You know there are 4 streams live simultaneously? MLG broadcasts a shitton of games. I can't think of a tournament that streams more games. | ||

I know, there are lots of games but there are times when some of the streams were just shots of the crowd whilst there were games going on, hopefully they could remove that even if there isn't casting. Not that I'm complaining about MLG quality, it's excellent, but always strive to improve huh? | ||

The 2 main streams showing the same game, the 3rd showing empty seats and the 4th with a "new match soon, stay tunned" message. | ||

About HotS: At least dont give points for the winner of the first MLG, or we gonna see bad players staying in groups way too easy. (Anybody remember Incontrol staying in groups a long time cause of a 4th place, dont really makes the tournament better) Edit: But we all should wait and see i guess. | ||

It's a big pain in the ass to organize and it's hell for players only to get a fairly predictable outcome. It can be fun sure but I can understand why MLG wants something different. I just hope it doesn't screw the up and coming players (or just good players that want to participate in individual MLG's) too much. I'll reserve judgement until I see what they got planned. | ||

I agree it's a bad move, but as long as they have a pretty large bracket and several qualifiers it might not be the end of the world. Ah TL.. Where people immediately jump to conclusions and start nay-saying without knowing the entire story yet. | ||

I know it's a pain in the ass to set up 128 gaming computers at every event, setting up routers, switches, wiring, making sure there's no lag and everyone has a working internet connection, but there was something special about MLG, being the only tournament where you would be able to play live against a pro sitting right next to you for just $70. They need to have something really good to replace this (online qualifiers are not it, btw!) | ||

Probably, but it has always been a lot more boring than the live open bracket. Sadly MLG hasn't really been able to utilize the open bracket much, since they somehow never get anyone to spectate cool open bracket games. Hopefully something cool is going to replace it and not online open qualifier | ||

You need an observer unless you want to broadcast an FPVOD which is nearly unwatchable in the case of most toptier pros. | ||

Seems like at least players already know what the new format will be like. Maybe someone can leak it to Slasher or something. | ||
