yeah, banning is right if the rules say so, however it s also frustrating when there are over 9000 commentators streamers spectators whatnot who "have" to join

Well DonKey, its a rule of this Cup. If you dislike the rules, dont take part in the cup then. He's the only one to blame in this situation.


Exactly.

On one hand if you have a player who is strongly opposed to having obs, and another match where the players don't mind, I don't see much reason to force obs on the player who doesn't want it. On the other hand, not only is it in the rules, but we just saw IdrA take penalty points for the exact same thing. For that reason, IMO, MorroW has even less excuse.

I've lost a little respect for MorroW recently. I was watching Trump's stream when he was waiting for MorroW for a semifinal because MorroW had committed to play 2 tournaments simultaneously. Trump ended up waiting for a good hour because MorroW first played one round in the other tournament and then went to play the 2nd round because he didn't want to wait 30 seconds for Trump to ask a question about eliminating maps and he actually blamed Trump for the delay. :/

That said, I think these tournaments need to start requiring casters to register with the tournament. No more of this business of any random moron with a Ustream account being able to take it upon himself to start casting tournaments.

....wow I'm sorry but this shit is retarded; to disallow a gamer from having a choice if he wants obs is retarded.

If this was the semifinals match or even the quarter finals i could see mandatory obs being expected, but not in like ro64 and such.


+1... It's not like he was a suspected cheater or whatever, if the game started on time with both players, if the opponent did not complain about a possible cheat and so on, to sum up, if the game was fair, there's no reasons for such a ban... that's childish to ban him for that.

At leaste a warning or something like that would be ok, but a ban is just ridiculous

Shouldn't of posted that picture man, you got him banned for 2 additional weeks because of it.

Nah, it's well known actually.

Okay, but you know that it was an ESL tournament. If there were too many streamers, then the priority list of kicking observers should be something like this:

1. randoms
2. friends of players / basically randoms
3. known players
4. streamers
5. ESL TV (if at all kickable, dunno. I think there's a rule which says ESL TV may not be kicked)

edit: checked and didn't find such a rule, even though the priority list is still correct ^^

doesn't seem like the require every streamer known to man to cast it, just the official streamer, am I right? (I am not sure, haven't followed this, but it makes the most sense).

I see no reason why the players can't ask for any non-essential streamers to leave. doesn't sound like Morrow did that.

And in game 3 of Dimaga vs Morrow, honestly, Dimaga lost it anyway. I'm a zerg player still sour about IdrA's loss to MorroW at IEM Cologne, and a big dimaga fan.. but to say he lost because of the lag isn't true. It was just an annoying ass time in an already tense game. It was like someone taking a shit on your head after pissing in your cereal.

I'd be upset too.

The problem the Starcraft 2 scene is facing right now is that it seems like there are way too many commentators and every time there is a game all of them want to join in. So a game that can start the moment the players join can't because they have to not just wait for the official ESL streamers to get in but then wait for another retarded number of independent streamers who also to join. Taking 30 minutes to start a game. Then what happens? They lag the game, refuse to leave, won't leave and players have no saying in anything.

Do they have a list of approved streamers? If they do, then I can totally understand it. If they don't then I cannot see the fairness in banning him.

^ no they don't. If you want to stream you just tell them and they let you in. You use the same line they all use "it's for the community"

In all those cases - Idra, Morrow etc - I'd always side with the player, even without knowing the details of the story. Chances are, usually good players have good reasons for such behavior.

i can understand "not letting caster" thing but that chat screen means nothing. Players aren't allowed to talk & joke with their friends during tournaments now? ( and no it's not like he did it in public to damage ESL's name etc )

Don't defend him just because you're a fanboy. Sure, I like Morrow, I think he's usually very manner, however this was a 100% dickish move on his part and anyone trying to defend his actions needs to reevaluate how they view things.

That said, I do find it strange coming from Morrow, he's usually not dickish at all.

If its part of the rules to allow take(or whoever is the official streamer) to stream it, then morrows the one at fault.

Also BigT does start a lot of drama wish he wouldnt stream at all -_-.

MorroW should have thought of that before he said it..to BigT of all people. This is the exact situation IdrA was in. I have no idea why MorroW would think he could do the exact same thing with no consequences.

What's more dickish? Obs refusing to not leave the game when they are lagging or MorroW refusing the laggers to join in and go with a small numbers of obs (including the official streamer ESL)
