MBCGame to shut down? - Page 23

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.

what happened last year?


I think it was eStro disbanding, Sparkyz merging with CJ, and some coaches resigned?

Let's hope so, BW was great. But with SC2 out you can't expect it to last forever. I'm excited to see if any new talent joins GSL/SC2 later this year after contracts are up and what not.


Can you guys seriously not see the goddamn white warning at the top of the page?

Get out. All you SC2 posters need to learn when you should not post. You are just making yourselves look bad.

When one door closes another one opens.

I mean, one can hope that it only means that a new station will take MBC's place, that a new starleague will rise to continue where MSL left. Starting a completely new starleague from scratch is unlikely at this point but if a new broadcaster can take over the MSL crew, studios, equipment etc. it could be a good chance for a new station to enter the scene.

I think that this would be one of the best outcomes that could happen. Here's to hoping that something much better results from all this.


I mean it us not unlikely, is it?

From a new broadcasters view it looks like a pretty sweet deal to me. Would you take over a show with a guaranteed solid viewerbase, an experienced crew and more then 10 years in the making? If I were to invest in a show in Korea I would say that taking over the MSL would be a pretty solid deal.

Mbc closing != BW progamers moving to sc2, it's still better for them to stick

But really, losing mbc for kpop? What a shame

Korea cares even less about SC2 than BW. I hardly see how this is good for SC2.


Because now they have to care right? Okay to be honest i don't know exactly why SC2 isn't famous in Korea but i have my clue. I think that everybody will love SC2 it's just kespa being too hardcore focused on BW in my eyes.


Never the less of cause it's very sad, i love MBC!

This is very sad news for sc esports. Just gonna wait and see how this affects SC in the next couple of months but it seems as though the whole SC scene is on shakey ground.

Hm, I never got into the Starcraft scene until SC2, so what I'm getting is that MBC Game is a tv station that sponors a BW tourney and they have a team too? How bad is this to the BW scene? I am interested, not trying to troll. thanks

Wow, terrible news indeed. I knew something like this could come, but I'm still not prepared at all Sooo many memories come to my mind, can't believe there will be no more MSL (and bonjwas), no more epic enthusiastic commentaries....

I'm crossing all the fingers I got hoping for some positive news edited into the OP that this is nowhere as serious as it sounds.
