Poor WoW people

Know someone who was really excited for WoW, and then really disappointed. At least we had fun making fun of the commentators.

Didnt watch the livestream earlier today, i just watched some vods - and i really recommend watching Ret vs Tarson game 2.
Back and forth action, Ret best at macro, and Tarson got the superior micro.

for anyone interested into a deeper look into what real arena is, commentated by the best priest in the world, wow is kinda of a deep game, just blizzard didnt refine it enough


Hydra is originally a EU female dwarf priest right (ingame char that is)?

If it is, I raided (pve) with him and athene back in the black temple days. If I remember correctly, we booted hydra and declined athene after a trial for not raiding (and hanging out in BG's during raids), demand to be able to lootwhore because of his 'pvp skillz' and not giving a shit in general.

Guess he got quite far after that.

Are u talking about Nagas (guild)? Haha, I remember being in that guild aswell raiding BT.

To be honest what occured was incredibly unfair for the WoW community. They have 1 tournament and blizzard screwed them pretty hard. There is higher quality SC2 then what was shown available basically 7 days a week. WoW has 1 tournament a year.

I'm a wow geek, but there is a good reason why there is only 1 tournament a year. It's unwatchable. Even now I wish they hadn't done arena at this event, so my last memory of watching arena would ne mlg which was at least entertaining.

Yeah as much as I don't give a damn about WoW arena that was pretty bad lol.

The fact is those games were good but nothing stellar, GSL is almost every day with MLGs several times a year and the like.

WoW gets just a few tournaments a year (unlike our continuous GSL seasons) and they didn't even get an official twitter report of it.

Then again, they play WoW, so I guess we could just make fun of them :p.

Lol, it's actually the only one :p.

I thought they were exaggerating ... That settles the "is WoW an e-sport debate" if it only gets viewers once a year (and not even that actually, they watched SC2 :p) it definitely didn't qualify.

Then again it is less watchable than Halo or Call of Grenades-over-buildings-at-spawn.

Just checked the results and if I am reading this right, I'm seeing a possible Naniwa Thorzain rematch?

Yeah, the quality of the game is directly related to the quality of the community.

it's just normal that they didn't show WoW, nobody at the venue came to see WoW, why would they want to bore these people to death with a game that may be considered esports (i have no idea) in it's dexterity to play well, but is nowhere being esports from a spectator point of view?
sc2 is more entertaining for a crowd to watch, and the wow scene pretty much disappeared anyway.
personally, i only play RTS competitively, but i can watch cs and quake pro games because it IS esports, just like watching the NBA even though i don't play basketball and don't care about it much (i am european), watching wow pretty much feels like watching curling : "these guys really think what they do is skilled lol?" is what comes to your mind.
