With this destiny loses his argument that streaming sc2 cant support him. Also it was funny seeing IdrA switching his stream from sc2 to DotA while at the same time Destiny switched from LoL to sc2.

Great work, do you plan on making the same stats for DotA 2?
now you're a mayun

The lower numbers for WCS Europe may have a bit to do with Twitch. For instance, my brother used to be an avid SC2 viewer and would hardly ever miss GSL or whatever tournament was going on. However, nowadays he doesn't watch nearly as much, especially WCS, because he is fed up with how bad Twitch performs. And from what I've read on TL/Reddit, the same thing goes for plenty other people. Although I don't like blaming Twitch for the decreasing WCS numbers, they appear to be a great contributor to the declining viewership.

Less viewers in general every month ;(



WCS is like a vacuum. Very few time frame for players to have growth for their streams.


Is it just me, or are sc2 events badly distributed? I mean there are times with multiple tournaments running in parallel, and there are times where there is nothing at all (like the last seven hours). I mean sure, everybody wants to broadcast in the prime time, but would you also want to do it if you'd have to share the timeslot with other events? And certainly it would be better for the players, as if would allow them to participate in more tournaments more comfortable. That on the other hand would also benefit the tournament organizers because it means less downtime and a better pool of players.

edit: Agh, derailing thread again, sry.

On topic: ForGG not even top50, he is currently rank 3 gm ffs.
Guess him using dailymotion and the reset of the stream just sucks too much...

Eh, the list for 2nd place was sorted by average viewers and is independent on amount of the hours streamed.
Though on that list he is still respectable 16th place.

Have you watched QuanticYume? He's a NA GM player that plays some interesting styles, not on smurf accounts so you wont see mass PF build, but innovative strategies. I recommend him!

Actually Dragon is still streaming. I doubt that he will let his skill deteriorate too much compared to now, considering that he plans on a come back in LotV, though only time will tell.

yeah it isn't "less" viewers every month it's less people watching the personal streams of players because said viewers are either watching WCS or are tired of SC2 after having watching around 10 hours of SC2

Streaming during WCS is basically saying to yourself "I will stream with 1/3rd the audience.. if that!" Streaming after WCS means you are streaming to around half the normal audience due to fatigue.

The viewers are still there. It's just we have never had so much SC2 to watch... and it's all scheduled to cover the entire day basically.

Exactly what LiquidiNcontroL says at least for me.

also i must say the viewer perspective is much more entertaining when watching casted /observed games instead of a player ultra switching between screens, never watching fights till the end and all that and you get to watch the other side as well so yeah, just more information presented in a more pleasing way.. oh and imo many streamers have strange music taste^^

Blizzard should just allow ingame streaming basically. maybe even payed "streams/observers". No need for sync or worry that someone will lag behind cause it would be delayed anyways. I could watch at full resolution, while at the same time massivly reducing the amount of data transfered. Maybe even allow caster/observer-streams ingame so i get the explanations and observing as basically an added camera/sound option so i could follow what the observer shows or just do it myself if i wanna check something.
I dont really understand why any game title wanting to be an esports major title does not include basic functions like this anyways. but well, one can dream
I might be wrong but I'm not.

I myself haven’t watched any WCS this season 3, there are two main reasons for this. The first is the obvious one, the WCS novelty has well and truly worn off now, there is so much SC2 content it’s it just feels overwhelming at times. Also there’s a lot of doom and gloom in the scene right now (there’s always been the sceptics, but now it feels more real), what with the large number of retirements and the huge overhaul between the Korean teams. I just want to take a little break from SC2 for a while and come back when the scene has settled a little.

The second, and perhaps biggest reason for my lack of interest is actually Hearthstone. It’s a Blizzard game I really want but probably won’t get until commercial release (unless they start giving beta keys for pre-orders). For the moment pretty much the only streams I’m watching are of HS. It’s a poor substitute for actually earning the game, but it does help satisfy some of the cravings

Unfortunately this is wrong;


Not a whole lot to say here. The numbers are down a bit, especially for WCS EU


Please just stop the bias. Sc2 is in a decline and will continue its decline until LOTV gets out.

Just because the WCS EU numbers are down a bit doesn't mean that SC2 as a whole is in a decline. Incontrol is right, there is a whole ton of SC2 to watch these days, especially during the weekdays, and I have no doubt that it really does contribute to viewer fatigue.

Now what to do about this, or whether this is a bad thing in the first place, that's a whole different discussion.
