I won't call "worst tournament ever" because it's clearly not. However, when EVERYONE is aware that this is going to be the event compared to TI2/S2WC (DotA2/LoL) it's a shame to see Blizzard make this many mistakes with it. | ||

I always at least got to see the winner interviews that would be translated by someone either in the channel's chat or in the LR thread, and I would be amused by the commercials that were either zany or had to do with gaming of some sort. It wasn't really that bad. The video quality itself is much better during the BWC, but there is no life to it. It's, "Okay, Creator wins against Nerchio! Was that the winners' match?" Cut to cut scenes for 20 minutes. Back to a new game. Repeat. There is no ongoing narrative or a panel of people to hype the upcoming matches, keep a story going, etc. I'm sure it'll be better on Day 2 with less streams and a more condense story with only sixteen players left, but may be a little too late. I also can't wait for when the semifinals happen at the same time. Heh, maybe it's just me then. I never watched any of those, much like here, there was always a serieson OGN's stream and a series on MBC's stream and would always just switch from game to game. Also, I mostly remember muting the stream between games because of K-pop  . | ||

Don't read too much into it =P Well it's not the worst tournament ever, but it looks pretty amateurish compared to the LoL and Dota finals. This is blizzard's flagship tournament and it looks the same or even worse as any other ran tournament. Blizzard could throw all the money they want at this tournament, but money does nothing if the people hired can't do the job properly. I think it was a mistake for blizzard to host this in china. Should have hosted this in the states or....canada! | ||
