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.

does anyone have any clue why such a huge tournament has so few spectators?


It's because of how the NASL's season went. The delayed start, all of (well, almost all...) of the Koreans pulling out, matches being played well in advance, etc.. It created less hype around the tournmaent. Also, while NASL was going on, there were also other major tournaments taking place every weekend that continued to draw more attention because of their very nature. Because of this, very little attention was paid to the NASL. It had/s its problems, but it has largely improved upon them. But, at this point, their product is simply not hot anymore.

I'm beginning to wonder if we will even see a season 3. There just isn't enough interest in the NASL. Emberassing numbers throughout the season (honestly there are player streams that tripled the number of viewers during the regular season) and by the looks of things the live event is even worse. There are 25k watching now. SOTG draws nearly that many and there aren't even any games played.

Dreamhack Winter, Apollo and Tasteless casting continously for 14hrs while being sick. NASL grand finals - wait 9 hours, cast two games. I have to question how exciting it is for the casters to cast about 3-4 games during the entire weekend :/

How does a tournament with a $100,000 prize pool and well known players and casters only attract a live crowd of 20 people?

Yeah still wondering about that.. Tweet the world with a 'free entrance' action or something. They still got 25k viewers onstream, make it more enjoyable for the bigger audience?



It's like a Comedy Club. It's better to give away free tickets to play to an empty crowd. At least you'd be able to satisfy the sponsors, hopefully sell some concessions/merchandise, etc.



Honestly, I think the problem, with NASL as a whole may simply be a lack of business acumen. For example, PR 101 is that when you're trying to promote something you make sure that the venue/arrangements are too small/little for the crowd you expect. You do the same thing in politics: when you're on the campaign trail, every stop should be a little too small to actually support the event. That way you create the perception of being more popular than you are. Of course, this is just one item, and certainly I can't imagine the NASL folks expected anything like this small a turnout. That said, everybody knows they're trying to really "save" NASL and to demonstrate that it should exist. It seems like even once they knew this wasn't going well they just decided to carry on and hope for the best without attempting to do anything. I think my point is just that even in bad circumstances, there are things to be done which more seasoned business minded folks would keep in mind, and this may be a manifestation of a generally poor business sense which is mucking the whole operation up.


At the end of the day ... something about the whole tournament is 'off'. I really appreciate and respect what they are trying to contribute to the community, but everything points to poor management and weak leadership.


Yeah sad part is they really tried.


I still judge them harshly though because it's nobody's fault but theirs that they're failing... instead of taking all the criticism from Season 1 seriously they've just kept up the whole charade whilst InControl has kept telling us that everything is great and nothing is bad with the NASL.

They've had ample time to improve and make things right yet still we have really bad audio and production value.

Still great that they're bringing out so many casters but for only having 1 stream on it just seems like overkill... why not spend the money spent on flying in 11 casters on koreans instead?

Nope...
