I would love to have some players post some nice and exciting footage of matches from player run tournaments in this thread. It has been half a year of CCP supporting the community now with a lot free resources, show me where those went! ---

I agree I hated the long commentary. I loved it when I the commentary was shot and to the point then the teams brawl. Afterwards 2-3 minute review and that is it! I watch the turny on youtube after the main event ---

A lot of the long commentary was due to unforseen delays like ships getting stuck in the arena, or people suddenly disconnecting 5 minutes before teleportation to Jove space. IMO the commentators have done a bang-up job filling that kind of dead time. ---

Not only that. Especially in the final stages of the match, teams need to be prepared for the next match during those commentary. It is a huge amount of pressure just to get the correct fit and lineup under 3 Bans on each side, on top of that new rules like “1 ship per ship type” and “Cannot use the same ship type once you won with it” contributed a lot towards the time pressure. ---

I mean, last year’s AT was roughly a year and a month or so ago, and the announcement that the AT was cancelled was a few months after that, so I’d wait at least a couple of months before we see falcon’s resignation ---
