here you go. Mentions the original rumor, what's false and what's true. Now I don't know the status of their patching. Right now, there is a showmatch on GOM tv with SC2 being played. Maybe they play on a local server (= LAN), which could imply that the players are not visible as being online to others on the asia server, thought this might still be the case. Interesting to try anyway.

Addressing the needs of location based pro tournaments =/= LAN. According to Pearce they addressed the lack of chatroom by making matchmaking better. lol

Unless they specifically say that they're going to add LAN and that it's going to be available to everyone, I'm not trusting them and their empty promises.

I just answered a question. LAN support is a strict necessity when it comes to bigger tournaments. If they are not going to make it available for smaller tournaments, that could seriously stifle the broader adoption in a more underground culture or whatever way you want to put that. For the rest this lan issue has been discussed over and over, not feeling like repeating it here.

People need to be able to practice in LAN conditions, and not just some progamers, otherwise the gap will only grow larger due to an obvious inequality.

Sigaty confirmed that "Professional Edition" is just a rumour in the community chat. Whatever they mean by "addressing the needs of location based tournaments" is unknown. Your link is not a proof of anything. Simply saying "LAN support is a strict necessity when it comes to bigger tournaments" does not prove that that's what they're intending to implement.

If that "Professional Edition" leaks on the internet the results would be devastating for Blizzard. I highly doubt such a thing exists. For tourneys they will probably use some kind of an offline battle.net server or something.

Boycott SC2 until BW leagues are safe from Blizzard.


Yeah, I'm doing that. I don't play buying SC2 unless there are still BW leagues when the 2nd SC2 expansion is released. I'm happy I proved wrong all the "you'll buy it anyway!" crowd.

Haha, same here.

At first I was tempted to buy it because I got my ankle twisted and couldn't do sports for a while, but then I watched some sick BW progames and played some iCCup, and I was cured.

I find it hilarious that MBC was surprised at all they'd need to liscence both tournaments seperately. Sign the contract and get it over with, Kespa was broadcasting illegaly and you will/deserve to pay for it now. Blame Kespa since it IS all there fault.
