There's no foreign scene anymore, you can't have a world cyber games if there isn't, sad to see BW go, but happy to SC2 grow

(would have liked for both of em to be there tho)

A very obvious choice to take for the future of the WCG. IMO I actually like to watch SC2 over SC1.

I wont. I love the SC scene, i love the JvF hype and the MSL/OSL finals. SC has been the most important game for esports in my view, along with perhaps Quake and CS. But that quote of yours goes both ways you know SC2 have really picked up since its release. Strategies are coming together, players are getting crazy good. It's all there infront of you, but some people just dont want to look I guess.

In the contextof the above post ?
Sad news, I like one sided games, and we had good games between koreans last year.
Plus motherfucking kolll is still playing for instance^^
The amount of trolling is pretty funny though.

People are surprised by this? Last years wcg had the worst turnout ever and that was before sc2 was released, now all the good foreigners have gone inactive or switched to SC2 so it wouldn't even be interesting watching jd/flash/whoever crushing through random B+ people in 10 minutes

the games at any tournament are more about sponsorship and money than how skillful the game is, thats why wcg has games like guitar hero and dead or alive and cell phone games at wcg, and the public interest for BW outside korea is just way too low to justify having it at the tournament. This isn't a big blow to BW anyway, most korean progamers just like to go overseas to play and meet the foreign fans since they rarely get to travel given their career and never get to compete on an international stage. I've read interviews and they've said they aren't practicing much and just playing for fun so even though WCG is the most prestigious tournament for most other games its incredibly insignificant as far as BW goes

Well that sucks, no more BW in WCG, it was pretty much the only game I watched other then CS 1.6.

I respect SC2 & BW the same

Though I like watching BW over SC2, and play SC2 or BW because its a bit more easy. That's just my thoughts.
FlaSh, Jaedong, Bisu, Free, TossGirl, Action, Stats Always BW FTW!

Evolving means coping with the demands for today. SC is not viable any longer (in a world-wide, esports way). It might be really sad, but its true.

At least the aren't blocking Blizzard games, and WCG will hopefully live.

For anyone that missed it, WCG 2010 was a joke in terms of foreigners.

Guys, BW isn't dead yet, so RIP is rather premature. It's just practically gone extinct outside Korea :/

On one hand, WCG is going to be a huge loss - it delivered awesome games every year, just last year looking at FvJ on Grand Line and Tau Cross those were 2 of the best games in all of 2010. On the other hand, the foreign scene is getting pretty weak. I'm also interested about a possible future return if bw rebounds abroad, is there any precedent in wcg for a game going away but coming back later?

Counter Strike 1.6->CS:S->CS 1.6.

It can happen if SC2 dies out.
