Here we go again. This weekend is about good games and good fun. Don't rain on that parade. Play nice guys. Here's the very standard and friendly: - NO Balance Whine. - NO Player Bashing. - NO Caster Bashing. - NO BM whatsoever. Breaking these rules (from pg 166 forward) will be met with severe punishment. | ||

We don't see enough of it here, but having a complete infrastructure around it instantly makes it larger than the disorganized foreigner scene. The fact that foreigners need to go to korea to become truly competitive just comes to show that the scene is better, and bigger. | ||

In my opinion it wasn't like this at the beginning, but that's just my thoughts. I agree. It's inevitable and a sign that esports is rapidly growing. It's just so goddamn annoying sometimes.  | ||

You could make the argument that any discussion is futile, you could make the argument that anything we ever do on this planet is futile, at least from a philosophical perspective. Some people just think it's fun to talk about it though, even if there's no real point of it. | ||

Its the standard format for double elimination tournaments. So the finals really are still gonna be Bo3? Ouch. That is a hype-crusher. | ||

How good a match is depends on a lot of things, not just format. Normal double elim finals have the person from the LB needing to win 2 Bo3's while the person from the WB only needs to win one | ||

For some reason, a lot of Toss' are trying to get cute against zerg with early stargate openings, but Naniwa is keeping it real with a sturdy and well-controlled deathball. I'm really not sure why Toss moved away from the two-three base deathball anyway. | ||

Because GSL finals have all been great and MLG finals have all been bad. Are you freaking serious? I mean I get your point about extended series, but the GSL has had its fair amount of bad finals as well. | ||
