Its sad and I hate that this has happened, but part of it is on us for not tuning in. Err, it's not "on me" for these shows to succeed. Many of these shows brought in viewership comaprable to a mid-level popularity streamer and only for the periods of time they're on. These shows require planning and organization but I can't imagine the overhead is too much for MLG. All of the shows mentioned are way inferior to SotG, I really doubt SotG will go anywhere. MLG hopefully doing something else to match the amount of content IPL puts out. | ||

So while these will be missed by their viewers, I am ok with this move from MLG and it is consistent with what I consider an awesome vision and trajectory for that tournament series. | ||

edit: Anyone who thinks SotG is disappearing is dumb. But if it's no longer MLG syndicated that's really really good, in my opinion. | ||

Obviously State of the Game would go on even without MLGs support. I wonder if it would still be able to be called State of the Game. Though, even if MLG did cancel SotG and own the rights to the "brand", it would be a terrible move to actually enforce that. That'd be a lot of angry nerds. Angry nerds that may or may not buy MLG Gold. | ||

Just like UFC they need to have a show to talk about upcoming fighters right? Also SoTG have 20k viewers easily, so if you don't know a thing pls don't talk. | ||

Couldn't this be freeing up the time slots for JP+Artosis (or whomever) to cast the qualifiers like how they casted the MLG Global Invitational (which I assume was testing the waters for 2012 MLGs)? | ||

I think these shows had the same problem NASL currently has, by airing everyday they are way to frequent and lose their value. If he has any business sense we could see fuck slasher/SC report on onemoregame.tv, because, well, where else ? | ||
