Also made official on the Blizzard WCS portal:
http://wcs.battle.net/sc2/en/articles/wcs-america-operator-update

I think it makes sense as NASL traditionally are a lot more experienced with day-to-day operations of Starcraft 2 broadcasting, while MLG always excelled at putting on great weekend tournament shows.

Hopefully, MLG will not be too sour about how things transpired and will re-focus with new energy on what made them big and successful in the past. If anything, they probably took a good look at DreamHack and saw that there is a market in running big independent weekend tournaments outside the new WCS system, yet be somewhat associated by awarding WCS points. I like this development and wish much success to everyone involved.

Good decision. I was so sad to see MLG's old brand gone. But looks like they are coming back. And Flash and Life will be back to MLG as well. Awesome.

I expect something completely different than MLG had, probably will be more like WCS EU or something new. One can hope!

Axeltoss and Axslav are great casters, but NASL has much better online production and a more diverse lineup of casters, often bringing in guests, which makes them more fun to watch imo. I can't wait to see the NASL studio back in action next season!

After reading the posts from Nazgul and TB, this seems like a win-win for everyone. Woohoo! :D
