TL Attack this week will be with special guest Dignitas`NaNiwa. Naniwa believes the show will go "OK" and wishes to be fed sushi throughout. But instead of sushi, we're going to give him cheese. If you want a chance to play against him, just log on to Bnet NA server and we'll be giving instructions on which channel to go to.
TL Attack will be hosted this weekend by iNcontroL and Diggity. They will do everything in their power to distract Naniwa from playing well. Waxangel will make his observing debut, as he's the world's biggest Naniwa fanboy. Kulas extreme and SC2BW may make an appearance as well. If you don't get in, don't worry, we'll be streaming every minute!
TeamLiquid Attack is a fun, casual event where a popular professional StarCraft 2 player plays custom 1v1s against community members. Typically, the player attempts creative or non-serious strategies while sharing friendly banter with the hosts. The show is a great way to get to know the personality of the popular player that might not normally be seen in serious ladder games or in tournaments.

YAY, Gooo Naniwa. I loved him during the JP SOTG after party coaching huk playing. When he opens up this guy is hilarious. I hope he does some serious trolling!
Yay Nani! I love that it seems like he doesn't have a good sense of humour, but after listening to SOTG you realize he's a really funny guy. Super pumped for this TL Attack
Naniwa is a really cool guy, and im also very happy to have incontrol and diggity hosting this week. Hopefully naniwa reveals how he feels about finishing 2nd at tsl and the homestory cup, and he also talks about what his training regime at korea is going to be like :D

If Naniwa has never played BW then this TL attack should probably skip SC2BW.
No, thats a great reason to play a lot of SC2BW!
How would it be fun to watch A) Naniwa lose because he doesn't know what to do B) Both players stumble around because they don't know how to play
Sheth's SC2BW game was a good example of how bad the game can turn out when the other guy sucks. I don't think it would be much different if the guest is the one sucking.
YES! OH YES PLEASE YES OH YES! I almost came. Man. This is AWESOME!
I wonder how he'll do at SC:BW considering he's a warcraft player. Hopefully it'll go OK ^^ Naniwa is such a huge idol of mine when it comes to everything SC2.
I would love to play against one of my favorite players ( Behind MVP and Neastea ) but I will feel embarassed having thousands of people watch my platinum badness get stomped.

Maybe you'll get the patented "maybe we should check the players profiles before choosing them" shortly after the game has started.
I'm going to miss the live show but will sure as hell catch up when I can. Looking forward to some epic Naniwa quotes that will undoubtedly be there :D
Oh yes, please Kulas Extreme. Last episode was an absolute blast and I loved seeing that map, just make sure the guy on the other side knows what's up this time

seriously someone should make sc2 wc3...
I'm sure there are people already working on it, the main problem is that just about everything would have to be modeled from scratch. Since I doubt the team for such a project would exceed 5 people, you're looking at several months before it's even presentable.

i wanted a chance to play huk to just see how bad his strats that don't work against me on ladder would actually crush me, but my style is too similar to Nani
even though he's my favorite, i already suck in war of the worlds, and i would get obliterated by nani
So excited for Naniwa! But seriously, can we do some other extreme maps? I doubt Kulas is the only extreme map. Let's get some extreme diversity going!
OMG they should ahve had Chill in this too that woulda been hilarious because he woulda had to have gotten out. Also, I personally think this is gonna be OK
I tried to come up with some sort of "its ok" joke..but im not funny enough to create and original one lol... but this should be pretty damn fun to watch

Considering he hasn't been BM at all the past seven or so months, I'd highly doubt it. I dunno what you've been doing the past seven months, but it can't have been starcraft related. You're no true nerd.
.. That's like the worst insult I could come up with, and should be read in a vibrating, deep Gandalf voice.
Allways a glad occasion when i get home and see teamliquids front-page updated with something new. And this was certainly extra awesome! :D Gogo Naniwa, fucking amazing player.

I bet a few tournanent organizers beg to differ on the BM part...but whatever.
Great to see Naniwa in this, I'm especially looking forward to some SC2BW suckage
Oh yeah, really looking forward to this TL Attack! Naniwa is such a good player, and I love listening to iNcontrol. I hope it turns out as good as I hope it to!
[I miss iNcontrol on SotG… but then again, I really miss SotG in general]

Maybe he is already in Korea, in which case KR to EU is completely unplayable because there is too much lag. Although it seems kind of early for him to already be in Korea and I feel like we would've heard something if he did.

