Personal Words
By Dedmon3000 (The Author of this Post)
Allow me to rant for a few minutes. I think the Hearthstone competitive streaming scene has fallen almost completely apart. It started with Blizzard pretty much obliterating all competitive tournaments besides their own, which are being held very infrequently. The Blitzchung brouhaha caused us to lose two of our best casters (IMHO), at least temporarily. The Collegiate Championship was streamed on a third-tier channel from a place that wasn’t Blizzard HQ. But at least it was live. The last two weeks of the Global Games weren’t even live. This one didn’t come from Burbank either; the casters and the streamers did their jobs from home, which was nice but I felt was really cheap. And the competition was before the last patch, which made me feel like I was watching, to some extent, decks and strategies that didn’t matter anymore.
This activity during the year does not make me optimistic for the future of Hearthstone eSports. I’ll do as much as I can from here for as long as I can. But don’t be too surprised if one day I decide not to bother with coverage of action that’s no longer worth my time. OK, end rant.
