Wow, I think the results might have been the best possible outcome for NASL as far as viewership and fandoms go.

Very impressive wins.

So stoked to see these 8 players in Toronto, and also NASL has improved massively since they first started out. Kudos to them! :D

Calling it now, HuK will win this. He will most likely land all PvPs and the only non-Protoss I see him maybe playing is Ret (though Puzzle will probably win) and even then HuK usually does well against Ret. The only thing I see stopping him is if Puma the NASL king lives up to his NASL legacy and takes down MC and then Hero, in that case HuK would stand no chance in the final.

Even if he does get all PvPs his chances are quite slim...He lost to MC the last 2 times they played and MC has looked much much better all year. I would favor Puzzle and Alicia too.

If TT1 won over Puzzle and Sen won over Alicia, the top 8 would've been balls to the walls fantastic.

I think PvP wise Alicia might end up being the toughest for HuK, though Puzzle's PvP is looking a bit better recently. MC barely beat him the past 2 times they played and this will be bo5 and not bo3. Plus HuK has home court advantage. If Hero is playing well then he will have the best PvP there but HuK usually does really well against Hero in PvP.

Yup, practically pvp'd his way through, only losing to Seed.

Like I said, if he plays well and not herpderp like he did against Mana or something like that.

K, but more often than not Hero will "herpderp", especially in LANs. Sure he can have a good day in the matchup like any good toss, but I don't think he stands out above the other protoss at the finals in PvP.

RO4 Code S and Dreamhack win disagree with your "more often than not". Hero has his bad moments but he has more than enough good moments to make up for those. None of the Protoss truly standout in PvP in these NASL finals anyway, but I think HuK and Hero are likely the best there at PvP, if only by a small margin.

I can't believe Huk made it. Great job! I was watching the first two games against Ganzi and it looked like he was going to be crushed. I can't believe he made the comeback!

The games were very good.

The fact that the "spoiler-free" webpage is not spoiler-free, and neither is the YouTube page, is enough to not pay for subscription again. Seriously, this has been said before - NASL, please fix your page, and make a spoiler-free version roughly the way TSL3 was. At least for playoffs, but honestly - even something as simple as linking only Game 1 and having links (with anti-spoilers) to games 2+ would be just as good. This is trivial, and yet makes a big difference to people that can't watch your live streams.

But the games were awesome. This is an excellent league; I've followed it since the very beginning, and in general find that it's a great breath of fresh air to esports to have a regular season, as opposed to only tournament formats. But the webpage needs to be made better. Or, at least for me (and several people I know), there will not be resubscriptions.

P.S. If there is a functional way to watch the games from either the regular season and/or the playoff without spoilers - please let me know, and I apologize for what I said above. I looked and couldn't find any. The spoiler switch at the top does not work. (And in fact is actually ambiguous - is spoiler-free mode "on" when the switch is OVER the "on" position, or when "on" is visible?)
