I wrote that! iNcontroL is definitely one of the kings of standard play. Ok, I guess MLG Columbus just skewed my understanding of his style given the cannon rushing, 4 gating, and 3 gate void ray all-ins that he seemed to be doing whenever I saw him on stream. My bad. ^^ | ||

I find the cutoff lines for playoffs in the OP confusing. As I understand, there are 16 spots in the playoffs -- 10 for division winners, 5 for high-ranked wildcards, and 1 from the open qualifier... so how are all 22 of the players above Cutoff #1 "almost certainly" going to make it in? Those aside, good thread. Looking forward to NASL's playoffs. You have simply misunderstood the play-off system. The top 2 from each group go straight to the finals. the next 20 players overall go to the play-offs where they will be split in to 5 groups of 4, whomever wins their bracket also advances to the finals totalling 15 players in the finals, the last spot is taken by the winner of the open tournament. | ||

Noticed that as well, but that could be a scripting thing, easy to order a list by value but you have to hand place a list with head-to-head. Did you read the article at NASL, wondering if someone else interpreted it different or the same as me. | ||

But obviously there’s a reason for this, right? The Koreans are dealing with lag (like they'd sweep the podium at a NA LAN event), or these aren’t the best Koreans (as if someone like, say, MMA, would beat July), or something else; I'm sure someone will tell us. When they have swept every single foreign tournametn they have played in with the sole exception of Dreamhack winter. IEM? 3 Koreans Dreamhack Invitational? Only Korean in attendance won. Copenhagen? Korean win. Whatever that Australian tournament Ace won was called. MLG? Top 3 Koreans. So, uhm yes, maybe go a little less heavy on the sarcasm? | ||

The top player by points is SeleCT, an American,[...] How is Select "American"? He is part of the NA scene sure, but he is still a korean citizien, isn't he? And yeah I agree with Jinro. Mentioning the missing non-korean players and making fun of people mentioning the missing korean players at the same time is just dumb. | ||

Lol yeah...not to mention that certain foreign players - including one that I'm sure the writer is a huge fan of, judging from the superlatives - and casters themselves acknowledged that latency is an issue sometimes. I don't understand the need for a snide and sarcastic remark either. | ||

In regards to players quitting the tournament near the end because they haven't done well I think that's very lame and would lessen them in my eyes. From a fans perspective we watch Starcraft for the great games, and even if they don't do well they can still show us great and entertaining play. Also, if they persist in their games and even though they lost every other match if they win the last one it's a redemption for them and a reward for the loyal fans. I really like Grubby and qxc, and even though they haven't been doing well I'd love to see them win their last series. So player's please don't quit, show great games for the fans, it means a lot to us. | ||
