Have you never watched any kind of event before in your life? Not even live sporting events start the action right at the scheduled time. There is always filler at the beginning.

Stuff like this does not need 30min of fluff imo.

Even pro sports I watch on TV don't take 30min for games to start.

i bet they talk because the players/Pcs arent ready yet, not delaying the players because they want to talk.

eh I agree to an extent, they should say "Pre-show starts at 10:00 cest", just like other sports shows, then the actual "game" with like 15-20 minutes of fluff included, starts at 11:00 cest,

That would be ideal. MLG usually posts times like that, but when some event doesn't explicitly say there is going to be a pregame you should just assume it.

This is going on longer than they planned I am sure because of some kind of PC issue.

Exactly this. I would have nothing to bitch about if this is how it was laid out. When something says fN vs M at 10cest I expect game to be on verge of starting with players already setup. If it said 10cest pre-show and match starting 10:30 I would have been cool with it.

The British commentator reminds me of Ricky Gervais and now I can't get his annoying laugh out of my head.
