Being able to laugh at terrible posts? Not sure. Usually I just sort of shake my head sadly

Wow, what's going on? This thread hasn't been moving all that quickly.

Crude jokes during a sponsored StarCraft event... it makes it seem like such a game for children. I couldn't imagine a chess event turning into a beavis and but head spectacle. Everything is best in moderation and immaturity is prob something that def qualifies as being best in small doses. There's a time and place for everything. It just feels out of place, weird and awkward to me. I have nothing against the casters. I just think it's weird to have high level players, yet for the casters to have to put on such a "show."


Lol. Then go and watch chess tournaments, the pinnacle of adrenaline and excitement!

Different games, different tempos, different demographics. Why compare the two at all???

Wow, another LR thread derailed over your mom jokes, professionalism, and SC2 vs BW.

This is why we can't have nice things

its not even that. Like, how would you feel if you were Soe watching this. Or better yet, how would you feel if sponsors was watching this? Theres alot of issues going on here. They would be insta-fired if they worked in any real job


This IS a real job. They are catering for an audience of mostly 15-25 year olds... and they do it well (note, I am not a 15-25 yo). Do I think the jokes are rather banal? Sure, but it's at about the right level for adolescents, so I don't mind it.



This is what stops sc2 from becoming the next bw. I understand your reasons. But if the only reason to not be professional is because the demographic is young and this is not mainstream, well, then we'll never have mainstream.

I understand sc2 has alot of young viewers. But i can guarantee out of all esports fans, the majority are 22-30, and most of us are over mom jokes


edit: his mom jokes didn't get the likes...he asked the community, and they did it because they love the esport. If 2gd only said 'lets go all tweet/upvote/like'..He would have gotten the same thing.

What stops Sc2 from becoming another BW is that is a worse spectator game by miles. The people who whatch sc2 are the people who play sc2 and different kind of casting won't change that. It's just not interesing to watch for the outsider.

I haven't played SC2 for a year and dont plan to do it in the future

depends on what kind of terrible, ZeroSC2 bad or Starception bad are laughable, IMNightmare bad makes me want to report every word he says

Most people are probably saying their goodbyes to BW, I'm trying to remember how it was rather than that it's gone though, so I'm still here :s

if sc2 has to change in order to become more "mainstream", what's the point ? I think i'm not the only one to like the fact that commentators/players are not like those predictable lemmings trying to act professional on TV. At least it feels natural.

Ok, that was pretty impressive, drawing the lings to the side, killing the overlord with the floating rax. Can you tell this guys played BW?

WTF are you talking about? SCII is not that different for viewers. Apart from variations in the later game its BW in 3D. BW is way more figured out but the same thing will eventually happen with SCII.

Yeah true, I'm just surprised there aren't more SC2 fans here though :o

Man watching OSL PvT juxtaposed with this SC2 PvT will be an interesting experience. Man. After OSL I went on TS and was going to play some games with the others but it turns out that the computer I'm borrowing in China is too bad, so I will have to wait until I get home lol.
