They werent given the players names or something so they keep having to get someone to give them the info. Sounds like someone screwed up planning this and HD and Husky had to cover. Also their job is to get the game going as quickly as possible then worry about casting so there's as little delay as possible. That's why they're always looking down at the monitor.

Its not hd and huskys fault they have had to fill 10 minutes with no leads, seems like one of the players was taking his sweet ass time getting ready and they were clearly not informed, they filled time well.

Is there going to be any way to download these VODs? Does MLG let you buy them or anything?

They're doing a great job filling time - can't imagine how awkward it must be to talk for so long without a game.

It's the first SC2 MLG. There is no definitive seeds to use. This was obviously going to happen for the first event. Give it time.
Lee Jae Dong proved that a focus on mechanics and execution could solve problems in the StarCraft game strategy.

adding people to friends lists for tournament games?.. blizz needs to sort this out


Yeah it seems like the issues with this cast is that they aren't prepared. That isn't really HD/Husky's job. They should have a tech staff setting things up and providing them with info.

HD and Husky are honestly just as good as the other casters.


I was worried about them casting. Husky is sort of carrying HD though. They are doing a pretty good job at filling time though.

Machine vs Incontrol is bullshit though. It's the same thing that happens with Day9 and Tasteless though, always first round against one another.


If this was really a random seed, Im actually quite happy that there is only 2 big matches in round 1 (incontrol vs machine and ajtls vs select), a LOT of known vs unknown games


It would have been better if they just cut out the unknowns and had it be a 32-man tournament.

I have to say HD acts really professionally, despite the break doesn't get nervous at all

ugh, why do these tournaments have the casters setting up the games??? takes so long and very distracting for the casters. Just have a tourney admin set up the game, invite the players and casters, then leave.

I really hope they utilize future commercial breaks a little better. This is a bit ridiculous >.<

The thing I hate about HD/Husky the most is that they're always loud and have this forced energy. Early on I was also turned off by them as they got basic fundamental parts of the game incorrect.

This time they're being calm and hopefully they learn more about SC2 as time goes on.

Sorry if it's been cleared/raged on before - but - how can Machine and Incontrol *possibly* have to play in Round 1?


The seeds for this tournament were completely random so that's just bad luck


Oh wow, even considering it's double elimination, still doesn't seem like the best call to go with random seeds (imo)

How do you do seeds on the first event? You can't rate people based off nothing. Their seeding is based off their own events, so first event can't have seedings.


The same way they do it for every other single tournament out there? Anyone who has been following the SC NA scene for 2-3 months can pull some seedings out of their ass and they'd be 9000 times better that Machine v Incontrol in R1, even with only 2 groups. There's some other questionable matchups in the tree as well, but whatever, this discussion is pointless.

I agree that Incontrol and Machine in round 1 is bad, but you can't seat people based off nothing (since MLG uses their event results for seedings). There should have been some liberties taken with the brackets to ensure this wouldn't happen though.
