I wish the broadcast schedule was improved for season 2 onwards, having 9 days of broadcast for only 14 online matches is way too much, no one wants to only watch a Bo7 for the winner bracket final or the grand final. | ||

Having content during break would be appreciated, interview with players, Q&A to promote the Patreon, anything really.

Downtime stuff would be great, definitely not a deal-breaker for me but a pretty obvious area for improvement. Broadcast schedule, I’m not sure tbh. I think we had quite a few stomps, so it can feel underwhelming if it’s the day’s only match. On the flipside, a bit more prep time is there, and I definitely think GSL has suffered as a spectacle for me since they crammed the playoffs into a single day. Versus a weekender, I don’t have to give up big chunks of a Friday-Sunday, which is nice. But I think maybe the cadence could be a little better for sure. Regardless, for me a solid first effort and some great performances from the players | ||

Regardless, for me a solid first effort and some great performances from the players Regarding downtime stuff, if PiG who is doing the production by himself can do it I believe a team of 4 people can also do it too. Also to have a better production value it should be mandatory to have player cameras, PiG does it as well and players are used to do it. Broadcast schedule could be 10 days of broadcast if it was offline but given its online and a Bo5 usually takes 1 hour it's madness to only have 2 Bo5 per day. You want to have longer stream to increase the viewership of each broadcast. Having a broadcast for sometime a single online Bo7 is weird and is not the right way to increase the quality of your broadcast. I understand having a longer event vs weekend event but the scene is way too small to have longer events as there are not enough top players anymore. 13 days of broadcast total seems quite a lot for a 16 players event, it could easily be reduced to around 10 days (4 groups + 6 days for playoffs). Overall I'm happy to see more SC2 events but there are significant improvements than can be reached for the second season onwards and hopefully there will be a breakdown of the P&L of since the first month of the Patreon start date. | ||

And even when Clem was ahead later in the series he really didn't know what to do it seems. | ||

The big upset on MaNa's side of the bracket was that GuMiho didn't manage to beat Jumy. I was fully expecting a MaNa vs. GuMiho showdown in the qualifying match. | ||
