Really pumped to see this, great NA talent with TOP tier casters. I've missed Geoff's casting since the EG Master's Cup ended. Also happy that I can actually see some good NA players go each other, as opposed to Code B level Koreans (WCS NA).

I'm glad you got your own league to host. I've always admired your casting

Interested to see what the community opinion is on this, personally I would say It's fine if they are less than 2 days old. It can be hard to schedule all the games to be live with players from KR, AM and EU all playing in the tournament.

I'm happy about this, but I must say "Starcraft 2 League" might be the most boring, uncreative name in the history of the universe.

If EG ties their name to the league then its not really fair to the other teams in terms of exposure, might have been a sticking point. But I agree it is a pretty boring name atm

I love you Major! But really this lessens the value a lot, gotta love ATC being 100% live even more.

They started a league about 6 months ago and then cancelled it when we were almost half way through group stage making all the games we had played utterly pointless, and this one started a month or so ago :/


We did cancel the previous start of the SC2L, but not when the games were "almost halfway through." Teams at max had played two weeks worth of games, and the teams who had done that were only like 2-3 of the 8. We cancelled it out of respect to the teams because we realized we could not yet broadcast the games.



respect? lol is that what you people call respect to gamers? okay


I love that you're the one trying to call people out on respect, lol

1 week is a fair amount of time for a team league aiming to be 'the' premier team league of the western hemisphere. If it's not enough time, then sadly the league is not important enough to the teams. Longer than that and many viewers will lose interests quickly. Live is understandably hard to pull off when you can have players from 3 different continents per match, replays are much smoother to broadcast.

Alrighty. :D

It's obviously because of Millenium's earlier issues in MCSL. Objectively, Millenium is a better team than at least ROOT, coL/Dignitas and Na'Vi by far.

I don't see how you can even say that especially considering there is no way there are 8 teams that are better then them within the foreign scene.

Hmmm, they seem to be doing very well. I wasn't following that cup at all. Maybe they only have time for one team league. Personally, I am not going to throw a fit because one team didn't get invited to the party.

I don't think it's very respectful to the fans to say 6 months when it's actually 4-5 weeks.

Whether 4-5 weeks is okay is another issue entirely, though. I'm fine with it, but apparently a lot of people aren't.

Except games were in fact played 6 months ago, but they will simply be completely ignored instead of broadcasted.

I'll stick with ATC as the team league I watch because it's live and the times are perfect for Europeans.
But it is a great effort by EG, and for a NA-based league I assume this is the only possible way to pull this off and I'm very happy they decided to go through with it.

EGTL has the clear advantage in terms of casting, but in times of incredible saturation of content, I just can't get excited for VODs of (predominantly) replay-casts and I don't know when I should watch all of that anyway.

I'll click through some of the mouz matches for sure and watch some other games if there are interesting ones that catch my eye, but I don't expect that I'll follow the league closely.
