Going to get worse and worse so Starcraft 2 will instantly have younger talent playing it simply because of the graphics. If I was a kid now 10-14 years old I would pick Starcraft 2 over starcraft simply because one it is easier to pick up, and also two because the graphics are isntantly a lot better!!! What if you were a kid now 10-14 years old that grew up watching SCBW on TV? SCBW is a cultural symbol. And a few months back, wasn't there some chart that showed the top 15 games played in PC Bangs in Korea, and SCBW was still the 5th most played game and SC2 was like 13th? Also, I really don't think KeSPA has any plans of abandoning SCBW any time soon, seeing as how they're trying to spread it further by holding ProLeague finals in Shanghai. | ||

At MLG you can pick random, see if you get the right race and pause the game yourself if you don't and demand a restart. Also, you can talk. Like Huk did. All very bad for the integrity of the game. In Korea this was realized years ago so they have strict rules about talking. If you accidentally type you break the rule. If you accidentally leave the game, you lost. These people are progamers. Why can't they request a pause properly? These rules were all known and no one complained about them. But then some fan favorite (Backho, haha) stupidly breaks the rule and instead of getting angry at Backho, people get angry at Kespa. Kespa is Korean esports. They are the teams, the broadcasters and the referees. If there wasn't a Kespa, Kespa would be founded tomorrow. Kespa is the best thing that can happen to SC2, so please let Blizzard stay incompetent and try to fight Kespa. With SC2 under Kespa, Sc2 actually has a chance to outcompete SC BW and cause SC BW to shut down. SC BW lasted several years more because of Blizzard incompetence. As a BW fan I can only hope this lasts longer. If Gomtv no longer has the exclusive rights to SC2, they will quickly disappear, which is a good thing. Gomtv has only done damage to Korean esports. Really, paid streams in some crazy internet tv program. I tried to follow some SC2 progaming, but Gomtv prevented me from doing so. Blizzard killed my appetite to play SC2 by making it too easy and cheesy. Gomtv killed my SC2 appetite for progaming by making it impossible to follow. | ||

however its way too early to abandon bw while the interest still is high. however i can see that kespa will slowly move towards sc2 with first running two leagues and then eventually cut bw when the sc2 interest is big enough. | ||

So everything Kespa does is great and everything Blizzard/GOM does is worthless. Got it! | ||
