Pikachu isn't lolbroken like in 64, but Axe still does really well with Pikachu! At least he's a top 10 character^^ Axe vs Mango Axe vs Dr. PP | ||

If it isn't a blue party, I'm not going. | ||

Getting a stream on TL: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/user-streams/175682-streaming-on-teamliquid-v20 Submit an event: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/tl-community/432202-tl-calendar-event-criteria Note that in some cases, TL staff will make an account and link the stream without the organization having to register. That may be the best course of action here, in which case you should beg an interested mod to do that. | ||

I'd say there was a fair chance of some Melee being featured / self-pushed onto the featured events list. Im pretty sure their interests are in raising SSB interest. + Show Spoiler + "little to no casual scene" isnt an insult btw, its just melee doesnt have much of a scene outside of tournaments / weekly smash-ups where people actively travel hours on end to attend them, that isnt really casual by todays standards | ||

So if people start watching the game being played......BOOM! The casual player scene is back. People will start bringing out their old Gamecubes and play again. And even in the slim chance that doesn't happen, it will still be okay. StarCraft 2 has a pretty small "casual" player scene compared to other eSports, and it's still one of the top 5 eSports. Even when it was top dog back in 2010 and 2011, the casual player scene was incredibly small for the high viewer count. And if you're talking non-player casual, then StarCraft 2 likely has one of the largest non-player based viewer counts (based on comparatively low number of players that are active on ladder, it would be ignorant to believe that the viewer count is solely player based.). So I don't really see the same problem you see. I think the biggest problem that's going to arise is if the new Smash Bros is better or as good as people think Melee is, are they going to stick with Melee or switch or both? | ||

I assume the reason being is due to the fact the SC2 community hates League of Legends and so TeamLiquid is being stubborn about adding a LoL team. LoL is a great game and is far more successful as an e-sport. If e-sport teams want to survive they have to adapt and right now everyones adapting to the popularity of LoL until blizzard gets their shit together Liquid should do so also. Same reason we don't sponsor CoD players, Teamliquid was never about preaching to the masses. | ||

They really should, as a new really good competetive Smash Bros would be epic! Nope, basically no support from Nintendo. In fact, they have tried to stop tournaments from being streamed in the past. Brawl sucked as a competitive game, so there is a mod called Project M which tried to "correct" Brawl to be more competitive. | ||
