2/3 are PoV channels I think and they are free, P1/P2 are not. | ||

edit: If you're not paying anything, everything under Red and Blue schedules are available to watch, though not in HD. If you're paying, you can see the two Premium schedules too. | ||

Basically if you dont have a pass, you can only see like 30% of the content they air from the Championship tournament, which is the only reason i would tune in. That's so not true. Maye 20% on premium stream | ||

They are champ rounds 1-4, and it seems round 3 and 4 will be running simulaneously with the kespa games so anyone who rather watch the old BW pros go at it instead of those champ rounds doesn't even need to consider buying unless it's for the HD. No, they are champ loser bracket 1-4, not upper bracket, and you miss some CLB 5-7. While they are nice to see, I'm sure everyone would be watching KeSPA players instead. Right now I can't see anything that's on premium stream you would want watch over main streams. I'm sure there will be some nice match up depending on how everything falls into place though. | ||

Red: the main stage stream will be streaming the MLG tournament all weekend, starting with pool play and then the championship bracket Blue]: the side stage will be streaming the WCS USA Finals Friday and Saturday morning after which it too will show MLG tournament competition both free streams will be airing KeSPA invite tournament content when that's going on there are also League of Legends and Fighting Game free streams Premium Streams: Red POV 1/2: these are the video pulled directly from the main stage players so you can see just how fast the best players in the world really are SC2 Premium 1: an additional stream showing MLG championship content, mostly pool play and championship bracket SC2 Premium 2: an additional stream showing MLG championship content, mostly open bracket play until championship bracket There are also League of Legends premium streams All free streams are available in "mid" quality, which is something like 480p (this is not even remotely close to being as bad as the GSL free stream whoever was saying that). Premium ticket holders get all streams in up to 1080p except Fighters which is only 720p. | ||

"Gold MLG League Members and Season Pass holders get Pro Circuit Championship Live Streams in High Quality and access to matches on demand during the events" So... Does I gets the premium channels? Or just the free channels in HD instead of mid/low? VODs of the premium channels? | ||

In the FAQ, the language for Gold members and Spring Premium pass holders are identical. So I imagine you should get every single stream with HD. | ||
