Meh. MBC commentators are so much more fun than OGN's. I guess he is getting a better payday, but I think he is going to miss the fun of MBC.

I don't know about the commentators, but during proleague, I like the OGN camera operators and the OGN observer a lot more than the MBC ones. The OGN one cuts to the crowd at appropriate/exciting times and it seems that the MBC observers often miss sudden action in a game.

And if I'm not mistaken, it was really awkward when MBC dubbed their choice of game winning music over the actual sounds at the location - I'm guessing the OGN commentators and music were the ones played to the crowd?


are you kidding?

I absolutely HATE OGN's frequent crowd cuts that interrupt IMPORTANT action all the goddamn time.

Nah, they should do it more sneakily. Right now, most of the time the girls manage to raise their fan support shields in time, so what's the point?

Quick Update

Saturday and Sunday: Jeon Yong Jun, Kingdom, Nal_rA
Monday: Jung So Rim, Kim Chang Sun, Kingdom
Tuesday: Seong Seung Heon, Kingdom, Nal_rA
Wednesday: Seong Seung Heon, Kim Chang Sun, Nal_rA

So it looks like OSL casters of Kim Carrier and Um Jae-Kyung won't be working on Proleague anymore, which is good as it allows them to concentrate on OSL.

Kingdom and Nal_rA on Tuesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays
That means they'll be doing Woongjin vs SKT, Hite vs Oz, and KT vs Woongjin

I'm glad to see him still doing well. With SC2 on the horizon, I wonder how much some of the people in that business are at least a little worried about what will happen if SC loses popularity. Obviously if SC2 completely fills the void, there isn't much to worry about, as long as they put in the time and effort to learn it. (P)Nal_rA shouldn't have much issue there, I wouldn't think.

This news is actually somewhat dissapointing. Very often, people give the MSL less credit simply beacuse it is not as old as the OSL (even though the MSL has essentially gained equal reputation and coverage since it`s KPGA days). Since (P)Nal_rA was one of the most well-respected progamers due to his in-depth game knowledge, his position as the MBCGame commentator helped alleviate that negative reputation somewhat.

Since he is now leaving to commentate for OGN, this could very well go to reinforce the "OSL>MSL" attitude. While (P)IntoTheRain is a good addition to MBCGame, he simply does not enjoy the same amount of reputation and fame as The Dreamer.

Oh well, I am glad that (P)Nal_rA will at least remain directly involved with the progaming scene.

^ it's a personal choice whether to see osl as superior to msl or not these days. and most ppl have good reasons to think osl is better.

for me it's always been OSL >>>>> MSL. It's where pro reputations are cemented. Not to mention OSL final stage is always so big and grand the commentators' voices echoed.

(P)Nal_rA went over to ogn to be with (P)Kingdom, lol cute

The problem with that logic is that some of the most well-known players (including Bonjwas) cemented their reputations through the MSL. Iloveoov, Savior, Bisu, Nada...all of them and others made their mark as top players by winning the MSL.

Also, please enlighten me on those "good reasons", beacuse, quite frankly, the only reason I have seen so far is nostalgia...and that hardly qualifies as a "good reason".

I do agree with you, however, that it is a matter of personal choice. Of course, that implies that the leagues are equal and that preferences simply come down to personal taste.

O.O!!!

Well I can't say I'm happy for Nal_rA but I do wish the best of luck! So I guess being a MBC commentator wasn't his true nature??? So what does that leave us...

Nal_rA ---> Player, Gamer ---> Progamer ----> MBC Commentator ----> no military service due to disability ----> MBC Commentator ----> OGN Commentator ----> Teacher + OGN Commentator?

What's next, Nal_rA becomes a head coach of his newly made team??? and then it becomes a big brawl between the Nal_rAs and the BoxeRs......

naw he's an amazing commentator, it's just that I am kinda butthurt there won't be the whole "OMG KING IZ BETTER" or "OMG RA IZ BETTER" thing. Friction = Moar ratings

However I do understand why OGN did this. Ever since TheMarine left their ratings did plummet to the ground
