What is needed is a proxy technology, where a mirror match is hosted next to the actual match, with a buffer for storing game data so that the proxy match is delayed by a set amount of minutes.

Then, only game admins/referees would have to watch the actual game, while any commentators or other observers would connect to the proxy match.

Also, it wouldn't really be far fetched to think of a kind of dedicated spectating server software that would allow thousands and thousands of viewers to connect to the proxy server with their game client, without interfering with the actual match.

Edit:
All hypothetical, I know. But the technology in itself is really not rocket science.

Until there's a technical solution to this, casters should just cast replays that the players sent in from the tournament. The cast could start at pretty much the same time, they could start casting as soon as the first game was finished, and then they'd get more replays as they were casting and they would never run out). There is practically no difference in what the viewers are getting but we are immune to lag from observers and cheating.
