North America of course got into the tournament bracket and played League the way our soccer teams play soccer: as if the entire experience were a foreign limb badly grafted onto an inappropriate body.

Even though we (well, Icefrog and Riot) invented the sport.

True, I forgot Moscow 5. They were big. Last League season was dominated by SK and China though, up to and including the finals.

[url=#user_comment_350330]@Marabunta[/url]: I think it's the kind of drama I should try to avoid commenting. It's like a whirlpool who sucks everybody involved into a shitstorm.

South Korea seems childish at the game because all the top pros play LoL.

SouthKorea prefear LOL over DOTO. That's probably the reason why they are not so great at DOTO to begin with.

@Andrew Hall: MoscowFive was one of LOL's biggest teams, and it came from Russia (with love). Now the whole rooster has moved to GambitGaming, which is less relevant but still important.

@Andrew Hall: aren't most of the players from gambit gaming russians ?

Also, I agree with Chesthead.

Latin America: "Is there a U.S. player on our team? If so, I am suicidally feeding my lane to protest American imperialism."

Very interesting to note the contrasts between DOTA and LOL.

The Chinese seem to play the same way in both games, but in LOL SK is an experienced powerhouse nation known for spectacular plays...and I can't remember ever seeing a Russian player.

[url=#user_comment_350318]@Fenbrae[/url]: You comparing chinese and koreans, you never played with, judging by pro scene, to russians you usually playing with in pubs. yay Jo drawn a pro scene version, where is no your "usual russian pub kid"s. Experience of baddies is always bad.

In my personal experiece:

China: "This game is my job, i must achieve perfection because failure dishonors me".
South Korea: "I wish i was playing SC2 right now..."
Russia: "I will feed myself to the enemy and then swear at my team in Russian because i'm braindead".

@Oliver König: Frenchie here. The surrender joke is old now, but we sure tend to complain a lot. I admit I, and the people I play with tend to go toward the Russian style: go big or go home

I'd think the French are more likely to be polite rather than just surrendering out of fear, that WW2 thing is overrated. Never met any other German players though, so no idea. I'd figure we'd be cooperative, but liable to start bitching if in the defensive.

Huh, I'm surprised at the Korean one. I thought those RTS freaks would surely pulverize everything with Meepo.

Can I continue this strip in one comment?
Italy: "EVERYTHING IS BROKEN. EVERYONE SUCK. I'M THE ONLY GOOD PLAYER."
France: "I SURRENDER PLS DON'T KILL ME FF PLS"
Germany: "Remember, no fun."

I'm italian and yeah, this is the situation in EUW. Yeah, is that bad in Italy.

[url=#user_comment_350288]@Ryugo[/url]: I think the Brazilian teams will be much more fun. Until they meet German teams.

It's because of those strips that I think there should be a brazilian scene.

For a Dota comic, this was hilarious.

As a South Korean living in the United States, I can agree the middle panel is correct to an extent, at least, in my case.

Ogre Magi Carry with Magic Stick -> Arcane Boots -> Sceptre -> Bloodstone -> Boots of Travel wins over 60% of my games.

All shall cower before the might of dumb luck.
