Well I will skip this event. Im getting sick of the amount of starcraft I have been watching. It's getting old for me. I'm not as excited as in the beginning. That time I bought all the passes. GSL, GSTL, MLG, IPL, ESLtv stuff. Now I don't buy anything I just watch/listen to the free stream if it's availlable . I have it in the background. For when I want to watch it when something interesting is happening. But most of the time nothing is happening or nothing special is happening. So I spend my time studying during that time.
In the past I watched game till the finals ends. Like MLG somethimes ended 4 am. Now I just go to bed like at 1 AM and don't really care about the finals. Most of the time it's pretty obvious who is going to win. So that takes away the fun for me.

This is ridiculous, do we really need 15 pages of people to go on about how they don't support the move to a sustainable model. I mean we had a 200 page thread last arena, you saying you don't support it doesn't add anything to the MLG Details thread. Just wait for the Spring Championship and be happy that that is free. This ended up being $15 for both spring arenas and a portion of that is going to Grubby for me, Literally the price of one and a half movie tickets.

On a more related topic is there any reason that MLG did not work with the Korean teams with players in the event as far as the partner referral deals go? I like a lot of the teams, but not one of the teams with players in the event is a partner with the event.

Just jumping in here, can anyone tell me why this is on the TL calandar if it's not free? TL didn't put the last one up; did they change their policy?

Anyway, I won't be watching. $10 for an 8 player tourney? No thanks. There are more casters/"analysts" at this than players...

Voicing our opinion surely helps, notice how it's $10 now and not $20? I think the issue many people have with this system (I certainly do) is that it really seems to milk the PPV for all it's worth. Not one but TWO arenas that are PPV only, the first of which only has 8 players? Seriously? That's a stretch. Not to mention no live audience (hearing the crowd is always great, the Korean players especially love the crowds), so it just doesn't seem worth it to a lot of people. Communicating that to MLG is the best way to get them to address it. Kinda like the crappy 'extended-series' rule.

Because this time MLG paid TL $REDACTEDk for advertisements on the website including the "Spring Arena 1" count down above ↑ ↑ ↑

Dam why is this starting so late eastern time? Normally all tourney's have started between 10am and 1pm eastern which is perfect to let you view throughout the whole day. But now it's starting at 7pm and probably going all into the night.

qxc and Sheth as analysts make this so much more awesome. Sheth is my favorite Zerg and the thought qxc puts into this game is amazing.

wow no free stream??? man no matter how much i love e-sports not goin to happen. for some people getting the game means A LOT of sacrifices.
but, as in business people became more and more greedy. eventually people like me who pay 10$ for the internet/mo will download it from the internet for free. thank you.

Meanwhile Dreamhack is being televised on national television. I'm sorry if you don't agree with me posting this, but everyone else is doing the hard work "for e-sports" while MLG is capitalizing on them. I'm sorry if you're offended with me posting this, but I'm going to post my disfavor towards the subject every thread there is. : )

Well, it's the price of a lunch... and with so much SC2, who need lunch anyway.

Just wanted to clarify that the Point of View streams for all of the players will in fact be direct views of the actual player screens, no observer.


So you are saying that you will be streaming from the player's desktop? Not the method of having an observer follow a player's camera movements?

I will purchase this event purely based upon Grubby and Artosis being some of the casters..

and maybe a bit DRG fanboyism <3

would be fine with an ad-sponsored free stream like IPL

This

IPL has almost perfected the way fans that aren't attending the event can still view it.

Look at the IPL that was in Atlantic City. The HD stream was FREE and the amount of talent and fan favorites they had there was insane. All they had to do was put up a bunch of ads and the whole SC2 community could enjoy this event together. Heck, for what we got for free they could have put up even more ads.

I don't like this PPV model and would hate to see the day where more and more SC2 events turn into PPV.

wow a bunch of whiners ITT. If you think it's worth it then buy the pass. If you don't think it's worth it then don't. It's that simple.
