People like you are killing tournaments


ROFL MY FUCKING ASS OFF.

People who state the obvious truth from a neutral and objective perspective are the ones who are killing tournaments? Great logic... -_-


Not sure if serious



You are delusional if you think what BretZ said is any different from the truth. It's a sad state of affairs but it is the one we're currently in and the one we've been in for a while, and all he was doing was pointing it out.

No, people that don't enjoy watching Starcraft and are only here to see them white dudes winning are killing tournaments and Starcraft. If you are unable to enjoy great games, just because there are only Koreans involved...well, you really should search for a different hobby.


Dude there is no need to speak as though I or BretZ are anything like that. But the majority of the people who watch SC2 (newsflash, a lot of them don't even know about TL.net or post here) are actually a lot like that, whether they admit it or not.

So the majority of people watching tournaments are retards. Great. I'm so glad we have talked about this for the thousandth time.

Just stating what a common opinion of Starcraft 2 viewing is. Never said any tournaments have died, nor that the game is dying, just simply people prefer emotion and story lines over gameplay. Never said myself


It's ok, people read what they subconsciously WANT to read, not what's actually written...

I feel like both would lose against the koreans...

Depends if socke feels like playing to his championship calibre or being an ultra mediocre euro toss remember his sick MLG run a while ago.

Once again, it always has to devolve into "SC2 DEAD GAME MOBAS WILL WIN". Are you serious? Why are you watching a supposedly "dead" game?

If he plays like yesterday he's got a great chance.

Enjoying the analysis table, they are getting better with each game and explaining and highlighting key moments. I hope they can follow dota 2 example and have a quieter more relaxed analysis environment, maybe watching a big screen and sitting on couches as they lounge about and discuss.
If we fear what we do not understand, then why is ignorance bliss?

1 zerg in RO8. As a zerg, I like this; hopefully this will stop the balance whining for at least this tournament.

Socke often makes a deep run in Euro tourny´s but he never make the finals.

Funnily enough, the only posts I see mentioning MOBA games are posts such as this one. ^^

Look, some people aren't coming to these threads to enjoy great play and see their favorite players go at it but rather just to see their favorites win, disregarding the game quality.

So when said favorites lose they get pissy and yeh...
