They let every caster, their friend and their dog into tournament matches and then they ban players when the players finally get fed up with having over a dozen people ruining their chances to compete beacuse of high latency. yeah it seems incredibly unprofessional :-( | ||

They changed the streaming rules, Bacon. Now only esl tv is allowed to stream the quarter final and up. If they do not stream in english, then there won't be any. You are also very rude. | ||

May be unfair towards other casters but the games and player matter... not the huge amount of casters out there.

For Wc3 players that's absurd, since it hardly ever happened there. Scores spread too fast to cast from replays at such daily tournaments. At TSL for example it worked fine, but i doubt it could go well at for example Go4SC2 cups. | ||

Last Wednesday when TaKe and DeMuslim were casting Morrow vs Dimaga there were ridiculously many casters. Morrow asked for people to leave, but not a single person left, and no ESL admin said anything. I dunno if Take and Demuslim were the ones supposed to ask streamers to leave, or perhaps there was an ESL admin, but there should have been an ESL admin (whether Take or someone else) to tell streamers and non-essential observers to gtfo. They finally played the game since apparently no one was caring at all about what Morrow said. Now this stuff happens again and it's understandable that Morrow is pissed. Not allowing Take to join was a stupid thing to do, but as I see it there was no right thing for Morrow to do. He could have insisted on removing casters and been met by silence and inaction followed by a "rdy morrow?" He may not have chosen the best option, but it must have been frustrating as hell to be him and I totally understand not acting rationally in such a situation. Both parties are to blame, but ESL is the ones that need to realize that they must do something different in the future. | ||

There are still english casts going on and if you actually care about the game, then the language shouldn't matter. None of the english casters (who are currently streaming) have any meaningful insight to add to the game. Watch muted, with german, or don't watch. edit: and if it's true, Kudos to ESL for their desire to minimize bull shit in the finals/semis. I don't feel like hitting multi-quote, but whoever quoted IdrA... he's talking about casting from replays. Not just stopping casting all together. Casting live games means more lag, more possible problems on multiple ends, more downtime for viewers because you can't just go from one game to the next, etc. Casting replays is smooth and appeases to players. Yes, it's not live, but if all you care about is the results live then I'm sure you could find updates rather than watch any game at all. | ||

Watching muted streams can be fun, but I personally enjoy listening to the commentaries without the video. It's my way of enjoying these games. | ||

im living in germany. i was visiting gamescom "IEM" where ive seen morrow playing against idra. you guys remember the interview by take after the match? "lets not talk about imbalanced" was the first thing he told to idra after the finals. anyway: i remember this stream by take. he was streaming from his home. he was drinking about 3 beers and was totally drunk. he was sitting on his couch, bouncing to some shitty gangster music. (really narcissistic), making fun of his girlfriend cleanig his appartement... finally right when the game started he was like "i have to go to the toilet"........... WTF?! something like this is called "official"? my friends and me could not stop laughing after this. also at this cast he was the reason for a big drama because he lagged out of a game and they had to rematch because of it. im just writing this because i see people here are defending the ESL. just wanted to let you know on which side you are. <3 sc2 drama. | ||

MorroW: "I told them that I regret it" "but I don't" "xD" This is nothing new, all of the interviews he claims that no other terran is up to his level yet, that he is the best terran right now, etc... Just making statements like that, with the smirk on his face after wins, he is a very egotistical little prick. | ||

MorroW did the right thing by standing up to the ESL and their ridiculous rules, and he accepted the ban like a man. On a side note, I always thought that the IEM was bs too because it used Battle.Net as a medium for play, but the fault is most likely in part with Blizzard for not releasing a LAN feature for tournaments like they promised (I don't even think GSL has that). | ||
