To the detriment of other players' focus. He surely means well but it's distracting, completely unnecessary and even paternalistic. It also kills the flow of the game.
@@GQ2593 Detrimental to others. No it’s not, acknowledging good darts thrown, or a miss for a 9 dart finish, is patronizing to others at all, to me it shows good sportsmanship.
Appreciating good darts is such an awesome quality, I play with anyone I love to see big scores and awesome checkouts..... I think his appreciation for his opponents play is a breath of fresh air considering most say they "play against themselves"
The unicorn boards looked like something that had been thrown at for years after a few legs when they were used and the amount of darts falling out was a joke. Because the board was shit people were using dart points that would tear it apart even more when they retrieved their darts eg Whitlock
And just listen to the sound the darts make as they enter the board. Pure quality from Winmau Unishit boards sounded like someone throwing a hammer at a wall
Immediately thought the same. Never thought I'd be thinking "that's a damn sexy dartboard". XD Looks velvet, self-repairing, bull not recessed half a foot, etc.. So much nicer. Even Whitlock can't tear these up. :D
Great to have these highlight videos. It would be even better for those watching without knowing the results if the nightly winner was not featured in the cover photo. Now that we know that’s what happens it will take the element of surprise out of the highlights packages.
@@NicolaiAwesome well if that is the case I am extra pissed. I have sky but find it difficult to find time to watch several hours of anything so I watch the highlights instead
@@lewiswarke2049 The sad part is that I wasn’t joking - I really do believe they use it to push their product. Which is.. well, whatever. It’s a business and I get it but it’s cynical for sure. What I would love to see - being an ex-pat - is subscriptions being offered via YT. I barely watch any regular TV anymore and I think having PPV or subscription here would be another cash cow.
Best line up for years and liking the new format!. That Blade 6 is such a good looking board. Like the grey number ring. Very sleek. Also just noticed they have their names on Ipads at the table!.
I love my blade5 and really planned on at least waiting a year or two, maybe get something on sale...ten minutes into the premier league today I ordered the blade6 triple core lol
if Unicorn hadn't stepped down, they'd still be using those boards. They should've swapped the second the BDO died. I've been using Winmau for years and Blade 5 was the first Blade that was really worth it's saleprice. Blade 6 is probably even better and clearly much better than any Unicorn board. Thanks for uploading this btw, a good alternative to the money grabbing that is Viaplay. Not gonna pay 13 bucks a month to watch some darts.
Lovin the Winmau boards, super smart, huge difference and the new format. Those boards are the darting equivalent of a Honda engine growling in F1, the thud when it hits the board, and almost no damage, unlike Unicorn, awful.
The numbers on the board at 4:51, I swear it looked like the numbers have jewels in them. Had to pause to make sure they weren't diamonds. Great boards!
@PDC - let's not go through the whole premier league with you putting the winner each night on the thumbnail ok? 😃 just put a PDC logo or a pic of all the players as a thumb nail
Was it really necessary to put that title with a screenshot of Peter Wright? It would be nice to watch these games without knowing who is going to win....
IDK why, but the Winmau board seems to project positive aura on the stage, and the players. With the format, i definitely am a bit confused. No matter though ... i just love watching the masters clash.
Wade is such a weirdo. That look he gave Clayton when he lost.. have some humility and respect for your opponent. Or play better. Same goes for MVG. Gonna have to up your ante, son. No use telling everyone you’re the man when you clearly aren’t!
The right competitors play a knockout tournament each night, with the quarterfinals matching up each player against all the others once over nights 1-7, then again from nights 9-15. Nights 8 and 16 are formatted using the rankings of the league at those times. Winning the QF game nets 2 points, winning the semi game gets you another point (3 total), and then the winner of the final each night gets 5 total points and an extra 10 grand.
@@ThorHC11 I’ve never minded darts but recently just got really into it so thanks for explaining the format my mind was blow trying to work out what was going on 😂
Can someone maybe explain it in a short n quick way to me I don't get this are they still doing the league table as well or what I really don't get it lol 😂😂 sounds dumb but I do apologize 😑😂
