A lot of egos, a lot of frustration but at the end of the day Incontrol, Idra, Wheat, and Painuser will continue to (for the foreseeable future) support SC2 and earn their living through this community. Destiny on the other hand saw a viewership dip on his stream and found a comparative spike when he streamed LoL. As a result, destiny made LoL his main game, and at this point I believe he almost exclusively plays LoL to get his numbers. He then makes a thread that (whatever its intentions) said a lot of bad things about Sc2 and a lot of good things about the new game he's playing on stream.

The end result from this drama is that he probably enjoys an increase in LoL streaming viewership, or at the very least it doesn't hurt his viewership.

The guy would jump on Hots ASAP if that was the thing to gain him an increased amount of viewership.

I think the underlining frustration from some of the guys arguing against destiny is that he's really in this all for self gain, and attention, and what he's doing does little to help the Sc2 community.

At the end of the day, words mean little in seeing a person's intentions compared to action. Look at destiny's actions, if he prefers Sc2 and its community, what will he do at the end of the day other than trash blizzard on reddit? As if that was a novel idea.... We've all done it, all he's done is align his fanbase to his viewpoint, and what little else?

Destiny's the friend you had in highschool that stopped talking to you when you stopped hosting parties.

That is all.

Prolly no show today?
Still find it strange they're gonna let the last episode be the Destiny clusterfuck one, if you want to turn the hate generated by the Destiny army into positivity, doing a show and trying to mold their opinions might be a good idea, kind of seems that for all intents and purposes Destiny won this battle, causing so much butthurt ITG had to go off the air.

First, it wasn't a battle. And second, Geoff enjoying his wedding and honeymoon is a touch more important than proving any sort of point to a 'Destiny Army.'

Besides, you just know that if djWHEAT, Idra and Painuser did a show on their own, there'd be people going 'OMG iNcontroL too scared to come on the show anymore!'

Idra I think was at the wedding as well, though I doubt he joined the honeymoon . And if it was Inside the Game with the brain trust Pain User as the only guest I think the only people who would be watching the stream would have it on mute and be waiting for masters cup to start.

The guy who you responded to seems to be a part of Destiny's so called army more so than a TL user who actually wants the show to come back. I wanted to make a bunch of points for why destiny was wrong, but I can't really. Both sides were right. In the end Geoff and Greg can't make blizzard make a game with common sense. In the end Blizzard did make an incomplete game, so that in the end you will wind up paying $140 for a full copy of SC2. And in the end Blizzard wouldn't ever be able to make FTP with micro transactions work for SC2. So SC2 won't ever be LoL, it is still just as popular as it was at release.

Going by the sheer amount of tweets Incontrol is posting, I find it hard to believe he can't do a show but does have hours to mess around with twitter, if he's even still dealing with the whole wedding thing, on dec 7th he was already in the middle of his honeymoon.
Although I know that Idra and Incontrol have a very close connection, I'm sort of guessing Idra is not joining the newlyweds on their honeymoon, meaning he's prolly back at the EG house.

The idea that they wouldn't do a show without Incontrol because the community might make fun of him is just stupid, and I find it hard to believe it's because ItG needs him so desperately they can't do a show without the man.

As far as Destiny is concerned, I actually don't give a shit about the guy or any form of MOBA game, I do mostly agree with his argument though, but that's just something I've felt since WoW and the whole Activision clusterfuck.
With Wheat raging out however and saying he might be done forever with the show after the Twitter fiasco that followed the Destiny episode, it's nothing more then natural to question whether or not he's going to follow up on his words, and in effect, let Destiny kill the show.

To reiterate, I don't care about Destiny, I do however care about these talkshows, which has in my personal opinions been some of the most entertaining SC2 material around, hell, these days I'd rather watch ItG or SotG over any non GSL or DH final, to let this wonderful show die due to some ridiculous shit flinging fest with Destiny and his fanboys would be extremely sad, and to be honest, kinda pathetic on Wheats part.

Also, Painuser is great, shut your whore mouth.

Rewatch the past 5 shows with him on.
Listen to a subject that they talk about.
See how he rephrases his response, but says the same thing 5 times, of which his thought isn't insightful at all.

He seems like a nice guy, I just think the pen on my desk is about as interesting and insightful as he is.

Hell even the other guests/host of the show troll him.

Yeah, I like Painuser, but if I heard him say "how hard would it be to put in some form of IRC chat into...." I was going to lose my mind. Even when we knew that better social features, more robust, were comming out, he still said "If they just put in some sort of IRC chat...". He needs to learn how to drop something and find new talking points.

Blizzard functions are more robust and better than IRC...
Can it be that you dont even know what irc is?
