Still better than NASL for me today though, seeing as how I can't even get that stream for some reason.

Well we're only talking about production right now. Obviously the quality of the games themselves are outside of anyone's control.

I think this kinda proves something.

You can have a league with the best of the best and a TON of prize money, but if your production lacks then people won't watch if there is an alternative that is done well, even if the players aren't the most elite nor the prize pool as big

It sucks for NASL, because they do this day by day and the IPL matches were done a week in advance IIRC. Hopefully this will turn out better as time goes on (for NASL).

Some have professional ressources / staff, some don't.


The IPL is done by volunteers from wellplayed.org (apparently i read this in the IPL thread) You could say they are just as understaffed as NASL is
I asked my friend how the ratio at a party was, he replied. "Let's just say for every guy there was two dudes."

nope if u read the ign thread all this is made by a website called wellplayed.org and it is all produced by VOLUNTEERS with little to zero experience in this kind of stuff. They are firsties just like nasl.

I have to admit I was VERY skeptical of the IGN proleague but color me impressed. Maybe I had my expectations set low because of the NASL but my first impression of the IPL is very positive. Great stream quality, great audio, no lag, and cool player graphics/art. I would not have chosen the casters they chose, but I understand they are trying to cater to a more casual audience. Great work IPL, the NASL is now irrelevant to me.

Enough said!

Indeed.

I just randomly tuned in at the end of the first Machine/SeleCT game and was absolutely blown away by the quality of the overlay as well as the graphics and stuff that showed up at the end. I knew the SCR/WellPlayed guys would be good, but this just blows me away! I'm so excited for this!

Great production quality! Looks very clean, and I don't mind the solo commentary. I'm watching ign and nasl at the same time

I did not expect this. 100% free, 1080p vods and stream? Top players and high production value? Minimal down time? Lag-free?

Absolutely amazing. NASL has some serious competition.
good vibes only

I gotta admit, the prize pool doesn't seem to have much of an effect on entertainment. So far the IPL has been more entertaining than any of the NASL I've seen.

the production is amazing, but they are casting from replays and not live games which helps with quality, the casts are recorded prolly with fraps by the casters and then the production team put on all the sexy gfx.

The NASL has live casters in a studio, players playing live and more analysis, its a completely different ball game production wise to film live in a studio, you simply can't compare the two. IPL is amazing yes, but they aren't working on the same scale as NASL.
When there is nothing left to lose but your dignity, it is already gone.

IGN is the Dreamhack of starleagues...as soon as they get more top-caliber players in the mix, it'll be absolutely huge. I can't wait till the ro8 and onward when the competition really starts getting fierce.

i agree. the fancy graphics and stuff are just a novelty. people tend to focus too much on "production value" and "casters" while not enough people focus on the damn good players that produce great games.

I don't like the solo caster, but Wheat is doing it pretty well.
Everything else looks very nice.

They aren't "firsties", they've had a bit more experience, additionally the folks at IGN do obviously have additional resources.

Obviously the IPL is much better produced than the NASL, but let's not make it seem as though the people at the NASL are just entirely incompetent while the people running the IPL are equally inexperienced but competent.

The IPL has a few hard working people with some experience and access to many resources.

The only trouble with the league is that the casting is freaking terrible. For me it was just unwatchable, I was able to stand like 5 minutes of Wheat and 30 seconds of TotalBiscuit. They either need to get better casters (probably not the best solution) or get dual casters.
