Still informing the other partner about it 2 days before the cast is a bit morally controversial. It looks like MLG will pick up it as a later replay restream (Kespa handing out replays.... yeah right) , but that fixes it for americans only. if they did it like before the PL in europe would start at 4-5 in the morning and would finish as most people were getting ready to go to work (good thing to watch while eating breakfast). Now we might get a korean only stream... and then latter at 1-2 oclock in the night a english restream for US by MLG. Hardly good for us. | ||

Everything MLG said indicated there will be no English stream and that their re-stream will be either from replay or from the OGN/SPOTV stream (so without the commentators actually on the ground). Considering SPL starts in two days, it's safe to assume we're not getting an English stream. Meanwhile OGN has boots on the ground and was going to do a full English stream with the commentators in the studio. Whatever MLG will do is going to fall short of that, at least unless they are planing to ship people to Korea ASAP. | ||

We'll know for sure Saturday. I really hope that tomorrow MLG announces that they have casters and a production crew in Korea ready for the Saturday games and that there will be a high quality English stream. However, I really can't see it happening -_- Like, unless MLG Adam is just trolling everyone, that's not what is happening. And I really doubt DoA and OGNwouldn't know about it if MLG has casters and a production crew that was going to broadcast the SPL games from their studio. | ||

The new TL, a bit more like Reddit every day. Remember how much OGN got trashed during their OSL broadcasts? And now for some reason they are being pitied so much? I'll ad some speculation of my own: what if all this is a reaction to the negative feedback on OGN and KeSPA thinks it can do a better job via IEG? We still don't know exactly know what KeSPA, IEG and MLG are going to do, so it is fair game to make baseless conclusions up my ass, right? But hey, I guess taking pitchforks and bitch about anything not GOM is a lot easier. | ||

No need to explode in rage yet, but being angry at Kespa for telling their business partners that they are no longer allowed to stream Proleague 2 days before the start of Proleague is enough to at least bit slightly annoyed/angry. Also still no public statement by any party is another reason to not be happy with what is happening here. | ||

I have nothing against Doa and Monte Cristo, but they're definitely not at the level where they should be casting something like Proleague. Especially not this season, after this much hype built around it. | ||

Wait, am i crazy? maybe i should just jump into the train and go hate hate hate. The only confirmed English stream has been cancelled. I'm not saying people should be panicking, but some degree of concern/annoyance seems to be warranted. Maybe something will get pulled together, but unless pieces are already in place in the background, it will be rushed and lower quality than would would be expected for an event like this. | ||

They're not interacting with the live audience, they're not going to do the observing anyway, and there would be a much larger and better selection of possible English commentators (so we would get higher quality content) if they weren't required to be in Korea for the duration of the season. I have nothing against Doa and Monte Cristo, but they're definitely not at the level where they should be casting something like Proleague. think what people mean is that we want to be able to see the stage and all that stuff and not only the games casted xp | ||
