You are flat-out wrong if you think Destiny failed to defend his argument in that video/stream. Saying that all Destiny does is beg for attention then run away is silly. You clearly do not know anything about Destiny and are in no position to criticize the guy. I would love for YOU to defend YOUR argument, actually. Don't just run off now! @ACrow "Doesn't give a shit about the game" He may not care much for SC2 now, but it would be stupid to say that he never cared about it. He did, after all, write a huge-ass reddit post about what HotS needs, which was the talk-of-TL for at least a week. He's a controversial character, but he isn't as bad as you make him sound. I did read it, and you are wrong. Destiny "sc 2 is dying we are all doomed" post you remember that? SC 2 is fine, the people who watch it are the people who play it. Just like LoL more people play LoL its logical to link those together In fact I have no idea why I am wasting time defending this because at the end of the day you are a blind destiny fan boy. | ||

This is basically why I dont listen to any pro-incontrol or anti-destiny arguments(because they are almost always started by an incontrol fanboy) I used to like incontrol, and i watched his stream regularly, even now i could still watch his stream, its not him as a personality or him as a person that i dislike, its his hypicritical nature, and blatant bullying. Incontrol is a type-A personality, and It wouldnt suprise me if he was a bit "aggressive" in high school. Regardless of the off topic nature this thread has turned to, and that I have sadly now contributed to, I really like chanman, hes the reason i got into the hots beta, and hes a good no bullshit no drama pillar of the community that provides always current, always positive, and always quality content. The show so far hasnt been bad, and I think that it contains less fluff than EVERY other show on esports, hands down. User was warned for this post | ||

Unfiltered needs to have more advertisements. I did not even know that they were live, until reading this thread. Twitter, gotta show them sponsors like ITG. how is this show getting supported? | ||

Because I'm down here in the real world where there are hundreds, if not thousands, of artists, hosts, streamers, players, managers, engineers, webdesigners, advertisers, and producers who are in e-sports SPECIFICALLY for the money. It is their JOB. Seriously, grow up. I was referring to entering e-Sports, not people/organisations involved. Don't be mad, though. | ||

I think you mean circlejerk/like-bandwagon; people who like him tend to be immature and do so because it's edgy (evidence of this is the fact that his chats regularly "raids" people), while people who dislike him tend to have that opinion based on logic and not any kind of peer pressure. | ||

No, I meant circlejerk over Destiny on one side and hate-bandwagon on another, at the same time. | ||

Destiny (like everyone else) predicted an increase in viewerships after the release of HOTS. Your claim of him being wrong is ridicilous if you really understood his message. | ||

Yep, destiny's sc2 dying was silly, but many of the things pointed out about player retention problems with the game (and as viewer the metagame stagnation) were spot on, and some of the features in hots, i am 100% positive is because of the response to that post, since even if most people focused on the "sc2 dying yay or nay" thing, others actually tried to speak about what they thought blizzard should do to improve the game. And i am not a destiny fanboy, i don't watch his stream since 2010, so you can bet your ass i couldn't care less about he leaving sc2 because he thought it was going to die, but salvaging parts of the post which actually had constructive criticism. | ||

If by entering e-sports you mean people who make videos on youtube, stream casual play, or post on websites then most people probably don't do it for the money. If however you mean the people who actually run tournaments, foot the money for prize pools, host team websites, and spend countless hours planning events? Those people are doing that for money, as a job. Also? Those are the people who REALLY grow a community. The idea that e-sports is some fraternity of brotherhood where the common man rises up to spread the love of videogames in a climax of passion and an inevitable utopia of free content is a FANTASY. The people/organizations involved? Organizations like MLG? They are in this for money, and they have done FAR more for the growth of the gaming community than someone who made a few youtube videos FOR TEH COMMUNITY XD will ever do. | ||

I guess you and I have different opinions on what qualifies as "the money", then. | ||
