it's basically been on repeat for me at work this week
I am conflicted about this esports thing
as a person who dislikes sports, I have always condescended to the shouting, jumping up-and-down commentary and reaction to sports TV
"he goes left he goes right hes COULD. GO. ALL. THE. WAAAAAAAAAY!" ... et cetera
however, something about watching/listening to the LOL worlds matches 2014 has me bouncing around in my chair with the near misses and ganks
am I, myself, implicated in this sociological timesink I have mocked for so long???
do I love sports in reality but merely detest PHYSICAL reality such that the two offset one another?
sorry, pete. you're a sports person.
so we're going to seoul right?
also, I just finished the Smash Brothers doc
AND PETE ALL I WANT IS TO PLAY MELEE
I think we would have to go to Seoul RIGHT NOW
Yeah. Anytime this week basically. Tickets to see the finals are only $25-50.
if you're looking for something to get your heart racing
three very beautiful team fights
yeah! I loved every minute
REALLY hard not to root for EDG...gotta love the underdogs and that korean ADC looks like a real jerk
Yeah I was rooting for EDG the whole time.
fair warning: 70 minute game! but a HUGE near miss
very exciting, especially near the end
Favoriting right now. I watched some of Cloud9 vs. Alliance the other day. Very different kind of play.
