They would have to invit 10 or 15 people per teams, and it's way too expensive.

Also spectating it would be very difficult lol
How do you keep track of what 10-15 people are doing - on one team?!

Logistically I don't think it would ever really work :<


Actually, following rated BG should be easier, since you would watch capture points maps, or bring the flag back, and it's easier to understand.

arena is so much better than BG , blizzard tried to make BGs competitive and it failed so

I played WoW for 2 years and finished top in season 1 arena and I can barely understand shit of what's going on because of camera viewing limitations haha. It's sooo bad. I think Joe is lying!

So SC2 which Blizz promotes globally as a/THE competitive esport has to suffer through general internet and B.NET lag and connection issues, but the MMO cash-cow gets dedicated servers for something that objectively is a worse spectator experience.

GJ Blizz... glad you're enjoying your Bizarroworld logic.

Nah, It's tournament servers separated from the regular live ones, but they're still online

You said it dude, makes me cringe, the commentator dude or whoever the guy is on stage with longer hair doesn't help making things more comfortable. Although to be fair even most of the SC2 questionnaire sessions so far have been really bad too lol.

Tbh I think competitive raiding would become a better e-sport than Arena.

Well, BGs are more strategic based, arenas is a lot dependant in teams setup and rng factor. :/
And i think BGs would be easier to understand from people who never play the game.

Tbh I don't think it would be that hard, heck even AV with 40 people, it would be possible, ignoring just the straight up killing and following the meaningful fights(fighting for towers, graveyards and such).

But yer realistically, you have WSG, and in WSG there's really just 1-2 real battles going on, the other ones are just getting your opponent out of position, like you could see via drops in SC2.

But yer, getting 10-15 people together in each team :/ Would still be epic, even if it was online with stream delay.

That's an interesting idea. I certainly think there's room for such a scene. I'd check it out.

So she shouldn't be well liked because she's not a model? What the fuck?
