So for us who haven't been following the tournament, what has exactly been so bad about IPL 4? I mean so it's been perfectly fine!

Some of the casters have been really terrible.
There have been consistent stream issues (lag, black screen etc)
Sound has been terrible often (bad volume, mono-stereo not done properly, multiple stream's sounds coming through on one stream)
VERY important games haven't been streamed.

So apart from stream issues, video issues, sound issues and games being shown issues, it's been great!



I have had 0 stream issues, and there has been, more, equally as important games all of which were very high quality with 0 lag. Casting is a personal preference, and the obsing has been very very good. The games are the highest level, and just because stephano isnt shown doesnt mean important games arent being shown. From my point of view this tourney has been great.


Still drunk so i apologize beforehand about my spelling/missed words, but seriously, having stream issues is standard for any tournament, but calling this worse than NASL is a fucking huuuuuuuugely incorrect statement. I like IPL and the production has been good so far, sure it's no Dreamhack (i fucking love you dreamhack <3) but it aint no NASL either so all in all its fine!


GOGO IPL!

Games like this and players like this terran i dont even wanna mention.

Just dont come and wonder why atm lol has 120k viewers and sc2 has 32.

if proleague doesnt ban this type of cheese expect even less viewers, i know i closed the window and i wont be bothering anytime soon till cheese gets a fix


What a load of crap. LoL has more viewers because they probably have magnitudes more players.


Or its cuz they have the stream on the main page of the client?


It has a link to the twitch tv page as part of the news when players log in, not an embedded stream ready to click play on. It also does have far more players than SC2 by the way.

People really, really need to get off Riot's back and actually praise them for what they do. If Blizzard gave anywhere near as much of a shit about eSports as Riot do (and by that I mean doing more than wheeling Rob Simpson out) then maybe these stream numbers wouldn't be so poor.


wut? If you don't compare it to a game like LoL or WoW SC2's viewership is by no mean poor.


To quote from another TL post then during IPL3:

"David Ting stated that there were 100,000 concurrent stream viewers for IPL3."

There are currently 35,000 concurrents for IPL4 main SC2 stream at the moment.


Ting was talking about both Lol and SC2 when he dropped the 100k at IPL 3. IPL 4 is holding 150k concurrent viewers right now, and broke 200k already.


Fair play, it's just sad to know the majority of this increase is not down to SC2... I mean, I think IEM just about managed to pull 70k concurrent over all language streams for the SC2 finals at the World Championship?


While I would have liked to see SC2 viewership grow, I don't mind seeing LoL grow, because I'm sure LoL helps tournaments that also run SC2 like IPL and IEM be sustainable, and growing Esports is good stuff.


Exactly. Put our eggs in as many baskets as possible.

I wonder if they just won't stream any more games after this and go straight into the GSTL finals since those were supposed to start at 5pm.

Moral of the story MLG has set a very high bar with the number of simultaneous streams they are now running at their tournaments. IPL can't really compete with that, but overall there have been a lot of good games and nothing to be too upset with (although the IdrA Jakji audio issues were pretty embarrassing and will be burned into that recording forever).

IPL is free though, so unless you wanted to pay $15 this weekend for three more streams, I think we should all be pleased with the awesomeness of the tournament and stay happily optimistic about championship Sunday!

We just watched an MLG for free though too.

I think the funniest thing about MKP/Curious or Curious/Stephano not being shown if the last match on the main stage was White Ra vs. JYP.

Thats the biggest blunder since blizzcon, if not bigger.

That's why a fixed shedule for the casting is a terrible idea. People should be flexible enough to react to the happenings and interesting stories of a tournament (Scarlett, Stephano as last foreigner) and then to cast these matches accordingly.
Also: Fuck yeah, Stephano! Awesome performance so far! Haters gonna hate, though.

any idea how they are configuring championship bracket? like which groups face which?


Well, usually it is A1 vs. D2, B1 vs. C2 and so on, but they might just do a random drawing. If it's paired by groups, like a lot of tournaments, it would be:

Nestea vs. MKP/Jjakji
Polt vs. Stephano
Bomber vs. Alive
MarineKing vs. Squirtle

But it might just be random drawings.
