What? Jinro goes marine + tank + medivac every game, and you're saying IdrA is predictable? Jinro is doing the epitome of standard TvZ: get 2 bases, move out with marine/tank.
Edit: unless you're saying that they're both predictable and Jinro is just playing better..

EDIT: Seriously, weve been waiting for this showmatch for a long time, and you decided to pre-record this? I dont get it. It's not pre-recorded, it's just replays, they're casting them live. they are not. the "pauses" between games to load up the new VoD are live, cause the sound is completely different. the whole casting of each game is pre recorded Then how come between one of the games you could hear iNcontrol say "gonna make sure the stream is alright."?
i marked the important parts in the quotes. maybe you can find the answer to your question yourself now

We're complaining because nobody likes to be misled. One of the greatest aspects of Esports is that it's a live event, where everybody... the players, casters, and viewers, share in one experience. You don't hype an event for weeks and then mislead people. There wouldn't be half as much complaining if they had simply said, "for technical reasons, we will be broadcasting a pre-recorded VOD." Easy.

Lol, I feel so bad for you guys getting soooo much negativity from people that don't realize that everything has to begin somewhere.

What's the current score? Just got home.

Its more because of the fact that in korea it is 8am atm. This way the players can play at an optimal time zone and both europeans and americans can see it.

asuming the it is not live also exlpains why the cast seems to get out of sync: the video of the game itself is lagging (you can see this clearly when on unit-movement). the cast-video down right is playing just fine. so after a few minutes it gets out of sync because the ingame-video only played like 4min and the cast-video 4min ans a few secounds.
really annoying, was hopeing for some really greate casts and games :-(

I am loving this game. People are just spoiled. How can you not love this?
Incontrol and Gretorp are doing a good job. Jinro is being a baller. Idra is having a hard time .

Because the HDH was just a fraps'd video of what HD was controlling. This showmatch is a caster and two commentators all controlling separate computers and cameras.

I'm liking the quick medivacs instead of rushing for tanks. It gives you some map control and ability to harass before the zerg gets his muta number up. I'm so gonna steal it!

I dont like replay casts. It just feels a little less "exciting". Also often times the casters are not synched up with each other perfectly and it screws up the quality a little. Also Justin.tv keeps dieing on me... Guess I'm gonna go to bed then >_>

Sync is much better now, and casters seem peppier. I'm still not sure that this is live though, looking like Shakuras is the first macro blow for blow match I wanted from the beginning.
Just as I say that Jinro is expanding aggressively into Idra.

The only benefit to a live broadcast is the impossibility of the result being spoiled. As there are no live spectators for this event, that possibility is removed, so what's the problem? It's not like you've seen these games before.
Funny i don't think people would say the same thing about a pre-recorded World Cup final which was passed off as being screened live to the world 
I think the pre-recorded casts has thrown up a bunch of issues.
Casting from replays is fine, but pre-recorded casts definately feels awkward to me and detracts from the immersion.
I am enjoying the games though so its not all bad!
