I can hold off 200 roach at 12 min. But its only possible with force fields. But these drops make the hole defence 70% powerless. | ||

It was already mentioned in this thread: besides Nestea you have pretty much the best zergs of the world at this tournament, it is not that unusual that they are doing well | ||

Pirated copies of videogames are perfect replicas, there is no disadvantage to doing it, in fact more often than not pirates suffer less than legit customers due to DRM. Those watching restreams of MLG are getting an inferior experience, there is a disadvantage to pirating it. | ||

Take for example GSL, I never heard people complain that they want only vods or only hq stream and hence only pay the fraction of the price. 20$ is alot of money for a 3 day event and if a big chunk of the content provided you don't actually want it gets even worse. GSL is different you get so much more content for your money so if you don't need some of the stuff they provide its no biggie. | ||

If you have a PPV event of this high quality, then people (if they can't get restreams) will want to watch so bad that they'll just realize its worth it for 20 dollars. Saying "oh, but I just wouldn't have watched" is a horrible argument because in reality all you contribute is an increased societal faith in restreams, and the willingness to hurt esports just for your personal pleasure. quote TB : If you pirate the stream, you're not a customer anyway so you're not worth paying any attention to. The kind of people that watch restreams either can't afford it in the first place so there's no lost sale there or won't pay for it in which case they were never part of your potential market anyway. | ||
