um.. so you consider HuK Korean?


Actually even korean netizens consider Huk to be a korean gamer so yes I think its fair to say so.

Compare NASL with MLG's first try. Seriously its not even close, i still remember the 2 hour breaks between EVERY game or how we had to watch replays of a live event. MLG's 2nd try was just as bad with us watching freaking eagles over SC2 matches and some moose tripping over the cables every half hour.



ye at least we're able to watch the games...cough MLG Dallas. I understand the 1 hour break and it wouldn't be bad if it wasn't for the retardedly long and unnecessary player intros. That's really the only big issue I've had with this so far. It seems like an idea that sounded awesome when thinking it up but when actually implemented its just painful to watch.

-boring games that are all one sided (ive only seen squirtle/sheth, mon/hasuobs/, ret/puma, no morrow/july)
-quality of the stream isnt that great. i know i could pay for a better quality, but look at the other events, mlg, dream hack, homestory, from what i remember im pretty sure they were all atleast 480p when they were free
-brb 2 5 min games with an hour break until the next series
-breaks in between games are just way too long
-bo3 is just plain stupid for a final 16. should be bo5, and finals bo7.


nothing wrong with the casting though everyones doing a great job in terms of casting.

Did NASL pay for their flights?

also yeah translator chick is cute




No they didn't. That was one reason why Strelok was unable to get his Visa in time... He couldn't secure the funds fast enough



Um.. yeah they all got a $500 dollar stipend, plus the opportunity to play for very good money. The upside of single elimination is that a weaker player COULD have knocked out a better player and if you did that 2 rounds in a row thats $5000, vs. Double Elimination where you'd have to win much more.

There are 2 sides to everything.

Also, Strelok knew the deal when he signed up... his own fault if he couldn't have afforded to make it work. But I never heard that the money part was the problem for him though, I think you just made that up.


Money greases all wheels, from my experience with visa issues. But no, I don't think that was the issue, since obviously normal people from Ukraine are able to get a timely visa.

Not to mention, White-Ra and Dimaga can't both be that much more baller-er than Strelok when it comes to paying for travel arrangements.

HuK considers HuK Korean, I do to. He refers to himself as having "Korean training" in the sense that he plays like a Korean player now. So essentially his online playstyle and persona is of a Korean, even though he may not be.

Select is the opposite. His online playstyle and persona is that of a North American, even though he may not be.

Why don't people get it rofl.

My bet is that Sen is going to win. Zenio is good but in this I honestly think Zenio is better.

You think he's good but also better then himself.. what an insane guy.


sen will win, white ra get motivated and beat select ( select is korean -_- ), drkforce will beat alive as well and mc and boxer kill each other

That is untrue. He stated he filed for the VISA the day after he signed up. The NASL organizers pulled congressional connections to try and pressure the embassy to speed things up, but the most they could do was literally a day too late.

That's exactly how I feel watching these games. It seems like the foreigners are still using builds from months ago, and their overall style is so predictable and passive that the Korean players can do basically whatever they want and win, e.g., Moon's 150 banelings.


"This has been a tournament that tells you how much SC2 evolved. The foreigners are really just living Fossils"

Yeah, its harsh but kinda true. I mean I haven't seen a Protoss going Colossi in the GSL in a while and that style is still pretty popular here. God, I just don't know what to say...
