I would rather there were any other prominent streaming service, to at least give Twitch the fear that if they screw up, tournaments will use different services.
Currently, they can get away with anything. It's been several months now that they're ruined major SC2 tournaments for a large number of viewers, especially in Europe.

Funny how Twitch went to shit after own3D died...

I get superlag... Any ideas?
|
pretty good play from Moonglade 
|
With that attack they are really even. Which is bad for Moonglade IMO.
|
Moonglade so dead without upgrades.
|
Is there any way to see what games are being played right now and in which stream?

I definitely agree, and some good honest competition would probably do the business of streaming wonders. Sadly, it seems like the infrastructural requirements in entering the market are simply too steep.

Using a US VPN apparently fixes it, Twitch is just failing their European viewers again,

I still think those drops were successful for Sound. By the end of it he had more scvs, 3rd orbital and superior upgrades. Even if it let him get hit by Moonglade's counter, he was still ahead.

Been there. I can sit and get frustrated for a minute or two for that black screen to go away and the second I post about it it does. It never fails. :D

Lack of competition hurts not just because their standards can be lower, but because they now have to support almost everyone. They have to put up more servers to be able to run like they would before since most streaming goes through them.

Moonglade seems to be handling the harassment well enough but the supply counts tell a different tale.

Just woke up, I feel like a true monster.

Hey, isn't MewTwo a pokeman?

Absolutely. Sound has had a supply lead since the drops started.
This is not necessarily balance whine. This is me thinking that the methods Moonglade used to defend were not successful.
