Gom has quite no excuse, they're here for a way longer time, they should get this right asap, this is really embarassing. | ||

That would show a lot about your character. Bottom line is they need to fix this issue. Like others, I'm surprised this issue hasn't come up and been resolved a long time ago. You(Legatius) kind of underestimate the respect profesional athletes/players have for one another. Look, EU Football/Soccer/whatever is a joke in which people screw eac other up as much as possible, but in most sports (and even in soccer/EU Football, sorry for the example) a lot of players REALLY care about each other, will step up for each other, and won't cheat to win. There's always a few rotten apples, but in general, these people show respect. Respect and a good reputation is worth a lot more than a bag of cash and a shade over your person for the rest of your life. | ||

There is nothing unfair on hearing the audience if both players have the same access to the sound and previous knowledge that it will be the case. Or GOM could just spend like 200 bucks per booth on some good headphones and in-ears. Your 'solution' is completely ridiculous. | ||

Let's just accept that we ignore one of the key part of SC2 which is the all that revole around information and the difficulty to get it ! Who scouts anyway? No seriously, that's wrong, and though it's sad it can't be like say other sports that don't rely on information, live play is still different from online play. Players still have the crowd's feedback after the game. | ||

Because the game is based around the fog of war? It is like playing poker when people in the crowd can see the hole cards and tell the players... You destroy the whole premise of the game. You cannot 'play' around that. Just an idiotic idea... | ||

I just had this dream of me playing Terran on a big stage vs a Protoss. I send my reaper scouting around the map and people are cheering me and shouting at me: "Cold...cold...colder...cold...warm...warmer...waaaarmer...hot...HOT...HOTHOTHOT!!!" And as I find the proxy dark shrine already done I wake up in cold (!) sweat. | ||

If your opponent knows what you're doing it's most of the time GG unless you out play him extensively. lol @ 'absurd enough playing at a live event' It's their choice to play at a live event, you think they actually hate playing in front of a huge crowd? They actually like playing in front of supporters.. Might as well let them listen to casters and give them no fog of war amirite? /sarcasm Geez, we need a thumbs down button for posts like these. | ||

That is one of the most baller plays I've seen in competitive starcraft, the chat really made it. My HuK fandom has increased. | ||

I certainly hope this gets fixed immediately! As someone else pointed out in the thread, the tournament loses integrity because of this. I'm sure that it is definitely NOT the point of casting for the players to hear what is being said, I mean, they don't allow hacks do they? Anyway, I thought the GSL was the biggest/best SC2 tournament in existence. So for this to happen is quite frankly an outrage. You would think that soundproofing would be somewhat highly prioritized... Surely this will be fixed... | ||

Don't generalize, starcraft have their share of unsportmanship from big things like Savior to small things like Xlord. All sports have their bad sportpersonas and good sportpersonas | ||
