Couldn't blizzard just give all of the big gaming leagues LAN? That way there would be no piracy and esports fans would be happy. Right?

Oh lol. How could we forget? Everything from MLG Dallas to "CHILL GET OUT" reminds us

As Oprah would say 'They do not forgive, they do not forget and they have nine thousand employees all over the world screwing over esports and progamers everywhere."

That really just makes me frown, the amount of crap Blizzard makes us deal with isn't beneficial to Esports or their game, and when asked about it at HoTS preview they just say 'it's on their list' It's pretty stupid.

They didn't say that.

Chris Sigaty said that because of all the stuff that happens behind the scenes (something about their server maintenance being complex idk) it's not an option to add LAN in the near future.

Paraphrasing of course, but I don't think beating a dead horse will help the current situation.

Blizzard aren't incompetent, they didn't put in LAN on purpose.


They didn't include LAN because they would rather retain complete control over their product then cater to ESports or our community.

Maybe MLG is just in on an elaborate conspiracy to get LAN added into the game.

Apparently there are been minor problems with battle.net at most big LAN events although maybe none as bad as MLG Dallas.

For the record, Blizzard had an internet problem with Battle.net at their Blizzcon a while back, they're just being reluctant and arrogant, it isn't MLG's fault.

Not what I heard on SOTG by Leah, but I'm not going to argue over it.

Do people actually think this is Blizzard's fault? The only event that has had major issues is MLG, we're far pass the point where we can blame their incompetence on Blizzard.

Gee, Dallas all over again, here we come. I wonder how many people are going to say MLG isn't at fault for failing to get enough bandwidth to account for the lack of LAN again?

You assume that it is at all feasible for MLG to get the connection required at these venues.

Blizzcon.

Yeah, their own tournament.

You would think they would take a hint.

Regardless of whether Blizz should provide LAN for tournaments, MLG should prepare for known factors. The amount of bandwidth required is a known factor. MLG is at fault for their lack of preparation.
