Livestreams from teamliquid have more people on them I'm pretty sure, some 3700 people on roffles stream alone for osl finals, did that many people watch a finals on teamliquid in the past?? Also, progamers aren't all in bad health, look at Air Force Ace for example. They are a proteam with some pretty damn good players and every single member of the team is in good health. I think he means that it's losing a following in korea. It's definitely growing in the foreign scene, now that we can get streams, etc. easier | ||

Just letting the Netizens run wild with their imagination isn't helping MBC's popularity. Good thing that SC2 is coming. Otherwise, I'd be predicting the fall of e-sport within this decade. | ||

I think all things considered people have a right to 'freak out' over how much of a crappy deal this is for the fans, both Korean who will now not be able to attend and foreign who will miss out on the atmosphere of a finals with the players in the same room as the fans - which a lot of us appreciate. Also 'which again, at most would have been about a 1000, even if open to the public' this is completely inaccurate. Especially for a finals with such high profile players. Even the shoddiest of finals (*coughKwanroCalmcough*) attracts more than 1000 people. I meant that given the knowledge of the event location (and size), the attendence at most would be around a thousand people (even if open to the public, as opposed to only fanclubs/family/teams/etc), thus why it was already not going to be an 'epic' scene (like WCG/OSL). I wasn't stating that given unlimited seating/space, there would be at most a 1000 people in attendance. | ||

Since it had to be scheduled before they knew what the final ticket will look like, and attendance has been low in the past, MBC figured its better to have a smaller venue that is packed than a huge one that is mostly empty. What would be more 'epic', seeing a full room of people cheering, or seeing an empty chair or two between every person? Like I stated above, I can't really fault them for the smaller room, but I can (and do) for the 'virtual studio'. | ||
