Sounds like you've made some good improvements. Most big tournaments out there are offering free VODs so it's nice to see you will as well.

promising big things and not delivering has been a pretty standard NASL trend


I don't get what we've promised and not delivered? The only thing we promised was a $100,000 league - which we delivered.

There's a huge difference between not living up to expectations and failing to deliver something.



I'm sure you'll "deliver."

But what kind of shape will it come in?


Aren't you a TL writer or something like that? If so, learn some professionalism and then learn how to talk to people. I realize you're just expressing your opinion, but seriously you need to find a way to do that without sounding like a huge dick. If I'm wrong and you don't represent this website in any way then disregard that. Random trolls are random trolls but I'm surprised to hear TL staff talk like that to a representative of a major league like the NASL. I expect better from TL.

But anyway, I think the changes will definitely make the league better so props to NASL. Don't let the assholes get you down.

Several questions:

1. Will there be any revisions to the 2012 NASL format? I find the regular season to be quite hard to follow, way too long, in the end meaningless when it comes to who is actually going to win the tournament and honestly quite boring.

2. Will VODs from the previous seasons be made available for free on top of the upcoming seasons?

3. Will audio issues be fixed?]

4. Will Gretorp be back in Season 3?

Also, I think that one of the things that makes a league successful is the hype that surrounds its games.

Take the NFL, there are multiple shows on multiple channels that analyze the games that were just played. On ESPN you have Sportscenter, the Blitz, Sunday Night Countdown, NFL Primetime etc. Then you have shows that predict and analyze games that are upcoming for the following Sunday. They transition from highlights of last weeks games to content which analyzes next weeks games around the middle of the week.

I really think you guys should put together some content like that. The NFL has a 17 week regular season before the playoffs, but it works because they get to hype the regular season games so much. IMO you guys should set up two shows. Have some casters analyze highlights from the big games in one of the shows, and in the other one, have the casters do predictions and talk about the upcoming games. You can show clips of when the players have played before, or when they've played a certain match up. Scheduling isn't as obvious for you guys since most of the games aren't all played on one day, but I'm sure there's a way to work it out.

Maybe given your game schedule it would be better to do one show, but have highlights first, and then predictions of tomorrow's games or whatever.

I don't think that any other league really does that. SOTG is vaguely similar but it's more of a talk show. But I think this would give you guys a good shot at both making your regular season more exciting and giving you a reason to create more content (which, by the way, you can do all by using content you already have).

I don't think NASL gets it. Tournaments like Dreamhack and IPL provide free HD, and not so coincidentally, those are the ones people love to watch.
MLG is ok because the 480p isnt too horrid, but still.

Quality is favored indeed, wish we could have HD but then again I guess they can't afford it. Ads are there for a reason.
Gonna try see if Nasl have improved from last time, gonna be a challenge

how mod are you bro?
Like living up to being a TL writer means every comment you leave is polite.
I think with NASL we are wise to have a wait and see attitude.
I had a good time watching the finals, I hope I enjoy more content in the future.

Finally jeez, I wanted to support you guys so much but my brain just would not let me logically do it. Now with these changes you'll see me as a supporter in the future. Now just fire the sound&camera guy and I'll subscribe for life.

I don't mind accomdating some of the koreans, but they need to EARN IT. Just because someone who plays starcraft is a certain nationality doesn't mean they should automatically get thousands of dollars worth of treatment. Players like MVP, Nestea, Boxer, NaDa, aka players who are legends or on top of the game, yeah sure. But not just your regular korean who happens to qualify for code A every now and then (im not bashing Code A it is a mighty achievement as a starcraft player). Great changes NASL I'm all for it!

Honestly, I don't mind that Korean teams are not participating in the NASL. Obviously they pretty much own every tournament there in so, I like that fact that I can watch a high level tournament with only foreigner's duking it out.

Great great! I love NASL and it's great to see their commitment to esports. Maybe a split subscription model? Because the sum at one go is still a bit too steep for many. Maybe split it into separate premium tickets for play-offs, finals, etc.

Well, I think the NASL should feature a lot of custom maps by the community. This would really separate them from the pack, instaed of tryning to play catch-up.

That by your own definition makes it not high level.

Yea exactly. No disrespect to the players, they are obviously pretty good, but when I know for a fact the korean teams are a bar higher than 99% of the players in NASL...why would I watch it? I want to see the best players compete...NASL is not that.

I think they said SC2, Tribes and HoN. Slightly off-topic, butTribes is really fun, I've put in a lot of hours over the holidays and you should try it if you haven't yet. In terms of balance and spectator friendliness it is not in a great place right now imo, but it is still in beta, plenty of time to change things.
