SC2, WoW and Hearthstone to be shown on ESPN3. That's 5 ESPN's better than pro dodgeball at least!

Well the good news is WoW isn't particularly exciting to watch for most people and the ones who do watch it will have already played it, so mission been accomplished. Hearthstone has as much curb appeal to a casual audience as your neighborhood crackhouse does, because who the fuck wants to watch cards fight each other?

So hopefully this will be SC2's chance to pull in a little spotlight.

I don't know much about ESPN3, is this a 'real' TV channel or an Internet-only channel that is owned by ESPN? Also isn't it the channel that broadcasted part of TI4? Good news anyway (:

Well, Hearthstone streams tend to get like 50k viewers, so a lot of people do apparently :/

It's a satellite TV thing I think. And ya, TI4 was on it, so apparently that did well enough that they're willing to try other games.

I guess E-Sports is real now. I take back everything I've ever said. ESPN three, people.

You have to keep in mind, people like to watch stupid things.

Hey that's so awesome! Good for sc2 I love that, no clue how people who have never watched wow will understand it. Played every expansion in arena a lot and it is still terribly complicated even if you have not played that season. Not a problem with sc2 since its actually more of a spectator game, super hyped because these matches are very promising too. Stoked!

I guess I should be clear on what I meant by a casual audience on a sports station, I mean older teens into young adults. I think Hearthstone's audience is right up there with the Minecraft youtube audience (kids).

On the other side of things, didn't Sundance mention maybe getting MLG on ESPN 3 oh so many years ago

I'm really not sure what the true demographic for Hearthstone is. I kind of imagine it's pretty diverse myself but I'm not sure, sort of like MtG.

Interested to see how it does on Espn3. I have never actually watched the channel or heard of any content being on it, but it will be cool to see Blizzcon on it!
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

It is pretty diverse. For example my comp sci prof and his seven year old daughter both play hearthstone . The demographic is different from MtG though, since Hearthstone is a much younger game and also easier to get into. There's a lot more people who fit in the casual demographic of a sports station and play Hearthstone than most people would think. Not sure if they'd watch it though.

Is that really how you're going to describe every card game in existence?
