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

I have no interest in the discussion you're having, but this is hilarious. How do you expect people to take anything you say seriously when you spout such awful, misinformed nonsense as this?

Be honest, and credible. That's how you get people to take you seriously.



It is honest, if you think America and Korea are equal in SC2, I got another thing coming for you my friend.




edit: I just saw your country of origin, who would've thought you were American.
No wonder you are fuming with rage.

Can anyone explain why NASL didn't have a script for pre and post battle positioning and flow?

Why aren't there minders guiding the players to positions... why aren't there pre battle meeting centre stage with casters hyping them? Why isn't there a post battle meeting in front of the casters so the PLAYERS are the focus. Why does it seem like everything is just made up on the spot?

Did no one say "ok when someone wins we will have to loser come here to shake hands and then the winner will have his interview here" and mark out on the stage where people were to stand. Why are they not escorted to and from the booths? Why are there not prepared patterns... instead of "just find your way to the booth... oh you won... looks like he is going to go shake his opponents hand...."

Simple things a coreographer could have solved and made the flow feel so much better. Hopefully they fix it tomorrow/future events.

TONS baseball, football, and hockey commentators were formal athletes. TO be absolutely honest, ALL of the good casters are pro class players but the play by play men. (i.e. TotalBiscuit/DJWheat/JP) (And even JP/DJWheat are masters caliber players)

ALSO, just about ALL of the current BW casters were former pros.... Don't spout without facts please.

NASL finals are significantly more professional and timely than any finals I've seen but GSL and TSL. By a LARGE margin. ('cept PERHAPS the last MLG, but MLG didn't have a player pool THIS stacked)



American Masters = Silver League in Korea.

Your analogy fails immensely.

That being said, Inc and Gretorp are actually horrible players, this is a paraphrase from EGIdrA.

Tastosis are far better imho, both in game and out.


No comment. I laughed so hard I ACTUALLY fell out of my chair. Trollin' has never been so satisfying to read. Thank 'ee mah racist crakuh XDDD

Pacing is horrible. I can handle a little fluff, but there's just way too much fluff here. It's like reading a high school student's essay after he tried to meet the 5 page requirement. Perhaps they should cut back on the intros and banter.

Edit
Having extra computers like in the GSL so the next set of players can set up their drivers ahead of time would help a ton.

Errr this is getting to be kind of painful to watch. Exemplifies all the issues that can happen with in person tournaments.

Was hoping that North America would be able to put on a better show, if not in the standings at least in event planning.

Hey ... maybe all this pausing is a good thing. With blizz employees there the more obvious that we need LAN the better. Probably won't do a damn thing but it can't hurt.

How can this even be considered a legitimate tournament if players are not checked up on to be on busy?

Not only can players be trolled, they could easily, EASILY have someone PM them ALL GAME!

WTF!?

That's not true at all. Master = Diamond at best.

Even though it was a short series, Select vs WhiteRa was definitely a major improvement from the casting, video/audio quality, and to the skill level.

I guess the Albanian sc2 scene is thriving so well you can actually talk.

Ladder is ladder. Korean players don't practice for 12 hours a day. Korean professionals practice for 12 hours a day.

Masters is masters is masters.
