Anyway NASL has been ok so far, not great, just ok. People expected to advance did. Tastosis have been awesome, Gretorp and Incontrol will do, but need to do better. Looking forward to the finals!

Considering there's only 1 spot from the open tournament I doubt that's a viable strategy. You have to take into considering the flight cost + hotel stay + food. And even if you manage to win the open tournament you'd have to go against the best 15 leaguers, unless you make it to the quaterfinals you'll be earning practically nothing.
And to give you an idea of how tough the open tournament was, Puma had to go through Dimaga, Nightend, Clide, and Alive. Then in the finals tournament Puma had to go through Ret, Squirtle, and July to get to the grand finals.
To me it sounds more like the open tournament would be the last resort.

Why is there an hour scheduled for a Musical Act and Entertainment? What the hell. No one is watching NASL for music. We're here to watch SC2.
This whole weekend has had the stench of some leftovers from GSL. Player intro vids ... which have gone stale and now last 30 mins each. Musical acts before the finals ... which now last an hour and won't include cute Kpop ass. There's no need to imitate the Koreans, especially if you're going to do it wrong.
An hour long opening ceremony... This isn't the olympics. An hour break in the middle of the schedule for ... absolutely no reason? Why?! This just seems like deliberate time wasting to ensure that only NA viewers can tune in. The final (if on time, which isn't guaranteed) only starts at 2AM here. If all the planned events lasted reasonable amounts of time the final could easily start at 11PM for EU. The only explanation I can think of is that they're trying to get more VOD sales from Euros, but they have to know that, that isn't going to happen. It's overpriced.
I am dumbfounded.

He dominated first game. Lost to a 7 gate allin on Crevasse with Hallucination as bait (warppism at his expo) as well as dropping the base of Squirtle so he didnt have enough to defend it.
Game 3 he got dt rushed and had 14 Scvs against 30+ Probes and still won. I'd say the games don't say that much.

Yea totally. I don't want anyone not white representing me in this tournament, even if they were American citizens. It doesn't matter if Sen has been the pride of the foreigner scene for years now and has shown countless times that competitive play can exist outside of Korea. As far as I'm concerned, If you're yellow you might as well be a dirty Korean, am I right?

You have to take into considering the flight cost + hotel stay + food, and you might not even win the open tournament as it was a Bo1 and anything can happen in those.

All the rounds were bo3 with a bo5 finals ..

Due to the varying difficulty of the different groups, not all the best players made it to the playoffs

errrr yes..
MC will win it all. All of you puma followers know it. Hes just too strong!

Wow, the schedule has been ridiculous all weekend long.
|
lol people still saying MC is an alliner. He's played macro games almost every time, it's too much if anything. Puma has done more allins (but not alot either).

And here I thought that the finals will air in a timely manner. Man, and you even pushed the event back by one hour and then by an hour and a half of musical acts. It's like Friday all over again.
