EVO is like, the only big event for Fighting games. Most other majors get between 5k and 25k depending on the game being played at the time. SC2 is oversatured for something like this. | ||

This is the biggest event in the FGC, it combines a ton of games, and I'd imagine the fans of the other games are watching. So I don't think an sc2 tournament will easily be able to do this. Maybe the Grand Finals of WCS if they don't fuck up the hours. | ||

Didn't the first Dota 2 The Defense have like 2 million concurrent viewers? The one that was essentially the unveiling of the game. | ||

As long as he doesn't get grabbed Wobblez can't keep up with him stock for stock. He's taking aerial risks that Fox normally wouldn't need to take just to avoid getting chain grabbed. It's smart. | ||

I don't remember JoinDota ever releasing a number anyway according to valve TI2 had 567k http://blog.dota2.com/2012/09/the-2012-international/ | ||

Honestly, it's more comparable to a Shootmania (or something) player looking at the guys surrounding him, thinking his game is much bigger than it is, and claiming that they should be spoken of in the same breath as Quake without knowing the history of Quake. Even with the game being as old as it is, it's competitive history is tiny compared to the 'the traditional fighting game community'. It's your classic strong headed young guy trying to get respect from the old guard and flailing about when they don't want to freely give it. Smash Bros has the advantage of having the young youtube generation behind it though. Read into that however you will. | ||
