Once you get to the post season everyone starts from scratch and you play until there's no one else to beat. The NASL regular season format is for people who like scoreboard watching. And the post season is straight up bracket style. How would you change the format? Double elimination? It's more to do with the Koreans (e.g. BoxeR) coming all this way just for them to be out of the tournament in 20 minutes. It should be Bo5 tbh, not just for the fact that it would make it fairer, butalso that there would actually be more Starcraft content to watch instead of 30 minute intros and delays. A losers bracket would suffice, I think this format is far too harsh | ||

I'm sure they came all the way to California, only to throw just so they can be comfortable....not. | ||

No but Koreans have a way of making you look like you're throwing games. Everything comes faster and more aggressive. Nani speaks to this when he comments on sorry state of foreign scene. | ||

Was thinking more in the way of their team/sponsers not wanting to be affiliated with the fiasco and therefore pulling their players out. | ||

You just have to take credits away from Koreans. Morrow off-race was an insult to his opponent to begin with and he made a fool out of himself. Sure, they flew all the way here to make themselves looking dumb. | ||

MLG delivered. NASL does not. The end. | ||

(okay, Select is a Korean as well, but he trains outside of Korea and hence represents the non-Korean professional scene, that's what matters to me) Select talks with a Korean accent, knows Korean, and obviously still is a citizen of Korea. Americans definitely do not identify themselves with Select based on appearance, they prefer Sheth. | ||

While there is an ongoing argument about how Select should be considered in terms of Korean or foreigner; i would say there is a very strong argument for him to be considered very very very different to the Koreans in terms of SC2. Anyway - WOW that is a lot of Koreans and a lot of 2:0 victories! I really was hoping Sheth's ZvP would get him through - but oh well  Some really good players around!

The fact that you actually engaged your brain and "pondered" and still came up with this terrible conclusion is pretty funny. They travelled a really long way and there is a ton of money on the line. | ||
