I hope NA does not stand for North America, it wouldn't make much sense given not only NA players will be involved. Last I checked Jinro was a Swede.


You cannot host a big tournament only with NA players. This will include players from Europe and Asia as well.
Therefore the name NASL is completly retarded

Something like ISL (International Starcraft League) would be appropriated

The StarCraft league will need commentators, Day9 + DJWheat/Chill anyone?

i would think NASL would be Incontrol + Gretorp but wouldn't Incontrol want to actually play in the tournament?


Why would he do that?

While he's definately a decent player, right up there with Artosis, he never won or got top 3 in any event that's worth mentioning. As a commentator / coach though he's a funny guy and brings insight into the game that many commentators can't because they don't play at a high level, so the choice should be obvious.

day9 could be a guest commentator, like for the monthly finals and so on
so long as they dont get something like husky, i think it would be ok

unfortunately someone like husky and hd would bring in more people than day9, so don't rule it out.


gotta get day 9 casting this!!


God if Husky and HD cast this I will never watch it. Jesus. I give props to HD for being a decent player but Husky talks about about SC2 like we're all little children. Why can't he talk to us like we have some measure of intelligence? Day9 and tastosis can explain simple things without all the googoo gahgah.


Probably because there are little children aged 12-15 who watches him? Or people who never play any RTS or competitive games before?

Esports can only happen if new generation embraces it.



Fine. But at least pick a caster that understands the game and can make insightful observations. If you've played the game before, you lose almost nothing from muting Husky's casts when watching.

We're getting trolled. :p
Let's cool down the hype and wait for the actual announcement!
If NASL is real though i'll be mighty impressed. I think the announcement will be something like a big tournament with a huge prize pool. Either way i'll be happy

I think people are going over board with the "TV" part.

It's just the trend that Day9 started.

There is no indication that this will be on national TV.

No it's a trend GLHF.TV started.

No, it's a "trend" that justin.tv started

No, it's a "trend" that the Tuvalu Islands started...

On another note : obviously the NASL will also include Korean participation. The fact that it will be based in California is to reduce the travel time/expenses for them .

As I told people yesterday on Incontrol's stream : I figured it out guys!

This is the first guess I've seen that is completely plausible, and is actually backed up by some evidence. I think we got a winner people!
