Blizz probably just wants to show them how big of a international fan base there is for SC2. They'll also sell more online passes to bw fans in Korea, which will also introduce those fans to SC2 if they haven't been already. | ||

If there is something Kespa/their teams don't not wan't them to do they will be informed before departure and, of course, they will follow those rules diligently. It's part of their job. No need for this OMG KESPA IS SOO EHVUL!!! scaremongering. RIGHT. TLO NADA situation probably wont happen again. Sponsors have too much leverage over kespa now. They were willing to have tossgirl play sc2 exhibition matches in china for lg so playing some nonpro games is not out of the question. | ||

and because blizzard doesnt treat its games like that i hope they will play bw and some HotS showmatches too like peksi said. blizzard has never turned its back on one of its games the way some people are suggesting is going to happen with these 'bring them to sc2' comments | ||

And these player will anounce the changes. This would be sweet. No. The new Proleague season is starting soon. The new PL maps have already been tested and all pro-teams have conducted their intra-house ranking games to determine who makes the roster for the upcoming season opening. Effort was also officially registered as a progamer (again) yesterday. | ||

WOW is lucretive. bw is just a stone on Blizzards road compared to SC2. bw is probably most pirated game made by Blizzard or second to Diablo 2. People can't pirate SC2, so it is much easier to manage and every new fan will buy the game. | ||

Ps. Not from a sc1 elitist, I came into community because sc2 but I like watching sc1 matches more. They seem more competitive, actionpacked and rewarding skill more. | ||

They seem more competitive, actionpacked and rewarding skill more. Did you know: Lots of BW maps have "destructible rocks"? Examples from last years BW mappool: Benzene, (Neo)Beltway, Monte Cristo, Alternative. | ||
