I followed SC2 esports for some time. Then I just... got tired of it. It just died.

Now Blizzard is trying their luck on Brood War again lol
Brood War never died though. The support for it is to this day HUGE in Korea and I believe other parts of Asia.

WoW is a top subscribed game in China still. They can deliver the bare minimum in quality now and those fucking Asians lap it up.

Ion Hazzikostas is a terrible leader too. Chris Metzen seems so quaint now.

Yeah, BW always had a following, but SC2 destroyed the chance of them having Dota2-level money in it.

Which is so hilarious they didn't get on DotA when it was IN THEIR LAP.

Don't forget, DotA started as a custom map in War Craft 3''s battlenet. They had every chance to scoop up that property and reap the benefits for at least a decade and then some.

I don't know anyone who actually plays Heroes of the Storm. It's either DotA, or League.

Chess should be in the Olympics.

I don't know... if dart is, why not?
Dude, have you seen darts? People are hype for that shit.

Since when is darts in the Olympics? I know table tennis is, but if you've ever seen profession tt then you know that is one intense game.

if it's in the Olympics, it's like the only sport where you can be fat. Such progress. Much acceptance.

What about curling? I'm sure there are fatasses being pro at it.

Maybe the guy throwing, but not the other guys who do the actual skating around.

Female curlers are ridiculously attractive. I don't know why. There was some Scottish chick a few years ago that had everyone online falling in love with her. Crazy.

Anyway, the hottest chicks in the summer Olympics are divers. It's no contest at all. In winter, it's figure skaters.
