30 matches live, you can watch only 1 stream because f**k you.

I really wonder how ghosting can change the gameplay since it's so easy to spot players in Elite...

It's not only about telling where the enemy is. It's also about telling where the enemy is looking and where he's moving. No delay spectating in a $10,000 tournament? Good idea!

:clap: exactly what i thought.
Ghosting can give a team a serious advantage. And all matches were streamed the 2nd day. That's 6h of SM just for you.

Didn't they do a stream delay like for 1 min or so? Or you mean it was open for spectating in game for everyone?

Paragon made it impossible to spectate. You could only follow the stream. This all makes sense to me.
But normally ( non-eswc cups) you can spectate whatever you want, directly ingame.

So in ESWC qualifiers there was no problem? I was worried because djhubertus mentions ghosting and plopp saying this:

Maybe I misunderstood something.


But this is not ideal:
