Once again, I'm very upset at Gretech. I can't help but to side with OGN/MBC/KeSPA here over these stupid forced matters regarding IP and broadcasting rights. I do hope everything works out but I also do hope that Gretech/Blizz loses the war and become worse off. (which means GSL and SC2 being more unsuccessful....)

Yeah, let's all badmouth Blizzard and Gretech based on a statement by MBC, which is surely not biased in any way.

As soon as gretech issues a statement, everyone will jump on their bandwagon. Please, this is business, they want public support to be on their side.

For the last fucking time. Every company wants some dollah and each has it's own way of achieving it: Blizzard making good games, Activision having Bobby Kodick and EA releasing tons of shitty products.

Well, KeSPA's disposition probably had a lot to do with this.

I don't care who the "proverbial pie" "belongs" to. This sucks for the BW community.

I don't know what kind of stores you have in South Korea, but stores where I live never negotiate.

So I should call them dickheads?


Bartering is quite common in non Canadian/American food markets.

All companies are after money. Customers don't care about companies wanting money. What they do care, is when companies go after money when they provide nothing for the customers. Blizzard is doing nothing but creating more restrictions to television coverage for E-Sports and heightening the costs to run it. What do we get in return for all their greed? Jack shit. Fuck that.

Blizzard, stay the fuck away from E-Sports.

Who didn't see this coming? Blizzard being the greedy dicks that they are, threatning the life of BW esports.

Yeah, that will happen...

I also like how in all the Gretch/GSl/OSL/MBC threads for this, just about the only people defending these decisions have registered on TL in the last 3-4 months.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

Do you really think Blizzard's goal is to make e-sports in Jack shit?

You can do a lot better in negotiations when the seller actually wants you to keep buying. Dummies should have worked a deal long before Blizzard had shipped the game they want to replace BW.

Well, Kespa does claim to have tried for quite a few years to ask Blizzard to negotiate only to be rebuffed until SC2's release was near, while Activision Blizzard hasn't alluded to this claim in any way (to deny it, for example). But he says, she says, who knows what's really going on.

Their goal is to make as much money as fucking possible, and considering what they are doing to achieve that goal, pretty much.

What's biased about the statement? The statement is that they disagree on pricing. The bias is in people's opinions on who's fault that is.

Honsetly I don't know how they are gonna make money off of the GSL..Throwing 600k in prizes and god knows all the other expenses into a market where sc2 hasn't exploded amongst viewers seems kinda stupid..
