Great news for SC2, though. Can't wait to see how things will be looking like a year from now! | ||

Because they don't want BW to die and when household names - albeit, household names that are past their prime - switch over to SC2, they become more worried about the fate of BW. | ||

My analogy would be: When a top football club has an over-the-hill star that they never field anymore, when that player finally decides to move on to some scrub club to continue playing, what is the impact to that top club? Absolutely jack shit  | ||

Bisu I would love, but even though he's fallen a bit from his peak, he's still a competitive BW player, not a glorified mascot sitting on the bench like a lot of BW pros who switch. The only way I could see Bisu switching is if he basically decides that he'll never beat Flash, and that it would be better to be a champion in SC2 than a runner up in BW. But I think he's too competitive to accept that. | ||

I mean, I know he was a god, and Zerg could sure use a Bonjwa to show them the way. But he was a known cheater. What assurance do you have that he wouldn't return to his old ways? I'd rather miss out on a brilliant player, but assure the integrity of the game, than have a brilliant player who could potentially tarnish the entire game. It'd be like if a baseball team wanted to hire Pete Rose as their manager. Sure, he was an all-time great player and a very good manager...but he bet on games. Its just not worth the risk. | ||
