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

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.
