It’s more than a semantic concern, however. Unlike traditional sports, it’s nearly impossible to tune in to games that you don’t play personally. For instance, I’ve never been into Overwatch , and although I understand how the gameplay works, Overwatch League is completely unenjoyable to watch. You can’t appreciate the level of difficulty that certain moves take to execute unless you’ve attempted them yourself. This rule is almost universally applied across all of esports. Unlike traditional sports, where pure athleticism can be appreciated void of any tactical or technical knowledge, esports requires a higher degree of familiarity. At best, this means that viewership rarely crosses between games. At worst, this means esports isn't viewer-friendly and may never have what it takes to reach wider audien

Playing it low, slow, and sneaky pays off. It reduces the frustrating instances of being victimized by a third party ambush, results in much more consistent RP gain, and will inevitably get you through the ranks much faster than challenging every single squad that crosses your p

The inconsistency of the esports scene has resulted in some players leaving over the long-term. Disguised Toast, a popular Hearthstone streamer, recently returned a card reveal to Blizzard, stating that it felt disingenuous revealing an upcoming new card when he has issues with the state of the game as it sta

Beyond ensuring that everyone is, you know, actually having fun playing a video game, being a positive influence on the squad is more important than most give it credit for. Beyond practically guaranteeing that no-one will want to join up with you, unloading verbal diatribes on your squadmates isn't going to make reviving you seem like an enticing prosp

Back in the LEC, G2 won the Summer season before moving on to the World Championship. They advanced to the Worlds play-offs, racing past DAMWON Gaming and SKT to reach the Grand Final. Though FunPlus Phoenix took home the Worlds title, G2 Esports had a formidable year. PerkZ was a massive part of G2’s legendary run, in which they stood just one series away from a never-before-done grand slam. He fit into the AD carry role nicely, holding his own against the game’s b

Each change has caused a lot of frustration with players, sometimes resulting in key players permanently leaving the competitive scene. Qualifying is a long and arduous process, often involving the final days of a month spent playing for most of the day simply to retain a top spot - rewarding a grind more than actual skill. In addition, there is no official tournament client of the game. A disconnect between two opponents results in a match being replayed regardless of how far ahead one player was,, which has led to some controversial outcomes. There's also the fact that in the past few years, Blizzard has leaned hard into design philosophy centered more around RNG and less around skill, driving some pro players away from the game entirely - as seen when Lifecoach left the competitive sc

It left players who had been training for the next championship out of luck, and those associated with the esports production seemingly unemployed from one day to the n

Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League represented several of DC's problems, but fortunately it didn't take too long for DC to fix them. With both movies, it felt like DC was trying to copy the formula of The Avengers , but not in a good way. DC's team-ups didn't feel earned in the same way as Marvel's. Marvel took its time, while DC rushed toward throwing its biggest heroes together — and it showed. DC didn't make the same mistakes with Aquaman and Shazam!, which feel unique from anything made by Marvel. Since Justice League , DC has showed a willingness to dabble in various genres, tones, and styles. What DC has on the horizon is a sign that the studio is doubling-down on this appro
