If my time zone conversions are right, the MLG Columbus championship match was one hour earlier (7PM EDT) than the NASL finals match will be (5PM PDT). Hardly a difference worth being called appropriate while condemning NASL's. | ||

So they still got the numbers even if they weren't live and they didn't have a day with only 2 games scheduled for terrible times  . | ||

Yeah  It's the first major tourney for which I missed games due to the schedule. Never missed an MLG match. The tourney start at european prime time (around 8pm) but ends at like 7am TT | ||

I have to work and I'll still watch it, but I haven't watched the later games on day 1 or 2, way too late. I'll sleep 2 hours ahead of schedule so I can squeeze in the finals match. | ||

I don't know, the time when Polt played HuK, it looked really close to me and there were times, where HuK could have taken it. If MC doesn't go with some really greedy FE or overboard with his "IMBA Stargate" and Puma doesn't all in him, he should win, although it should be pretty close. Too bad it starts at 2AM, which means I will probably not be able to watch it. Long breaks at a time like that are killing me. | ||

Scheduling is the issue. It's the massive amounts of fluff for seemingly no reason which people are complaining about. They could remove the fluff and get a good time instead they artificially creating a bad time by adding fluff. MLG just has so many games it's impossible for them to schedule it at a good time so they make up by having the rebroadcast. They don't have plenty of time but choose to make bad time by adding fluff | ||

The schedule is shit - yes, same as yesterday. Opening ceremony and musical acts - yes, known for fucking weeks now and voluntary. shitty times for europeans - better than yesterday and the day before. sleep ahead of schedule during the oc and music and you're fresh for the games 30 minute intro videos - get a watch, please. they're 5-7 minutes max. You watched the games at 6AM and 8AM but won't watch the game at 2AM? Today it's sunday. I have work tomorrow. | ||

So don't tune in until the matches are scheduled to start? It's not that hard to do. You aren't forced to watch every second of NASL. Try doing something else maybe? | ||

The problem is, MC is very confident and has started to play standard 1 gate FE builds. PuMa can exploit that very easily if he watches any replays of MC in last few weeks even. And everybody knows about the Stargate build now and i think PuMa's crisis management can handle it. I think MC is afraid of what you are, a very early allin of sorts off of 1 or 2 base, because it will be difficult for MC to stop those with his different PvT builds. But MC Fiiiiggghting!!!! | ||
