What has this to do with SC2? Seriously, these are the SC2 forums?
Other than that - it's pretty clear that LoL is taking the spot of SCBW in Korea, not SC2. Blizzard failed miserably to spread SC2 in Korea (too high prices, not enough availability in PC bangs, gameplay flaws, etc.)...
Thought I was in the LoL subforum at first (came here from Reddit) and was extremely surprised by the comments, before I realized it's the SC2 section! :D
I always thought KeSPA was already really commited to LoL (besides SC) with CJ Entus, KT Rolster, SKTT1 and now STX Soul/CTU cooperation, also they pushed OGN Champions pretty heavily. Well, here comes another step forward.
So we get tuesdays and thursdays reserved for WCS and the rest of the week reserved for LoL Proleague and Champions? Wonderful news for sc2 fans... in the sc2 forum.

Tell me more about how pro you are at LoL. Nothing on a pro level is easier.
Ofc it is compared to dota. And why are you talking about pro level? He mentioned popularity which is a fact because easy entry level.
easier entry level is something different than being an easy game. Thats why I mentioned that on a pro level no game is easy.
Of course it isn't easy at the pro level. Going up against KeSPA teams who do everything humanly possibly to outskill, out-strategize and generally outclass you is never easy. The competition that LoL now has is insanely hard and cut-throat, which makes the game at the pro level, since it's played as a competitive format, also hard.

Sorry but i don´t play LoL anymore.. Cause one day I played one game of Dota2 and knew this game is by far the better one.
And everyone is complaining about SC2 and how easy it is compared to BW. With Dota2 and LoL i feel the same..
Mhh I didn't know TL was still such a dirty place sometimes, I guess if you rustle the right jimmies anything is possible.
It usually becomes a dirty place whenever you hit that post button in the SC2 General section. Especially if you weren't supposed to post it in the SC2 General section.
Great news for LoL fans, for SC2 fans we can continue to enjoy WCS Korea, and GSTL/SC2PL. We aren't going to get more viewers than a free to play game, and that's fine.
I hope LGIM especially get's to enter PL (if it continues to exist in it's current form) and perhaps MVP too. Let GSTL just disband and give the other teams the chance to get the good players. Hopefully resulting in all good players playing just in one league.
also, I know lots of people probably addressed it, but the kespa teams may or may not be current kespa (eg samsung). The special force leagues certainly had other sponsors (tving, IT bank), could be any sponsor
They better not exclude eSF teams like MVP if they want the full legitimacy for their pro league. MVP Ozone are just way too fucking good, stomping CJ Entus 3-0 last finals. Take that KeSPA!!