I was thinking the same thing. Why change days, especially on a holiday?
What are you talking about? It starts in seven hours.
Timezones are a very strange thing! (i.e. it's 4th july in Korea when it's starting)
About the EU/NA thing - I think Incontrol mentioned a loooong time back (regarding his coaching lessons) that he only has a NA account. So maybe he's the culprit!
R1CH said Monday 8pm but the "Upcoming TL events" says today 8pm, and seeing as they changed the time on the calender, surely they would also change the day on it, if that was the case?

Yeah, you are probably right. 8pm CET would be 4th July in Korea, bit confusing though.
Having the TL calendar run by KST is a bit silly when 90% of events are in NA/EU.
It's something that carried over from the old BW times. It can get really confusing in conjunction with the [date] tags sometimes.
Official TL time should probably be changed to UTC, or at the very least an NA/EU timezone to prevent a majority of users getting confused with NA/EU events being displayed in KST, messing with the dates.

Umm, no. That is 22 hours later than previously announced.
Jul 04 8:00pm CEST (GMT+02:00)
That's how it appears for us. Notice, that is Jul 5 in Korea. I think you messed up the time and date.
Notice in his post he formatted the time as (date]tomorrow 2pm EDT[/date) (press quote on his post and you will see). I don't know what time zone he is in, but he probably meant to type (date]today 2pm EDT[/date). In other words, the event should start in little over 6 hours.

Read my post above. I'm pretty sure it's on in 2 hours and 30 mins. This is assuming the moderator who gave us the time change made a formatting mistake, and it looks like he did.
How does one go about watching the stream? Perhaps my search was not the most thorough, but I am stumped at this point. I used TL search, Google search, looked at the stream list, I couldn't find anything indicating where to go for the live stream for this event. I also tried to PM Hot Bid since he seems to be on the inside of organizing these things and have gotten no answer. So if anyone could please help me with this information (even its just a link to the "duh" location), I'd would be most appreciative.

The stream will be shown in the streams list on the right, below 'TL Attack w/NaNiwa' or w/e the event name will be shown as.

I'm guessing just as with TL Opens, they get a lot more people by doing it on NA.

i figured that the tl open things are slightly understandable if they want to accommodate koreans due to lag issues, this is a community event and they seem to be rapidly forgetting there is a community in europe

I really don't think lack of of people is a problem. When they did it on EU server, the channels filled up to max within ONE second. It was crazy. Must have been thousands of people trying to participate. I am a very fast typer and I tried to join the channels withing like ONE second and it was full.
Btw, LOL at Incontrol misunderstanding Naniwa's name as Johanna instead of Johan!
Wow this backgroundnoise is realy anoying, do you realy have to cast in the same room with a dog and talking people? Its pretty much ruining this whole episode for me... I mean, in general i like Incontrol casting but when its like this its just not enjoyable.

inControl just does not care about the noise on the stream, or he thinks that he is so cool as a caster the stream is better with the background noise + talking and his witticisms than it would be without. He's wrong.
I stopped watching. Maybe Incontrol is used to hearing that dog barking a lot or something, but its beyond annoying, especially when we also have to hear people talking in the background. Hope the next one is better.
I know this shows meant to be laid back and all that, but the background noise from geoffs microphone made this absolutely unbearable to watch for me, which made me really sad cause i usually enjoy TL attack so much. So i guess what i WOOF WOOF WOOF WOOF WOOF.

Yeah, this isn't the first time that Incontrol has wrecked a broadcast with his background noise. I'm thinking back to the kids who were constantly in the background for Kings of Tin. That was the worst KoT ever and now this is the worst TL Attack. Oh and don't mention the many times his keyboard noise has dominated streams.
Please Incontrol, find a way to fix your background noise. It's not amusing anymore
Ok thats it for me too, would be pretty cool if there was a caster who takes his casting a bit more serious in the next TL-attack. I love this show but its just no fun to watch if you only get to understand half of the talking because of stupid background-noises. Well, watching EG MCSL finals now -.-
At this point the woman pisses me off more than the dog TBH, the dog is too stupid to know it should just go be annoying somewhere else, but she could just leave the damn room and talk on the phone(?) somewhere else.

