Wow do you really not understand your own question? Im guessing you are asking is it a 1v1 tournament with less prize money and less high known players.

The answer is no one knows, that's why there is a ticker on the webpage.

Well it's like the gsl but accessible for american players, This means that if theres a tournament the size of the gsl in america, american teams will have a bigger incentive to get better as the prize pools and hopefully sponsorships should increase, you'll start to see some team houses and the skill of north american players will most likely increase a shit load. Making this amazingly good, why would you not get excited? sc2 is getting big outside of korea.

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


Amen, best to just wait till the big day..Lets be pumped that Jinro and Idra are playing for a huge chunk of change, and the announcement is like the prize in the cracker jack box....do those still exist?

I don't quite understand why people have been trying to figure out what his announcement is. It's not going to be long till they announce it anyways. It's better as a surprise. Feels like there a lot of kids here who try to sneak around at night trying to figure out what their parent bought them for Christmas. I'm really looking forward to it but I haven't taken much thought into what it actually is.

If they want to use Husky they should use him as an interviewer and content creator.

Plus a league in NA will be more foreigner friendly as the GSL since english is spoken in the whole world. Foreigners in Kor mostly can't communicate with the people they meet in their everyday life. It will be much easier for EU players to go to NASL.

It is quite a good timing too, I think. In my understanding SC2 isn't that big in SK right now. In my opinion the 'leading' place of sports is always to a very big part determined by the prize money. If NASL catches on quite quickly I see a very good possibility that the prize money in the NA tournaments (not only NASL) will soon be higher than the ones payed for SC2 tournaments in SK and thus 'steal' away the focus.

All in all it seems like to me like: Now, or never. It should be a good time and I feel quite optimistic about it.

P.S.: If the announcement is something else (which I judge very unlikely by now): TL + EG should *really* start working on a NASL... But as I said, I have almost no doubts that this is what will be announced.

I am curious to see their sponsors, if they are big name/well known corporations, this will be very big.

seeing how successful sc2 is in the west and globally, and how (relatively) unsuccessful it is in S.Korea, I wonder if we'll start seeing some of the Korean players coming over here to take a shot at the bigger tourny pool. With the Liquid/oGs arrangement I can't see why not, and that would be siiiick.

edit: I think this will be better than gsl, much much better, because WE will be the primary audience, not the secondary audience like the korean GSL. Not to mention tha tgame is just BIGGER out here, means a larger audience and more competition, and hopefully more MONIES.

and YUCK to whoever wanted husky commentating, husky is the WORST, HD is tolerable... but day9/inc/other gosu coaches would be much better commentators....

High level players make the best commentators.
love you long time
