i know this is a kind off stupid reason for not liking the NASL, but i like when theres one superior super league with all the best players. as a hockey fan i really love it that the NHL is the league to follow these days, compared to a few decades ago when the great players of the world were scattered between america and europe.

the GSL was this superior league with all the great players, with more and more foreigners being channeled in with the new code a-system, and i was already getting excited by seeing where this was heading in a few months..

now, most of the great koreans will be in korea, most great americans in NA and europeans in europe.. sure, there will be world championships and stuff like that, but there will only be a few battles and not real proof of whos the best.

Watching NHL doesn't deter you from watching Olympic hockey or World Championship or World Juniors right? NHL vs international hockey is a good analogy for GSL vs the potential league.

Maybe they will be GSL players maybe there won't. But this new league is definitely gonna be huge, and has great potentials. And before EPS goes global, this is gonna be THE international starleague.



I think one thing your overlooking is that most people from NA watch the GSL because thats about all there is, other than smaller tournaments. If there is going to be a NASL I am pretty sure you will see a lot of people choosing to watch that over the GSL.

This is similar to choosing a team in any sport. You are more than likely just going to watch because YOUR team is playing You might still watch it when other teams are playing just because you like the sport, but you will almost always watch when your team is playing. So if there is a NASL, most people will watch that over GSL in NA because they are closer to those players.

Lettuce be reality, Team Liquid being in S.Korea isn't really "financially" viable unless you are finishing high in Code S consistantly.

Pack your bags boys, Evac is on the way.

I'm confident Liquid would dominate the NASL.

Timezones will obviously play a huge factor as well.

i think we heard a while back that daniel negranu was involved in this somehow and also if fnatic is involved that would make EG & Fnatic, both with very deep pockets. so this could potentially be pretty big because those 3 definitely have a lot of money

Poker and Starcraft are pretty close

Even liquid's own RasZi is a wellknown poker player!

This has me psyched, the idea of something cool, possibly similar or someday greater than what GSL is now... In North America... Going Live at times that don't require me to be completely dedicated. Being able to approach and show this to friends without looking insane...

Keep talking.
I'm interested.

Great news, but wasn't this all kind of obvious from the get go once incontrol stated it wouldn't have to do with EG? Not surprised at all, really.

No offense to "RasZi" but I'm pretty sure there are more well known Starcraft-Poker references.

Depending on sponsors and prize money ... yes

Or would you rather get payed $200 every 2 months for being in Code A.

Team Liquid and Root fighting in NASL! I really can't wait and hope this is the big announcement.
