perhaps you are a heroes of the storm player, but in a lot of games of top caliber players absolutely do not want to let their opponent back into the game even if it means extending it and redoubling the motions to win.

then there's the fact that it's 2-2 and real money and exposure is on the line.
players would hate playing if it was so swingy and all it takes is one misplaced mistake for it to change sides at a bad time.

seriously, comeback mechanic is the first time i've ever heard it described as that lol.
your comeback mechanic is playing well!

I think having comeback mechanics make sense when your average game length is something upwards of 30/40 minutes, it is pretty painful to watch a game that has been won for 20 minutes but takes time to close and where surrendering is pretty uncommon.


So you are saying you hate lol ?
SC2 games were never 30 min on average even during the SH era

yeah if sc2 has got anything going for itself, it's that you can amove your opponent into win after getting a big lead instead of containing him on 2 bases for 30 minutes and waiting for the goon/storm deathball to walk into DS/lurk/plague and die

I don't hate it, I think it's gotten worse with time though.

I was just comparing to other games where I thinks it makes more sense, since saying something like 'this is why starcraft isn't great to watch' is weird to me.

Well, I can understand if you apriciate if you are fourteen and feel that watching boobs on the computer is somewhat thrilling in case your parents walks into the room.
But if I want to watch HSC with my girlfriend and suddenly strippers and naked girls is part of the entertainment the whole thing just looks like a lot of unmature geeks that needs to grow up. Quite hard to take it seriously.
Imagine a fotball team hiring strippers and tweeting videos. Would for sure make the news for a while.

You are ignoring my argument and focusing on the word
Games rarely go past 20 let alone have nothing happen for 20 more min.
It's not why you don't think sc2 is great to watch

Well.. With the "stars" of European Esport (who Blizzard will support with their own tournament to give them a chance to shine), at the place of the organizer of the tournament, tweeted by the caster of the tournament.
On stream or not, as a part of the scene atleast I lose the respect for these guys. If you want to go to a strip club, there are other times then on an esport tournament. Just like professional athletes would not hire strippers after a game to the arena.
