It's really sad that Nordic finals were 10 times better than the Global finals.

I don't even care about the cutscenes during down time because I just start looking for a different stream that has a series playing

people aren't watching correctly if they are watching cut scenes


So what series should I watch now? Every stream is having cutscenes or a spinning logo...

Because it's easier to just throw in WoL cutscenes than Blizzard to actually make filler content like interviews, segments, etc.

It makes the tournament feel so empty. During the International, you would have a panel talking about the game. LoL WC you had at least the casters talking about the previous series. This tournament is simply:

- Series
- Cut scenes
- Series
- Cut scenes
- Series
- Cut scenes

It's just lifeless.

Agreed, some kind of interview or analysis or whatever would make this event alot better

(Plus, TI had Bruno and his awesome stats)


Yeah most of the casters should easily talk in breaks, Bitterdam do it all the time in NASL with their stories, Apollo also knows how to fill up time. These movies are just so boring.

Looking at the bracket, Suppy has a dream run at making top 8.

LoL WC had interviews and team intro videos and everything too.

Hell, the Grand Finals had an orchestra open the ceremonies XD


WCS Euro remains the pinacle for all other SC2 events to aspire to it seems.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Given the average quality of a Blizzard cutscene, it is worse than lifeless. It is poisoning.


I agree that it's bad to just put in cutscenes during downtime but average quality of Blizzard's cutscenes are really good if you ask me.

I suppose they can be good if you can pretend not to have ever read anything, watched anything, or played anything that is not related to Blizzard stuff. I am not a snob, but this kind of stuff is just cringe-worthy.


Could you introduce me some good cutscene/cinematic from video game that you think it's good?

Cutscene, logo, logo, cutscene. 4 streams, Blizzard, and this is the best you can come up with. Sound problems, some lag, that's unavoidable sometimes. But this isn't. I have some downloads to catch up on, and my connection can't handle both... oh well, guess I can watch the VODs.

There's actually a lot of stuff going on at the venue, they're just not showing it. The hosts are doing various interviews and audience interactions, they're showing it on the Korean stream in between games.


What is the Korean Stream?

Because they weren't moving out.

Ahahaha, audience knowledge through the roof.

They're quizzing the audience. They asked a guy who made star craft. He said brood war.

You might as well just put a strikethrough line on this timeslot for Stream 3 because we're 1 minute from the next timeslot and nothing was played.
