Ever since I've seen the documentary, I've been following the Smash scene. I've never played a Smash game or any other fighting game for longer than 10 minutes, and don't understand most of the lingo and commentary, but still enjoy the atmosphere and the stuff happening beyond the game.
What I didn't like was locking Source stream quality behind a paywall. The lower bandwidth and reduced framerate take away quite a bit from the viewing experience. Apparently, they did this last year as well, so nothing new I guess.
