I don't know why they don't list the game under the Brood War category. I think that would improve their viewercount with people coming in from the frontpage of Twitch and seeing Brood War in the top 12.

It actually really annoys me and pisses me off that they set it under SC2 and not BW. They did the same thing with all the other broadcasts so far, such as the Finals of the last league I think it was? Whatever the last BW thing Tastosis ended up casting was. It really annoys me way more than it should. If they are trying to get extra viewers honestly I thinking categorizing the stream under BW instead of SC2 would get them even more viewers. People would see 5k+ watching Brood War and be like wtf is going on? And then see that there is a real BW tournament happening.

i wonder if shine is observing the bw games as well, cause he's doing a terrible job.
which you wouldn't expect considering he was a (relatively) good pro lol

If they put it on Brood War, it's going to be the 13th most viewed game on Twitch, whereas it's now on 8th. In terms of streams, it's 9th overall vs all other streams. It's a symbiotic thing; it piggybacks off SC2's mindshare in Western audiences, and the increased visibility also helps audience counts.

Yeah I see where you're coming from, and really I don't think it is as my brain tries to make it. I'm pretty sure it is just the perfectionist inside of me that is annoyed by this being labeled under SC2 and I can see why they would keep it labeled as such.
