Yeah, I think that's fair. The antithesis of 2013-2015 sOs, if you will.

ToD is a RTS mastermind, one of the all time greats in WC3, stop questioning his pedigree, its asinine.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

He's won 3 GSLs so he has to be pretty good at it, but just from watching his games there wasn't anything that convinced me that he out-preped his opponents.

Yep, I think his loss to sOs was definitely just a function of them being teammates and sOs being ridiculously prepared for his proxy strategies.

i'm amazed that an event with 70,000 viewers can't sell a single ad to an outside company.

70k is a pitiful number for any advertiser outside of gaming industry tbh.

are you sure about that one

Yep. 70k when spread over entire western world (or even more) is just a pitiful number.


People with 200 avg viewers can sell ads on twitch.
Thinking 70k live viewers for a targeted audience is bad advertisement space is delusional.
It is obviously a choice by Blizzard to not sell ad space for Blizzcon, as it is their own big marketing event.

If i remember right, people with 200 avg viewers can use twitch to provide ads (and split the revenue) on their stream, that is just twitch cutting a large pie of advertising avenue created by large amount of streamers.


They can also get private sponsorships deals.
A friend of mine started streaming online poker and at around 50 avg viewers he was approached by multiple companys to put paid ads on his stream.
Just to show you how highly valued targeted audiences are in terms of marketing.

Well sort of... But he also was winning a lot over an unsolved build: his mastery of proxying gaining him an advantage in the early game or outright winning it. He was still winning in the late game, but most of his wins came from people not knowing what to do against his proxies.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Interesting to note that Maru was incredibly successful in the pro-league format where significant preparation was the norm

Yeah he was just straight up better

Tod was always pretty good at SC2. I just dislike his personality, and those horrible tatoos. He looks like a dork whos trying to look super cool but failing hard with it :/
