EDIT TEAM TROLLING WTFFFFF I find it kind of funny that "like Idra" is apparently Gretorp's way of saying "bad" I don't know, I took to mean that Ret is really good, but just can't seem to bring everything together and get wins. It means he played too passively. If Ret macros up "Wow Ret you can't passively let protoss get a deathball" If Ret pressure's midgame "Wow Ret what are you thinking you can't attack into forcefields" If Ret puts early pressure "Wow Ret why are you cheesing, play on your strengths" That's like all I read in these LR threads to zergs recently Clearly the answer is for zergs is to engage the main army of protoss while simultaneously dropping banes in the main and nydusing the protoss expo and flanking the deathball with zerglings.
its a good thing that zerg can make so many units at once hu?

One way to beat an opponent is to just go kill them. Seems to work.

Stalife's push was just... so weird. Why Hellions and lots of Marines? Seems like a really flaky build to me, tbh. Virtually banking on him not having Banelings or you are going to almost straight-out lose.

Why didn't they edit that nonsense out? Thats probably the WORST thing that could've happened to them at this point in time. Everyone has been throwing around claims that there is an air of unprofessionalism going on. Now you've got caster's saying "Dude Ret sucked" on air.
Absolutely not the right thing for NASL right now.
Artosis says players sucked intentionally on air all the time and no one is tossing the same complaint at GSL. I think Gretorp's casting would benefit from being a little more honest with his opinions of how the game is going (although obviously maybe with more carefully chosen words).

Stalife played so bad in game 1....

I guess I shouldn't complain, but I'm watching for free on the stream and I've seen no ads. No addblocker of any kind installed. Am I unintentionally cheating somehow?

Machine played very well, solid game, I think that timing push was a little too ambitious.

Gretorp was trolling us. It was a set up.

True 
Guess you don't need to do much skill when your opponent leaves his base wide open.

I love how adds block out all of the analysis between games, other than that tonight has been pretty good. Comentary has gotten great, i wish they stuck to inc, gretorp and diggity though just because khaldor's mic<good

ZOMG, Machine is hacking!

You would think that hearing and seeing the same starbucks commercial 50 times would get old but i love it every single time it comes on just a little bit more each time. Apparently, the broadcaster gets money from the commercials based on how many viewers are watching. By throwing down 3 commercials, NASL is in essence getting 3 times the income per commercial break. (Or so I've heard). 8:20 68 to 62 Machine to Stalife.
Try our new Herb Cheese Soffatelli, inspired by our cooking school in Tuscany! Olive Garden, when you're here you're family!
Aw shit I think it's working on me.

boooooring ... i think today is the last time i watched NASL

I really should have screen shotted Idra's BM when he was telling some random Protoss on ladder how much more skill is needed by Idra to beat him.
Ahem...

I liked it. I'd rather these guys say what they actually think instead of always WOW THAT WAS AMAZING PLAY!!!

Gretorp's chilled out commentary and analysis is really nice actually.

Artosis says BAD players who play BADLY suck.
Ret and idra are not bad zergs, they are the some of the best, there is a difference.

A little note : I never found Gretorp was bad. He was just annoying because his mic wasn't compressed so you had to change the volume of the stream non stop. But today he does a really good job (and incontrol too)