This is so true. Does she realize 3017 people are listening to her phone call?
They should tell him the handicaps after the game started after asking the opponent to turn off the stream or whatever. Kind of boring when you know that the opponents always know the handicaps.

I know but so many "fun handicaps" become impossible when they know about it.
Although is fine now I have to say that the beginning was extremely disrespectfull from Incontrol. Disrespectfull for Naniwa, the other casters and not the least for the thousands of viewers.

I missed the beginning. What did Incontrol say?
Read the previous pages and you will understand what I meant.
1. Diggity has no idea what's going on. 2. InControl mocking players that aren't Masters. Naniwa had to keep him in line!! 3. Both commentators repeating constantly that players are watching the stream when the first two specifically said that they turned the stream off and there was no evidence that they were watching. 4. InControl's mom and dog making constant noise in the background (wtf?!)

Number 2 is by ar the best part of this TL and is something that has been missing from the recent TL attacks, it's awesome and all done in good fun.
Number 3 is just weird, they say that in all the TL attacks and are usually right and that has become part of the show.
Number 4 isn't anything either. It's a minor disturbance at worst and depending on the players/commentators position it's completely out of his control so how can you blame anyone for that. The show is relaxed and has a relaxed attitude, maybe you should try to relax and enjoy it for what it is.
omg, use push to talk if you know there's noise in the background!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
naniwa was awesome, incontrol was not. come on man, you knew you were casting TL attack, but we get to hear your family and pets in the background? not cool.

I don't exactly want to compare it to any other form of entertainment, but you don't have a barking dog or have relatives talking over you in other shows... Movies, TV, and whatnot. It isn't exactly the same, but I don't see why it shouldn't be following suit.
Minor noise is what you can call it, but nobody wants to hear a dog barking while trying to listen to people talk about whats at hand on the show. I think the argument most of us have here is that it isn't up to par to the other TL attacks that have been done.

I started watching a little late just about an hour ago, maybe it was more prevalent before that but I don't know why you'd let something minor like that ruin your experience. If it was constant or made it so I couldn't hear them talking that would be different but that's clearly not the case. I didn't say anyone wanted to hear a dog barking and I don't know why you put it like that but my point is simply that it doesn't really matter if you don't let it, but again I wasn't here for the first hour so maybe it was really excessive before that.
And not that it matters but all those other forms of entertainment are in a lot more controlled environment and in most other cases they're paid and seldom live.
I'm not saying this is ideal it's just not this major point you're making it out to be. I love this TL attack and I hope to see Incontrol back as a commentator and Naniwa back as whatever
Diggity seemed to not really know what to do. Maybe he was just nervous but i would prefer somebody who would try to bust the players balls, like Incontrol did.

1. Diggity has no idea what's going on. 2. InControl mocking players that aren't Masters. Naniwa had to keep him in line!! 3. Both commentators repeating constantly that players are watching the stream when the first two specifically said that they turned the stream off and there was no evidence that they were watching. 4. InControl's mom and dog making constant noise in the background (wtf?!)
HotBid, you need to step in and take control of this horribleness! The only good part about this episode was NaNiwa himself! He was super mannered, and awesome.
Number 2 is by ar the best part of this TL and is something that has been missing from the recent TL attacks, it's awesome and all done in good fun.
Number 3 is just weird, they say that in all the TL attacks and are usually right and that has become part of the show.
Number 4 isn't anything either. It's a minor disturbance at worst and depending on the players/commentators position it's completely out of his control so how can you blame anyone for that. The show is relaxed and has a relaxed attitude, maybe you should try to relax and enjoy it for what it is.
I don't exactly want to compare it to any other form of entertainment, but you don't have a barking dog or have relatives talking over you in other shows... Movies, TV, and whatnot. It isn't exactly the same, but I don't see why it shouldn't be following suit.
Minor noise is what you can call it, but nobody wants to hear a dog barking while trying to listen to people talk about whats at hand on the show. I think the argument most of us have here is that it isn't up to par to the other TL attacks that have been done.
I started watching a little late just about an hour ago, maybe it was more prevalent before that but I don't know why you'd let something minor like that ruin your experience. If it was constant or made it so I couldn't hear them talking that would be different but that's clearly not the case.
It was. The video jenzebubble posted was pretty accurate.
This was the worst TL Attack so far, and it wasn't Naniwa's fault at all. I was really looking forward to seeing him on it, but the casting wasn't anywhere near as good/entertaining as HuK's was last week, and all that background noise was really annoying after a while.
I would love for if what InControl joked about was true regarding a SC2BW tournament with old BW pros. It's the funnest part of all TL attacks. <3 Day9's mech play on BGH.
I enjoyed the stream, not quick enough to get in a game, but probably better that way, lol. I love the the Nani reacted to iNcontrol's trolling, though, I was hoping for a little more trolling... and of course, wish Chill was in on this. Anyway, nicely done, thanks for these, keep up the good work!

