Basically they had 1 match every hour and a half, and they were almost all players nobody cared about, while nestea and mvp played apparently awesome matches that didn't get put on the stream. The hour long downtimes that could have been filled with great matches is what has made everyone irate. Especially those who paid $40 for the hd stream. Those who paid $40 didn't just do it for the HD stream, I assure you. They did it for the hours of panel discussion with the added bonus of HD. Calling a mod a retard for doing his job is pretty silly too. Having the 2-3 pages of top voted things for people who felt the need to flood the board with the same message was pretty ridiculous. It made looking for news on HoTS/other sc related things extremely difficult and it was irritating seeing the same thing over, and over, and over. And the messages probably weren't even being looked at by anyone at Blizzard with some power. It's like crying on TeamLiquid about it, it just falls on deaf ears. Your best bet is to go the official forums and take your circle jerk there and cry on their forums about it. Is it really Blizzards fault for showing everyone each player before they were knocked out(hopefully)? I can only see Ming and Sen that were casted more then once. Everyone else that was casted was their first time being casted. I like Blizzard giving the lesser known players exposure. While I do agree that the down time between matches could of been fixed with showing matches in progress, but if the other players aren't in a sound proof booth, then doesn't that mean they can cheat? And asking players to move to a sound proof booth is pretty bad because that means you're interrupting their match, making them move from the position which they were comfortable with. I'm sad we didn't get to see MVP or NesTea play any games - But really.. Does Blizzard owe you them games? No. Should Blizzard stream them on the main stage? It's up to them. They're running by a schedule it seems, and they're doing a good job of it so far. People were crying because we didn't get to see Brat_OK vs NesTea, Sheth vs NesTea, Moonglade vs MVP, ToodMing vs MVP. I mean come on, do any of these players actually stand a chance against NesTea or MVP? Answer quite simply is no. Not streaming the NesTea vs NaNiwa or MVP vs SeleCT games was a little bit weird. But then again Blizzard owes us nothing. I am sure we will see NesTea and MVP play in tomorrows Blizzcon. So don't get your underpants all shitty just because you didn't get to see the Koreans own up 'white dudes.' | ||

Can someone explain to me why there's a reddit lynch mob crying about the tourney? People are calling it BliZvZcon? Is there a problem with ZvZ now? Do people really hate it that much? Or is this the usual reddit cesspool being addicted to complaining? I presume someone on Reddit came up with BliZvZcon and wanted to feel clever and spread the word, then other people wanted to feel clever and started using it as well. It's just one of those things like GomTvT. | ||

I was meaning more for the ones before. ToonMing took a game off of MVP with a bane bust(which seems to be MVP's way to lose against Z) so I don't count that. Brat_OK won a map, I don't know how, I expect something cheesy though. | ||

The hour long downtimes that could have been filled with great matches is what has made everyone irate. Especially those who paid $40 for the hd stream. The thing with ZvZ is that the games are usually short. So it gets particularly tragicomic when you have a 1.5h delay between games, then a Bo3 ZvZ that lasts 10 minutes, then another 1.5h pause. I fell asleep somewhere between match 3-4. Not sure if it got better after that, but it seems to me like Blizzard messed this one up. | ||

Nobody is interested in expectation, which could be right or way off. You can't really say "nobody want to watch the white guys getting owned" if the series ended 2:1 and you actually have no idea how the games went. | ||
