Oh god yes!

Let's face it, Boxer's BW career is dead. He is little more than a coach and a symbol.

But in SCII, he can make some real difference. The E-sport progaming scene sorely lacks someone of Boxer's maturity, intelligence, and charisma. Face it, the current BW pro-scene is the definition of the battle of the nerds, with every year's recruits looking younger and nerdier.

I suspect it would be horribly one-sided.

gretech/blizz need to get on this asap. These guys switching over is what is gonna tip the balance of negotiations between the stupid egos/pride/moneywhoring of kespa/gretech/blizz.

Now we'll see just how high the skill ceiling is for SC2 (well, that is, until active A/S class progamers do the switch).

Why is that? Besides Boxer, the other two dont pull that much weight, and thats assuming Boxer's leave would be significant for either of the two parties.
Through high and low, bisu boy, through high and low.

Assuming BW is around for another few years (at least), I want Flash to take another few leagues (5 OSLs for the first platinum mouse, and at least 3 MSLs), and then announce that he is re-signing as protoss (his offrace) for the following year. With his maphack gamesense and control, he could be the savior protoss have been looking for all these years.

haha if this does happen it really would kill BW

I would love seeing Flash revolutionize PvZ/Pvt and having all the tosses follow in his lead. Seeing Zs and Ts unite in their shouts of protoss imba would complete the game
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

lol since SCII isnt so APM intensive and generally easier to play, Boxer/Nada can totally dominate the pro scene!

Is it just me, or does anyone else think it's kind of unlikely that they'll do very much in SC2? I dunno, SC2 is certainly easier but they've all been slumping and aside from NaDa haven't been playing at a very high level of Brood War for a little while.

Who knows, maybe they'll prove me wrong but I kind of want them to fail, I feel like if they succeed then current pro players will start moving to SC2 as well and I'm really not ready for Brood War and especially Proleague to die.

Any of the old pro broodwar players that aren't going to play sc1, should absolutely contribute their talents towards the sc2 community. I think this is fantastic news. I really hope this sort of thing happens to strengthen the professional sc2 scene.

If it is true, I don't know weather if I find it depressing...or just not even able to describe. Way to go Kespa, seriously.