Otherwise, it was a fun episode
After it's over, I have one point of positive feedback. That point is Naniwa.
I have two points of negative feedback. Those points are one unknown woman and a random dog.
All in all? Great TL Attack! Woof woof woof woof WOOF WOOF
I was a little disappointed in this weeks TL Attack. It's a shame as I was looking forward to seeing Naniwa on. Still it's one out of five so far so it isn't a huge deal.
Remember when I didn't have a webcam for SOTG? It was because the cpu is set up in Russ Pfister's house and his family doesn't want to be on camera for the internet.
Same problems here. Their dog, their room, their kids.. I am not going to turn around and say "HEY GUYS, CAN EVERYONE STOP EVERYTHING THEY ARE DOING CAUSE I'M ON THE INTERNET?"
Yeah, I know it's annoying. It's REALLY annoying for me too. I am moving soon to AZ where it won't be an issue. But in the mean time chill the fuck out. Disrespectful? My mom? Wtf? Stop speculating... and I'm sorry it "ruined" everything in the beginning.. I am stuck in this situation I cannot say anything to them because it would be unreasonable. Calling me unprofessional in a fucking show where we are asked to make fun of everything is laughable. Saying I disrespect naniwa when he is 100% fine with it and chill (take his lead here) is stupid.. we are also friends and a dog barking in the background doesn't equal disrespect wtf.
I didn't really enjoy this attack at all, I thought incontrol with his stereotypes were lame and offensive (as always), and diggity didn't try to really harass naniwa much.
Although most of incontrols questions actually made it remotely entertaining. "Where do you see your self in 10 years?" I laughed at that =D.
You need to stop with your pathetic stereotypes though, you're really annoying with that.
The dog might not be disrespecteful because of the nature of the show, but imagine that ur trying to watch a movie and ur neighbour's dog doesnt stop barking? yea pretty annoying.

You did a pretty great job, regardless of the tiny yapper. You and Naniwa work well together.
Everyone figured it was Anna + her dog, in which case everyone would expect you to go "HEY GUYS, CAN EVERYONE STOP EVERYTHING THEY ARE DOING CAUSE I'M ON THE INTERNET?"

Let's also remind everyone that Geoff is in that house solely on the charity and goodwill of Russ and his family as well, allowing him to crash there during the course of the NASL casting. It'd be patently rude and disrespectful for Geoff to turn around and tell anyone there what to do in their own house.

Not to be negative or anything...but only a certain type of commenter can make this TL attack work. Chill and Hotbid did very good jobs when they were on... Wheat was not as good but still better than TLO/Diggity and definitely way better than incontrol/day9 (both tried to force their jokes and it didn't work). Would like to see Husky on TL attack...he can think on his feet..has very good 'verbal APM' so we would haven't had the awkward silences we had and can be very funny (when he's not trying to be). Diggity is a very good caster, TLattack didn't suit is style though.
Waxangel/observer needed to be monitoring the chat so he can inform inontrol that there is a virtual lynch mob forming to lynch his dog (and family). If these guys are struggling for questions/maps/handicaps...simply monitor the justin.tv chat...lots of ideas there.
The show wasn't all that bad...the probe rush was cool. Seeing the marauders go down in sea of probes mineral-rallied for the surround was definitely the highlight of the show. Mass probes + mass expansions + mass cannons with or without a probe rush is actually a curious idea that might be viable on ladder (Whitera almost does a variant of this vs Zerg).

