It's got nothing to do with not understanding that they need to support it.

I agree with what I think is Dox's sentiment (namely, that we shouldn't dump on Blizzard because they did do quite a bit despite the small scene), however that still doesn't change the fact that, regardless of the past, the SEA SC2 scene has all but been abandoned by Blizzard.

The SEA Scene hasnt Been abandoned, Over the last couple months Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines have all have national championships, next month theres going to a regional finals (top 2 from each event) to wrap it all up. The Oceania Scene however is an entirely different ball game.

The fact is true, our scene is small and for it to improve 1 of 2 things need to happen (well 3 if you include a combination of the 2 strategies). Either A) The community needs to continue to grow to the point where Blizzard has to support it and it becomes financially viable/sustainable to do so. On the other hand they can look into more ways to help grow the scene by investing more at the local level.
