Considering how epic the NASL finals were, I really wonder why the GSL always has terrible finals.


I think it has something to do with the amount of time GSL players have before their finals. NASL only completed the semi-finals last night and had the finals right away the next morning, so there wasn't a lot of time to prepare and the players had to go with what they were comfortable with.

With the GSL you have a week to prepare against the other persons race, on every single map. People can iron out all of their strategies and get really comfortable with the maps, maybe even find something new/exploitable to try out on the other player. That preparation comes with shorter games I think as the strategies are just so streamlined at that point that its do or die in most cases.

If the NASL had the same production quality as GSL of MLG...it would would be the greatest SC2 event ever


Pretty much, for all the great production quality the GSL provides, they sort of get dicked over with really weak games, I think it has to do with the long breaks between matches, players just come up with very specific timing attacks and clever cheeses to knock out opponents.

While events like the NASL have lots of fumbles in quality and production, for some reason they get blessed with amazing games.

How dare you put Lindsey as a con!

edit: she's excellent!


imo the production got alot better on day 2, the stream quality wasnt that bad?? and lindsey got better on day 3. Audio pains definitly sucked but they fixed most of their problems relatively quickly. Looking forward to season 2, hopefully we get the same caliber of games cause that was so good *_*.

I think my 1st SC2 experience can be summed up in one word... "excellent" (of course) hehe
(from her facebook page)

Let's not forget her contribution to the success of NASL!

Great finals!!! GG

I have to laugh at people complaining about the final song.

Because all SC2 players are professional rap artists / singers

Nope, take what you've got it's still pretty damn good.


I just don't like comments that are just 2 cent complaints without any constructive criticism. For 2 SC2 enthusiasts with no previous live stage experience, in combination with the sound issues over the past 3 days, it was a border line miracle it worked as well as it did.


It was, and to not freeze in front of so many people and maintain your voice and not forget the lyrics and be able to not sound fucking horrible. Murphy's law was prowling elsewhere for those 5 minutes.

Does anyone know if there will be a way to watch VODS of the finals weekend without buying the full 25 dollar (I think) season pass? I have zero interest in watching the regular season but it seems like there were some good games this weekend.
I could spend a while with that smile

Well, more dedication from foreigners would be a good start. I mean the talent pool has got to immense in Europe and North America. And I haven't even mentioned china and Japan yet.

When SC2 gets bigger i expect prodigies to come up from all over the planet.

Epic final series saved the NASL. These 7 games were worth all of the pain and suffering over the weekend.

First thing NASL needs to do is fire that sound guy, even up to the very end there was sound issues

GG NASL, you had problems in day 1 almost enough for me to turn you off. You picked up your game on day 2, and day 3 the 3rd place match and the finals were just EPIC. Thank you for the matches and thank you Puma and MC, the finals in particular being one of the best series I have seen in the few months since I started watching SC2 streams and tournies, I didn't care who won my jaw was just on the ground.

Also would like to thank TotalBiscuit for getting me into watching this great eSport, never really watched before until I caught his stream and since then NASL, IPL, MLG, Dreamhack, Homestory Cup, Shoutcraft and a lot of other tournaments, I have watched as many of the matches as I could.

And finally thank you Team Liquid for putting up this site to make it easy for noobs like me to learn about the game and find great matches and streams to watch. GG all.

I never thought it was going to be good, I was proved wrong. I enjoyed the finals so much. From now on I'm a Puma fan, he played brilliantly and showed us all that Terran can beat MC. :D
I am definitely buying a season 2 pass.


Showed that Terran can beat MC? I think you must have missed Bomber and Polt's matches with MC before =p PvT is clearly MC's weakest matchup, but as you can see, its still friggin' beastly o_O


It's almost every protos worst matchup, ghosts man, those ghosts... terrans finally discovered them and it shows.
