Hey, i read the post from MLG about the streams, but i can't really find out what they are going to broadcast free.
Are gameplay channel 2 and 3 going to be free? Or only 1? Also, what is being shown on premium 1 and 2, or are those the gameplay channels?
Would like some help, thx
Stephano Grubby!

2/3 are PoV channels I think and they are free, P1/P2 are not.

P1/P2 are separate channels.

Red/Blue have the pool play (shoulda read the schedule first...)

The Red stream(Main Stage matches), the Blue stream(WCS US finals) and the two POV streams for Main Stage matches will all be availabe in SD for free. Premium 1/2 showing top non-main stage matches and HD versions of all streams require payment.

edit: If you're not paying anything, everything under Red and Blue schedules are available to watch, though not in HD. If you're paying, you can see the two Premium schedules too.

Forgive me in advance, but what does SD stand for? standard def? like 480 or 720?

Not even a person with 2 monitors, 4 eyes, and double the attention span can consume so many games at the same time.

If the "SD" is anything like it is right now on the test-stream on "Med" setting - then its not better than Free GSL quality .

If you want to see the tournament then just buy a pass, otherwise you will only be able to see a small part. Basically if you dont have a pass, you can only see like 30% of the content they air from the Championship tournament, which is the only reason i would tune in.

He actually has it backwards, if you don't pay, you miss about 20% of the content, but it seems like he's right in that the late saturday championship portion of the event which are awesome to watch and a must-see will only be viewable with premium. They are champ rounds 1-4, and it seems round 3 and 4 will be running simulaneously with the kespa games so anyone who rather watch the old BW pros go at it instead of those champ rounds doesn't even need to consider buying unless it's for the HD.

No, they are champ loser bracket 1-4, not upper bracket, and you miss some CLB 5-7. While they are nice to see, I'm sure everyone would be watching KeSPA players instead.

Right now I can't see anything that's on premium stream you would want watch over main streams. I'm sure there will be some nice match up depending on how everything falls into place though.

I'll give you a hint. It's marked red in the schedule you can find in the second post.

Free Streams:
Red: the main stage stream will be streaming the MLG tournament all weekend, starting with pool play and then the championship bracket
Blue]: the side stage will be streaming the WCS USA Finals Friday and Saturday morning after which it too will show MLG tournament competition
both free streams will be airing KeSPA invite tournament content when that's going on
there are also League of Legends and Fighting Game free streams

Premium Streams:
Red POV 1/2: these are the video pulled directly from the main stage players so you can see just how fast the best players in the world really are
SC2 Premium 1: an additional stream showing MLG championship content, mostly pool play and championship bracket
SC2 Premium 2: an additional stream showing MLG championship content, mostly open bracket play until championship bracket
There are also League of Legends premium streams

All free streams are available in "mid" quality, which is something like 480p (this is not even remotely close to being as bad as the GSL free stream whoever was saying that). Premium ticket holders get all streams in up to 1080p except Fighters which is only 720p.
