Heroes of the Talk
Heroes of the Interview
Heroes of the Desk
There is no Heroes of the Storm. I'm going back to Civ. Why is this so true this is the only reason I watch pro SC2 over pro HOTS, in pro SC2 they actually play the damn game T__T It doesn't help that the games are so short, too. It's 15 minutes of gameplay AT BEST, then 5-10 mins desk, 5 min commercial, interview, desk, draft. Then 15 mins gameplay and again desk... etc. Games being so short is good and practical for casual players, but for pro games it's really bad.
They should really make this more fluent. Like when one Bo3 (Team A and B) finished, immediately start drafting the next Bo3 (Team C and D) when it's possible

Korean Super League does it much more quickly. The only time there is an extended break is between series and sometimes after 3 or more matches in a row in a longer series there will be a longer break. Barring unexpected technical problems it's definitely possible to reduce the downtime that they had yesterday.

Do they have an offline client though? I know blizz gave certain KR orgs access to an offline SC2 client, or at least I had heard that at some point in the last 5 years.

OGN has the advantage that they only play a single series. That means everything gets set up half an hour before the stream even starts, so there won't be breaks for players to set up their PCs, which tends to be very huge time sink, especially if something doesn't work perfectly. They also don't have to schedule for following matches. At HGC the teams of the succeeding series need to know when they have to start and likely won't be prepared that much earlier, so if a series or two are very short, it might take longer to gather all the players for the next series.
While there are quite a few breaks that could probably be avoided, comparing it to OGN is a bit unfair, because it's a completely different situation.
As for Starcraft leagues, setting up two PCs is easy, setting up 10 has a much higher chance that something goes wrong and takes time to resolve.

Wouldn't it make sense to get the players setup and ready before even starting the stream so the desk can talk and such like and use that time to get any issues solved

The good thing about the downtimes is, it gives me a chance to catch up on threads on TL and watch some SC2 ^^

The time gap between series is understandable, but I'm more focused on the time between matches during the same series compared to OGN.

That was the first game I watched the post game analysis because I wanted to know how they could throw so hard ^^
|
Speaking of Throws. PBA game 2 vs Fanatic. ....They fought so hard to get back, to just throw it away on decision making.
So indecisive about what to do after having actually taken a great fight. If you wasted more than ..10 seconds doing anything else after a won fight. Core is no longer an option.
|
Yeah, should have gotten boss and pushed with it I think, they were all so low going in on core.

Those were some weird Stage Dives
|
Missed all the games until now.
Seems like Fnatic lost this draft very hard.
|
This game is very strange. I've never seen this map played like this but it kind of makes sense
|
That was an exciting game.
|
I still don't know why they had picked Tyrande, there was no special synergy I could see
|
Estar not having their tank, and the replacement player not even being a warrior main showed
