I don't understand the complaints about trying to make it a spectacle.
This is the NASL. The North American Star League.
When I tune in I want smoking hot blondes walking around in high heels, I want massive ostentatious hype and overstatement, and I want it all cast by someone who looks like a burger man. At the end I want the winner to ride off on a monster truck holding a massive cheque.
And yeah I like to see the different tournaments taking a different approach, makes it interesting.

Are you serious? Is this guy serious? You like the random ass yelling whenever someone starts a combo, drops a combo, dashes forward....wait, they start yelling FOR ANYTHING. Nothing important happens and they yell! Its the worst crowd ever.

wow... stop watching then. 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!
i guess i'm just not cut out to be a politically correct nerdy starcraft fan.. i've slowly started to realize that what this community thinks of as funny and exciting are way different than what i think, so yeah i guess i will have to stop watching. it's a shame cuz i really like sc2 but i just cant stand the current production standards/values
I find it funny that you call people nerdy like it is a bad thing. YOU ARE A NERD. You are posting on Sc2 forums. You aren't any different than the rest of the people here.
rofl I love people who do that. He says nerdy starcraft fan yet here he is posting on a forum WATCHING a sc2 tournament and acting like it's an insult jesus christ just leave then we don't need people like you thrawn.
Oh I just sit on SC2 forums saying I don't like watching SC2 and would prefer to watch other video games I'm the least nerdy person ever.
