Keep the mindless hate from this thread. A well argued post is fine, frothing-at-the-mouth hate is not.

These Booths are a joke.

Whole NASL is a joke for calling themsevles as " The biggest and the best " tournament.

Shame.

EDIT

Also using player obs is like the funiest shit i ever saw.

NASL keep up the bad work, cuz u makin me smile.

Holy shit I never knew Drewbie was that tall. Otherwise interested to see how things will go, and how they deal with the usually inevitable problems.

Lots of areas to improve on thats for sure. First of all, those booths need to be larger so players can actually breath while they play. Those things are like coffins with windows. Secondly, that interview I saw was horrible... I dont think I heard anything from anyone.

On the bright side they're some good matches to be played!

i tried watching the NASL but the smart camera pan gave me a headache


I also only got sound through the right side of my headphones when listening to NASL, even though it worked on both sides for the add directly before it and for Pandora etc.... prob also helped to give me a headache.
There is no such thing as perfection, only improvement.

Wow, so much complaining.

If you dont like it.. Dont watch, is it that hard?

Personally, I feel that this obviously isnt the best tournament ever. But I watch to see good SC2 gameplay, not to be wow'd by production quality, so Im fine.

Some people that are complaining have paid for it... I don't think they want to be told to just "not watch it"

Also, some of the criticism is with the obsing qnd the sound, so even if the games are good, we can't really appreciate them as we should.

I forget people pay for this stuff. I guess i'd be pissed if I paid. But I think thats the only validation of complaining, and I doubt all the complainers are paying customers.

I just don't understand, 100k prize pool, which is several times that of MLG, but production quality is several times worse. You can't just slap a huge prize pool on an event and expect that alone to carry it. You have to scale up the production along with it. MLG has shown that you can have a phenomenal event that is carried on production quality and fan atmosphere, even if it doesn't have an absolutely huge prize pool.

Hopefully the difference between NASL season 1 and 2 will be comparable to the difference between Dallas and Columbus. We can only hope, really want this league to be awesome but....

Edit: and yes I paid my $25 for Season 1.

Such a improvement would certainly be awesome. And yea, the fact that the prize pool is so large and yet the production is lesser is somewhat puzzling. The only thing I can think of is simply experience. Namely, MLG has been around for years and NASL obviously not.

idk, but I understand your aggravation.
