Was it Scorpion's sole decision? There was a meeting, and a group of people made the decision. And personally, I don't approve of such harsh words, especially when not fully aware of everything.
And is this extremely negative criticism specifically because the streamer stopped streaming? (Although it's far from certain that this event was the reason; the decision to suspend streams had been brewing for a while. And this break seems to have benefited the streamer in terms of gameplay; consider that as well.) So why is the judge being singled out as the ultimate culprit in this particular case, while in all other tournaments, flaws can also be found? Why aren't you looking for them there?..
People here are trying, working on something with enthusiasm, and many are making unwarranted negative comments without even trying to understand.
By the way, why don't the most dissatisfied viewers try streaming themselves? (Let's estimate: suppose the Heroes 3 audience is 500 people. Let's say that 1/10 of them have the time and hardware to stream. Of that number, 1/5 have good communication skills – that results in at least 10 full-fledged Heroes streamers. This is a minimum; the actual number is much higher). So why do you only want to take, and not give back?
And stop looking for scapegoats (the streamer is partly to blame, having set, in my opinion, such an absurd ultimatum).

P.S. I didn't want to offend anyone specifically; there are many such people.
P.P.S. I am strongly against disqualifying a player during a tournament and still believe that the decision was wrong, although I can understand the judges.
