Haha, that nexus cancel may have worked a bit better if Ret actually scouted the nexus. He had an overseer right on top of it and saw it getting cancelled as well. Not until it was almost done, he was right above it like 10 seconds before the cancel. The casters even pointed out Ret hadn't seen it and was preparing for a two base all-in.
What are you talking about? Ret took a fourth and an infestation pit... He wasn't preparing for an all in at all.

People were complaining they were too loud, then they lowered them way too low and now people are complaining about that.

Is this guy serious? You like the random ass yelling whenever someone starts a combo, drops a combo, dashes forward....wait, they start yelling FOR ANYTHING. Nothing important happens and they yell! Its the worst crowd ever. Sir, you just exposed your ignorance of fighting games. Consider yourself shamed. Well maybe if the commentators were to say something actually relevent during a match other than "HERE WE GO!" when a combo starts or "AWWW!" when a combo is dropped, then I might be able to learn. There is no intellegence in their play by play. Some commentators do a great job, and honestly if they started doing top level commentary you wouldn't understand anything. Too much technical stuff.
The only game that I saw with actual commentary was SFIV. The other two games I watch, KoF and MvC3, were just people yelling.

NASL wouldn't be NASL without the NASL sound guy.
I'm doing foley, clanging beer bottles together and making lightsaber noises.

I respect some games, A LOT of skill involved in them and Daigo is a hero, but that guetto approach from the community is really annoying, fo sho fo sho meh.

He was making pure units on low drone count. A 300 mineral hatchery and the infestation pit are not that important, he apparently knew he could hold it off while being that greedy in the first place. If you want to consider two drones, 300 minerals, and whatever the cost of the infestation pit (probably 3 roaches or so + some gas) is "greedy".

anyone in this thread who isn't proud of their nerd status has serious identity issues.
the definition of nerd i'm using isnt the one that has to due with playing video games, being interested in technology, stuff like that. of course i fit all those descriptions.... when i threw out the word "nerdy" in realtion to sc2 events i was referring to the social awkwardness of the atmospheres of the events

Damn, and I thought double Fleet Beacon was the new PvZ metagame.
