how come a company this creatively bankrupt is so successful? Their flagship games are
>dota but worse
and
>cs but worse
and both dota and cs are free as well so why would anyone play inferior versions?

>t.Korean and saw 90% of the guys in my middle school flock to PC cafes to play LoL, PUBG or OW after school
>>
>>739354292
PC cafes are still a thing there? Why, you have widespread internet access
>>
>>739354324
They are all undergoing a financial crisis after COVID
As for why-
Why would a parent buy their kids a gaming PC?
Where else will kids be able to hang out after school away from their parents?
Why would a teenage kid want to play games in his room alone instead of with his friends?

>>739353928
Because ideas mean nothing if you don't act on them and don't execute rhem

>>739353928
for LoL it was partially being free to play and getting lucky and partially actively sabotaging DotA-Allstars by nuking the official forums and replacing the website with an ad
I will never forgive that slimy faggot Guinsoo and his butt toy Pendragon

have you tried having parents who love you?

They employed the strategy Blizzard used to use before they went full retard, which was taking genres people were interested in that were inaccessible and making them accessible by dumbing them down. This worked very well until they too went full retard.

It was always shit

also only china plays league

Kgooks have the worst taste in anything
>music: Kpoop

They also copied dota chess and hearthstone. They really are a bunch of hacks
>>
Why do Europeans play football? Why do Americans play NFL? Why do the Japanese play baseball?
Because it's already mainstream. When you're a teenager and your friends all play League together and talk about football you will likely end up playing League and watching football. This is momentum.

The real question is how they reached mainstream in the first place.

>>739355746
>and your friends all play League
if you're friends with "people" who play league you're well on your way to transitioning and killing yourself before age 30
>>
>>739353928
They have laser focused appeal on Asians, with gacha whores and coomer skins
>>
>>739355768
Every boy in my school is on their way to transition and will kill themselves at the age 30?

>>739353928
Lol is significantly better than Dota but I agree about valorant, that shit makes no sense
>>
>>739355827
China has their own League clone, Koreans are the ones that play League(they used to, but Gen Alpha plays Valorant and Roblox), Russia and SEA played DotA

Everyone else itt has already genuinely answered your question, so I contribute Sex with Yordles instead.

At least in Korea the mainstream games were

SF2-> KoF+VF and others->Starcraft->R6(I think? was barely alive back then)->Wow>League, Sudden Attack(genuine slop)+Minecraft and mobile games(for elementary school)->Overwatch->PUBG->Valorant and Roblox

In that order I think

How embarrassing....maybe try making a good controller instead of crying with your brown clitty leaking

kek they're probably already making something similar with deadcock

That's very unkorean of you

>never really played LoL a decade and a half ago, went from HoN to Dota
>fuck it, I should try to see how it plays these days
>make account
>you still have to pay to unlock the roster
How the FUCK is this scam still ongoing
