Naaah don't worry ,

it'll be MVP vs Leenock at first round


Kidding aside , I'm pretty sure GOM will reconsider a bigger team league idea if GSTL subscription numbers get high enough. I mean they don't have the luxury to do whatever they want after all , they have to ( and probably gladly ) please their costumers and viewer base.

On the other hand , I feel a big portion of GSL viewers doesn't even know about GSTL. Of course most of the TL users know & love it but I doubt it's that well known among casual followers. GSTL needs more ad , love and hype I guess.


Can you imagine!!! That would be so wrong if it would happen. Poor Leenock, knowing his luck, it'll probably happen.

Is there a qualification for the next Code A soon, or the same guys return? I hope that Min, Ryung, Yonghwa, Bomber, Squirtle, ZerO and DongRae gets a chance at it.

I mean, Bomber is the only player who has defeated MMA if I'm not wrong.

By the way guys, what are your favorite matches of the tournament?
Real mens play Zerg.. Startale fighting.

lol? The finals alone are totally worth it. And I live in Brazil man, I have to work much more than an average person at USA to get $5.

Imagine if we had enough memebrs of TL to participate? Oh man the drama, the hype, the tension!

I love the gstl way more, you get to see more players play the tensions higher and pressure is more as if you lose you dont just let yourself down, but other players too. Im just extremely annoyed at my internet provider (uni net) blocking gom and stuff i have to watch it at my friends or find some obscure download

I'm guessing (/hoping) this is sarcasm, 5 dollar is like 3.50 euros... Thats, pretty much for free. 3.50 euro's for several hours of entertainment, talk about getting your moneys worth!

This is probably one of the more stupid comments ive read. Most people spend $5 for a bag of chips and a pop, or something else just as wasteful. Getting 30-40 amazingly high calibur games is most definitely worth it. I dunno why people always seem to rage over the smallest of fees.

i also think its helped a lot, thats in 1v1 end up feeling a race torunament... T players cheers for Terran players, Z for Z, P for P... but here, it wasnt about a zerg/terran/toss win, but a team win... and i found myself pretty happy seeing Terrans beating Zerg for example, wich dont ussually happen on 1v1, i think team battle, helps us to take our ego out of the game (yes even as a watcher), and lets us just cheers for the players we just like the most

Well for me it's that I disapprove with the whole GSL system of code a and s and whatnot.
Furthermore GSTL has produced very very exciting matches thus far, and the best matches overall were GSTL games.

So for me the teamleague is definitely the more thrilling choice to watch.

Jesus christ how poor are you. The poll on front page says like 85% of TL likes it better than GSL, they produce ~5 hours of games a day and you wont plunk down 1/2 the cost of hollywood's latest garbage for all that content?

skip your cappuccino tomorrow and buy a ticket.

In my opinion, GSTL is better to watch than GSL! GSTL is quite so good!

GSL and GSTL both make each other a ton more exciting. Newcomers face champions in the GSTL, and when they win, we can't wait to see them perform in the GSL.

Great dynamic.

I don't watch GSL anymore, for me it has gotten more boring every season. GSTL on the other hand is enjoyable.

I like how the team work, when 1 player down, he has another to back him up, and the player after that see the strategy and know how to beat his opponent. Definitely more strategies than GSL 1v1.

That's a very good point I actually hadn't thought of. This is very true.

This. That's half a movie ticket and not even half the prize of popcorn.

Hell, a large milk tea/flavored tea/slush with boba can get up to $6.

Agreed! while the GSTL has been truly exciting, it wouldn't be quite as exciting if we didn't have the 'legends' from GSL to pit against the "unknown" and "underdogs" like MMA. I think both do justice to each other, i just hope GSTL can become a longer/more often thing!
I now have autographs of both BoxeR and NaDa. I can die happy. Lim Yo Hwan and Lee Yun Yeol FIGHTING forever!

That's what I used to think. Then I realized that $5 is half the price of a Chipotle burrito and I could just skip a burrito if I really need the money. Then I watched the games. Now I'm more tempted to buy GSTL tickets than the regular GSL tickets.

In BW, I really only watched MSL/OSL for the finals 'cause that was (almost) always the best of the best dukin it out for the title of numbah 1. Proleague was more exciting (ie. watching Bisu get his 495876th all-kill off Ace )
