if possible set up a winners/loosers interview through skype, phone line or chat to buy time it could be predetermined set of questions for the players to answer Something else that would be cool is to award the best game/player of the week Awards in general is something that energizes both player and spectators, more awards! | ||

They're for learning from and making yourself a better player. Exactly what the SC2 community has always been about. If the NASL is confident about their production value, then releasing replays won't effect them in any way. | ||

It would just be unfair to the players. | ||

Sure everyone can figure out a baic build when watching the vods, but the little things are hard to notice when there are no replays released. Why should the pros work their asses of just so others can steal their builds without putting any time on refinement? Seems kinda unfair for me | ||

The Set. The set looks fantastic; the matte finish feels so stylish. It ushered a professional feel right from the beginning. At first, I did feel like a tiny bit more color would be nice. The Casting. You can tell both casters have practiced up. Incontrol is obviously the rock upon which the commentary rests, but Gretorp has dramatically improved since Clash. Overall, a good mix of narrative and analysis. I'm actually looking forward to hearing more from the duo, which is crazy after Gretorp left such a poor first impression on me. I appreciated the jackets- losing the hoodie was a good choice. Also, proletariat. The Content. While some of the games were more entertaining than others (It was painful for everyone to see Battlenet rear its ugly head between Morrow and Rainbow), they did well to find a storyline behind every matchup. In my opinion, NASL sets the standard in this regard. The post-game interviews were a fantastic addition, and they worked well with the other vidoes, map fly-throughs, etc, to keep the production from feeling stale. The Early Game Split Screen. This is a fantastic idea, but it could have been executed better. I would love to see each caster pick 1 player to focus on in the early game so we could continue to see the builds unfold in both camps. This is largely the only criticism I have. Overall, I was in love with the production quality- you could even tell time was taken to find the perfect way to present the NASL/JustinTV/Facebook/Twitter overlay. A big, big thanks to everyone involved. TL;DR I agree that Gretorp still has improvements to make, but he's on the road to winning me over. Production quality was not lacking. Everything seemed to serve as a device to finding the story behind the games. 5 stars. | ||

From a financial stand point it can be very bad as they are making money from this. If say Day9 Or Husky started casting their games many players who are fans of theirs might skip the live show and favor the versions by the more well known casters which would reduce revenues and decrease the chance that they can have more tournaments in the future. | ||

I would much rather see stuff live rather than having to watch the Vods. I end up looking at the results instead of watching the games. | ||

Need player/score title bar on screen allways. Should have NASL logo on screen allways in normal location (on right). Should have player country flags when showing detailed player info, we are trying to tell people more about the players and where they come from / represent is interesting. For the map analysis in the pregame show the 3D walkaround is good and all (and new  but I would love to see more of the traditional drawing on the map like I've see in OSL etc. The game/maps are still 2 dimensional so pointing out/marking chokes points and expansion paths would be great. Day9 has done this great before.Example: ![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/swanized/Maps/Montecristo_1.jpg) | ||

If the NASL is confident about their production value, which they've been marketing from the start, then releasing replays won't effect them in any way. Youtube casters just won't have the same quality in production that NASL has. That's a big part of what you're paying for. | ||

I could see other drops/fights happening on the mini map that were not shown. I remember in one match they were focusing on a small muta harass when a huge battle was going on in the middle of the map. Also it would be nice if they had a very quick segmant in the pre-game to go over what SC2 is (tried to get my wife into watching but she was lost). | ||
