● The players are allowed a 5 minute break between the games in a tournament match. This might also be forced due to streaming production requirements. http://www.dreamhack.se/dhw11/files/2011/11/DHW11-StarCraftIIRulebook-1.1.pdf wrap up of the previous game, commercial break, intro to next game. so no problem. | ||

Respect their rules and respect their employees or go play somewhere else. Tournaments and Sponsors are going to make it that simple. You can bitch and whine all day long about it, but you are not in charge. Unbelievable that anyone would be so selfish and egotistical. I hope that players like Idra and Naniwa test a major tournament on being rude and get banned and lose any change at a prize. They need to made an example of. Players dont make money regardless if they cant focus on actually playing the game. | ||

That would reduce their frustration and they would stop being so rude to casters. Basically, it's the events' fault for being disorganized and if they just do things like this to smooth out the player experience, everyone will be happier. | ||

It might be entertaining to see these players bad-mouth and verbally attack people occasionally, but if Starcraft 2 is going to grow then it needs to end. They need to made an example of. lol? So him wanting to be able to play his best is selfish and egotistical? I'll remember that. You are right about one thing, the players are not in charge. The tournaments are. However, if a tournament is run smoothly and specific time constraints and good communication is employed then there will be no problems. That is on the part of the tournament, not the players. | ||

However, there is a very simple solution for players who bitch about their tournament not being a perfect experience: don't play in tournaments. Unless your conditions at the tournament are different than the conditions set for other players, you have no advantage or disadvantage in your game. Everyone is experiencing the same thing. You don't see pro football players bitching and whining "waaa it's too cold in the stadium turn up the heat because I might get hurt waaa". No, they play the game because BOTH sides are experiencing the same conditions. And they NEVER bitch about tournament conditions. Ever. | ||

Umm, traditional sports except basketball/volleyball etc have almost always been built around having weather being an element into play since their creation. | ||

Streaming and of course team support+sponsors is what keep these guys playing. Travel expenses, gaming houses, everything is paid by the teams, and every player is in a team, either a big or a small one. So, as Artosis said, the teams of these problematic players must handle this problem, because they're the main investors, and the biggest losers. there are very few palyers who are really sitting on a nice salary, your making it sound like every SC2 player is riding the gravy train with biscuit wheels but alot of them are depending on getting good results to pull through | ||

Its the players who make the tournaments. Tournaments rely on players just as much as players rely on tournaments, idra's points are fair. | ||

I said that players are supported by their teams, not their results. Only the top of the top, a select group, wins tournaments. The vast majority keep playing, keep traveling, without winning anything. | ||

Emulate Ryan Davis from The Bombcast or Garnet Lee from Weekend Confirmed. The conversation on SOTG is always so awkward and no one knows when to talk. | ||
