There is a dark streaming platform on which a phenomenon is occurring these days, that phenomenon is well known to me and is called STARCRAFT.

Yes, Starcraft:remastered found on facebook gaming a perfect platform for the spread of streams and tournaments that would not see light in places where the English language rules such as tl.net or twitch. On this platform unknown players to us people that has followed the competitive bw scene from years, are making a name for themselves and dragging more than positive numbers relative to their twitch peers. On Twitch an average a Latin streamer of bw has between 3-10 viewers, on facebook, that streamer can potentially reach 50 or 60 people watching his content, as long as that streamer knows where to promote his stream.

Facebook groups such as TDR, CSG, Starcraft Chile, Starcraft Latino, etc., makes the task of finding suchs streams easy to the non-hardcore starcraft players and potential casual viewers.

if you wanna know more about this obscure scene that is happening in Latam and facebook i will link you a few streams that u may like.

Also, there is a bunch is small tournaments happening all arround facebook.

3vs3 hunters tournaments, 1vs1 latam only tournaments, low level tournaments, high level tournaments, fastest tournaments, name it and you have it, theres always someone streaming a tournament with prize money which is to me INCREDIBLE. Just a few minutes ago Dyna and Ozuna played on a tournament finals for 400 Soles, with 300+ people watching. No one on tl or twitch knows about this things.

i want to also mention that in the last few months and under the figure of a very carismatic caster named OliverPatrick, 2 huge companies have sponsored a few tournaments: Movistar and Pringles. Also there is a growing interest in Starcraft Leagues and people are beggining to understand that money is important for the growth of the scene. i heard people from all over latam saying that they would donate money to organize a tournament or live event after covid is gone.

amazing stuff really...

this makes me belive that sc:r is going to be a huge thing in latam in years to come and that my dream of making a professional scene in latin america is possible.

You can get to the facebook streaming part by visiting the fb.gg URL. I've also just found it for the first time a few days ago, after Mixer announced its shutdown.

So the site is really not great to navigate.
When I search for Starcraft, then it only shows Starcraft II as a game. When I search for "star", it bugs out every single time ("sta" or "starc" work fine lel).

The usability is just like with videos in my FB feed: complete trash.
It's like FB is purposely going against any established standards, and it angers me every time I watch and wants to pause a video on FB. And the same behaviour appears with their streaming.

Yep finding bw streams is difficult if you are not part of some groups like tdr csg etc..

This is weird, I cannot even find "Starcraft brood war" or "Starcraft remastered" when browsing games on FB. Only SCII shows up.
