I know I wouldn't want to see something like the World Cup semi-finals if Messi was there and playing his first game ever in Korea. I'd rather watch Swansea City take on Wolverhampton. Always good to give the little guys a chance to shine. end sarcasm... Vods and replays exist so we can see these lower bracket games at a later time. The winner's bracket is the winner's bracket. Those should get priority. | ||

I'm glad most of that is gone from TL with all the 12-14 year olds that went to bed. Why can't people just appreciate the play they get to see in front of them rather then cry about not seeing two other players play, which they will indubitably see soon enough. | ||

There where what 3 games casted since this crap began? all zvz's...... They showed a PvT(Nani v Major) and a TvZ(Select vs Dimaga I think). I guess they had already decided which matches to show and we got the bad luck of having 10 Zergs in the tourney lol. | ||

The only way a 2 base muta rush works is 1. when your opponent is playing defensively 2. you know the game is going to be dragged out 3. you're using the muta's map control as a stepping stone to something else Not really the case, ling bling destroys hydras really fast and attacking cross-map into spine crawlers is difficult for zerg. It is a flimsy style, but ive seen it work with suprising frequency | ||

Blizzard isn't an event-holding organization. If their event kind of sucks, it doesn't matter, they don't need you to tune in again. By next blizzcon everyone will have forgotten, for the most part, how bad it was due to a couple good games by MVP/Nestea, and the GSL Finals right after it. | ||

It's disappointing, I can agree with that but everyone is acting like they deserve to see it, even when half their post contains "I'm so glad I didn't pay $40 for this shit." I'm glad most of that is gone from TL with all the 12-14 year olds that went to bed. Why can't people just appreciate the play they get to see in front of them rather then cry about not seeing two other players play, which they will indubitably see soon enough. because there was so much down time and like 3 games which were all ZvZ's? And once they just left no games on even though Nestea v Naniwa didn't start yet... | ||
