If you look at some of the other popular tournaments it really is kept simple. At MLG you have games, followed by a short post-game analysis, sponsor ads, followed by more games. And Homestory Cup (which I know is a completely different animal) is just a bunch of dudes sitting on a couch ffs, and I really feel like those tourneys benefit strongly from the lack of bullshit in between. Does anyone else feel the same way? | ||

There have been so many awesome moments watching lots of great events for me. Take your crappy attitude and go watch Evo. This crowd is far louder than it appears and nothing is happening.. they just did the Day9 dance between games... BAD SC2! | ||

This guy isnt hyping ret, he is trying to discredit his achievements. did you watch the TL documentary? | ||

The player entrances, the prematch show with the over-acting dude commentating on how the players got there, the chicks in skimpy clothes wandering around all over the main stage. It all just seems way overdone and over the top, as if they're trying to gain popularity with over-production and scantily-clad women. If you look at some of the other popular tournaments it really is kept simple. At MLG you have games, followed by a short post-game analysis, sponsor ads, followed by more games. And Homestory Cup (which I know is a completely different animal) is just a bunch of dudes sitting on a couch ffs, and I really feel like those tourneys benefit strongly from the lack of bullshit in between. Does anyone else feel the same way? Agreed, well if they want to have this kind of production they need to invest more in basically every area for it not to look silly and too bombastic... But I'm here for the games so I don't really care what's in between but I agree this is not the best. | ||
