I will be more than sad
I'll also have to find a new hobby as well to fill that big gap.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

There wont be huge organized leagues if proleague dies ..

but if proleague lives and finishes PL 2010-2011 then i there will be PL for SC2 and all of the good games that will be produced by any developer that can be E-sport material.

you guys think about it.

if blizzard wins, we will never have good things ever again. you wont see sc2 gonna be as big as BW now. we will just be nerds to society. there will be no growth in e-sports. because kespa can always say 'fuck it', and leave it all behind if they wanted and the ones who are going to be at the losing end are the workers and fans that made e-sport what it is now.

if kespa wins, blizzard will still be fine, their games will be advertised for free, they wont have bad P.R. to REALLY HARDCORE fans, hell, slowly but surely you'll get to see more sponsored foreign teams and they might even start their own League because an E-sport League was possible despite the overwhelming odds against the organizers(KeSPA).

if blizzard wins, its our lose

if blizzard lose, blizzard still wins, and we also win .. its a fucking WIN:WIN ..

Looks to me sc2 could become huge in korea ! It is possible that when it goes mainstream, the game could change dramatically I think.

its a possibility, this all commotion started when blizzard ridiculous demands for broadcasting rights that developed into a Grudge match between Kespa and Gretech.

all of them thinking about short term gains .. SC2 would have been big already in korea if it was handled by kespa. correct me if im wrong, but i dont see how gretech can support that shit ton of prize money in the long run. Blizzard won't fund it if they think they have already advertised enough SC2 in korea.

That will be fun to see that you completely failed in this statement in like 2 or 3 years.

AS much as I wish a better designed game than sc2 was to replace SC, I'd rather stick to sc2 and have pro gaming live on than a complete collapse.

SC2 will fail in 5 or 6 years but it will decline in 2 or 3 years without professional leagues. just like WC3.

SC2 will at least be propped up artificially for those 2-3 years while Blizzard releases the expansions and convinces sponsors to pour money into keeping the scene alive.
do you have enough resolve, hero of justice?

horrible "news" i want to watch both SC:BW and SC2, mostly because at the moment they give
2 completely different viewer aspects to me.

i watch SC:bw for the micro, the unit control that is currently not that present in SC2
i watch SC2 for the strategy and how players "out think" eachother

Yeah, because obviously that's nonexistent in BW.

Sad news to boot, just because of red tape everyones shooting at each other

Oh SCBW, i will fervently wish for your continuous existence, for making me scream like a little girl while clapping my hands like a retarded penguin whenever jaedong does some insane flank + clutch swarm that saves himself in the nick of time, Jangbi doing his trademark storms, jaehoon doing his observer recall and Flash just showing impeccable MnM micro

So much hate and venom lol.

Hope it succeeds though, it'll bring E-Sports to the world, and that's good enough for me.

The time will show who of us is right.
SC2 is just the other game. While SCBW is all about macro and micro, SC2 is much much more about game decisions, the thing which cannot be trained straight.
