Way to piss off fans.
When they think about going to the next MSL finals they'll be more likely to think, "ah, fuck it, couldn't go last time"

What about the ceremony afterwards? Holding up the trophy, tears, emotions...will non of that be on the stage??

so disappointing wtf is wrong with that company

This.
Instead they ruin and make people wonder what they are doing and lose faith in the future of eSports.

I imagine it somewhat sucks for the players too, the crowd can either pump you up or make your really nervous, probably not nervous in the case of these two. This would ruin the experience of being in the finals, including the connection with your fans imo.

This is a very sad day.

This is why I enjoy PL finals so much....I love the massive crowds and atmosphere that comes with it.

I was expecting a crowd like this:

I've always been neutral about the OSL vs MSL debate, and always have thought it was the same. But it obvious which one is total shit now.

MBC

playing in a studio will rob this final of its drama

also I really cannot believe they said one reason for this is to remove distractions for the players...THIS IS THE FINALS, of course the pressure is supposed to be on. This is where nerves are tested, balls sized up, legends made...

perhaps not anymore :/

One would think that MBC had the brain to prep for a big stadium when they saw Flash and Jaedong in the semifinals, but nope, they stuck to their old, stupid plan just because their last final was not that popular. Companies ran by idiots deserve to lose their business to the competition.
It's a shame that KESPA fucked GOM even though Blizzard was sponsoring them, another example of supreme stupidity in the SC industry.
