I had a talk with 4Leaf (owner of flash wolves) back in October of this year when I went to their training house to do some interviews with the LoL team. He told me that parting sees no future in Starcraft 2. | ||

Edit: I think a chinese team and growing his douyutv stream makes sense. | ||

Out of curiosity How does he communicate to observers on his stream? He probably knows few traditional characters but likely can't communicate in Mandarin, just curious. From my limited experience with douyu it looks more like streamers stream and have almost no interactions with the viewers. How are the stream numbers for douyu? At least for WC3 and Moba content there seems to be more viewers than twitch, is it true for sc2 as well? I don't see the point in Parting coming back to Korea, banned from PL is too rough imo. With practically everyone downsizing their rosters is there a Chinese team that can give him the salary he wants? | ||

I can only tell you that the viewership is indeed bigger than on twitch, even for sc2. MMA just started streaming there and had 8k viewers. I think Parting had above 10 or 15k before. They seem to be talking a mixture of korean and english, throwing in a chinese word here and there  . | ||

I wonder how much of it it's true, I don't believe it personally. Probably some western twitch syndrome hehe | ||

Even Douyu's website marks the number as 人气值("popularity") instead of "viewer count". My guess is that the number is some sort of cumulative view count over a period of time, so it always larger than real viewer number at a certain moment. But judging from the activity of the chat the real viewer count should be okay and Douyu seems to pay well, as the steaming sites in China are competing quite furiously right now to get popular streamers. | ||

I haven't seen more than a word of english on any douyu chat so I assume it is in Chinese. I think it is a good transition, it seemed to work wonders for LoL why not SC2? Is this even "legal" under the rules set by Blizzard though? Can Chinese scene hold tournaments that have Koreans in them without going "global"? | ||

Can Chinese scene hold tournaments that have Koreans in them without going "global"? What? You mean without having any connection to WCS at all? It happens all the time in China. It happened last year with WEC and the most recent tournament with Flash, JD, Lilbow, snute, those guys. | ||
