Its different. If you like games like dota or csgo. You like this slow build up that explodes into a few seconds of action. Heroes has a bit more constant action and not that insane action spikes. Or in other words most people lack the attention span to enjoy games where you aren't allowed to blink or miss the whole game.
Which is why I usually have to watch a cs match 2 times. As I usually get to bored and miss half of the important plays, since I don't bother to check when the casters start to scream.
Different people different tastes. But as one can see, way way more people like watching this slow build up that explodes into one quick battle over constant action all over the place. Don't think every game should be the same just because the most people enjoy it so I am rather happy that we get more options when it comes to spectating esports.

The LR here is so slow
25k tons of passion and yet on TL...
edit: to be honest, now that most of the initial hype is gone, i do think HotS is not a great expectator e-sport. Its probably too messy and as said above, there is no burst of hype. In this sense its kinda like SC2 imo.

TL vs fnatic next, always good games 
|
With SC2 you can see and appreciate the subtleties of play, the little things, slowly appreciating a strategy unfold. Heroes is like constant action but I feel like the more I play the game and the better I get at it the more I appreciate it as a spectator sport.

I still like SC2 more than heroes, as an expectator. But i shoudn't be talking too much, i don't really watch other e-sports, i just feel like "i get it", but not playing those games makes it hard to enjoy 
edit: hype! Fnatic looked a bit shaken, despite the win. Its going to be hard.

so about this draft:
[21:45:20] <Snugglebutt> i assume tl banned zeratul to save athero embarrassment
|
fell abit out of loop on sc2 since lotv is so different from wol x3. Guess it really does help if you have ingame knowledge. Watching Seagull stream Overwatch ... he sometimes explains his actions and I am like wtf ? Would have never noticed that just from watching the game.
:< gotta see the vods my internet decided to let me only see low ... so i can hear the casters lol.

VP is about to play Azmodan on BHB if anyone is interested

I don't think they mind playing vs vikings, but again, i don't see why anub would be a problem

it's not about playing vs vikings, it's about taking Shad's comfort picks from him

Well Gall can still attack during that so it's not too bad unless they can burst all of him at once.
edit: although now with SSS kharazim it's possible.
