So by streaming all players' direct POVs it's actually a real POV and not just locking the observer camera on the players using the in-game client, right? | ||

Also Grubby is already announced as a player at DH so I don't know what's going on with that. SK is not Swedish, they're German. Only their CS squad is ;-) | ||

Then after the 8man invitational is locked in they announce they're gonna spend a shitload of money to have a ridiculous amount of casters for such a small event. Those live events for MLG aren't gone. They're still there. These arenas are side events. The # of casters really doesn't have much to do with the depth of the competition but rather the width which inordinately reduces the depth (having more casters than players, i.e. less players). A small amount of highly skilled competitors will have a higher competition mean than tens to hundreds of competitors with skill ranges few and far between. | ||

Might check out DH, but mostly for the DOTA, since their SC lineup is pretty weak. | ||

I know from the Winter Arena, I watched some games, but I missed the vast majority and I didn't watch the vods of the ones i missed unless it was a really big match, since I already knew the result. Also all the analyst are from USA? which means they're a lot cheaper to get there, same goes with djwheat, jp and robsimpson, only expensive ones would be Tastosis and Grubby, aswell as the players. Everyone just keep in mind, if you think this is disappointing, it's extra, if this wasnt here, these 8 players would just be seeded into the current Spring Arena 2 | ||
