Last terrible finals is just a purely players issue. Considering production quality - NASL is not even near GSL at all.


I prefer the rather casual feel of NASL much more than the sterile atmosphere at all the GSLs. The awkward but funny interviews, the small technical issues put aside by jokes and most importantly the incredible audience made NASL a much more pleasant watching experience for me than GSL has ever done.

I feel sorry for the GSL, every other major tournament seems to find some pretty epic finals.

On a side note

Someone from playxp wrote a clever analysis of GSL Finals failure:

"In GSL, after the quarter-finals, the time given to prepare is just too much.

With so much time to prepare, players come out with perfectly prepared build/timings.

However, when such build/timing fails, because it's just too perfectly planned out, we do not get a long intense game but rather one landslide victory.

Either win game 1 and win it all, or fail game 1 and lose it all.

Unlike the Finals(-esque[better build order player winning rather than more skilled player winning]) Games, it's more of Build Order fight.

But with drastic number of games like NASL format (many tightly scheduled games), it is unusual to be a build order fight. It will be a Finals of more skilled player coming on top, solely depending on players dedication and practice and talent.

And with such practice and commitment to the game, it will only result in Good Games."

밑에 분 말대로 GSL은 4강이후 결승까지 시간이 너무 많아서

선수들이 완벽하게 짜여진 맞춤빌드를 연구해옴

그것이 실패하면 엎치락뒤치락의 결승다운 양상이 아니라 그냥 실패한쪽이 무난하게 발리는 게임이 나옴

1경기 이후 경기도 뭔가를 준비해왔는데 성공하면 무난한 승리, 실패하면 무난한 패배

결승답지 않게 빌드의 성패가 결과를 극단적으로 가르기 때문에

보는입장에선 1경기의 여부에 따라 흥망이 명확히 갈림

그러나 NASL처럼 일정이 비교적 빠듯하다면 매경기마다 뭔가를 준비하기보단

평소 연습량과 실력, 센스, 그리고 임기응변이 선수의 기량에 따라 적절히 구현되기 때문에 오히려 더욱
명경기나 나오는거 같음

Anyway congrats NASL for peaking at 82k concurrent viewers, quite a feat.

I hope they take all of the constructive criticisms to heart and deliver a far better viewer experience next season.

sooo funny :D
If you think it's too hard there are solutions other than asking for a nerf, getting better is the first that comes to mind.

As a big fan of Mc too follow in the footsteps of the man himself, congratulate puma on a good victory! :D

I'm still butthurt over Sen vs MC game 4. I wanted him to win this so bad, I think the guy really deserves a big win, not that Gentleman doesn't.

Probably the best finals I've seen. There is lots of room for improvement, but I'm gonna subscribe.

NASL feels more organic, not so corporate. the GSL is nothing but corporate.

Puma totally pwned MC, should have been 4-1, but he was unlucky.

Oh well he still won. Anyway was the best finals from sc2 i have seen.


Ehrm lol? Puma won 2 games where MC was going for this weird Pheonix strat which didn't catch any drops. He won game 4 legitimately with sick sick EMPs and getting into an awesome Position.

Both players played awesomely, and MC nearly made one of the best comebacks in Starcraft 2 history but decided to pretty much allin game >_<
Go go Alliance.

Either 5 or 6, I reckon.

But really, all of them.

This. GSL dosn't come close - unless its the "Korea vs the world" event.

GSL has great production but so so so much to learn for foreign events.
