Wow, they seem to make everything right within the first minute - impressing!
A little comparison of viewers at the moment:
NASL: 602
IPL: 9543

Get a clue, some people just don't like a 'wacky hehe so random' bronze-player casting tournaments.


And thanks to those people, SC2 will stay between reddit/TL

NASL should take a few lessons from their streaming quality, for starters.

I think so far IGN has done a gobsmacking job. Really well done. Definitely feels "broadly accessible" too which is what they said they wanted. The graphics and everything are very cool.

Well done.

Sheth needs to spend hours upon hours of practicing controlling his units. Its painful to watch.

Yeah, he definitely took his noob lessons too much to heart. Yes, macro is probably the most important thing but it will only help you so much once players are at the same (or almost) level.


THIS! Everytime I watch his stream I can't help but cringe at the way he binds his control groups and wastes units. He relies WAY too heavily on mouse control for units.

His binds are basically... 1 2 3 and 4 for hatcheries, 5-6 for units. He never binds queens. The 5th+ hatcheries get bound to 4 as well.

In contrast, Idra puts his first two hatcheries initially on 4 and 5 (or 3 and 4 not sure), and then eventually as the game progresses and the necessity of managing larva between hatcheries decreases (when you're pretty much out of the woods as far as early aggression goes) he combines them onto 4. The rest of the hatches gets bound to 4. His units go on 1-3 and his queens from 5-onwards.

As early as 5-6 minutes into the game there is very little advantage to having each hatchery individually bound unless a push forces you to change individual rally points on your hatcheries. He wastes a lot of APM cycling between hatcheries checking larva counts and individually selecting each queen for vomits.

In contrast, he usually only uses one or two binds for his entire army. Usually on 5-6. He relies almost entirely on his mouse control to micro his infestors which fails in so many situations. If he had his infestors separately ctrl-grouped you wouldn't see as much a-move to death infestor play.

It can't stand to see him waste 4 keybinds on hatcheries for little benefit and only use two on his army. He's got an amazing understanding of the game and very solid mechanics despite the inefficiency of his play. I'm confident these odd bindings are holding him back and making him look sloppy compared to players with better bindings and similar mechanics.

(Disclaimer: what I remember about idra's keybinds may be off a bit but I think I've got the basic idea down.)

All IPL needs is TotalBiscuit and it'll be fine. I'll tune in to bronze leaguers to hear what TB has to say about the match.

Curious to see how the HD/Painuser combo works out.

I wanna give cred to IGN for a very nice production. looking at both NASL and IGN isnt even compareable. I feel they kind of follow in TSL's footsteps but hope they can improve into being a fully live tournament. In case of spoilers etc.

gg. Unlucky for Stalife, Kiwikaki makes everyone he plays look bad even though they only made a few small mistakes, but that is all Kiwikaki needs to deliver the throat cut
