Blizzard share a place in my heart alongside Nintendo, they have earned a great deal of goodwill and tolerance from me for the games they make, but some of the decisions they've made over the years have been so blisteringly idiotic I find I don't have the words to put to it. Here, sadly, is yet another of those cases, I can't even begin to understand what they're thinking with this.

Yup but they dont stream the account sharing to 25k ppl.


Did you miss GSTL. They all play on the same account and stream to a lot more. Huk cant play with out doing this, GSTL teams have no excuse as all they would have to do is relog.

I know one is on ladder and one is not, but a rule is a rule, is it not ?

Edit : dont team house have shared accoutns too ?

the issue is that nobody would think twice about huk using TLO's account... nobody at home is going "O M G I just realized I can allow my friend to use my account so he doesn't have to buy one!"

But when blizzard calls them up and asks em not to and then threatens action they get a huge PR mess...

It's really dumb

I agree that it was little stupid to show the whole account sharing on stream, but this is also Blizzard we are talking about. Sometimes they are ridiculous - like now.

I think I'm the only thinking about what an amazing job the guy has, he gets paid to watch TaKe's HSC!!!

In any case, I feel it was merely a friendly "We know pros do this, just don't do it ON stream, please, kthxbye" that got blown out of proportion but I'm no insider so who knows what the tone of the message was.

It's not like Team Liquid only supports their products and owns multiple accounts to cast/let foreigners play for tournaments they host or anything...

i would agree with blizzard if their ladder would work properly. the fact that huk apparently can't find any games, just completeley ridicules any point that blizzard might have. gg yo

Or it could be the fact most of the people close enough to his rating are at the same tournament he is?

Maybe the issue is part that TLO is currently #1 EU Grand Master while "on haitus"?

It's one thing to "let a friend" play on your account, it's quite the other to remain in a competitive ranked league because of it. (not that I suspect he was doing it on purpose)

that surely plays a role but what does it matter? match him against weaker people then... you can't just deny people games on ladder.....
