While this may be the case, I am still saddened. Regardless, I hope the event will be excellent. While this may be the case, I am still saddened. Regardless, I hope the event will be excellent. People get too easily offended by people getting too easily offended by the word rape.

Its open as in anyone can enter, meaning no invites, its the same as MLG and IPL "Open Bracket", where you have to buy player passes to play in the open bracket.

For those of you late to the scene NASL started out saying that they had funding secured for 3 seasons minimum, so this new season must be a indicator of things going well for them or at least them seeing future success.

TBO Profile Joined September 2009 Germany 1349 Posts #16 might not be the entirely right place to ask but couldnt find it on nasl page or on liquipedia for season 3. How many players will be on the finals? Will it still be top 2 of each group + those 2 here + this playoff bracket winners which consists of top 20 behind the top 2 of each group?
