Fuu--uh-uh-uhhhhny.

But I repeat: this event has been horribly produced. When the majority of stream time consists of euro dance music and a caster refreshing brackets while wondering out loud whether the brackets are up to date you have problem.

On the positive side, there is apparently great simpatico between Blizzard and ESL. They both mean the same thing when they say a game is coming "Soon."


protip: if you dislike the ESL stream, try one of the countless other.

Because the 'joke' is the best eSports organisation europe has to offer while Dreamhack is more or less a single event.
But i might be wrong. -_-

seriously I can't stand this stupid ESL bashing anymore. MLG is doing 1 fucking tournament as a qualification thing which will not even be broadcasted live and they even wanted to charge a fee for it. ESL is open to anybody may it be player or casterwise. By this they are of course having more flaws in their process but at least they try and cover these qualificationgrids as best as possible. How much do you usually get from Code A quali?

...and all ESL gets is hate by the community. great.


I agree with you in that MLG has already done a far worse job and hasn't even started to try and broadcast the event yet. However, it's pretty telling that NASL hopped in for 1 day of qualifiers and absolutely blew ESL's broadcast out of the water. Just because they're the best online organization in Europe doesn't mean they get a pass to put out a low quality product.

That being said, I think people in general need to be more constructive with their criticism. ESL could do a lot better with a good producer (which they supposedly just hired) and an actual functional website.


Of course they could step it up but kalaeris used to be enough for their regular sc2 things - who could have thought that the qualifiers get so much attention right from the start?
I think I heard somewhere that they hired or want to hire more people for the WCS season itself.

That NASL produce a better content... who would have thought?
It's basically kalaeris against bitterdam and 2 or 3 techguys behind bitterdam.
But I'm sure that it will change during the season itself.

Seems like even if he did't play code s, cod a, the simple fact that he played ONE bo3 and lost, made it impossible to play in any other wcs, yeah

Dragon can try to qualify for EU in the S2 qualifiers. However, he cannot play S1 code A and then S1 EU qualifiers.

MC is doing something similar, he played in code S and now has to wait for S2 qualifiers.

It was supposed to be just a random qualifier. The same level of production of a ZOTAC Cup ou a Go4sc2. Almost nobody predict so much interest in a tournament with a bunch masters and semi-pro players. The amount of viewers is all streams is almost 30K.

It would be incredibly stupid for them to allow people who failed Code A qualifiers to go play in other regions in the same season.

I'm sorry, but what did you expect for a large online qualifier with such short notice? Repeated filler videos in the style of NASL?

Terran players seem to have adapted to HotS very well across the board, sooo many good Terrans around.

Mc can try to qualify for challenger league no?

When it comes to dragon, he kinda disqualified himself after winning his game but accidentally publishing the result of his game as a loss. Don't know if he got a hold of an admin or something after that

NASL also doesn't have any burden to organize games between 1k+ players. Might make it easier to concentrate on casting.
Who cares though only a few troll repeating over and over how much they hate ESL, will see them on the MLG thread as well, crying about replays and kiddos spoiling the results.
