Anyone else get the online pass for Blizzcon on Fri/Sat?

The SC2 Ro16 matches were yesterday and were amazing if anyone is still watching WCS these days -- well worth watching the Zest v Life, Taeja v soO, Hyun v Innovation matches. Really looking forward to the Ro8 matches at Blizzcon.

The Hearthstone qualifying matches leading up to Blizzcon have been really good too. Hoping to hear about the next expansion (apparently 100+ cards) on Fri.

Blizzard did a really good job on the Hearthstone stage. Looks amazing:

Yeah, I got the HS matches on one monitor and SC2 going on the other.

And then the battle.net servers died... all e-sports matches interrupted. Awkward.

Yea, Kolento had a possible win just swept out from under him. Interested to see what they do, had to pause for about 15min to cook dinner

Stream got screwed, what was the resolution of the mid-game DC?

They started over with a fresh game, which Kolento won. But I think they're having issues again b/c all the matches are on break. In the meantime, the Panels stage is talking about the new HS xpac.

Cool thanks. These SC players are unbelievable. I can't fathom multi-tasking/micromanage that fast

300+ apm is very fast, watching from the observers perspective gives it no justice.

if you watch their game screen would give the common person a seizure and they would have not a fucking clue what is going on, they have many hot keys just for camera position.

hots: Leavers

In a future update, if you leave a game early. You will be flagged as a leaver. There will be a UI for this.
if you are flagged, you get put on teams with other leavers.
They will let you get out of this group. Just stop leaving games.
