My entertainment is almost fully on KZbin. I feel like it is selfish to hold such large+expensive events since there is no point in paying that much for seats. I would probably not even go to an event like this even if it where for free since I know how much it costs, and how many people need such money that he basically wasted. To me, I feel like I would have committed a crime for doing such a thing. But, I don't usually get offended by it anymore since most people on KZbin are selfish, and most commentators are not bugged by it, rather they enjoy it. Once, my family was rich, and they did spend on useless things like building a house(that was not complete due to the poverty state that hit us all, all of a sudden). And since then, I am grateful to all those who value money and don't waste it. Sadly, I got to meet Ludwig and many others on KZbin, when I was so called "rich." So, he bin there for a while, and although I felt anger towards his expenses, it is not my money to be like Oh, you should have done this or that, and when it was my parent's money, I didn't intervene and tell them what they should have spend it on. When you live in richness, the only thing you really care about is spending it on anything that you can without carrying/rethinking your steps/be considerate of what others are living in(you lack empathy), but when you realize that at some point, you can be/are not that well off, you really realize how bad I was for acting all selfish rather than help those who were like me now, but in the past.

@@ericforsyth Sports die off just like video games. Games like CS, LoL, Dota, etc. have been going strong, and even gaining popularity in the case of LoL especially, for decades. Whereas typical sports have actually been getting less viewership. Software can be updated, Dota -> Dota 2. CS 1.6 -> Source -> GO. If anything, it's far more easier to update an e-sport than change an entire physical sport.

[@ericforsyth]

@@bradenallen1241: Sports don't need updating, because they don't become outdated as quickly as software. It will be much more difficult for LoL to retain relevance for the next 100 years (or even 10) than for any given physical sport. If they somehow do, kudos to them, but I doubt that tattoo will age well, in more ways than one.

[@ebarobyre2720]

@@ericforsyth Even better, he's got a built in story for life. It's a slightly worse version of getting one for a super niche underground hobby which is infinitely better than any mainline sport where everyone knows the teams

Wish the tattoo didn't look so bad tho.

if lud goes pro ill spend 5K for a ticket to see him in worlds

[@PluralityMoreCommon]

Can't wait for my CLG Fiddlesticks skin when Lud carries those nerds to NAs first worlds in 2025.

[@eru4708]

I am glad to see that Ludwig likes League again, maybe we'll see him play with Tyler1 again.

[@Genius-lp7pr]

That video showing both players was like a whole anime backstory episode hyped me up so much

[@fuzzwobble]

Pyosik had a troll in his Twitch chat tell him that if he wanted a Kindred skin so bad, to 'win Worlds nerd'. Context: Winners of worlds get skins made for their champs in it. Absolute unit goes "I'll show you!" and goes pro out of nowhere, goes to the grand final, wins, and does so on his favorite champ just to get it a skin. What a fucking boss. Get rekd Twitch chat.

[@devinmurphy6575]

Just want to throw it out there, both teams were playing insanely well. They weren’t bad. It’s just that each team was playing so well they could just claw back the leads the other team had.

[@j.prt.979]

Right. It’s like saying that two players who are just clipping each other back and forth in Smash are playing sloppy and letting the other person bring it back.

So weird that atrioc made such a massive mistake. He’s usually so balanced and normal.

[@AWESOMEvance]

[@HoHhoch]

What a storyline for this year's worlds. Faker taking back his throne versus a veteran running through the gauntlet to grab a championship before retirement. Both of them went the same high school at the same time.

[@Madillusionist]

Lud doing a recap is more entertaining than the actual event.

[@wabbajack8283]

I know this is a joke but the Worlds this year is actually insane and the best so far IMO. The hype is unreal and the storyline is almost movie-like. An underdog story with a rich and fleshed out background from both sides. We might never see a run like this for years.

[@Jaytwos]

Who had Ludwig getting scammed for 10s of thousands of dollars every month on their 2022 bingo card?

[@starstriker4960]

Poor atrioc, without world tour now that tattoo definitely won’t be panning out

[@jinnotjim]

Luds storytelling ability is S+ tier.

Watching this now. Hearing Lud bring up SWT at the very end as a fallback for his homie Atrioc is so sad.

That crosses a line in my book. If a friend of mine disinvited my other friends, I wouldn’t invite them to anything ever again. We probably wouldn’t be friends anymore.

@@MasterCalvin45 Only because of your comment I looked further into the whole comment section. Dude, it seems like a mistake you made unintentionally, but it's still a mistake. Going around in the comments and telling everyone "it's not how it was " and not standing up for the mistake, no matter how inisgnificant it might be, is pretty much showing that you're not able to accept it as it is.
