Lol, I think this is quite a strict. I guess its good if they want to be really professional or something, but if I was a progamer I think I would definately perform better and show better games in a more relaxed tournament environment. Would be interesting to see what the progamers think about this. Lol.

It is fine, that tournaments run strict. If you wana be bm, use twitter. Obviously sometimes it is nice to have more laidback tournaments ala Homestory Cup.

I feel like this should be at the discretion of the tournament organizer. Aside from that I'm cool with the rest.

The no chat thing seems totally out of the blue. When has chat ever been a problem? That's what everyone wants to see. Chat! But seeing as blizz is clueless on making battlenet more social....

"I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M PLAYING SO RISKY AGAINST THE WORST PLAYER IN THE WORLD"

I'm still partial to "IMBA IMBA IMBA IMBA"

It will live forever in my heart. I seem to recall Nani having a pretty amusing reaction to having his colossi abducted by TLO in a basetrade situation. If someone knows where that game can be seen I shall be eternally grateful.

When Nerchio loses to Protoss, I want to see his true rage. I want to see him write a paragraph about how the guy should be ashamed to use the imba race. Not just gg.

I think it was right after he lost to Leenock in the DreamHack finals because that's DH boss Robert Ohlen. I could be wrong

To be fair nerchio does a pretty good job letting out the balance whine in the LR anyway

As evidenced by the Blizzcon grand finals, for example. Without all the BM in that match, it wouldn't even have broken 100k viewers.

But if that had been Nerchio raging after every game it would have been 200k, guaranteed. Maybe have an emote system like in WoW.

Nerchio spits on you.

if you look at these rules and really think about the WCS tournaments of 2013, you'll realize that hardly anything will change. in fact, it will probably be MORE fun because now Naniwa will not only say something stupid, he will also get fined for it and then say something stupid about how the rules are stupid because he got fined for saying something stupid. i welcome the replay thing, i don't think watching a replay helps much in MOST cases anyways, and the amount of downtime in most sc2 tournaments has been ridiculous to the point where i have often just stopped watching in the middle of a tournament.

It's just the boss of Dreamhack giving homeboy Naniwa some comfort. I think it's from DH Stockholm when he got second place but I'm not sure.

Edit: And while and thought about it Shell fired away, ofc

personally I have no problem with this although the caster one probably needs some calrification.

The replay rule was, according to Adebisi (stated in this thread) already a thing in WCS this year, so it's not actually something new.
