didn't renew my sub for season 2, maybe maybe maybe watched 1-2 total games this season.
I'm just not feeling NASL I don't know why. Last season it seemed like a choir to have to watch it everynight because I paid for it. I got really disinterested in how I watched all the games last season, watched the players grow, etc then some random guy that I never heard of at the time (puma) comes from the open bracket and wins the 50k.
I thought it was really wrong for players that had to be consistent for WEEKS offline/online event for someone to just come from an online tournament to take it all.
oh well I might turn in and watch the finals not sure hope it goes well..

I hate to admit this, but my first thought was, "will Lindsey Sporrer be present?" I was really excited for NASL and loved the season 1 finals, but the Korean pullout and the general esports explosion simply dropped NASL from my radar. I hope Idra or Jinro can still make the playoffs.

On the same page as you buddy. Watched week one and two of S1, and some of the finals. Haven't seen a single NASL s2 game. It's free SC2 stream overload, and most of those streams have better Res.

Well, the stream is free in 1080p for this week and next, so you can catch up a little!
|
Looking at current standings I am thinking:
Div 1
Hero
Demuslim
Div 2
HuK
Rain
Div 3
Morrow
Idra
Div 4
Strelok
Sen
Div 5
Dimaga
Puma
Decent player list and should definitely watch the finals.
Some of the players below them that are in contention are a chance (Hasu, Ret / Glade, Brat_ok) but I doubt the divisions will move that much.
edit: I'd also like to echo the sentiments of others that I didn't pay for a pass this season. I was all for supporting this but only being able to watch VoDs in 1080p sucks if you live in Australia (actually have to wait about 1 hr for a game to buffer). Why isn't multiple resolutions available for selection with VoDs? Also why is the free stream such low quality? It's like one extreme to another...
Also, please tell Orb to slow down with his talking, he tries to get too much information in. Play-by-play talking fast can be fantastic but when it is like analysis of the game at uber speed it's a bit :/
Sorry for the criticism's, hope they are at least somewhat constructive.

I really like the stage set up. More seats closer to the screen is always a good thing. I was waiting for a tournament to do this.
|
Bo5 ro16, nice 
Although I don't follow much the regular season, I will not be missing the grand finals!
|
What are the other benefits for the Premium Pass besides front seats?
|
very excited for this. NASL 1 had many great games for the finals... Barely watched any of the regular season as they all broadcasted when i was in school...
and i hope that the seeding for the finals change because it was terrible to see ret get mauled by Puma in RO 16... They should have seeding there or implement some form of group play. They should also do more hyping of the regular season IMO
Perhaps team up with TL for them to hype up matches. Look at huge matches such as the TSL and even Jinro vs Idra(i know that this is all liquid related... Just an idea) those were so hyped up, so many people watched, Hopefully NASL can improve and continue to provide great games for us.

Why such a huge difference? :S
What are you talking about. That's a good distribution.

Looking decent. I hope the casters will be amazing, so looking forward to that.. i'm skeptical after the last finals, but i hope you prove me wrong NASL.

Isn't DeMusliM also already qualified? He's 5-1 in his group and Sheth is in 3rd place with 3-3. It's impossible for DeMusliM to fall to 3rd place.

Yes. DeMuslim clinched his spot this week. He's been added to the list.
It's exciting to see the player list unravel.

Nah, Hasu is goin 5-2. and Puma is playing QXC and dimaga. pretty tough. that's why asked about the tie breaking rules earlier. and didn't get an answer so again: what happens e.g. if hasu, qxc and puma all end up 5-2? will hasu be through because he defeated both of them? will overall games count? tie breaking matches? e: also, why did hasu looose against tt1  he would've been through 6-1
Regarding Tiebreaks.
We first go by record in the season (eg. 5-2), and then by overall game win vs loss. If there are still ties after that, we will resolve them by having Tie Breaker games. These will be broadcasted on a single day before the Playoffs.

Didn't watch any NASL this season, but finals were good last time, I'll tune in again.