Chillax dudes, I think it all boils down to people not being aware of Geofs situation I'm not sure everyone knew that you had no choice, hence the hating going on..
You did really well though Geoff, these kind of events really seems to suit you - A co-caster like HotBid would have been fantastic in the given setup though

I agree, I think Hot_Bid and Chill both would work really well with Incontrol on TL Attack, although to be honest I haven't had a single TL Attack I didn't like so maybe I'm not the best judge of this, I'm too accepting :O

I enjoyed Geoffs input; but he must have realised that his situation would severely detract from what could have been a far more enjoyable viewing experience. I'm sure there are others who could have taken his place; and he could have done a future TL Attack instead..

Comon guys, lighten up already.
There was a third option...incontrol could have muted his microphone and text commented only (hotbid style). He could have asked questions and everything from the chat sans the dog/woman/kid. They also could have brought on another commentator...WaxAngel probably had a mike...and we know there other pro's/commentators watching that could have filled in. Lastly, Incrontol could have just left...between annoying 10k people with background pollution or leaving...the former would have been the correct choice.

Have you ever seen Geoff attempt to navigate a piece of software other than Starcraft on his stream? It's never a painless or smooth ordeal. I wouldn't presume to speak for him, but its definitely possible he just doesn't know how to switch it.

Would you rather they not do this at all?

Get off your high horse and enjoy what's given to you.

The Nords; master race of shitty food.
But seriously, the fish I can see but köttbullar (get it right mang) is just.. really average. Don't think there's anyone who can't eat it. That goes for most Swedish (well, Scandinavian) food. Not amazing, not puke inducing. England has far worse, if anything.
Jokes about Scandinavian personality are funnier, because they're so damn spot on. Luckily Inc always includes a bunch.
nah complaining about the dog is def legit.. I was dying inside. I grew up with dogs and if they barked I brought hell and fury lol
But going severe with it and calling professionalism / respect etc.. into question is too much. It sucked, I'm sorry, won't be an issue in the future, wish we could move on!

I don't think it's meant as in it's terrible, it's just not very inspired.. There is very little spice/variety in our dishes compared to alot of other countries.. I agree however, the british are on a whole different level of crappiness when it comes to food

You need to stop with your pathetic stereotypes though, you're really annoying with that.

I can't believe so many people are crying about a free event. The sense of entitlement is ridiculous.
I agree wholeheartedly ol' chap. This TL:Attack was riveting, I believe incontrol should continue to use his racial profiling as it's rather enjoyable I do say.
how dare people come to a free forum and make a comment
forums arent for comment, they are just for looking at because they are purdy.

you are doing an amazing job, i really enjoyed your appearance in this episode. it was so funny seeing how many people were so annoyed just because of a barking dog (didnt annoyed me that much but appearently thats just me)

Haha oh man your pokes at Naniwa made me laff And when you guys were making them lisp noises and nani said "collusus". And then THE DOG BARKED WHAT THE FUCK jay kay cool episode <3<3
This TL attack was totally awesome LOL. I dont know about the rest of you but that barking dog became like background music to me after like 1 min? i just got used to it, kinda like a really loud A/C in your room. Not to mention i actually thought it was hilarious hearing a random mom scream every once in a while whilst naniwita was asked what she would do if she dated hotbid.
Then the best part of this whole thing is this effing thread ahahah. Good thing tomorrow is monday, i cant wait for tasteless and his rant on pants up to the belly button-type angry nerds. Incontrol's post was pure gold. He only forgot to tell him he wears a pink shirt saying im comfortable with my sexuality.

You should try to get a better mic imo. Because even when there isn't a lot of background noise, your keyboard sound is very loud. ( like in some SotG ) I don"'t know if it's because you have a separate microphone on your desk or what, but that could use some improvement in general. :o
Incontrol's keyboard on his stream is also really loud which personally annoys me, too. I think there is something wrong with the microphone if you hear these noises so loud. Maybe too sensitive?

I just don't find stereotypical jokes funny, they're offensive to some, they're extremely easy to do and they're for cheap laughs. Thats obviously my opinion and It's shared by very few others, you act as if I'm furious about this or something, when in reality I just thought it was lame, or pathetic, which is what I stated.
Right after that, I commented on how his other stuff was really funny, and put in my input on how the event could have went better (without complaining about the dog or person in the background, because I obviously know thats an uncontrollable(lol) situation)
Sorry for saying what I felt, I didn't mean to sound like I'm furious about the situation or something like that, It was just a small comment, I apologize, I take it all back.

