Keep any SC2 vs BW comments out of this thread. This is a thread about Brood War and Esports (Tekken Crash, Special Forces, etc) in general. If you discuss what this means for ESPORTS be sensitive about it.

GomTV should start a SC:BW tournament in response to this and have English commentators. If a little effort was put into the foreign community SC:BW would get a lot more registered/paying viewers.

Goddamn, I sure hope that if it is indeed going to be the last MSL, that it becomes the biggest spectacle they can make it.

I'm personally hoping that Gomtv steps in and purchase all the rights of MBC Game and all it's leagues, production and organization. But I'm wondering if it's a possibility or just dream thinking on my half.

BW is kind of ugly to the untrained eye, it would be a hard sell to an audience that knows nothing about it.

No. More like Gom doesn't have the finances to do so.

nor would it want to rofl. Why help out the game that's most directly competing with the one its heavily invested too ;l

That and Gom probably isn't the biggest fan of kespa after they destroyed their BW tournament in 2009. I can't imagine that they would want to get in bed with the same people who cut them down just a couple of years ago.

For how long now has MBC broadcasted games?

10 years.


10 years is quite a stretch.I don't know of 1 pure gamer channel in the west that has been alive for more than 1 year...
I know BW is big in Korea but a decade of a pure gaming dedicated channel is a miracle in itself.
I never watched it but would be sad to see it turning into a Kpop channel.

If only there was some multi-billionaire out there who has a secret love of eSports and in reaction to seeing their favorite game channel in danger, goes out and buys MBCGame from MBC Plus Media and saves the MSL...

*Sigh* I'm thinking crazy thoughts now.

I want to be optimistic... but here's a possible outcome coming up to my mind:

+ Show Spoiler +
1. OGN stands up and takes on the broadcasting of games
2. Other teams' sponsors, seeing the BW scene as nearly dead, decide to disband their teams
3. Other players seeing that, afraid of losing their own jobs, start planning for retirement
4. In the end, the whole BW scene is more dead than alive


The process might differ, but in the end it will be the end of BW scene. No matter how you look, this is a very discouraging news.

If this happens, I think that many Korean progamers would make the switch into Starcraft II. Hell.... we could even see Flash become the first legitimate SC2 bonjwa.

uhh....what? sc2 is only getting bigger. BW dying won't affect sc2 at all. In fact it might make it bigger if big names in BW switch over.

This is so, so sad T.T.

+ Show Spoiler +
Also why put this in community news, every time BW news goes here its filled with sc2 turds (I'm one myself but appreciate BW) going FLASH TO SC2??? BW DEAD NOW??? SC2>BW?? Its so goddamn annoying. The "community" is pretty much sc2 now, let this stuff go in BW section where people won't post stupid garbage.
