Considering the various issues with yesterday's "live" showmatch and Incontrol's lapses on his stream prior to that, it's more than understandable if people voice concerns regarding professionalism.

4-2 win for Jinro. Jinro won first 2 games, Idra took 3ed and jinro 4th. idra 5th and the jinro closed it in game 6.

My question now is what is Idra going to blame it on? Maps, chees, imb units or just the fact that he playes terran?

maybe it was fantastic to you. To me it was an unwatchable 1 frame per second lag-fest. And no it's not my internet.... 30 mbit could handle 50x their crap stream.

I really would like to see a business model for NASL. The cost seem so large (400k in prizes, staff to upload and edit, whatever location the tournaments are held, ect) That i have a hard time believing advertising revenue is gonna cover it. Dont get me wrong i like whats going on, it just seems unsustainable to me.

Yes, these things shock me too. I was thinking about MLGs and how Sundance said he can throw in 50k more for pricepool for sc2, i was like holy fuck, then listened to the newsbulletin where they say they had a 20 million dollar profit for 2010 Oo

I feel the whole team (casters and production) were trying way too hard to be as professional as possible, which made them all look a bit amateurish. There is a reason why Day9 is so successful when he broadcasts from his tiny room with his dirty laundry showing in the background. He isn't trying at all, just doing what he loves. Authenticity > Professionalism.

I love Incontrol in STOG and Gretorp is also a super solid caster. I hope when NASL kicks off the are a bit more relaxed and try to have fun at what they're doing - then I think they will be just fine.

on xel naga he has nothing to blame but himself, 2nd game was nice map abuse by Jinro, should have reacted better, as for the mech game where he could kill like 5 units in the whole game and for last game where almost pure marine obliterated his 5 base eco with Hive, well im sure he'd be blaming that on balance.

I didn't like the showmatch for 1500$ being casted as a replay

And I think the NASL has to do a lot to be able to compete with gsl. Because nobody wants to buy GSL and NASL Premium I think. All in all I think there is way to less music and stuff.

yea, blame that on balance when 30 minutes into game you don't have baneling speed and no upgrades against pure 3/3 marines, rofl.

what you are saying is true, but you re not playing Z, then you'd know how frustrating and upsetting is to lose to the basic infrantry unit mass 30 min into the game when you have max tech and good eco, even if you crush several armies. probably not imba, but sure as hell mind wrecking.
imagine your voidray-colo-motership army getting destoyed by mass zerlgins with some support

The event was somewhat stale, replay casting with audio out of sync, over hyped announcements, choppy stream... I just didn't get the feeling that it was worth much, I couldn't even get into the event itself, I love Idra and TvZ but..... hmmm it was just missing some something...... I have to agree Authenticity > Professionalism

This professionalism preaching is spoiling events, give me a fun event where the casters are enjoying themselfs for the love of the game and entertaining us as best as they feel rather than these imposed rules and standards and commonly used phrases... Actually just started watching Debo's Restream of the event and already 5 minutes into it and its feeling much better

Hmmm, Vod is so choppy it's unwatchable.
With the live steam for JustinTV, we can select quality right?
Can we do the same with the VODs?

Another thing that needs to not happen when this gets rolling is that we need to NOT GO TO INCONTROL DURING THE GAMES!

It was really frustrating when midgame we go to the casters when I felt it was useless because you could already see them in the bottom right corner.

I want to watch Starcraft, not look at people sitting behind computers. That needs to NOT happen again midgame.
