Just because you have no understanding of how to create drama and excitement (uncertainty), does not mean you are right.
BW is more exciting in part because the observer does not show everything until the moment is right, and because we don't know when upgrades finish or units are flanking.
You cannot deny this. It is a fact.
The first day GOM broadcasted WCG SC2 in Korea, the BW observer didn't know about the progress bars yet. IT INSTANTLY MADE THE GAMES 200% MORE EXCITING. PERIOD. Go watch Hero vs MKP sans progress bars. To experience it is to understand why I am right.

Someone please LR Select vs Thorzain g2, my internet's dying down.

You do know that 6000$ prizes are for these groups? So it's not like they play for fun.

Would you rather be more likely to play PuMa, or play Incontrol? If you get top seed you'll likely get a much weaker player, and vice verse.

Too bad I guess. Damage control. Probably the only way to not have things run absurdly late, they're scheduled till like 10pm local time normally right? oh man, Thorzain keeps getting medivac drops sniped. Ha, should stream Hero vs Sleep, it is the highlight match of the group imo TT.
Why the fuck would they skip Hero v Sleep X_X

WE ARE NOT TRAINING, WE ARE FANS!!!!!!!! idk i prefer them because insted of stuff like IS CONSUME FINISHED IS IT FINISHED IDK IDK IDK..i get OK CONSUME IS FINISHED HE CAN FINALLY PUSH THIS BACK HIZA OR SOMETHING. But listen to that...which one is more exciting: "Oh my god is consume going to finish in time?!?! If it doesn't finish really soon the game is over!!!!" vs "Consume will definitely be done in time so he can hold just fine" I dunno, for me the answer is obvious.... But this is off-topic 
yea i see your point, but that is why i like watching both. I wish I knew korean so i could understand what the observers are saying, but people translate do it fine.

BW is a more developed game. I was sorta disappointed when sc2 came out cuz I wanted it to be better than BW. It's not yet, but I think in time it can be. And I hope it does.

lol why would idra have a lock of slashers hair

Damn I feel like a recovering heroin addict that just got a hit of BW after being sober for a year.

IPL handling problems and downtime much better then NASL, big props to them.
They also have the benefit of seeing what happened with the NASL and have preparations for a situation like that. Seems like IGN covered all possible holes, wish I could be there in person to support.

In Marine/Tank TvT its really worth to add a 3rd ebay in midgame just to get the +2 armor for buildings... it helps so much vs marine DPS

Right now, Thorzain and Select both have 3 bases and 200 pop of Tanks/marines/medivacs. Thorzain has the position on the map, and tries to take a fourth and a fifth base while Select tries to drop him.

man i wish internet goes down and we get Boxer vs Idra.

Yup, you're right. Everything you believe in is a fact and every opposing opinion is wrong -_-
