Ok open question:

When casters say "one of the best players in the world", do you view that as top10 or top 100? Because calling Socke top10 is just trying to restore some respect since he lost the last game. Casters throw that sentence out there all the time and im getting irritated by it

Socke seemed to expect 1-1-1 all in or banshees, he even cut loads of probes. Not so weird because a bunker above your ramp is quite often just one of those strategies.

Why is it ridiculous to do a German Interview with a German Player infront of a German Crowd in Germany? A English Interview would be rather strange imo


Because there is something called a 'stream' too? People are paying to watch a quality stream. It's an international tournament, e-sports is international. It's time for everyone to speak English in this kind of things.


Thank you. What I dont understand is that it is only German events that still does part of the event in a native language. Did you see any swedish interview with jinro/morrow/sjow infront of all the swedish nerds at dreamhack? No you didnt. E-sports is international, how will it grow even more if we dont use the most common language between nations?

It has become better though I have to say that. A couple of years ago you couldnt even find an english stream from ESL events.

Really? What about the 2011 European Battle.net Invitational?


Thats how its should be done here too. Especially for the paying customers.


(the 2011 European Battle.net Invitational had native commentary at the event and for stage presentations)


Yes, WITH translation. Unlike here.


Sometimes with translation, a lot of the time not. Nonetheless, different kind of event and crowd. Would be no different at a similar trade show style event in most bigger European countries. Smaller ones like Sweden, Denmark etc English is more of a second language.

Puma doing MVP 1/1/1 on 2 bases build :O


It's a very standard bio build (rax cc 2rax double gas), except he's gone for a faster factory (before his first add on)

MVP goes rax cc double gas fact starport and doesn't add on his final 2 rax till he's started his tank + banshee production.

Germany is very different to Sweden, Dreamhack is very different to gamescom

And please do not post misinformation, international ESL events have always had English commentary

Why are you quoting me? I wasn't the one claiming ESL events didn't have English commentary. Also as a matter of fact I wasn't giving any information at all (hence no misinformation), only asking about the Battle.net Invitational.


Sorry, I shouldnt have quoted you for that sentence Wish TL had a better reply systerm!
