Yea, thats the case specially in last day, there is only one stream and not that many games to be played. Specially with some of the zvz's lasting 5 minutes. | ||

Ironically, there are way more people playing (=customers) in the lower leagues than in the higher leagues. Making sure that those people have a pleasant experience is rather important. | ||

As i see it, the fanbase is a pyramid. Many bad players that like the game and a few pro's. If u would imbalance the game to much for brons-plat so that progaming is 100% balanced, that big base could get alot smaller very fast. And as a result, progaming would as well.

Maybe europeans are working hard and their hard work is paying off? It baffles me to think that just because someone is a certain nationality they should never lose. This isn't brood war Even with Broodwar, top Koreans like Silent_Control among others still lost to foreigners at times. Seriously man. | ||

They constantly talk over each other, speak as if they were talking to the players or casters and not the viewers (oh no <instert name here>, dont do that) and are generally not accustomed to co casting. What? These aren't professional casters, these are the players attending mostly that are casting, they are doing a really good job as well. | ||

I thought this question had been settled 10000 threads ago. Balance doesn't even matter for popularity. Do you think League of Legends and Dota 2 are balanced? Those games have balance patches every week almost. It's all about how fun the game to watch/play is. ZvT for example was so much more fun to watch when Zerg played Muta/bling and terrans went marine/tank. Was that perfectly balanced? Most people agreed it was Terran favored but it was a million times more fun to watch. | ||

This isn't brood war I watch every GSL gama and was at IPL5, its not just about results. If you watch Symbol's play he is so inconsistent that he cannot be considered a top player. MKP is the same, constantly in ro16 but considered a joke in korea because he does stupid shit like roll over and die randomly. He was like that in 2011 as well, randomly dying to a lowered supply depot/forgetting to wall-off etc. Flashes of brilliance + streaks of horrible play doesn't make you a top player. When symbol loses in GSL he loses hard | ||
