Hate Speech War Report: Our Own March Madness

I watched em both but very late.

I liked the MLG matches a little more but that's expected. Im sad at Wing_Zeros Pyrrha being on the screen instead of Xiba though.
Nightmare wins both though, post and pre patch lol, awesome.

Also the last arc of Fairy Tail was more hype than both the streams combined.

I'm glad that someone else agrees that there wasn't a scheduling conflict as both events are on opposite sides of the country. For the most part, people are going to attend the event that is convenient for them to go to since most people don't have the ability to fly across the country to play a video game. And now we are in the era where everyone wants to run a major tournament, so there's going to be events held on the same weekend until people stop playing SCV, then it won't matter. But from a spectator's standpoint, I'm glad that I had two events to watch instead of one since SCV doesn't get much coverage. I would be worried if we didn't haven enough people to attend both events.

I'm glad that NCR had that good vs evil dynamic going on because without people having that rooting interest, they wouldn't have been paying attention to SCV, compared to MLG where Keev just steamrolled his way to victory.

I hope that the FGC/eSports take from each other and continue to improve on the quality of these events and broadcasts. The overall vibe that I received from watching MLG was stuffy with the lack of hype and commentators taking a long time to loosen up. I don't see why it's such a pain for MLG to incorporate our best practices. And I would like to see the streams for the FGC events go beyond just showing matches on stream and give me more from the player perspective so that people outside of this community can know who they are.

I also hope that there is enough growth to sustain this game at both venues because I'm really worried about the longevity of this game now that SFxT is out, we have places struggling to field a 16 man bracket, and the amount of people who aren't thrilled with the latest patch. We'll see.
