The 2012-2013 season of the Proleague will begin on December 8th, with SK Planet returning as the sponsor. Eight teams will be participating, including KT Rolster, Samsung Khan, SK Telecom T1, CJ Entus, STX Soul, Woongjin Stars, KeSPA Team Eight and a foreign team (unnamed). This team will be revealed at the upcoming media day on December 4th. Also, there will be English broadcasts beginning in the new season.
The season will be one year long, with 6 rounds being played. Rounds 2 and 5 will be Winners League Format (all-kill format). The regular matches will be best of seven, and the policy of revealing the players in matches 1 ~ 6 has returned. Round 1 will be played from the 8th to the 30th, while the schedule for further rounds will be determined taking expanded international tournament participation and HotS into consideration.
Two channels will broadcast this season of the Proleague, OnGameNet and SPOTV. SPOTV is an internet channel owned by IEG. The games will be broadcast four days a week, on Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. Two games will be played back to back on weekend game days.

I guess they find it logical that their own team participates in their own league, they say 8 teams participate and they list 7, so you can assume 100% that T8 will be participating. Still weird that they don't mention it explicitly lol. |

| This is very exciting! I wish though that there was someway to include the GOM teams in Proleague. Those are the worlds that I want to see collide. Although including a foreign team may be enough to hold me over for now. |

I really like that they're having six rounds this time around, and the all-kill format in rounds 2 and 5 should allow for some great shows. I both like and dislike the policy of having to reveal players 1-6 before the game. I love that teams will be rewarded for preparing specific strategies for specific players, but I dislike (or maybe that's not quite the word) what it'll do for the foreign team. No foreign team I know of has the potential to prepare as extensively and in-depth for a single match-up as the KeSPA teams, which'll put said team at a huge disadvantage.
That said, this is Proleague - they'll have to learn to prepare themselves. |

| We can hope for EG...the only other reasonable option I can think of off the top of my head is Liquid. |

| I'm thinking Liquid, since EG players are out of Korea way too much. |

it's all at yongsan
from what I read on TIG, weekdays matches are held at Sindorim, weekend ones are at Yongsan
and what does "expanded international tournament participation" mean? Does KeSPA consider the possibility of foreign team bailing out after a few rounds? |
