it's refreshing to hear a commentary without the 'filler' stuff. Some silences where observers are simply observing and wondering, like it's normal in other sports.

That works on TL because it's heavily moderated but you still cant let trolls get to you (if you do you'll just end up replying to 20 ppl a day on reddit). You're going into your finals match and you're thinking about what some random dude on TL is saying, it's just a waste of time and energy. Giving importance to his post will have a negative impact on you mentally and you're giving the person what he wants.

Be happy with your performance, you got to the finals and showed good games throughout the event. Who gives a fuck about some random dude on TL? This was another extremely successful tournament, fuck the jealous haters, keep giving BW exposure with quality events and force Blizzard's hand to get involved in the game. Great event, hope to see more of you guys in the future.

Was hoping for a better series, but not surprised by the sweep.

Congrats to Draco.

Draco almost beat a beast like Larva in a best of 3, he's definitely in great shape.

Aww I was hoping for a bo7

Very good play by Draco, and impressive performance by inc as well. Looking forward to more remastered events! It feels like ten years ago!

That was fun 15,000 viewers for the finals is pretty solid. It would be nice if Blizzard would support these events with at least some advertising, or at the very least, not break the game with a patch right before the finals. I still feel that there's more people out there that would enjoy the chill atmosphere and humor that never knew it was happening.

Tastosis won the Xmas sweater (read: swagger) contest though, no doubt in my mind. Totally lovely, would like a first-hand account of how it compared to a recent Homestory Cup.

The tournament was nicely organized and I enjoyed watching bw again. I hope we can see more of this perhaps in a more serious setting! Thank you for organizing this

Thanks for tuning in guys.

Was an absolute blast and I thought it was fun to get to know some of these players a bit better and revisit some of the old greats like Sheth and WhiteRa

The viewership for an event on monday-wednesday was incredible AND it wasn't really advertised at all.. amazing. We had around 10k+ with peaks (after host) of 32k and a high today around 15k. For Broodwar at these hours / days is AMAZING. We got great feedback and hope to springboard this into more events in 2018.

I'm highly motivated to do my part. If you are one of those guys who were trashing on the event beforehand please reroute those feelings towards helping make what you want more possible as opposed to shitting on the things you don't prefer.. I don't think anyone looks at this and HATES IT but they were sad it wasn't exactly what they wanted (a top tier seriously casted foreigner bw event). I'd like for us to have BOTH and no amount of toxicity is going to make that happen.

Anyways, thanks for watching and cheers to you all <3

I enjoyed every second of this tournament that I got to watch. The casters were hilarious, especially incontrol with the artosis impressions. Congrats to Draco, but even more, congrats to incontrol for getting 2nd place.

His truth bomb in reality is an idiot bomb, without those 4 you wouldn't even see a foreign BW event. His statement is the exact opposite of what they're doing. Event-wise BW already has nothing, they're giving the foreign scene exposure. Do you think Blizzard would ever consider hosting BW events if they don't see it being profitable in the slightest way? What they're doing is actually helping the growth of the game, by seeing consistent viewership Blizzard might eventually consider hosting foreign events which would obviously be beneficial for the entire community.

The community should be way more supportive, everyone's in the same boat here. At the end of the day we all love the game and wanna see it grow, that's the only thing that matters.

This was a blast, and I'm amazed how many people were watching, too, especially with the influx from shroud's stream. (looking down to see 30k+ people watching broodwar in 2018, I suddenly felt like I'd taken a time machine back to 2009 again.)

It's been many, many years since I've laughed anywhere near this hard at a live cast of ANYTHING. I'd love if somebody could compile together all the highlights of the 3 day cast because some of those bizarre tangents were solid gold. Thanks a heap to iNcontroL, Arty, Tasteless and Day9 for doing this I'm really hoping you're right about this springboarding more BW events next year, to to fill in those long gaps between ASL seasons.

edit: and congrats to Draco too! I was super impressed with his play here and at the ZOTAC cup as well, he's the man to watch out for I think.
