Obviously I'm also looking forward to all other events and leagues, but let's be honest: There's not much on the horizon. TSL3 will be awesome of course, but it's a one-time thing. Only the NASL could come close but I'm pretty sure that (in the beginning) it won't deliver what I enjoy so much about the GSL - high level games and high level commentary. That may improve, of course, but the foreigner performances so far (Assembly, IEM etc) couldn't really compare to what we're used from the Koreans. | ||

That said I was sad this season because all the players I'm a fan of are out but I still watched because there were some amazing unknown players left in both Code A and S. | ||

If you want more styles, put more features in the game (aka more units, maybe bigger maps, maybe higher food count) if you want more shit to do, expand the game, don't rag on mechanics being efficient. Shouldn't ever have to fight with the computer about how you control your economy and units. Computers some day will be mind-interface, should we still resort to keyboards then? No, expand the game... more entertaining anyways. Starcraft games can already be determined by single units. should we add more of that? Adding new units can be good but its more than that. For example the hellion drop can gg you of your not ready for it. but if you are and kill it it doesn't even punish terran hard enough for chosing to get it. There should be a risky factor.Like if protoss rushes for dts and it fails the amount of resourses invested in to teching up for dts and having it fails set you back. It can produce interesting games but there is that risk factors. Also scouting can be really difficult early game. Should we bring back lurkers when hydras are tier 2 after lair btw hydras is so expensive what more do we pay for lurkers? 300 food food is very interesting but who knows we might see a 300 army death ball or 300 zerg push? but this is not a balance decision im no expert. im just saying Gsl is really the highest level of completion for sc2 but there is alot of tvt tvp and mirror. How interesting can that be if you watch it over and over again? So back to the tread i will still follow gsl because it is after all the highest level. Pros seem to agree that the korean ladder is the hardest by far. So new interesting builds will most likely come from the gsl and i would like to witness it when it happens. | ||

Half the time I'd tune into what was supposed to be the SC2 stream only to have 15 minutes of Counterstrike being streamed for some unknown reason. | ||

The casters/players/even the pop songs in the beginning/ the booths/ the announcers and the list goes on. Tell me one tourney that can compete in any of those areas? | ||

Can't really understand people who talk about free stuff. One whole season of GSL has been between 10-20 bucks, that's one or two pizzas. | ||

I'll watch TSL for sure but since TL in general gets off on seeing the best of the best as well they've made sure to field some of the best players from GSL. It's only a single one time tournament though so it isn't really relevant. MLG is just a weekend and is as such, also irrelevant, in comparison with GSL. We'll see how NASL turns out, but if they don't field some heavy hitters from Korea I'll probably end up watching only Idra's games. | ||

There were many All-in-Games. White-Ra: I don't like these tactics. I do love skill-based games. I do not like the way Koreans play. Why not? White-Ra: Because there aren't many good gamers. We don't see matches like the matches between European and American gamers. We do have more guys who show an interesting playstyle. The Koreans do not play with big engagements. And I don't think that this is good for the community.
