It's been shown before, and ya it's fucking mind blowing how professional the video is. You don't need flashy shit or spectacular graphics, just look how simple and clean the video is. All the other leagues should just drop what they are doing and take some learning lessons from this video.

Dat was badass

hopefully brings more attention the league, especially if everything can match that production quality.

That was really good. Dang. Chinese tournaments need more attention I think.

pretty slick promo vid (probably the best for any SC2 tourney); they don't seem to have any (well) known players though...

XiGua, MacSed, F91, Comm, LoveCD?

YEah, NSL is one of the tournaments I've been following lately, and there are som absolutely awesome games being played. Production is badass as well.

I don't understand how some tournaments don't realize that intro videos and hype packages are priceless. They are easy ways to give your players some character, make them look cool, and hype people up for the upcoming match and/or show. The main reason I even started watching Brood War was because of the old MSL/OSL videos that made these skinny, sometimes robot-like teenagers look like bad asses in the openings.

Just imagine what would happen if they had a much better / more popular player pool to show off.

That's the thing, maybe one or two of these players at best is fringe Code A level, but it doesn't matter. This video makes them look just as bad ass as a Mvp or Flash.

Tournaments, do more video packages and intro videos. You can write a narrative and give character to almost any player if you want to.

Good old days... ;_;

Imagine how much better our western tournaments would be if they did something like this. Well.. when I say "like this" I don't necessarily mean copying the older ones from OSL/MSL or even their style of intro (although I would fucking kill to see something in the vein of EVER OSL 2007+ Show Spoiler +

) but at least have *something*. It helps so much with creating and telling a story, if you do it right. :/

edit: lol failed copy paste
