I'm watching the NASLTL Qualifier with LZGamer and Catz casting, and there's a lot here that could use some improvement. LZGamer and Catz aren't very interesting or engaging with their casting right now (first time I've watched them, so I don't know if they're just having an off day), the games themselves are boring (nothing NASL can do about it, I know), and there was a stretch of time there where they were having technical problems with getting Catz synced up with LZGamer on skype and battle.net, and the whole thing was broadcast live, and the audience had to sit through watching Catz get tech support. The stage that LZGamer is on looks great and professional, but it's juxtaposed with Catz being in his bedroom with a Pizza Hut box on his bed.
I know NASL is doing its best with a limited budget, but production mishaps like these makes it hard to take it seriously as a professional esports league.
Last year we got to see how much the NASL grew and improved, and it was a blast. Here's to hoping they continue to improve and figure out good ways to avoid production pitfalls.

Right now, it is Xeris and Catz casting. Neither are likely to be main casters for the team league or the regular season (though I don't wanna speak for NASL). I've been watching the whole thing and I really think you keep getting names mixed up because nothing you say is ringing a bell.
This is just a qualifier and it's all being cast live. Perhaps your expectations are too lofty.

Did I just see that right?

The real travesty is that CatZ actually paid for food from Pizza Hut. That shit is nasty.
|
That Pizz Hut box on the bed is actually awesome! Pizza Hut should pay for that product placement

You do realize this is just a qualifying tournament? Most major organizations don't stream them, much less find commentators for them. Quit crying.

Why is this guy calling RoXKis "RoX" did i missed somethin i thougt they are called RoXKis since the good old BW days...

Who is on the nightmares lineup? They beat mTw (though they were obviously lacking their ace). That means someone there is good enough to beat TT1.

Dimaga was the ace too, according to TT1's tweet.

this casting is kind of lack luster tbh, but oh well.

Wow, now they beat VVV. The team they're gonna face is one I haven't heard of, so they could very well go through to the semifinals. Link to Nightmares roster: http://teamnmx.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=64&Itemid=148 I've never heard of any of these people. Exciting!

It's the right team, unless there's another SC2 team named Nightmares I don't know about. Anyway, go team Light tomorrow! Excited, as they will probably be able to use kawaii.

I can't imagine there are other teams going by the name Nightmares that can beat the teams they've beaten... I'm not 100%, but unless someone says otherwise, I'm going to go by that.
