I'm surprised by how many people don't actually read the article and just assume they are going to be participating. "My computer can't run full textures, how will I ever play". It's a LAN event people, and quit whining about Battle.net, its a Blizzard sanctioned event, of course there is going to be a tournament build of SC2 available for LAN latency.Last edit: 2010-08-06 03:58:56 |

| The Korean BW players must be kicking themselves for not getting into the SC2 beta. |

| So is this enough money to entice some of the big name BW players/teams into SC2? How does it compare with what they pull in now? |

Big names certainly not but some unknowns or oldschool players surely

I am almost sure he will. I heard on an interview Artosis made to him that he had big plans with GOMTV but he couldnt tell us much at that moment. I guess now the secret is revealed.  I am so glad he is showing again in this big new e-sport scene that SC2 is. I would love to see him co-cast with Day9. I am sure he wont be the only english commentator anyways. There will be to much to cover. SC2 is getting bigger and bigger all over the world.
The real question is.... Will lilsusie be casting and doing interviews? <3
I hope she will. She is hot  . but maybe doing interviews and translations. For casting I´ll rather get SDM which does much better along with Nick.
lilsusie is overrated, and should def not do casting.

I think some of the concern over the full textures stems from the fact that even if you could run at full textures, not everyone likes to or wants to and also because those that can't run full textures will be at a disadvantage because they will be unable to practice playing with high graphics in order to get used to how it looks. Personally, I think players should be allowed to adjust their graphics settings to what they're comfortable with, but I can somewhat understand from a broadcast standpoint why they wouldn't allow that since they want to be showing off all the flashy graphics in their full glory should they go to a FP view. |

I agree with the posts touting the new league as Idra's chance to reach the top.
He is neck and neck with the best Korean SC2 progamers right now. Plus he already lives in Korea, bunking and practicing at a progaming house.
Putting aside B-teamers and practice partners, who I imagine have great incentives to start playing SC2, I wonder if any A-teamers will do the same. I'm excited at the possibility of solid BW players focusing all their efforts into SC2 (perhaps a gradual, but significant rise in skill cap). |