It's not just incontrol...the last TLAttack was very 'sound unbalanced' as well (you could hardly hear Huk while Wheat was quite loud...so I had to constantly turn the volume up and down so I could either hear Huk or not annoy my neighbors with Wheat's amped microphone).
For any group cast, these guys should always sound balance things first...it's what professional guys do and it's very easy to tweak with your computer settings. Or just monitor the chat...they can let you know in a hurry if something is wrong if casters actually pay attention to this.

You did really well though Geoff, these kind of events really seems to suit you - A co-caster like HotBid would have been fantastic in the given setup though
I enjoyed Geoffs input; but he must have realised that his situation would severely detract from what could have been a far more enjoyable viewing experience. I'm sure there are others who could have taken his place; and he could have done a future TL Attack instead..
It's TL:Attack, the whole idea is to distract the pro, and what better way than to have a conversation going on in the background with a dog barking? This time it doubled up though and they distracted the fans too, it was quite enthralling!
It's not enjoyable to listen to though for the viewer, I would have thought. At least personally I'm not a big fan of listening to dogs bark and random chatter on my Starcraft streams, but each to their own.
Would you rather they not do this at all? You haven't paid a cent and you got to watch Naniwa play against people with incontrol and diggity commentating, yet you're complaining that you could hear a conversation in the background and a dog barking... Get off your high horse and enjoy what's given to you.
When somebody gives you a gift for your birthday do you complain that it's not exactly what you wanted despite it being what you asked for? I would wager that you don't.
Your argument was that it helped to distract Naniwa, increasing the excitement, or similar characteristic, of the show. It obviously didn't for the majority of viewers. This show is done for viewing pleasure of the community I would have thought. And although obviously still enjoyable, it wasn't the best it could have been, and all I was saying is that it would have maybe been a better idea for Geoff to do a future event instead, with someone stepping up to replace him.
I hope this doesn't get taken as I don't appreciate the efforts put in by everyone involved; as that is definitely not the case.

Calling me unprofessional in a fucking show where we are asked to make fun of everything is laughable. Saying I disrespect naniwa when he is 100% fine with it and chill (take his lead here) is stupid.. we are also friends and a dog barking in the background doesn't equal disrespect wtf.

I laughed so hard this afternoon listening to the exchange between iNcontrol and Naniwa. Hilarious is the word I'd use to describe it. The level of detail iNcontrol puts into his comments and sometimes racey questions is astounding.

Your post is hurting ESPORTS. Dont you want gaming to grow into a recognized Olympic event?
InControl, I'm sorry that I was getting on your back about the noise pollution; I was unaware about your situation.
But what was really bothering me was you mocking that guy who went banshees. Not all of us play Starcraft for a living, man. Isn't the whole point of TL Attack so that fans can interact with pros and it be fun? I feel you like are extremely disrespectful to the fans, also when you guys keep saying that the fans playing are watching the stream when the first two fans specifically said they closed the stream, and you just ignored it and kept saying they were cheating.

You can safely assume that people are being sarcastic/facetious when they type ESPORTS. The ALL CAPS is kind of a giveaway, you know. Fuck, even without caps it's enough of a ridiculous joke that people really shouldn't take it seriously.
I mean, goddamn. When did people's understanding of sarcasm get so bad - that is probably the more appropriate question here.

TL being an international site, your rules of sarcasm might differ from others - Hence posting irony/sarcasm on the internet always gets misunderstood - It can't really be a surprise for anyone

TL attack is a joke show where everyone teases everyone o_O
Sarcasm over the internet like this isnt the easiest to understand, especially when you're a little slow on the uptake like me. When one can neither hear the tone of voice or the look in their eyes and all that it gets abit troubling to understand whats sarcasm or not, atleast for me
Was a fun episode, always like these tl attacks ^^ A dream would be to have MC play and Huk and Jinro cast it. That would make my day for sure!

Jesus all you people are taking this shit too serious. The dog sucked, but I got over it after awhile. All the people crying about incontrol making fun of the players that Nani played are lame also. I was Bugga and I played Nani in Kulas Extreme and I could hear iNc calling me terrible and shit, but it's all in fun to me at least. For you people that were getting butthurt over him making fun of other people, just need to go outside for awhile or something. TL Attack has always been a joke, and there is no need for him to be completely professional and straightforward. Saying that he is "ruining ESPORTS" is actually ruining "ESPORTS" because you guys take everything way to serious, and forget that in the end, this is all just a computer game.

