Not claiming it's truly 720p, but the picture quality for the whole stream has been noticeably fuzzy and low quality since the start of playoffs. I figured they might have noticed and fixed between quarters and semis but it still looks off.

This whole event feels like BLAST let go of a portion of their production staff with the weird audio interference issues and issues w/ scene switching and queueing shoulder content. There's been an unusually high amount of production issues this whole event.

Go to youtube, the 1440p stream is nice. I opened twitch today and noticed the same thing, their twitch stream is dogshit for some reason.

I never watch on twitch so I can have a pause button. It's not just a twitch issue

Must be on your end then, try switching different resolutions in the player, turning off hardware acceleration and back on, clearing cookies all that nonsense.

The quality is totally fine.

Kick has a pause button if you prefer a more Twitch like experience but with a pause button

Sorry you have bad internet, but that is neither blast or my problem.

Good quality 1440p60 on Youtube for meGood quality 1440p60 on Youtube for me

It’s been looking like a smeared vaseline filter over everything since day one of playoffs, the bitrate is absolutely tanking on any fast movement

How are you watching the feed exactly? Twitch on a Windows PC?

The quality should be as it usually is

It’s a you problem. Not a Blast problem. Do better.

Youtube on windows, I've swapped between the official BLAST feed and fl0m's co-stream, who's also watching via BLAST's youtube feed. I figured I must be crazy until fl0m mentioned the stream has been looking fuzzy as well.

Flipping between both fl0m's YouTube stream and the official YouTube stream, they both look slightly fuzzy.

Its a you problem, its 2k for me on youtube on my tv
