No news on the qualifier broadcast yet. We've reached out to Afreeca and they've sent the request up the chain. As soon as I hear something, I'll make sure y'all know ASAP.

Fingers crossed!

Update: AfreecaTV is not able to provide replays for another GSL Qualifiers cast this season. I will ask again next season.

Damn thats unfortunate
I must admit, that I Don t get why afreeca is making such a bit Deal out of it
I mean there are people wanting to watch it, they could probably make a good deal out of it.
Also it would help out the smaller up and coming kr Players a ton to get some high level exposure, wich is real tragic here in my eyes...

Anyways thank you for trying to make it happen Bald Guy
Let s hope it ll work next season though

They've basically never done it outside a few exceptions. The players dont like it. I dont think they will let anyone stream it again.

The players don't like publicity? That sounds like shooting yourself in the foot...

It's pretty much only one exception. There is basically nothing desirable that AfreecaTV gain by having the qualifier streamed. On the other hand, Creighton or aX stand to gain a lot of exposure by casting the event. In fact, he or his contacts bringing this up the chain should be the one offering a sufficiently large incentive to even get the opportunity to receive the replays. Casting AfreecaTV sponsored events is not nearly enough, as there is still more incentive passed on to aX, not the other way round.

That depends. If I sponsored something, I would want as many viewers as possible. The best would be if they dug up some streamer to do it on their own channel of course.

If they are serious about moving the SC2 crowd from Twitch to YouTube, I would try to make as much live high level SC2 there as possible.

I am aware that many Korean qualifiers have not been streamed in the past. Maybe the players are afraid of not showing their best or something.

GSL is not sponsored by AfreecaTV, they run/produce it. Streaming the qualifier over 2 days isn't going to drive substantial number of more viewers to the main tournament. Qualifiers have not been officially streamed ever, except the one-time we worked something out together, them and my company.

Astrea continuing his roll as well, sending Dark into the LB.

Edit: Misreported, I guess? Dark won now apparently.
