piracy isn't that big of a deal
not for tournaments

Blizzard is selfish.

yeah, fuckin' companys wanting to make profits and shit

Big deal for blizzard since it cuts into profit. This is better, u can dl pro's replay and play, or skip initial 5-10 min of game to work on mid-late game.

There's always ways around 'safeguards' against piracy

No, hackers > blizzard. sc2 was torrented like 2.3m++ times just for single player. They don't want ppl to play multiplayer too.

most people would just play online and not bring their computers to a friend to play lan

tournaments need lan play

Or just resume replay. What's wrong with it?

as seen in gsl and mlg it can be screwed up
and you won't have the lag spikes that we see every tournament
