The usual: Don't flame casters or players. Don't discuss balance in this or any LR thread. Don't call your fellow posters idiots. Be excited, happy and entertained.

Or we can just have open qualifiers for ALL of the invite slots.

Seedless tournament with open brackets, sounds nice eh?

Sadly, business is the most important part of esports these days it seems.

Well I mean there was the time when esports wasnt sustainable. That was a good time. I wasnt there though because I didnt know about it.

But then the foreign scene would be dead.


I think Sen would find a way.


I'm a Sen fan but that's not going to happen. Besides which, Sen is getting old and thinking of retiring.

Well off the few games I've seen from Rain, he seems to doing some earlier SG play. Creator on the other hand is basically playing WOL + MsC, way too predictable.

Yep, and there would be no more Foreign SC2 tournaments like MLG, NASL.


Well, not entirely true. If they could still get high viewer numbers and lots of spectators nothing would change, they could still fly in the good players from Korea and hold an event. It just depends on if the fans will accept that.

Don't come in here with your "logic" and "sarcasm".


Right. Facts are imba please don't use them in balance discussions

Surely people aren't trying to use an LR thread for balance discussions?

I hope not. IT'S AGAINST THE RULES!

Anime with Powerpuff girls animation. The plot is a more mature version of it. (i think)

As much as I agree with this general view, SuperNova Lucky played out the exact same way, at 18 minutes SuperNova had 3 pfs up lining the map from his 5th...thats right 5th, to his 4th. Pressured lucky with hellions to deny creep spread and began building his raven count.

ThorZaIN never got a 5th, let creep get way the fuck out of control, didn't keep his ravens out of range of the vipers, and lost endless viking to hydras.

You seem to know exactly what these professional Protoss players who spend every awake minute on this game have to do, that's pretty interesting. What's your level, just for reference ^_^?
