http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/mlg/anaheim-replays MLG will no longer be making replays of Tournament matches available to the public. We realize that this has been a popular feature, but unfortunately replay packs contain data which can be used to DDOS the player- and the event. Because of the volume of replays we have to process during an event, we are unable to strip that information out of the files before publication. We realize that a large number of matches are played offstream at Pro Circuit Competitions. After MLG Anaheim, we will be sending replay packs out to selected groups of casters, so that these never-before-seen matches can be commentated and then released for everyone to see. I think the tweet is referring to releasing the replays to a few casters, not the public like in the past.

Official word coming soon. Right after that tweet he responded to Duckvillelol so this should help explain things daedelus MLGSundance Sundance DiGiovanni @DUCKVILLELOL When we do the full release it will be broad. Starting with key matches for casting then broader for everyone b this was the tweet Sundance was responding to DUCKVILLELOL DUCKVILLELOL @MLGSundance If you get a chance could you have a look at my comment on reddit regarding that? Different viewpoint. http://bit.ly/omfIgt Before you thank them, look at what is posted on their website about this: http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/mlg/anaheim-replays MLG will no longer be making replays of Tournament matches available to the public.

(SEA/NA) I have been searching for them too, I don't think they have been released yet. Or if they have I can't find them, so far I think they have only released some casts of the unaired games. | ||

Its sad that GSL dont release replays sure, but also fun because its way harder to copy the players builds. MLG released it last time, and they should this time. So why raise MLG to the skies? Should we do that to every other even like Dreamhack etc for releasing replays which is a given aswell? ;> | ||

See this more recent thread MLG wrote: Once the patch has hit, we will always release replays AT LEAST before the next event takes place. This may or may not be possible before Raleigh. But they will be released. | ||

Well that's what I figured from seeing that initial announcement, to me that meant that for those of us who didn't catch the game as it aired live, it just meant that we'd have to wait for Husky or something to release youtube videos on it, which would mean a delay but that's alright...We'd have our choice of commentator to watch the videos, just a bit later is all. But now I guess this means that MLG will simply release the replays so anyone can watch now? | ||

Every tournament that has released replays so far is being totally ruined by people messaging players. Look at IEM running now. They released replays on Day 1 and now its Day 4 and all the players are crying that they are being constantly messaged by abusers. The games are non-stop spiking and being restarted. Admins are running crazy trying to find new accounts for the players for every new game. The event is totally ruined. /sarcasm etc.. | ||

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=267269 This patch address the MLG excuse for not releasing the replays. When do you think we can expect the replays for both Anaheim and Raleigh to be released? | ||

Also now with the new patch coming it will be a pain to load all those replays from the previous patch. | ||
