good to see someone not jump on the bandwagon and be a little inquisitive about other games.

Well sc2/dota/LoL all takes way more individual skill than CS. You need to micro stuff and watch the whole map all the time. When talking about dota, the streams are really entertaining because of combos and teamwork that is displayed and you can see the overview of these "fights" whereas in cs its just "First person" perspective which is kinda boring. Lets say watching football from a persons perspective by strapping a camera to his head. Would you rather watch like its today from an "overview" perspective or a "First person". Well thats just my opinion and thats why I like dota because it takes teamwork , individual skill and is bloody entertaining with tobi casting it. (:

don't know anout SC2 since I'm not into that. But HoN, LoL and dota 2 there's alot of teamwork, I'm way more into the LoL scene so I'll go with that, first of all you need to have a strategy with your team, perhaps It's a poke comp or aoe comp and you have to ban champions for whatever comp you're running, for a pokecomp you want to ban for example soraka to have less substain. and later on you need cordination to gankw ith the jungler and whoever is ganking your lane and also requires skill to get kills and minion farm and denying minion farm to your opponent, later on you need ALOT of cordination to win teamfights and 1 single teamfight can change the way a game is going.

Sc1 is considered the hardest pro game to ever be played. Similarly sc2 is extremely difficult. RTS games are very difficult because of the amount of things you need to be doing at once. It would be easier to understand if you played and I love CS 1.6 more than any other game but sc2 is in my honest opinion extremely harder than cs subtracting the team work aspect. It's very difficult to learn and when you do have the game figured out you're still terrible.

It's widely considered the most competitive game ever, despite it being in a 1v1 format. It's the amount of multi-tasking it takes that makes it require so much skill. SC:BW was even more difficult to manage your armies, economy, bases, battles, mini map, and making sure you don't make one wrong move during a fight while continually doing all of this.

you will never understand.

For a 12years old game? You sir is retarded.

+14k V1lat +5k virtus pro afaik

Yeah. RIGHT. So that means the number of CSS players watching any CSS stream is actually below 100?

People from LoL(developers etc) supporting game,because when you start LoL,client itself notify you about stream. We would have bigger numbers too if that would happen when you start steam,maybe not that big but bigger then now for sure.
