BO1 :/ are you serious? I know these matches have to be broadcast but that kinda sucks to have your tiebreak be determined by one game.
This reminds me a lot of college football, where people at the end of the year like to rank the "1 loss" teams. My thinking has always been that if you don't want to leave it to chance (as a player), don't lose (since you'd then be a top seed). Otherwise, it's up to the tournament people to tie break in whatever way they see fit.

I'm glad to see MoMaN made it into the playoffs, disproving those haters :DD

Maps? Will the players veto one map at the time from the NASL map pool until one remains?

So. I guess playoffs will be formed like this
A - 1, 10, 11, 20 (Zenio, Idra or Fenix or Sjow or Nada, Mana, dde)
B - 2, 9, 12, 19 (Ace, Idra or Fenix or Sjow or Nada, TT1 or Hasuobs, BRAT_OK or Socke)
C - 3, 8, 13, 18 (Morrow, Idra or Fenix or Sjow or Nada, TT1 or Hasuobs, BRAT_OK or Socke)
D - 4, 7, 14, 17 (Naniwa, Idra or Fenix or Sjow or Nada, Darkforce, Axslav or Cruncher)
E - 5, 6, 15, 16 (MC, Kiwikaki, Moman, Axslav or Cruncher)

Cheese works on any player, including nestea, if you miss the scout.

Nice, don't think we'll be seeing any special strategies or such since these aren't too important matches.
Will there be a restream for Europe aswell?
|
Amazing that we get to see even more games now! xD
Only sad thing is that it is only BO1 :/
Anyway, many matches should compensate that.
Keep up the great work NASL!!

will be so nice when season is over so i can finally leave this league... unplayable lag and on insane times at night -_-;;
I didn't realize Europeans also had bad times - Koreans are always complaining their 3-6am slots, doesn't that translate to evening time in Europe? Or is Naniwa referring to when he moves to Korea? Anyways, =(
On the plus side, based on Motbob's latest full rankings - I think with TLO/Naniwa out, Tyler may avoid relegation.

>.<
Sucks to hear, the league has so much promise, but obviously being international this was inevitable.
Good luck though! Dignitas FIGHTING!

Sounds good!
Go go Nada! Meet Boxer in the Finals!

Naniwa..i am disappoint.
Koreans play with the same or worse lag with the same or worse time slots. Like 4 out of the top 10 are koreans. You are one of my fav players so no reason to say such comments. if you dont like to play in it or dont like the times thats your own call to make but to say its unplayable is ultimately an exaggeration and probably an excuse for your own struggles.
Moon MorroW July White-Ra Strelok
Squirtle Ret Select Boxer Sen
How many of them are even NA players? 1? No reason to bring latency into this.
EDIT:
Also, stream more naniwa!

Considering he finished the season 6-2 I'd hardly say he's struggling. I don't really know how the time slots for the NASL work, but from what little I have read it seems like it really gives international players a disadvantage, or is at least very inconvenient for them.

OOHHHHHHH
Damn I didn't realize all these players were intending to lose some matches to be in this position
Yeah you're right they should definitely decide to not lose next time

There was a reason Jinro and Huk decided not to participate in NASL  . I think it's safe to say you will be out of NASL 2? I hope to see you in the GSL. Naniwa fighting!

Just because some players can win a series even under unfair conditions doesn't justify the way rules are set up.

Yeah, I mean playing a max of three games a week in a $100000 tournament must be really hard.

Well the rules are the rules, no one is being forced to participate. I really like Naniwa but he can choose to opt out if he doesn't like the format. If NASL wants to run it that way they have the right to, they're putting up the cash as a reward. If they set up rules that disfavour some players and those players choose not to sign up (eg. Naniwa), then that will send a message that maybe they should change.
But again, it's up to NASL, if what they're doing works for the majority of players and the general public then they're probably making good decisions.

do europeans lag that bad playing on US? I play on EU from US and it feels to me like i'm playing on US, I don't have any latency at all. I figured it was the same for Eu but obviously not.
