Holy moly smackamoly! I enver qq:ed this much before but .. What is going on? I thought this was some sort of serious production but this is like made in a garage or something.

Giving this one more game, but if shit is not fixed, I'm out.

Everyone bitching about NASL

40000 viewers.

I'm watching it because I have a ticket and I can't go back to sleep and I'm just shaking my head at the train wreck it is. Now that the finals has come, I can personally say it's the biggest waste of $25 I've ever made. Not gonna watch it next season.

I feel ripped off. And you all should also.

It all comes down to the hype. Without the hype this would be an AWESOME tournament. Look at that ridicilous line up. But everyone is expecting a perfect production and they just can't give you that.

Guys, focus. The line up is crazy good. That is A-W-E-S-O-M-E. If you want, mute everything else and just watch the games, it will still be an freakin great tournament for you.

But please, stop the hate, it's not helping, not at all.

This is just embarrassing. We need to tar and feather the NASL tech crew.

How else can you ensure the most jarring cut away and attrocious sound balancing known to man!

I wonder how long it will actually take between matches.

Only 1-2 hours im assuming!

I don't mind making mistakes here and there. But there are 100k bucks on the line and even some very simple things do not work.

I also don't get the format. why does the loser not get to choose a map?

And even though I am not biased towards Ret, playing for 9 weeks in a league and dominating your division just for 500€ seems like a bad joke to me... Puma has already won a 1000€ just going through the open bracket and winning a best of 3. You can at least pay the flight with that amount of money.

Getting #1 in the group play means you will face the winner of the open brackets and face the strongest player not invited = the strongest player overall since NASL invites was .. strange.
Ret foolishly didnt loose enough games.

Who the heck is in charge? This whole production seems like its a bandof merry amatures doing their own thing. Whoever is in charge needs to step it up and actually be a leader. I mean, the translator needs to be right next to Puma, not 5 feet away.

If the format is going to be single elimination, the series should atleast be bo5 or bo7. Going out that way after being no1 in the entire league standings is pretty sad.

NASL's setup is just so incredibly terrible. To have the open bracket winner play against the 1st seeded player in the first round is absurd, and they were told this repeatedly. Then to top it off, it's in a BO3 single elimination format? You can't come up with anything worse than this.

Dudes, youre being too hard. Let´s be honest here, it´s not the greatest event ever, a lot of things are pretty shitty but it´s NOT gonna "kill E-sports" and it´s a lot (a lot) better than for instance MLG Dallas. Feels like people in this thread have stopped enjoying the event and started just looking for errors in it to post and think they look baller on the internet.

Im not saying it´s an amazing event, just that it´s not as bad as you´re painting it to be.

People are used to a higher form of quality when they watch events.

Thus they expect it or better from every event.

Okay, I dont usualy jump on the bandonwagon but......

This is KILLING esports

I really expected better quality of sound, observer, interview style. Did they not practice at all with 2 random players with a teststream and ask for commentary.
