I find this edition of IEM pretty boring. It kinda lacked a good Zerg. Socke and even Mana (a lot of people, including myself, consider him in very good shape, got 3-0`ed). Most of the people want to watch the best players and don't care if that are koreans. But I myself, lose interest pretty fast when the foreigners get dominated that hard. I don't even mind missing the finals.The double elimination system i find is also a lot more appealing.


BTW this is the 3rd and final match of LoL.
I actually like SC2 IEM format because its online qualifiers instead of INVITE ONLY. Also, I love the expedited tournament format. Four groups of four people each, and then single elimination qf, sf, 3rd place, grand final spread out over five days. Spreading it out over five days doesn't tire the players terribly. Yes, the actual matches do take forever due to sponsors, multi language streams/observers, and hype. The only improvement I would make would be for the format to be Bo7 Grand Finals and ability to mute ads.

one question from a total DotA noob: google says dota2 will be release in 2012. how can there be a tournament with such a huge price pool if the game isnt even released yet? is there a beta running or how are those teams able to train and play the game already?
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.

I don't mind LoL, i can watch it for some time.
But the d/c problems and lenghts of the game ruin the schedule and that just frustrates people that wake up or make time to watch there favorite game.
Little delay aint bad, but if it becomes close to an hr it is just toomuch imo.
Hope they find something for this in future events.

Gotta say that DotA2 really looks amazing, hope Valve doesn't screw it up.
It appears I have been chosen.
