I hope BTS sends Zyori to China again so we can have a great tournament like DAC where he cast zero games. Make this happen, LD. (I know there's nothing going on in China for TS3 I just want Zyori thousands of miles away from the tournament in a smog rich environment)

Goetta posted:Lots of teams are picking Spirit Breaker lately and winning with him. I wonder if he is legit really good or people need to figure out how to play against him Probably more the latter, because he's one of those heroes like broodmother, techies, tinker, etc that just changes the entire dynamic of the game. A lot of other heroes are somewhat interchangeable because they fill similar functions and have similar strengths/weaknesses, but playing against the aforementioned heroes means you have to kind of change your entire playstyle. SB doesn't have as big an effect as, say, techies or brood, but it's definitely there.

Caddrel posted:It weird since they're both play-by-play guys, so some of the time you hear good casting and the rest is Zyori making GBS threads it up. This M5 vs PR game is particularly bad from him. He was talking about how poor Nightstalker was and suggested he go to Harlem to prostitute himself. In my head I kept hearing, "NIGHTSTALKER, STREETWALKER."

Taffer posted:The entire point of qualifiers are to let the unknowns/unsures prove who's better. That is fine and good. But now every tournament wants to just sell hats so they have really long qualifiers (and now PRE-qualifiers) where even the best teams have to play all of the poo poo-tier teams just to play in the real tournament. All the tournament organizers know that its hats that sell tickets and most people don't care about the number of games or whatever. The only reason they do these long-rear end qualifiers is that sponsors still think that the quality of the tournament is determined by the number of games.

Sponsors don't think the 'quality' of the tournament is determined by the number of games, I doubt they even care about 'quality' in the sense I think you meant it. They care about how many eyeballs their logos and ads will reach and more games means more eyeballs. It's pretty reasonable for a tournament sponsor to want more games.

In addition, Beyond the Summit has announced additional protections against stream cheating, increasing the broadcaster delay from five minutes to three months, a delay that also appears to have affected their qualifier invites.

Or his concern that 'playing any games before the LAN will just kill the hype, ruining esports' or whatever. PPD has an obvious and practical incentive to want to play less games for more money and doesn't want to have to bother with qualifiers but that doesn't mean people are obliged to give in just because he bitches. It comes out to EG playing like, 3 Bo3s if they don't blow it. That isn't exactly playing 80 games over the course of two months.
