It’s still something a lot of folks get enjoyment out of, and it’s not really harming anything else

Given Luolis plays Stormgate tournaments + can't get through a hard ceiling in SC2 ... What must (not) be said, unsurprising comment.

But which goes against the desire of others to see the SC2 circuit keep going.

EDIT : On a personal level, I don't care either way, if it stops I'll just enjoy SC2 for the mere casual play (I still have to test Nightmare mode). If the circuit continues, all the better.
I'm just a cynical video game enjoyer who is probably unfazed by many business dealings many would find utterly distasteful, while not strictly illegal by the law as seen in a general sense in the world.

I think LotV made sc2 into a shitty game. Sc2 was a beautiful game until the 12 worker start and eco changes. My skill issues in sc2 have nothing to do with my hatred of it. Not to mention i think its better for the game to die than live on life support by Saudi blood money.

Not my own view of what the expansion is because I don't see the starting changes as inherently bad, but agreeing to disagree.

Ditto for not discussing the Saudi "problem", I'll only do so on a separate topic. This has nothing to do there.

The cups have been great. I definitely don't bother to catch most of them, but as a source of occasional starcraft and a consistent content generator for good series here and there its fantastic.

They definitely help keep the scene alive, and feel alive at that.

Chat, how did we enjoy EWC?

Just wanted to touch base and confirm we are officially in the off-season. We are also back to the drawing board to see what the future of SC2 esports might hold for us, we'll be back when we have more details to share...
