Just talked about on GSTL. Info by Khaldor stating that Inori felt he couldn't go far in SC2 with his skills and decided to move to LoL.

Goodbye, Inori. You never got your GSL victory.

I hope that this time people won't act like it's the end of sc2. The competition is too high atm, there are too many professionals, so people will have to quit. Good luck inori!

but isn't LoL bigger? it's also a team sport which is harder in other ways because there are more things that are out of your control.

He did the best choice. . He would be a fool not to go full time on lol.

Sc2 is fucked up, and LoL is constantly growing.

This is the why no one can criticize also Destiny for the choice he made.

The SC2 scene is incredible saturated of "pro players" at the moment and it's very discouraging for allot of the lower tiers pros to stick with it. LOL is much more forgiving.

People inside this forum will say no, because they are heavy fanboys, so I advise you to not believe anyone and just try LoL yourself and find if this is true or not.

Well duh, when you have no results in over a year yeah you should switch games. It's why destiny switched, he hasn't had any good results in sc2 like ever (I am not counting show matches/online tournaments), every pro/semi pro that has retired has not had results in a year +.

Still hilarious how people say this means sc2 is dying because pros who don't have results in a year retire lol.


Good luck to inori!

IF anything the pro scene if SC2 is more predictable. As in your actually can tell if you have a shot or not. The lol community is much newer and less established so you might have a better shot there.

@blade55555: the people who are leaving can't even be considered "professionals" anymore, they are Grandmaster players, nothing else.

i'm not saying LoL is a harder game. What I said is it's harder in a lot of ways, I guess I should have worded it: "It's harder in other ways" because there is a team element which adds randomness into the game that you can't individually control. And I was asking a question, because LoL seems to be a lot bigger which begs the question that it probably is just as hard to be pro in LoL, or any game for that matter.

but for the sake of it, don't even respond to me because it's not worth derailing the thread.

But that's not to say they'll ever have results in league or another game. Their mechanics are good, but it's gonna take about a year, and who knows how good the pros now will be by then. Considering how many people play league, I don't think most of these player's chances aren't that great. Destiny has enough mechanics for a game like league but he still sucks more than most of the people who browse the subforum here on TL.

it's just as hard to break into the lol pro scene as it is for sc2, there are so many established teams right now in lol in korea that it would be really difficult to break into the scene in such short notice.

min/coca/puzzle/sc haven't made a splash at all yet. remember the bw players brave and grape who quit khan to play league? non-existent.

It's not even anything new, people have been retiring from sc2 for years now. People don't seriously think guys like Ensnare or Anypro are still actively practicing right? It's just a natural progression for people who simply don't have what it takes to hang with the established pro's. Inori had one of the worst GSTL records of any player who played more then 5 games, and i guess it finally took its toll. I hope he finds more success in League.

I confused Inori for Symbol if I must be sincere. Thank you for clarifying that he had almost no results, you made me search him on liquipedia.

On the other hand, he did a good choice anyway.

Destiny didn't retire for the results, or at least I think so. He didn't need to have results, to sustain himself or his family. He just needed a good load of viewers.

my point exactly.

I think if anything, if LoL makes these players happy, then they should play it.

It's not like Destiny is a professional in LoL or anything, I heard his stream numbers are quite bad nowadays as well ;o
