Other, NASL.

IPL had great production for sure, but NASL had so much entertaining content, great casters and great matches, and almost no downtime at all. I had tons of fun watching that.

MLG Fall -- it was the first event I have attended to this date and easily the best experience I have had with e-sports; especially the moment Life won.

Biased? For sure, but I can't give any other answer.

MLG by far, to me the mvp invitational build up a lot of hype and watching flash live up to that hype was great, plus seeing halo at an mlg again was amazing.
IPL5 would have to be second though, just the sheer amount of content even though I still feel like ro4 and finals shouldn't be played on back to back days with all 4 players also playing another tournament...

But I'm also biased as fuck having watched mlg for 5+ years now, to me their events are always by far the best.

DH > IPL5 > NASL

But all of them were so damn good, it's not even funny. A lot of excellent esports content coming out these days.

DH Winter / NASL, but I'm biased.

NASL put on a really good, fun show though, deserves a vote spot.

IP5 in quality of live event

NASL for entertainment
It's easier to be terrified by an enemy you admire.

BWC 1st, DHW12 second, and NASL was 3rd. I dunno about you guys but day1 felt off towards the middle. Or I just really needed hockey and NASL =/

Agreed with PhoenixVoid ^^. There were so many participants in IPL5 that were the best in the world, which created a lot of competition. However, NASL4 definitely had the best production and was the best to watch. Great job to them on their skits and production overall.

I voted MLG only because it was my very first E-Sports event! Hopefully I can go to more in the future!

The production was nearly the same for IPL5, Dreamhack, and NASL. The thing that made DH better was they didn't have to say "heyyy we're doing FREE HD this time" and although it sounds dumb, free chat.

Yes, there are a lot of trolls in free chat but when something amazing happens that rarely does happen, and the chat goes crazy, you get nerdchills. You actually feel like part of the community in a non-ppv chat. (IPL5 said they had free full hd, which is 1080p, when they actually had 720i) Don't get me wrong, spending $10 or $20 for a season of being able to chat and watch in HD (which dreamhack already offers for free) may be great for some people, but I don't support segregating the community like that, when you could do the same exact thing, without having to go into fan's pockets..

People may counter-argue that IPL or NASL can't run if there are no subscriptions... All I'll say is LOL because if they have enough money to put up around $80k in prize money, don't you think they can spend $2-4k on production?

I attended both IPL5 and NASL and would give IPL5 the win in terms of live experience. NASL was great but the crowd was very small and IPL5 just had so much to do and see

IPL5 was definitely the most epic of all, therefore I voted for it. NASL/MLG/Dreamhack have also been pretty good.

Cliche, yet IPL5 was just so well done and AWESOME to watch. Not that any of the events here are bad, as I loved to watch them all, but IPL reached out not only to the e-sports watchers, but those who are not familiar with playing games competitively.
