Tarik slams PGL CSGO Major watch party rules: \u201cWorst piece of sh*t ever\u201d StarLadderFormer CS:GO pro Tarik \u2018tarik\u2019 Celik has criticized the watch party rules in place for the PGL Stockholm Major, explaining why he hasn\u2019t hosted one yet. PGL released on October 21 the community broadcast guidelines in place for the Major, whereby content creators can stream tournament matches as long as they do it in a non-commercial manner. Since the start of the Major on October 26, there have been watch parties in multiple languages as PGL and Valve want to give the CS:GO community multiple ways to follow the tournament. This helps explain why the first day of the Stockholm Major had a peak viewership of 667,000 \u2014 an impressive figure, considering that most of the big names will only enter the fray in the New Legends Stage, which will begin on October 30. 667K Peak Viewers on 1st day of Challengers Stage PGL Major Stockholm 2021. @ENCE vs @FaZeClan is the most popular match of the day.

Tarik, who was part of the Cloud9 team that won the ELEAGUE Boston Major in 2018, has criticized the event\u2019s strict co-streaming rules, which include a mandatory two-minute delay. The North American player, who has hosted Valorant watch parties in the past, also expressed his disappointment with the fact that third-party channels can only stream from GOTV, without commentary from casters. \u201cI don\u2019t know if I\u2019m going to do a watch party for the Major tonight, probably not,\u201d he told viewers. \u201cI might wait until the next stage. \u201cIt\u2019s also super scuffed, man, it\u2019s super f**king scuffed how PGL has it set up. You have to have a two-minute delay on your stream, you have to remove all ads from your stream, you have to remove all the panels below your stream that have any ads, you can\u2019t listen to the casters while you\u2019re in the GOTV so you can just hear the gameplay. \u201cNot only are you in the GOTV with delay, you have to add a two-minute delay on top. It\u2019s ridiculous, it\u2019s the worst piece of sh*t I\u2019ve ever heard. It\u2019s the worst piece of sh*t ever. \u201cI\u2019m sorry if this comes off as rude, but it\u2019s the worst piece of sh*t.\u201d The PGL Major is currently in the Challengers Stage \u2013 you can keep up with all the action from Sweden on our event hub.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
