Same time he could have killed all the drones from stephanos 3rd with those hellions but got scared of a couple of roaches and didnt do anything. Bad play. It was awesome if you consider his skill ![]() | ||

Haypro vs 'Firefly' was broadcast, but Haypro vs Daisy (you know, ex-Prime player who qualified for TSL4 and moved out of Korea a few months ago?) wasn't. What does that tell you? If there actually were no good games to show I would just tune in later, but I'm staying because there are some games I actually want to see, and I may or may not see them... Well ok, first are you sure it wasn't broadcasted on one of the 7 streams? Second, like i said it's not easy to pick out the good games without a lot of downtime on the official streams. | ||

It's like going to McDonalds expecting good food while you know it sucks. Irony is I'm eating a McDonalds as I type >_> It's pretty good ^_^ But really I tune in cos I like to see the big upsets or give them a run for their money.. The Morrow game earlier and Mana game being played atm good examples | ||

I don't see MC beating all day 1 to the point where the finals have to be on a monday so most people can't watch because they wasted an entire day of games letting random low leaguers waste hours of stream time with their once in a lifetime moment of letting Stephano win a 14 minute best of three against them. Sweden is one of the leading e-sport nations for a reason, and dreamhack and it's tournament system has a part in that. DH has been around for over 15 years and wont (I hope) change becuse they decide to stream it now. It's not an ordinary tournament like mlg, it's the worlds largest lan party with everything that comes with it. That match with Stephano might be the thing that tip the guy over the edge and he decides that he want to become a pro gamer as well, 2 years later he wins code S. It's a exaggeration for sure but it's one of the ways we "breed" esport players here. They only thing I have against it now is they they should be able to schedule so it's always a decent match on the streams and let the randoms play the pros off-stream. | ||

edit: to be constructive and less snarky, I believe it's dependant on the X co-ordinate of the player's spawn position. That is, the player whose spawn point is furthest to the west appears on the left. | ||

STOP. WHINING. (someone warn the guy) This format while not so interesint, gives motive to random diamond/master scrubs to play more. If you know you might twice a year face QXC, Stephano, Mana, on a tournament (and have your 5 minutes of fame) this gives you a reason to practice for. In that way the talented players may work hard enough to be spotted and taken into a team, where they might be full time gamers. This format does what's best to bridge the gap between the semi-hardcore ladderer and the hardcore ladderer/semi-pro, good enough to be taken into a team. That's where I think the european scene gets it's steam, that narrower gap. So, in a sense, what you're saying is "hurting esports TM". Close the streams and watch from tomorrow on. Edit: At the moment Tails puts up a "decent fight" vs Stephano in the "totally imbalanced" TvZ match-up. This may give that kid motive to train hard and become someone in the SCII world | ||
