Maybe people just don't like IEM? I guess it's also a really bad time for people on the west coast right now but eh.


NA tournies seem to always do wayyyyy better, MLG winter was a huge success


I don't think It's that, homestory cup is an eu tournament and it got a LOT of viewers, dreamhack gets a lot, assembly gets a lot.

It's likely a mix of what other people were saying. Weekday, bad time for NA. IEM is not the best sc2 tournament out there by any means. There's so many sc2 tournaments these days that missing one is not a big deal, just tune into the one on the next weekend. I think it really splits up our viewership numbers.

SC2 got so many tournaments that people's expectation is ridiculuosly high so IEM is just an ok tournaments.


i think that's a good point. every 2-3 weeks is a major tournament in sc2. how often are big tournaments in LoL? I don't follow the scene so i don't know but judging on how often i see a stream listed on tl there are probably much less.

I do play zerg.

And now I know you never watch Stephano's stream.

(yeah, i can do taht kind of statement too !)

lol.

Why do all french people put a space before the exclamation point?


But more importantly, spreading BL's does nothing, they reclump the second you start attacking. Stephano beats late game toss by having an advantage the whole game.

Well, if you A Move your 15 BL in the same direction, they're gonna clump up again. But if you micro them a little bit, it will not be the case. And BL are pretty slow, they will not clump up that fast.

About Stephano, he just adapted to the situation. He used to clump up his broodlords and he lost them times and times again against archon toilet. And now he has adapted, he plays with little groups of 4 broodlords spread out. One vortex takes out 4/5 BL max, while the other one are shooting.

I cant understand how you guys can make fun of idras fiasco. Sc2 is gonna die. LoL popularity goes through the roof. No one cares about korean players. None but you.
Its a bad day every time a foreign top player loose. If u cant understand that then have fun in your future wc3-community.

If our fate depends on IdrA winning then we are all doomed.

yea good point IEM is probably the least popular and has some bad publicity around it with prize money and such

What's up with splitting Bitterdam up? They are my favourite casting couple.

SC2 is successful. Doesn't lol have higher viewer numbers because they have streams in the actual game? Blizzard pretty much don't give a crap about Battlenet 2. I never played on battlenet 1, but seems they really screwed it up this time. It's pretty bad.

Is Darkforce taking the piss now? Throwing away 6 mutas to kill a queen, throwing away dozens of lings fighting near the hatch on 30 hp instead of just killing it.

After watching a good portion of today's broadcast, one thing is certain. Needs more Koreans. Top foreigners, minus a select few, are quite sloppy compared to top Koreans.

Idra vs Darkforce makes Muta ling vs muta ling look fun

If you spread your BL that much, they just get sniped because you can't cover them all.
