I don't like to write bad things about casters since it's entirely subjective but I was always more sensitive to the voice of casters than their game knowledge and sadly, much like HD/CatsPajamas in IPL, i didn't like the voice of Gretorp, no matter how good his actual casting or game knowledge is, so after season 1, where iNControl talked enough to mitigate my problem with Gretorps voice, i didn't watch NASL anymore.

This change might get me to watch it again.

BitterdaM FIGH...uhm... CASTING!

Wow that's amazing, Rotterdam is like the best commentator in existence for SC2 and Mrbitter is pretty good when he's not being too biased / whiny in the games as well!

NASTL becoming a "legit" league. I love it.
I had a good night of sleep.

Well this might just get me back to watching NASL, but please, try to not have the finals on european monday morning, really any other time is fine. I can understand you want them on USA primetime, but have them on a saturday then so we can watch sunday morning.

iirc they do eu rebroadcasts


I know :/ I hate the term "rebroadcast"
It's not live, it's more like watching the GSL vods the day after.

Finals are not only about watching on your own, it's the community feeling too, knowing 10000s of nerds are watching this together with you. The live thread discussions here on TL etc. Cheering in the players fanclubs when they won.

I hope they really reconsider that re-broadcasting sillyness and put vods up faster instead.
And have the finals on a time that suits most watchers.

I really want to support Nasl, but when they finals were on a monday morning and I couldn't watch them I was quite dissapointed. They lost me as a customer there and frankly I don't want that at all. I want to pay them and watch their finals live, but if I can't I have to skip.

Good move for everyone involved I think, nice one!

This is awesome - live casting as well as more $$ - great plan to offer $$ on each match (if I'm reading this correctly). I watched lots of Season 1 and started Season 2 but honestly I was having a problem finding good matches among the sheer volume of games (I'm a Dad with a 3 year old so my SC2 time is limited). The changes look like they can amplify the per-match excitement.
Never give up and good luck will find you.

i didnt watch a single game of s2, but with koreans getting back, i definately will watch NASL season 3.

especially now, Bitter and Rotterdam are my second fav casters...

edit: fro-guy was pretty decent at MLG

I don't know why, but NASL is not interesting to me at all. They have great players and now they also have good casters, but I don't know. Just seems like uninteresting besides the finals. Will obvioulsy still watch some of the games, but most likely very little amount.

Edit: Might be, because I prefer leagues with Koreans, because I don't think of nearly non-Korean leagues as the highest competition, but thats up to anyone to decide on their own.

I find the league format to be boring and pointless. When you have a 10 player group the game gets so much less fun to watch since they dont get eliminated as fast.


I agree. I like the format of big groupplay or 'leagues' very much. It is the most fair system.
But in NASL it doesnt have much importance. Way too many get into the playoffs. Last season Ret (5-2 record) and Vibe (2-5) both were in playoffs.
Then we have the final which is single elimination (at least Bo5 now), but thats still a lot more luck-dependend and disappointing after having such a long groupstage.

I really don't get all the Gretorp casting hate. Sure, in season 1 he was really bad, but he has improved his casting a lot and is one of the better casters right now imo. Never the less, adding Bitterdam and Frodan is a great move and will probably add a lot of quality to NASL.

same here. i was so unimpressed after season 1 that i stopped watching nasl entirely. Adding bitter and especially rotti however is a genius move to win fans of sc2 like me back. Hope they've gotten better.
Oh and i hated gretorps casting so much that i doubt he was able to change it enough for me to start liking it. Guess tastes differ (is that correct english?^^) nothing personal.

Not very surprising given that they left ESL, but it's great news for NASL at least

Rest assured that we have exhaustively studied the financials from every angle. That is absolutely not the best way to make money by a long shot.
