What NASL really should do is have some prelim testing matches that are streamed for free in high def (or whatever normally is given for premium users who have paid) so that nothing like this MLG disaster will happen.
I like this idea

I'll be purchasing this as soon as I'm able to find a job but until then, the free stream will have to do.

5 or 10 dollars for a month of gsl. Or 25 for 3 months of nasl, which is definetely 3x more games. Dont see why so much fussing is going on

25 for 3 months nasl or 0 for nongsl/nasl casts which is def 1000x more games.

dont see why so much discussion is going on.



/ i dont agree with this statement. and i see the value of high quality games and production. but you just cant reduce it like that to such a limited POV. (see previous page post)

How many games are we talking here? Isn't just the opening portion 5 10 player round robins? That's a fuck ton of games. Or I'm totally wrong. Whichever.

I think I'll get it at least the first season to see what it's all about.

I'm shocked that people are complaining about the price, when they have the option to watch it streamed and cast live, for free.

What are these people bitching about, exactly?

I went ahed and bought it (I really like watching games and would like to support), but here are some initial problems that they should fix asap:

- no test stream or bandwith check for HQ (how can I even know if it is worth to run the 1080p stream they are trying to sell?).

- when entering the presale code, it doesnt actually update the value from 25USD from 20USD before or during confirmation.

- no confirmation e-mail was sent from purchase, nor was it given another sort of detailed receipt.

- after confirmation, I got a link saying "back to NASL but now with more awesome" and is redirected to a standard justin.tv channel stream with a frozen screen. No schedule, no features, no anything yet. Awkward.

Obviously, all of those are easily fixable and somewhat minor, but it does look bad to a new business (with no reputation) to appear unprofessional when charging money or advertising.

I think it would be allot easier sell at 8 dollars/month. Microtransactions.

sure a league that cuts out 98% of the viewerbase will def work good.


be real. 99% of potential and actual gsl(nasl) viewers dont pay for it. the few K that do pay wont attract any sponsors. at all.

$25 is complete bs for this. MLG has free replays for download. This isn't Korea! Americans should get free VODs. Make the rest of the World pay lol.

There is zero percent chance I will pay $25 for this, even tho I started paying for GSL. It sucks because I won't be able to watch them live .

I think the weakness in their pricing and product offering is that they're following the GSL model a little too closely. There's an American audience for Korean vods, but not necessarily an international audience for American VODs. One of the primary reasons why people in North America subscribed to the GSL, even though they have a free stream, was the massive time difference.

So it's not a matter of 'is it worth it?' but more a matter of 'will enough people pay?'

Now that I think of it, the NASL should have allowed more European players because they're the audience that suffers from the time difference between America the most, and have the most incentive to subscribe.

I'm really going to have to see what the content looks like before I can commit anything ahead of time. It really comes down to GSL vs NASL for me... Until I know which has the better content I don't know who to pay...

I still don't understand why people are so willing to pay for content that isn't anything particularly special to begin with. Almost all, if not all the players in the leagues top 50 play games that are casted weekly, often against each other, it's not like there's a lack of tournaments (if anything there's too many, it's like sc2 is trying to be forced down your throat at every turn atm) and it's the rare occasion to see your favorite player play. All this talk of "U GOTTA PAY 2 SUPOR ESPOTS IN MURIKA XD" is kind've annoying, if the product simply cannot sustain itself without any additional income it is destined for failure in the long run anyway.

Can someone enlighten me?

Amazing financial tact... Figuring the best way to compete with GSL is to take 25 bucks for three months... I'll still try it out of course, but it's quite steep for a tournament that has yet to prove itself as being any good. Alot of commitment compared to GSL

I'll definitely go for it season 1, I want the league to succeed and I'll go in blind for 1 season. If it doesn't deliver I'm happy to keep my money for future seasons, but I expect a satisfying product.

I can totally understand people having apprehension though. If you are already paying $10 a month for GSL to bump up your monthly SC2 expense by a bit more than $8($25/3 months) a month, paying $18+ a month on SC2 VODs might be an unreasonable thing for you to do(I know I am questioning it myself). So I can totally see it coming down to NASL or GSL for people, and GSL has a history to judge and a favorable one at that especially most recently.
