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.

Creator is really bad at handling drops + Polt is pretty good at them = Creator's getting raped D:

You can blame the balance and medivacs for being too strong. But WHY THE HELL DO TOURNAMENT ORGANISERS TAKE WHIRLWIND OUT OF ALL MAPS, THAT SUPPORTS THE SPEED MEDIVACS THE MOST???

User was warned for this post

Because it's one of the standard tournament maps and a ladder map... whats your point?

why don't you have a writer icon?

does that mean I can fire you?

you know what i have noticed? nobody panics as long as things go "according to plan", even if the plan is horrifying! if the casters would announce that a colossus is about to get sniped by a fleet of vikings, or that a squad of marines about to get electrocuted by a psy storm... nobody panics. because thats "all part of the plan". but if when a casters announce that one, quick little medievac drop is gonna sneak in and snipe a nexus... then everyone loses their minds!

introduce a little drop pressure. upset the established meta-game, and everything becomes OVERPOWERED
you no take candle

Oh god, some of these MLG's casters are really showing why they don't really appear in any other tournament.

Some casters definitely work better together. DJWheat and Husky are definitely no Incontrol and TB.

They really need to stop doing region based qualifiers. Otherwise the main tournament is always going to be a stomp.

Or Korean seeds could be placed higher. And they could be entered by anyone. Maybe they can start in the money. That way we get 2 rounds or so of foreigner LQ play.


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


But then the foreign scene would be dead.


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.


Some people say they are only interested in the best players, the Top Koreans, and fair enough. However I think that the viewer figures tend to drop once all the Foreign competitors are eliminated, this shows that significant sections of the audience do care about Foreign participation. People can argue about whether that should be the case, but it IS the case regardless.

Less viewers equals less prize money which leads to diminishing returns, less prize money, tournaments getting smaller wrt number of competitors, harder to find sponsors, less money to fly over Koreans etc. Tournaments are not charities, they have to be profitable in the long term. They need to take steps to maintain viewers or the scene will die.

Maybe Tournaments can have major regional LAN tournaments, with a Championship being more global. WCS worked very well, so maybe something similar.


People like different things. Some people want to see Koreans and others want to see foreigners so thats why tournament organizers pay for flights/hotels so we can have both. IF Korean domination is such a big problem then let the tournament organizer handle that. There is a reason why tournaments like Iron Squid invited a shitton of Koreans and why NASL went right back to having Koreans after one season without them.

Jesus how is creator sort of on equal footing :O

Come on Creator, with a 1600 bank at the time I feel you could've thrown up a couple cannons in the spot that Polt dropped you four times. IT might not stop the drop but it'd delay, maybe kill a medivac, and allow for him to reposition T_T

Killer still headbutts his casters into things. My first impression of him in 2011 still remains. At least they're on a separate hotkey this time around.
