Idra is playing against himself. Idras worst enemy is Idra. Something you never see in great champions. | ||

18 bo3 wins between them, and the only loss on one of their records was the result of a teamkill...damn xD Definitely not a fan of the format having seen it in action, but ah well. | ||

All matches are available to watch within a few hours, how many mlg matches are available? how many have even been streamed live? i have bought gom season tickets and the service has been superb. to even try and justify MLG by using the odd disconnect is laughable. GSL is so far ahead of MLG in every single way it is not even funny. I dont care for your fancy setups and flashy adverts, I want quality sc2 that i can watch. MLG do not provide that. Oh and please, dont use the " more viewers on mlg" . A organisation will know with even a little market research how many potential viewers they will get in a best and worst case senario and how to provide for it. Sure, MLG has problems other than battlenet, but fact remains, they have been screwed by no lan several times now. Part of the problem would be solved if Blizzard weren't so scared of pirates. A lot of their issues fall on themselves, but a lot also falls on Blizzard. | ||

But Blizzard dropped the ball because they said they would give out special servers to major LANs to ensure they want off without a hitch (Valve does this for the record, because if you cant connect to steam your CSS tourney would suck :p). Unfortunately, they just never bothered it seems. Was just another promised feature, like chat, that wasn't there at release and has taken quite a while to come. | ||

No GGing and the endless BM in so much matches he loses. Whenever I see Idra play now I just hope he loses till he rages so hard and just quits playing  | ||

(which huk doesn't qualify for). otherwise, people are just being bitches and mad idra lost. Stupid rule or not it needs to be enforced or removed. Last year the restarted Tyler vs someone (Painuser?) 10 minuts in when Tyler was way ahead and almost won it, simply because it was the wrong map. People got mad, and rightly so, but MLG defended themselfs saying they need to go by the book (even when it's retarded) because that's the only thing to do as a big profesional company. Even if a the rules are retarded they can't just make calls on the spot that overrules them. Except for sometimes...>_< | ||

IEM, GSL, Blizzcon. non of these events have had anything like the problems here. in fact, unless people point out specific games, i dont even notice any disconnects in those tournaments as so few happen. I have yet to hear of players in GSL or IEM pause the game due to lag. its nothing to do with battle net, its to do with a lack of bandwidth at the site. I dont agree with an excuse being used that does not effect other events on such a ridiculous scale. In fact you say they have been "screwed several times". well apart from the fact that no other event has been screwed on such a large scale, why havnt they learnt? they surely must know by now what is required to run an sc2 tournement that lacks LAN support. they must have wondered how other events run with no lan support. its not as if GSL or IEM have a LAN version of sc2  | ||

Actually GSL's had several problems recently that were completely caused by no LAN, e.g. the MVP vs Dimaga drop from the Korea vs world teamleague. | ||

Isn't that the only one? at least the only one i seen in the last few weeks. (with tournaments pretty much every day) I just remember the last two MLG events, MLG finals beeing rediculus. What was it? like 2 hours waiting for the last 10 minute game? And now not only the games dieing but also the stream beeing unwatchable for quite some time. :/ not a very good thing. I have yet to see another tournament, even the small ones over the internet where everyone has a different internetline and might get screwed, to actually have to cancel matches or even halt the turnament. | ||
