State of the Game is undoubtedly the best Starcraft stream without actual matches actually being featured as the focus of the show, and the viewership solidly reflects that. Preserve State of the Game, and you still have my support! | ||

JP will probably do it without MLG if they don't want to help him. the issues you may have though are: 1) MLG may own the rights to SOTG, which means rebranding the show or 2) MLG may not allow JP to do the show if they opt to nor run SOTG due to "conflict of interest" or any variety of reasons a company won't let an employee venture out it'd suck to lose SotG imo, hopefully they realize the huge following will make MLG realize dropping them is no bueno | ||

It's a good thing: the industry is competitive. The consequences are that less successful ventures will eventually close down, because the number of potential viewers/customers are finite and it has reached the point where supply exceeds demand. It's a consumers' market guys. Gone are the days where we zealously defend and support what few events we had. Nowadays how we voice our criticism, where we spend our money, and what shows/events we consciously decide to support has a huge impact on Starcraft. | ||

Nah, it's a lot different. You can't really blame them, but it's very different than it used to be. | ||
