You know what...Jaedong vs Bomber will probably happen at one point and MLG Anaheim will probably resort to showing
ZergAssassin vs Paperboat because they're two forengers playing.
Seriously who the hell wants to watch Patraeus, Miniraser or hendralisk games over the likes of Jaedong, Bomber and Life games?

They qualified for Pool Play and they're only showing the Pool Play games, that's just how it goes.

If MLG wants continuation of its tournaments and support, shouldnt they be listening to the viewers?
They just made a comeback to the scene, they should be entering with a bang with an impressive though as we've grown accustomed with MLG (WHICH IS WHY THERE WAS TONS OF HYPE ENTERING THIS DAMN TOURNAMENT)
Instead..
- Fire Alarms
- Internet goes down and 2 hour late start
- Not streaming series we all want to see
- Not exposing open brackets which is WHATS SO GREAT about MLG

Why invite star power when you don't even promote your star power?
Absolutely atrocious MLG tournament thus far

Many of the things you mention are out of their control, and the star power that is in the Open Bracket signed up, they didn't invite them to MLG. Inviting would imply that they sent out an invitation and paid for their flights.

Fire alarms, again in my previous post, yes, that is out of their control. I understand that.

But let's see..
- caster's not being heard during games..
- being ill-prepared leading to an unnecessary late start, which pisses off not only the fans but puts unnecessary stress on the players (but then again, since when does MLG care about their players)
- not being flexible in their schedule and not showing key big name matches
yea no...it's pretty much in their control, they've just done a terrible job at it.
I find it baffling that you're actually implying it hasnt been that bad thus far.

What, I've actually been having a blast! These are very entertaining games, there have been no lag issues after the large delay. Are there things they could do better? Yeah of course, there's always things that stink during a tournament. Some in their control, some not. But overall it's been really fun I think!!! Even if it's a little rough, shouldn't enjoyment be priority number 1?

At this point, it's pretty much assured that Huk's gonna pick up points from MLG.


so what you're saying is that he's gonna be in top 16... yeah, I dunno about that



The Championship Bracket is 20 players, and nobody in pools is at risk of elimiation in the bottom 4 of the bracket unless you're in the bottom 2 of your pool.

just realized HuK is the only protoss in pool B
In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

Decent chance Polt beats Trap knocking him to 2-3. Then Scarlett can beat Petraeus and Illusion beat puck and we'll have 2 foreigners at 3-2

I rather see
Jaedong vs (Insert Popular Player here)
or Bomber vs Keen, or Choya vs Oz
where there is something on the line (the threat of being put into the loser brackets) than watching pool play between players who lesser skilled players, who have already received plenty of exposure through other tournaments where their series doesnt mean as much as the winner/losers advancement/placements


None of those were happening back when they stream miniraser's game as per your previous post. As of the current games, if you really think Bomber vs Keen or Choya vs Oz has more star power then Huk vs Major then you're in the minority IMO. If Jaedong vs Bomber does happen and they dont show it though, then I'll join my voice with yours
