There was some new stuff about runes that looked cool, like being able to shoot snakes onto people's faces and summon these demon bear things, I think. | ||

It literally astounds me. I guess Day9 really is a deity or genius, or something transcendent, because a multimillion dollar company can't do something that he can. It's really really hilarious and yet sad how true that is. Shoestring budget with volunteer staff >>>>> billion dollar corporation >.> The worst thing is not only are we missing out on all these games, we also missed out on tastosis commentating the GSL. So basically instead of having a good GSL week and no blizzcon, instead we have a painful GSL week (except Idra, he did a great job) and no blizzcon matches. | ||

appearantly BlizzCon team including Co-Founders of Blizzard Entertainment wanted to organize a tournament with big names, and regarding IP rights, tournament organizers should apply for a tournament license. So, what happened is Blizzard , before organizing this tournament , didn't apply to the Legal department of the corporation for the license. So, yes the battle.net is working they are playing matches but they can't broadcast it as a tournament. Blizzard didn't apply to Blizzard for Blizzard tournament. + Show Spoiler + jk | ||

What a hero! Yeah I take back what I said about him, I would rather watch that WC3 match I was complaining about then just sitting here waiting for the SC stream to come up eventually soon | ||
