I really liked Prodig's idea of rotating out 'bad' ladder maps like Kulas, BS, DO for more custom maps in tournament play. I'd much rather see play on a variety of maps instead of Steppes, LT and Metal.

I left a comment on uStream but got truncated

on ep #9:

I think day9 overlaps Apollo about the same amount. They're both dominant, and maybe not good as duo caster. However, when not overlapping each others casting, they're both pretty great. If that's Apollo's first tournament cast, that's a great job.

IMO the better casting duo should be one doing analyst and the other covering play-by-play.

About the Kespa not working together with foreign broadcasters, it's because their broadcasting rights are limited to Korea only. They don't have the rights to broadcast to foreign countries. This is pretty normal in broadcasting tv shows and all. Maybe not very obvious in America, but even in Canada we cannot watch some Youtube videos or videos posted on American tv channels' websites due to broadcasting deals.

But still, Kespa shouldn't have interrupted this one, since it's SC2, not Broodwar

I was impressed with just how much Apollo saw. He seemed to have great awareness of what is being built, where it's being built and what it means. I thought the two worked out fairly well together even if Day9 seemed completely bored everytime Apollo talked.

Small comment on #9

Map "Nebraska plains" will still be Terran favored, because they have no "roadblocks" and the speeding Hells Angels of Terran (Hellions) will run over everything and flame the whole Zerg brood.

Apart from this little grain of salt it was an awesome show.

Also on the topic of "GG" I would like to point out the definition of "gosu" in Liquipedia. It includes superior manner in the definition, but its mostly used for playing skill only. That is a sad thing, because politeness is a lost in todays culture already.

KeSPA has no broadcasting rights for Starcraft in any country.

If you saw TLO vs Nada Day9 and Apollo were much better and seemed to bounce off each other more and Day9 barely ever talked over him. They are a good team imo, they were just neede practice.
