Same drill as usual: - No caster bashing.
- Excessive tournament bashing that detracts from game discussion will be met with moderator action. Criticism is welcome, whining is not.
- In general do your best to stay on topic and discuss what we're all here for: the games.
Enjoy the games guys. |

Probably because he has better sound control in his basement and he wants to rip the guy off the board with his bare hands rather than standing there feedbacking and realizing he is being made to sound like shit.

A lot of problems, mainly audio for me, but the games and casting has been good this far. The audience is abysmal unfortunately, which is a bummer.

This really doesn't feel like a live event at all; how has NASL fallen so far from season 1 =(

Morrow's posts on TL are also often very good, saying things clearly with interesting answers. His post in his korean thread are very good.

Seems weird, If I can recall the first NASL had a good crowd, the atmosphere was great.
Just woke up to see HuK lost to yet another EuroToss :D He can't beat them!

That would have shocked the hell out of me. There is probably a good reason why so many pros say that Sage is the best Protoss in the world, a lot of it having to do with practice games.
But yeah, MorroW's ZvP has for such a long time looked really, really strong. One of the best foreigners in that matchup for sure, I still remember his practice games that HuK streamed, where he basically crushed HuK over and over and over again. Will be interesting to see where he takes his StarCraft coming up, WCG and Code A in Korea could do wonders, I guess it depends on his own motivation and what he himself aspires to.

Also, good face time with Day9 and DJWheat.
I'd definitely go if I lived in California.
Me effing too! Just meeting Day9 IRL would be enough for me, the rest would be a bonus

Did you ever decide not to go to a concert, sporting event or party because it was windy?

Was really interested to hear what Morrow's been up to (since he fell off the radar). Then DJwheat asks him "How has training in Korea helped you for this match"?
Morrow's reply was something like
"Well I don't think it helped at all, instead my confidence has been killed. Practicing against Sage is like... you pretty much lose every game. There are just so many 2-base timings protoss can do. In fact, if Mana tried any of them, I would have been pretty well prepared (because of being roflstomped by Sage's 2base timings).

That's really hard to believe. There has to be more people.

he is, hes very good in pvt and pvz, he kinda sucks in pvp.
From what i hear, hes an absolute beast in practice , so it might be nerves getting the best of him on stage, still hes a guy to look out for potientially winning an entire gsl. Sure ya he lost to forGG, but that guy is also no scrub, as he too is going threw untested waters (as in we dont actually know how good he is)
