Go in a SC2 drama thread and see if you can find at least one mature respond there. I can tell you, you will not find one. And most SC2 drama threads are not about killing the only remaining last stand in high-level starcraft. And yes this is what I just wrote. SSL is the only tournament where we can watch professional play. Imagine taking away every major tournament for SC2 away (GSL, OSL, MLG, Dreamhack, IPL, Iron Squid, ESWC, WCS, LSC, etc.). You would be just as pissed as we are...

Wow thx Blizz! Esports really needs awsome developers like you guys....
Hope they can make the Finals happen, even if Blizz tries their best to make it as difficutl as possible.

Blizzard are shitting on someone's incredibly hard work, huge efforts, money, time and inconvenience, not for the first time. Goddamn it, they are so fucking insecure. Wankers, the lot of them.
This is actually a little heartbreaking. Did you see where he was going to host it? Did you see who he had commentating? This would have been just such an amazing event, and Blizzard come blundering in to ruin the day yet again. Anyone who can stick up for their side of this is living under a rock. And should be living under a bigger, sharper, heavier one. Fuck, fuck, fuck!

Fuck you Blizzard.
Btw, Shockk is a classic example of ignorance. Move along.

What the fuck
I mean what the fuck, why blizz would make something like that
|
Blizzard forgot Brood War is their own product, they should not promote rivalvry of the same franchise, even if they WANT it(so more people will buy newer stuff = SC2), they still shouldn't do anything for simple PR sake.
Imagine this, Blizzard HELPS Sonic Starleague organize finals. Fuck this is PR win, Blizzard cares for old and for new. Nah nah nah. Hots coming, no distractions.

you'd be surprised how many would back this up though.

Oh, I'll gladly leave. I appreciate your response; despite the overwhelming arrogance, yours is still one of the more level-headed replies.
Yea, given my current irate emotional state your seeing the nastier side of me.
While you're all busy circlejerking, remember that this thread and these posts are TL's response to the situation. You could have taken the high road, waited for the other side to make a statement and either stayed silent in the meantime or at least have taken a more civil approach.
My point here is It literally doesn't matter what blizzards statement is. There isn't anything they can say other than "oops, wrong tournament" that could make the situation acceptable. It's a massive dick move no matter which way you slice it. This is a pretty damn big deal for the BW community, and in this case its moderately analogous to questioning people for cursing out their sister's rapist face to face. Yes, that's overly dramatized, but it's pretty analogous. BW really is that kind of meaningful for many of us here and this is a serious, serious blow.
Instead, it's gone right to the ugly part - SC2 is killing BW
Not reallty.
FUCK BLIZZARD,
Yep.
"we don't want SC2 fanboys in here"
Not neccessarily
FUCK BLIZZARD, FUCK BLIZZARD.
Yep
So mature. So manner.
I agree, but I don't really except manner or maturity here. If you do I really believe your dramatically underestimating the emotional involvement so many of us have in the game.

This makes me fucking sick. Blizzard can go fuck themselves.
|
what the fuck is this shit
.......
i was looking forward to the finals
|
This is so fucked up. What could they possibly hope to gain from this?
|
I saw this coming from ages ago, but...
FUCK
WHAT THE FUCK
All you do is fucking sue, sue, sue, without realizing the opportunity of marketing. You can still fucking sell BW if you want. I'll buy that sucker just cause I already love the ICCup version. But HOTS? Fuck no. I play the Beta and it's fucking worse than COD on a Nintendo 64 using a PS2 controller.
