Players on the Apex Stream...

Really disappointed with both our community and the traditional fighting game community.

Melee players bashing Brawl, Brawlers bashing Melee, fighting game players bashing Smash and Smashers bashing fighting games.

Its a really poor representation of our communities for sponsors and potential new players. If you were doing it, even just to "troll", just... don't.

I've seen a lot of hate directed at Marvel players.

Just watching this **** is making me sick.

lol Stream Monsters

 

[Vinylic.]

That stuff is mostly directed from the chat.

And the chat is just full of random users. A few of them are from here.

FGC streams are normally vile, but today's were exceptionally bad. It certainly didn't help that the SRK headline only linked to the Smash stream.

 

[Lokinario]

I don't think today was specially bad.

I've seen A LOT worse on other famous traditional fighting games streams, such as Teamsp00ky. At least the stream monsters didn't bash the players, the commentators, etc.

 

[Thino]

typical Stream Monsters

nothing really surprising, luckily I dont think sponsors pay attention to that before deciding to sponsor tournaments

Uhhh, they definitely bashed the commentators...check what people are saying about Pierce in the Apex tourney thread.

Dear god, please link.

NVM, found it. Ooo "horribly unprofessional". "Horribly"! That's legitimate criticism.

It's true though.
His commentary was worse than the melee crew battles commentary.
AKA the commentary that made half the viewers leave the stream.

He is bad at the game and was bad at the game even when he did play.

...get someone who isn't a douche to commentate for the finals on Sunday.

On second look I made it sound too sensational (probably confounded something I read on the stream chat). But not all of it was "legitimate criticism."

EDIT: also wtf is that image?

Prog is my hero and I would pay to have him commentate more international vs USA matches.

 

[Djent]

Aaaand Pierce just apologized for his commentary, so I guess you guys were right.

 

[Spelt]

Prog is my hero and I would pay to have him commentate more international vs USA matches.

Especially when he switched sides at the end when USA was pretty much guaranteed victory.
Unfortunately something I'd expect from you.

I recognized some of the bashers

That makes it even more sad

I understand how terribly sleep deprivation could've affected you, and like other people have stated before it's awesome how you were able to get on stream again and apologize to everyone watching, as well as the players themselves.

I definitely wouldn't mind you commentating again in the future.

 

[PersonallyIPreferDair]

I actually enjoyed Pierce's commentary. Most likely because I can't take anything seriously.