TLAttack is best when the subject matter is SC and specifically crazy strategies/crazy maps/crazy handicaps/off racing/team games...the humor will follow naturally and spontaneously on its own from pulling fish out of water which may include teasing but not teasing for the point of teasing.

lol. Well it's better coming from someone who was on the buttend then people who are just observing and getting offended. It's like when white people get more offended over the n word than black people do.
No matter what the circumstances were, I was unable to continue watching the show after the first 20 or so minutes. A show that's usually entertaining, relaxing, and funny shouldn't be literally giving me a headache. I'm definitely excited for future shows still, though.

That seems obvious, du'h! We want iNcontrol not to tease, but to be spontaneous, and then spontaneously make fun of people, all the while making sure he's not teasing. Unless he is teasing naturally. Then that's okay.

LOL Who are you to talk? The show was FOUNDED on the basis of doing this and having fun, go watch ANY TL attack, even the BW ones. Please don't talk about what you have no idea.
This thread has gone far too off-topic, I'll re-open it once the VODs are out. Please think twice before posting. This random bickering and flaming is not helpful at all.
inControL has explained his situation, please keep any further discussion civil. Yes, the dog was annoying. I'll claim some responsibility for that as I was not told that inControL wouldn't be casting from his normal location and thus I didn't recommend he set up push-to-talk. Enjoy the VOD!
I think that the commentators weren't well paired. If you bring incontrol back, I'd like a cocaster that's more proactive in taking some time to talk. Diggity is good, but he never got any flow going.
I'm looking forward to the next episode. Thanks TL.

yet you and I watched the show, who would your super aweseome SC centric show?
Good Lord, from the way everyone was talking I was expecting the dog to be barking the whole time so loudly you couldn't hear Nani, and a side conversation that was screaming into my ear. That was barely anything. Come on guys.
As I remembered TL Attack from back in BW and also the short one with TLO from when SC2 was new, it was often the player himself who came up with some handicap or instead of a handicap the player would just chose to play a strategy that was very unorthodox. TLO would go mass ghost vs zerg, spine crawler rush vs a protoss etc. Those were the moments that I loved about TL Attack. I hope we get to see more of that in the future instead of some moderator coming up with a boring handicap that the player is forced into.

Probably because some people think dogs and house cats are the same thing, they forget to walk it 1+ hour a day... gotta spend that energy somehow, right?
ok didnt incontrol already talk about it? just let it go, theres enough of the same exact post over and over again in here. The dog and chatter didnt even bother me, i thought the episode was just as good as ever and geoff and nani were hilarious.
Great except for the dog and the Anna that refused to keep quiet in the backgrund. I generally like Incontrol but I dont think he showed enough respect and interest in the main character of the show Naniwa. Diggity and Naniwa did a great job though. Love you guys

I'd move on, but you're just annoying. This TL attack was about naniwa, but it was taken over by incontrol. I normally like incontrol, but this he was simply annoying in this TL Attack and ruined it for me.
Just watched this TL attack and I must say the dog and Anna? in the background talking on Incontrol's end was completely unprofessional and ruined much of the episode for me, TL attack is normally pretty great yet this was garbage, bring back Day9 and Hotbid

The problem is the skill gap between Masters and GM in SC2 is much smaller than C/B to A in BW. Pros in BW could go crazy strats against good players (C) and still win, whereas in SC2 a GM playing a masters player has to play pretty straight up or else they'll just get rolled by a timing. The TLO video you where referring to was him playing placements, so not masters-level players like they usually get on TL attack.
Just finishing up this one. The hosting wasn't very good to be honest. Nani tried to make jokes a lot of the time, but Inc just takes it too far with the "trolling" so the jokes don't really go through. Diggity should probably keep commentating real games.
All in all I give this 8/10 just because Naniwa is awesome.
EDIT: And get a decent mic or please just be in a quite room, the chatter and barking was way too much. I know this is supposed to be relaxed and all that but it was just really unprofessional.
incontrol you must have patience of a Saint with that dog and woman making all that noise and not be bothered whatsoever. Props to ya! I couldn't stand it, probably why I'm without girl or dog.
Edit ahh just read you were a victim of circumstance. Nevermind then
