Whining about Protoss or balance will be more harshly moderated from page 90 onwards.

Before making comments on race picking, refer to MLG's rules

Trap played some amazing games, and all series were really close Forget Violet, Trap is the most underapreciated guy.
Here is a cookie for you guys:

congratz for Trap winning MLG after almost being eliminated multiple times!
Casters also did a great job!
In PvZ the zerg can make the situation spire out of control but protoss can adept to the situation.

Poor production, poor scheduling, poor internet, but great games, great storylines, and a great new champion. Im not sure whether I'd call it a bad MLG or not.

the problem is his lack of (observable) personality. Being good alone has never been enough to be popular.

The event was okay, but honestly I'm not gonna be sad if MLG don't do SC2 anymore again. Their event aren't good enough for me to care that much. It's just nice.

On the other side, MLG treated the Fighting games that weren't Smash like shit, so fuck that.

Huge thanks and appreciation to the casters for their tireless work on and off stage. They really helped and I think they are often under-appreciated.

Day9, ToD, Rotty, Catz, and Axeltoss (+Smix) <3 <3 Great job guys!!!!!!!!!

almost no koreans who are new to the spotlight have personality, it takes time to develope. the language barrier hurts a lot too

I thought the tournament was great, just a few constructive criticisms I would like to make.

1) Downtime Segments - Downtime felt too long have prepared interviews or highlights of previous games. Just anything to break up 15 minutes of Dubstep

2) Open Bracket Coverage - Maybe in the downtime have someone dedicated to reporting open bracket results / surprises. Have a stream set up that covers some open bracket games, doesn't even need to have a caster.

That is all I can say for now.

Totally agree with this. I think there should have been a few streams to cover the open bracket, as there were probably some good games there.

Even with production issues and delay, I had a really fun time! I was really hoping Scarlett would win MLG right before I left for two months, and I was glad that she won Red Bull (although I was having lots of computer problems that hampered my enjoyment). Still, she made an amazing run and in such style, and Trap definitely deserved the title of champion.

This was fun guys, thanks for making my last LR (unless I decide to WCS) before I leave for camp an absolutely fun time!

If Trap was a really hype guy but his games were terribad, would people be more satisfied?

The Injustice and Killer Instinct tournaments were blow ups.
MLG, home of console esport, didn't even bother patching the consoles for the games before starting the tournaments, the delay was insane, there was no sounds for the stations, and sometimes players for one game had to play next to a station that had another game, etc

Even the EG people from their Fighting games division called this tournament a failure.

Wasn't great or awful.

My only complaint is I got essentially one ad the entire weekend. I am going to subconsciously buy Pizza Hut for the next few weeks.
the absence of evidence, is not the evidence of absence.
