YES ! at last, broodwar is out of the way, JD, flash switch nao !

Yes... because a tourney where the korean qualifiers are more prestigious than the actual event is gone, JD and Flash should give up their 200k salaries.

Anyway, as much as I enjoy watching bw, I really don't blame them. Last year wcg was pretty much a joke.

I am heart broken that it has come to this, at least the GOAT won the last ever BW WCG tournament.

hope this means that WCG has found alternative sponsors since selecting SC2 means Samsung no longer sponsors WCG


Was wondering about this as well. What does Samsung have to say about this since they are the main sponsor.

Im really happy about this. And to be perfectly honest, i am starting to enjoy SC2 games a hell of a lot lately. Its different from SC1, but thats whats good in my eyes. Good news!

geez the trolling in this thread is kind of obvious. Even people who would normally jump on anti-BW sentiments aren't falling for it.

Echoing that WCG was never as entertaining as the main leagues (well, the one iteration of it I was here for lol). It's not really that huge of a loss.

They go for low-hanging fruit, and to be honest that's what the BW community tends to be. Not that I necessarily blame you guys for it. The mods are overworked, I guess.

Really sad news, but the whole appeal of the stuff was mostly the Korean qualifiers.

WCG is crap anyways. I haven't watch many games from WCG. Its a good decision that WCG went for SC2 since there's more foreigners playing SC2... I doubt that e-Sports will be big outside korea nyways.

Is SC2 on TV on korea now??
My english is not very good.
