One way this is really gonna hurt viewership that I haven't seen mentioned: almost all the big tourneys have been using Mang0s twitch channel to stream on for the past few years. Mostly cause his channel was so huge and had so many followers. Now they are gonna have to find somewhere new. But even outside of that, lot's of people rooted for mang0 still because he was usually the best hope against IBDW.

Hungrybox always said that he will compete for however long Mang0 does, as a friendly rivalry. Once he starts missing top 8s, I think he will be out. And with The Big House gone.... it genuinely might be coming to an end. I've been watching since about 2013/2014. My favorite years were the first few Summit tournaments... it was such a special time. RIP
