I can’t tell if Wax is trolling us or not, but if this is true it’s the best example of money where mouth is in all of esports! It’s depressing to feel like even a peep about legitimate human rights issues could be so triggering. | ||

The world would be a much better place if more people had them, or at the very least didn't pretend and betray theirs. | ||

I hope you're all ready for a dearth of previews and a lot of random nostalgia pieces. | ||

Players and casters worrying about their futures first and foremost, us fans second. The org is choosing to spend all of its SC2 kitty on one vanity tournament when it’s absolutely not what the scene needs. I’m not Oliver Bloomin’ Twist with my wee bowl going ‘please sir, can I have some more’ and willing to overlook basically everything associated with this whole Saudi Shebang. One’s mileage may vary, I’m not about to piss on everyone else’s cornflakes. Just not my cup of tea, at all. GLHF, if folks wanna watch and get enthused, cool. I think the community has stepped up pretty well thus far, alas it’s not really enough without the skeleton of even a couple of regular circuit events to support much of a full-time pro scene of any depth. But neither is EWC without that skeleton. | ||
