Don't think so, he said he was playing to spend time with his girlfriend, and wanted to stay away from ranked | ||

That's so untrue, I don't know why people seem to think map awareness transfers over. However It's likely a player from SC2 would recognise the importance of map awareness in LoL and work to improve it. | ||

That requires you to have a high level of game knowledge to apply in the first place, which Idra won't have much of yet. "Pure" mechanics insofar as what you expect to translate over from a totally different game has very little meaning. Pretty much. I got to mid-masters in sc2 in 3 months when it came out by purely outmacroing people with my BW mechanics, and it took me 2 years to get out of gold in LoL. | ||

How could you think it would transfer from one game to another that both have minimaps?! FOOLS I TELL YOU! FOOLS! + Show Spoiler + /sarcasm | ||

FOOLS! + Show Spoiler + /sarcasm From my perspective it took hundreds of games of league before my map awareness was even close to what it was in SC. Trying to figure out what the champions do, the constant cs + fighting at low levels + all the other stuff that was happening made me almost not see the minimap. :# | ||

Think about the logic you're using, would you say a good FPS player is going to be good at any game involving a gun too? | ||

The FPS player is not going to be good at any game involving a gun, but playing another game he will be at least decent in the aspects that are identical in both games. | ||

In the case of map awareness you have 2 games that are viewed from above at an angle, with an identical minimap in the exact same location of the screen. Even if it doesn't transfer over automatically I would say that after getting used to the gameflow a sc2 player will have an easier time adjusting to watching the minimap than someone who hasn't played a similar game will. It's actually on the other side of the screen. XD | ||
