@heroicgg Yes admin. It was YOU. PERSONALLY. Can't stay mad at you for long Heroic admin you a cutie fr

what leaving HEROIC does to a mf

@DumbsYT Completely insane to me because the template for this already exists. Counter strike esports is infinitely more entertaining because it doesn't have franchising, and you *can* have shit like 5 random Bosnians making grand finals at a major (remember the Finnish ENCE?)

A C*NTENT CREATOR'S TAKE ON ALL THE COSTREAMING DRAMA: It is crazy for people to shift blame to costreamers and creators, when the core problem is way deeper Costreaming is the byproduct of people WANTING to watch LEC/LCK/LCS, quite literally any esports But the main product is just not good enough for them to actually spend their time on watching it The main reason for that? Lack of personality, lack of story and lack of genuine "entertainment" Los Ratones was an amazing example of what GOOD personality, AMAZING story and GENUINE entertainment can bring to the table I had never watched 3 weeks of LEC in a row since 2019 before LR came to the scene, I was quite literally sitting on my couch watching LEC like I'm a 40-year-old dad watching my favorite local football team And the same happened to my friends, who had NEVER previously watched ANY League esports matches And I can 100% say, the same happened when KC and Mkoi first got into LEC in their respected fanbases What do these 3 have in common? Personality, a good story and genuine entertainment But you can't keep the hype up forever The product of "League esports" has fundamental problems, that cannot be fixed overtime without doing anything You CANNOT manufacture stories, they need to be created by the players/owners themselves Riot (and other esports orgs) can only ENHANCE them I've seen multiple esports orgs try to dip their toes into genuine content creation, which I do find amazing because sometimes the ideas are fun and can only be made with the budget they have But seeing videos with 500k views about "fun guessing games" content and then seeing videos with LITERALLY LESS THAN 100 VIEWS ABOUT THEIR TEAM OR PLAYERS (yes 1-0-0) IS DIABOLICAL Because the teams ARE NOT able to utilize these numbers at all because the CONTENT isn't coming from the players themselves, it is coming from the TEAMS trying to set the content up and VIEWERS playing along the videos There are very few players streaming/creating content, being a personality or be entertaining outside of them going to the LEC arena and playing League Just compare it to Cloud 9/TSM/Fnatic players back in the day I would follow people people cus they GENUINELY WERE PASSIONATE about not just being good at the game but also being entertaining (obviously League itself was in a different state as well but you get the point) The cultural impact that Los Ratones had for western League esports was quite literally 3x of all LCS teams combined in the last 3 years Fuck man, Baus could watch paint dry for 1-hour and it would have more cultural impact than LCS finals Little bit of a side note but teams having content creators for the team making content, "can" be a valid strategy the nullify the void of "the team not being entertaining enough" Good strategy in theory, but getting random content creator with high views doesn't do anything, the creator HAS TO BE GENUINELY included in the team, emotionally and thematically Good examples of successful ones are Tarik for Sentinels and KeshaEUW for G2 But that's a whole other story on how esports teams cooked that one So what can be done about it? The core problem is that product of League esports currently is boring, lacks passion and entertainment And it has a lot to do with fr*nchising because it enables the teams/owners/players to basically... do nothing Obviously, everyone is still trying their hardest to win, keep the content going and all that... but it's not enough You already made it, so even the most passionate player/owner/team cannot keep their PEAK passion forever You are still getting paid, you are still able to compete and you are still able to even win your region's league So why bother doing anything else? And that's where you lose the audience And you cannot blame any owner/player for that, it is just how franchising works And I know the OWNERS WOULD HATE if Riot got rid of the franchising, after all, they invested 10+ millions to be part of it But I also assume they do not like their investment being valued less than a shawarma + coke PEOPLE WANT STORIES LET PEOPLE HAVE STORIES I would honestly love to see just some 5 unknown EXTREMELY PASSIONATE Bosnian guys destroy Tier 1 teams for a season Quite literally would be there every day watching that if they would be winning People love underdog stories, and that is something not possible with no gateway to actually play and prove yourself That is how you create new fanbases, new stories and new banger entertainment... organically With PASSION from the players who want to prove themselves Not just in the game, but outside of it as well PASSION IS THE KEY but the lock is missing Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk
