Wow, how is it ever possible for Protoss to counter EMP's when Terran does something as simple as split up his ghosts? I don't understand, ... how does Protoss stop being EMP'ed when position renders it impossible?
You can move units out of a storm. You cant move units out of an EMP.

This thread, especially since I really want you to elaborate on that point given how imo this is the best production they have ever had at an arena O.o
The whole tournament looks like it is taking place in 2 rooms, with absolutely no live audience. The observing computer has a low framerate even when the graphics settings have been turned down in order to improve performance. Although I really like the analysis screen, MLG really needs to start rehearsing some of this stuff. The screen is too big so the casters have to stand partially in front of it, making it kind of awkward (most notably Axslav saying "look how fast the supply is dropping" when his head is in the way so you can't see it anyways). Also, why is everyone but Axslav wearing a suit? It's not necessarily his fault either, MLG has done enough events that they should have some extra clothing lying around. I don't think the casters should be entirely responsible for their appearance. A little makeup and hair styling could go a long way.
Perhaps "production" wasn't the right word, but I think this is a little less entertaining than the events with large audiences. This tournament has good games but absolutely no atmosphere. Even GOMTV's studio is more exciting than this.
It's basically just an extra event, MLG can't afford to have like 6 live championships, so they have arenas instead. This isn't an event for crowds to shout at every worker killed, it's just for the games, sort of like an online tourney. Your 'issues' with the event are just nit picking at its best, I mean Axslav doesn't need to wear a suit, he is a player, and will therefore represent his team. It's ridiculous to criticise someone's clothing, especially when they are wearing a team jersey. You can't really rehearse analysing a live game, and the player's won't be trained in speaking, hence some awkwardness, but training really isn't needed for just a weekend of analysis.
Lower your standards, because you are expecting perfection.
He makes a valid point about the pc's though. Its not so hard to get a machine that can run SC2 at high smoothly, this is not battlefield 3.
