INCONTROL wit will carry him far if he decides to be a host of the show.
someone like

DAY[9]
would be a great addition to his casting /.. brings high energy charisma can fill some dead space with nice banter and made up words on the fly.. keeping the audiencel istening .. and when he lets them in on his word it akes the m feel apart of the show
like on his day 9 dailys.


IDRA?
he did osme hosting on gsl bbefore.. and i actuaklly felt more knowledgable .. after the show then compared to a tastosis show.

imagine

LIQUIDTYLER
as a host.. hed bring a analitical non partial calm enjoyable side ( thus getting a bigger crowd into it)
that would balance out the over the top side of incontrol.

any other suggestions?
its still an issue with esports there arent many girls involved with competitive play
we could use a girl caster or reporter or something.. just for the .. wow shes hot factor.. omg she knows starcraft .. ( or learning it)
on the girl side.. a girl in a mans world if she can fit in and maybe be great at it.. ull earn a big following by more married people p couples/ women
and their kids wil lbe allowed to watch it.

Although I like the idea of more leagues any other league than the GSL will for me atleast be considered as second division opposed to GSL which always be considered as first division.

Anyways, if this is true, then good luck to NASL and hope it will succeed.

hopefully not, gsl is where the best players in the world are. And I can't see any way this is going to change in the future

most of the gsl players are carried by the inexperience of everyone else, its taken 4 gsl's to get rid of most of the bitbybitprimes. the only reason koreans get better is because they train more, simple as that, give an american league 4 seasons and then see where we're at.

Andre - "I'm expecting high level commentary and professionalism. What are your thoughts on that Geoff?"

Geoff - "Well Andre, as it's looking now, that won't be a problem. These guys have been working like horses to make this happen."

Andre - "That's right Geoff, so stayed tuned for more Starcraft here on NASL.TV, back to Scott in the studio for another SteelSeries tutorial. This time, on how to get the most from your mousepad. Don't miss it!"

Scott - "Thanks Andre, Geoff. That's right so we'll jump right in and take a look at the tutorial"

Since Jinro actually has the chance of winning GSL I don't see the point of him returning home at the moment. GSL will still be the tournament to watch where the most skilled players participate for a long time.

I don't see the point in speculating who will be the casters and who's involved? If it's so big already I'd assume they already recruited the necessary people. Pretty sure Day[9] will be involved.

My prediction for NASL:

- Monthly League tournaments involving 64 of the top NA SC2 Pro-gamers
- US$100,000 prize pool per tournament + 1000 free Big Macs (sponsored by GosuCoaching, McDonalds & Nike)
- Grand Finals in December with a winner's check of US$200,000
- All matches Broadcasted LIVE on ESPN2 replacing the National Spelling Bee
- VODS provided 24 hours after matches in 1080p for free!
- Full event coverage by Day9

WOOOOOOO!!! See this is what happens when people dont announce stuff right away, the hype just builds and builds up to the point where once the actual announcement happens, its a major disappointment

Anyway hopefully the tourney will be close to what ive envisioned above

You're missing the Daniel Negreanu part... I wonder what the deal with him is. I certainly can't call the bluff. ha. ha. ha.

How cool is this! I feel like western e-sports is on the cusp of a huge boom. I hope it lives up to all the hype. Thrilling news, indeed

I honestly think that this might be right. INcontrol's gunna be an E-sports messiah, or is the most successful troll ever.

No matter what happens, the best players will always come from Korea, thus GSL will tend to have the highest level play in SC2. However, foreigner skill is not far behind, and in many instances, foreigner games are more entertaining than Korean ones.


I dont know. Let us face the truth: there are only a few really impressive korean player in the GSL so far. For me: IMNestea, IMMVP, Fruitdealer, oGsMC. There are a lot of other good players, but nothing that "our" players like Whitera, Select, Idra, Jinro aren't able to handle.

There is a huge hype about the Korean Starcraft 2 league due to former Brood War experiences. But we can be as good as korean players, we just need the training and faith. Thats all.
Have a look at Warcraft 3. We had(have) the most skilled Warcraft 3 player in the world - Grubby, from Netherlands.

"GSL dictates the metagame"? I don't know why I bother, but it's pretty depressing how badly the meaning of that word has been twisted.
