Can anyone give a more in-depth summary/translation of the articles in these three links?
The first link's article is recent, as it seems to have been released on the 16th. The articles in the other two links are a few days older, however. |

Interesting.
Them not recruiting current SC2 pros is actually a godsend for the current teams in Korea. If they were recruiting the best players, you better believe all the top players would be poached and the current SC2 teams would die.
This is actually a great thing for GOMTV/GSL/GSTL. This will just increase the popularity of SC2 in Korea. Koreans won't have anything else to watch other than GOMTV stuff so it should boost their numbers. |

Not surprised, not upset, it was bound to happen.
I look forward to all the delusional posts regarding the BW scene in the near future.Last edit: 2012-04-16 15:15:02 |

To all you "meh, bound to happen"-types... f* you. BW has been such a huge part of my life, I can't just be apathetic to this.
If they don't keep BW going, the term "ESPORTS" is fundamentally flawed and will never truly exist. You don't just "scrap" a true sport. True sports have one thing in common: great history. Proleague is a part of that enormous and invaluable history that belongs to gaming, and if it trashes BW, then we no longer have esports. |

It has been for mine as well, and I know that sc2 will NEVER be a better game, but be real here, BW has been nothing outside of korea for years, its dwindling fast in korea. Sc2 is getting huge, and it honestly isn't that bad. I guess I could say sc2 has actually been a bigger deal for me, considering all the awesome friends I've made at uni because of it. Its been 12 years dude, I wish I got into BW back in 2003 or something (don't be fooled by 2011 join date first account was 2008), but that wasn't the case, so I will choose to embrace sc2. If it was up to me sc2 would never have come out, and thats the difference between me and the guy below me who probably doesn't know a single thing about bw and its history but says OMG FLASH SC2 PLS
And "esports" is a silly word and I wish it didn't exist.

Yes.. I really don't understand what this is. People keep throwing it all around and kept on pushing the idea that BW needs to die for the betterment of this so called 'esports'. lol |

No, you just need to accept the fact that BW will be gone, finally. I highly doubt that BW had been a bigger part of your life than mine, but what's done is done.
Either embrace SC2 or make it the end of being a progaming spectator. I am the latter. |

| Typical bullshit from trash reporting companies. (Ilgan sports? Really?) The article says "Korean fans have begun to be more accepting of Starcraft 2 blahblahblah" when it's clear that absolutely noone thinks this is a good idea. Then again, this means that Kespa is trying to pressure e-sports news sources to write pro-SC2 articles, so the switch is probably bound to happen. |

| Saddest day of my life. Cant believe SC2 is "succeeding" the great BW. Sc2 imo is not a worthy successor, not in the least. |
