I think it's kind of funny how much they pushed FFA the last month, could add it as a matchmaking option for a while or something.

Couldn't stay awake for all of it, so I watched the rest in the vod.
What great event, so much laughter and fun. Hopefully we will have more of those events, just like the wc3 and SC:R events. All of them were great.
Hopefully some top players will be invited next time!

Seriously though, why oh why would you make Starcraft I's 20th anniversary event about SC2 pretty much? Seriously this shit is starting to annoy even BW people that aren't that opposed to SC2 like me.
Why invite a "Livibee" or a "HuK" or a "PiG" or a "UpaTreeZelda"? Why not invite some koreans that can speak english reasonably well, f.e. JD and Sea and have them play a Best-Of-Seven of seven legendary maps throughout BW history (Lost Temple, Gaia, Luna, Andromeda, FS, etc etc)
Why not invite people that stuck with BW after SC2? Like a Bonyth or an EonZerg or anyone that can talk about the history of BW after SC2?
Don't get me wrong, you can also invite one or two SC2 personalities since the forced switch of the korean pro scene had a severe impact on the current korean BW scene, but this feels like it is more about SC2 than about the "birthday child" aka Starcraft 1. And hence it feels like the people organizing this are shitting onto the legacy of BW, by just thinking about the BW history prior to SC2 and then it will probably be all about what happend in SC2. Sorry that feels like a betrayal to every BW fan that stuck around with BW after SC2. And you can only do it that often, before people start to feel very bugged about it. Now Incontrol can step into this topic and cry about people trying to bash anything ever organized... but seriously this shit is getting old and maybe, just maybe, you could consider asking current BW people about their oppinion how such an event could look like. I am sure NONE would have suggested inviting people like those mentioned above...
Also the fact that this was only posted on SC2 general forums, says pretty much everything... To be fair, one can argue that they are celebrating the SC franchise as a whole and it's 20 years old then. I wouldn't infer much from the fact that this was posted in SCII general either. I do agree that they should've included more BW players/community figures etc... to truly balance the heavy amount of SCII personalities there are because as it stands, this does feel like it's more a Starcraft II event than anything else. Either way, watch if it's interesting or just don't if it's not your cup of tea ^^
Yeah it's always a slap in the face when they make it all about a game that hasn't even been out over a decade let alone are missing a big chunk of people who made the game it is today whether they invited them and they declined. It's pretty much dominated by Americans who have stuck with the industry whereas the other guys are long gone.

He gets paid to say awkward and cringe-worthy things on stream. You don't get paid to say awkward and cringe-worthy things like this on TL. Who's winning? Yeah. I’m sure Blizzard wants condom stories on their 20th anniversary stream, lol. As long as it's not alt-right or racist/sexist shit, who cares?

The event was about StarCraft and they spent the entire time talking about and playing StarCraft?
