Sigh I can assure you guys that SC2 has it's fair share of lunatics.

Let's not hate on WoW fans, it's not like all of them are like that.

If you think it's too hard there are solutions other than asking for a nerf, getting better is the first that comes to mind.

Well Blizzard tried to hype WoW Arena as an Esport a couple of years ago and it already failed , so the WoW people shouldn't be suprised if Blizzard/ESL has to a decision what to show of course they'll show the more popular Game. Yes it's unfair for WoW guys but its pretty similar in r Sports , Olympics for example. Smaller stuff will not get show very much it's that simple.

I feel rather bad for the WoW fans, but then I read their forums.

Its good for the game to have PvP, and for people to take it seriously, but they are extremely deluded if they think Blizzard will ever throw them a moment of the spotlight when they are currently holding 60-70k viewers for their flagship esports game.

I think the chick casting it should be given an own3d.tv login and told to get on with it for her 5k viewers. Seems rather unfair to give them NOTHING.

Exactly, WoW Arena is "dead" as an E-sport because blizzard favours PVE balance over PVP due to the larger PVE community. SC2 on the other hand is thriving and growing, I don't see why these AJ kids are surprised.

TBH even most of the AJ people agree with this to some extent.

Those SC2 and WoW communities discovering each other, criticizing their differences, making fun of each other and finally understanding they are not that different looks a lot like foreplay to me.

We'll be having sex pretty soon imo

You can't blame WoW fans for being annoyed; they released a schedule, and never showed anything. This is also it's only tournament because they have yet to release an updated tournament spectator client to use.



I understand that they are mad, but threatening to kill the staff is a bit out of line.


This is standard behavior for wow players, PvPers especially. I've seen people threaten blizzard community managers with physical violence, on the official wow forums.

The average wow player has an IQ somewhere around normal room temperature, just ignore them.

Why are they blaming it on Blizzard? They don't run the tournament right?

this is the blizzard invitational. but to answer your question, yea it's not run by blizzard. it's some other company, i think microsoft.


It's the Blizzard Inv. I think Blizz. probably have something to say about how things are organized.

Well I feel sorry for Naniwa he gonna meet Nerchio now and I feel Nerchio is a much better zerg then Ret so I think Naniwa gonna lose to nerchio also


no.

Yeah just no.

Nerchio is good but hes still young. For now ret is the best EU zerg.


Ret is prolly top 5 zerg in the world in this form, behind NesTea/Losira/DRG and I personally think he's better than idra, coca is pretty good also.


Dimaga just won Assembly so right now he's maybe slightly ahead of Ret in my book. And I'm sure there are quite a few korean zergs that are better.


I named all the top korean zergs. That's true Dimaga is up there also, so it's like NesTea/Losira/DRG/Dimaga/Ret/idra/coca(?) can't think of any other zergs from gsl that have shown more skill than Ret or Dimaga


Zenio, Leenock, July, Sen,Line etc?


Line was a one hit wonder, Leenock is not consistent enough, July is also very inconsistent and his style has been figured out, zenio is good but I'd bet on Ret or Dimaga over him and I forgot Sen :O Sen's a monster also lol


July's style hasn't been figured out. That's the beautiful thing about it, July can take you into a macro game or Baneling bust at any time of his choosing. He tries to dictate the flow of the game with threats.


He's in a major slump then after peaking to get to the GSL finals, but what you said is true

Some people did believe in arenas becoming some kind of e-sport back in Wrath of the Lich King, but Blizzard quickly stop supporting that, make starcraft their true e-sport game to promote, and juste leave wow into " we don't care about PvP anymore, deal with it "

That did leave some very very very angry people.

I believe the issue is that the schedule showed WoW would be streamed? Maybe they got blown away by the 75k viewers and didn't want to lose any.
