To all the people complaining about long setup and start times:
This is what happens when Starcraft is on a live, popular television channel. They have to adhere to fixed schedules, lots of commercials, and potentially lots of filler time because they have a set time block. If you want esports and SC2 to succeed, you'd better get used to it, because this is what is going to happen when it becomes super popular and is aired on television and everything.

i disagree, pvp is the worst mu in bw. thats right i prefer zvz...
Well, even if it's the worst matchup, it can't be worse than SC2 PvP...
I do not know why people dislike PvP that much in SC2, yes it is a rather low eco match, but the mathup is much more diverse than it has been. Blink Stalker, Zealot Archon, Phoenix openings and Robo play all possible. It also let's pros really show of their micro.

doesnt need to get aired on TV and that wouldnt really be much better than streaming when it comes to the future of entertainment in general. I'd rather kill esports if we have to deal with this much downtime.

Holdover from when PvP was all 4gate v 4gate or defensive 3gate I think.

It's a shame for you that OGN, the company that's running this broadcast, is a television network, then.

Um. OGN has been airing Starcraft games on TV for over a decade. This is how the system works. This is why Starcraft has had such a legacy in Korea.
