I understand one of the biggest problems is that the prestige of a tournament is directly linked to the total prize money on offer. It makes total sense, bigger sums draws more hype, better teams and subsequently more revenue to organizers through all the various streams. If you feel that your thoughts are shared amongst other players, do you think other players would be willing to sacrifice total prize pool if that meant more money was spent on equipment, facilities and proper wages for event staff? To put it another way, do the current crop of professionals see dota2 as a cash grab which they want to capitalize on for the period of time they are on the scene, or do they have genuine concern for the long term survivability of the sport? If people do want to improve the scene, how far are we away from a properly regulated sport, with something like a regulators, transfer windows, standardization etc? | ||

That being said, I think that people have no idea the pressure professional players are under (myself included) and should consider any complaints they have about tourneys through such a lens. | ||

Also real sports casters don't go around shitting on teams, even if the team is bad. It's unprofessional, it looks bad on that caster, the station, and the league. They might say a team has been slumping or had a bad season but they're not going to tear a team or player a new asshole. It's not about "being nice", it's about saying unnecessary things. Everyone knows if a team is bad, no need to be ruthless about it. Real sportsmen also don't insult their amateur teammates and flame them for being garbage at a game. I've seen numerous casual tennis and football games with a combination of pro & amateur players and never ever has one of the professional players talked about how garbage his teammates are even when they ruined a pass, missed a shot or made another obvious mistake. If anything they encouraged their worse amateur teammates. Not saying the point about the commentators is void, but if EE wants to improve the scene he can take a look in the mirror and start with himself, especially when regarding flaming. | ||

P.S. How can a guy with such a negative nickname ETERNAL ENVY achieve greatness? No offense(again, sorry!) but if you are "eternaly envious" of someone, all that negative shit may influence you/your teammates. Maybe this is the reason why you are "forever second"? Sorry, no offense, but try to think about it. | ||

There's a huge difference between saying there's garbage teams to saying it on stream. I'm pretty sure even the garbage teams are aware that are some garbage teams even if they think they are good '-'. | ||
