Doesn't look it's been shared yet, but there appears to be some progress being made, ZerO mentioned on his stream that 6 progamers have been invited to, or have already started to, do some map testing for the next NSL:

: ZerO, EffOrt
: BeSt, Shuttle
: Flash, Sea

Maybe they are testing new maps? Doubt they'd want to test Tuhon and CB.

showing more bisu/protoss bias by having 2 seasons converge during fall.

Apologies for being vague before, but it was the most information I had received at the time. Two more tournaments are still being planned for this year, but the second one will likely run into the beginning of next year.



Thanks a lot. Finally an offline tournament!

Can he participate after the ban on stream? I know they are completely unrelated things but still... Makes me wonder.

I believe the point to be this:

Since the end of Kespa, several big institutions have been announcing this and that. And then the slate just goes blank; they on occasion have trowed out some last minute tour and made an effort;

However the problem is building the trust with people; They promise this and that, and then i personally, just stop believing and stop hyping myself; Even when i read these 2 "big" tours coming out i was doubtfull allready; Its like false ardvertizment;
A sandwich shop says they are doing this and that, and 1 week from now they are not doing it anymore; you go in once, twice, and after the third time you stop going; and when someone mentiones this place, or someone wants to go there, your like "oh yeah, don' t bother, they don' t deliver"

Now with a sandwhich shop you can change, but here, how can you change? there is nothing to change too. Some people have stopped "following" bw because of this reason; Becoming an un-trusting institution is much more damaging for the scene that one might think. So instead of promising 1 big tour every season, they should get there shit toghether and organize 1 mega tour every 2 years. If they put all their energy and money into this, its much more productive than wanting to do too much;

Quality over quantity i say
"Awaken my Child, and embrace the Glory that is your Birthright"

Bisu said something about disabled people and it was in such poor taste that he got banned for about a week.

Typical protoss player. They're certainly the jocks of the Starcraft world. (and isn't it odd that I just said on skype the other day that I dreamt Bisu was acting like a jerk but Nada was cool?).

I remember some photos from the Nada body thread where Stork definitely stepped his game up. He started as a pimpleface nerdling but Protoss shaped him into a man.

I think there is a missunderstanding. Could someone please explain the meaning of jock in this context? I'm confused...

Replace Nerds with Zergs:

his is also a typical pregame speech for SKT before playing KT.
