Man, I get a bit nostalgic thinking about early NASL, it was still before that time of tournament frenzy, when seeing a bunch of pro players duking it out every night was something I could hardly believe was possible. The random green screen shinanigans, Gretorp and incontrol casting, good stuff.

Thanks for all those long nights watching your streams, it was a blast.

NASL will be remembered.

if I might add:

SeatStory is in addition to HomeStory (nobody ever said otherwise)

and thank god an inactive player like Stephano loses to an up and coming player like HeroMarine. he'd be in here complaining how shitty the game would be if it was otherwise.

seriously people, at the very least get your facts straight


Hey, we might as well go 4 for 4.

How is going from self-hosting to Youtube a bad thing? Lower service costs, more reach, ad revenue on top of the GSL sponsors...

If people can remember foreigner BW fondly when players were winning mousepads and hundred dollar prize pools, I think Sc2 will be remembered just fine.

If Lindsey Sporrer was still around, NASL would have been bigger than Blizzcon.

It's really nostalgic, reading about all these great moments. (and from a time where the sc2 scene was exploding with activity!)
Thanks for all the great events, NASL!

Though I had hoped that the end would not be in between a WCS season, a bit of an awkward and undeserving end.
Still, the legacy is alive.

Of course Stephano should loose. It's just a comparison of then and now from a nostalgia point of view. Same for MLG, i remember MLG weekends were marathons of i must not sleep for me as european, anaheim, columbus... NASL before Season 1 asking players to make youtube videos saying why they want to joing the league. That stuff. Good times.

Fantastic writeup! Thanks for the trip down memory lane <3

NASL had my respect from day one based on sheer gumption. I loved the formats they chose, and the over-reaching production value until it finally paid off and everything came together in brilliant fashion.

The North American Star League will be missed. Good luck to the crew as they move on to other things.
StarCraft is the hardest, most beautiful game in the world.

Yet it turned out that the NASL was less a Mr. Bean character, and instead a bit more like Mr. McGoo (you are forgiven for missing the references).

It varied. Ones I can remember off the top of my head include LA Bite.com, Audible.com, iBuyPower, Kingston HyperX... hmm. I don't know if their attention to sponsors was good enough.

I could also be wrong.

But I'll miss NASL. They brought so much to NA productions. They join IPL in the hall of "Dammit, why?!"
They took risks, made magic, and introduced new ideas.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

So many good memories aside from the games. Chance (the dog) walking here and there randomly through the stage (that dog was so cool!) Funny moments like casters eating during comercials and suddenly getting back to air, Lauren Elise and her exercises, or that section during commercials where players manned a backhoe loader to move sand too (it was called Mining Out if I remember correctly), lovely Soe and her drawings (Soe's corner), and of course Bitterdam and their usual jokes, always a good laugh...

Man, NASL was soooo much more than a StarCraft league, it was such an entertaining show. I'm really gonna miss them, I had a wonderful time watching them.
