MBCGame to shut down? - Page 29

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.

So, what happens to MBCGame's rights to broadcast BW games? Are those rights for sale?

Probably someone will snap them up and do a slightly smaller "MSL" tournament.

It won't be the same though.

now the question in my mind is,will anibox take up BW?


That would be WEIRD, having GSL and...ASL? on the same channel. It's certainly possible, though.

I was more of an OSL guy (because nukethestars was :3) I feel like I missed out now, in a way I haven't really for BW in a long time.

Can we have a "MSL memories" thread, with VODs/clips of all the best MSL moments? That's probably the best way to mark the occasion.

When's the last MSL game? It should take over the site when it happens, the way the TSL3 promos did back when that was happening.

Edit: On behalf of SC2 fans everywhere, I apologize for all the dipshits in this thread. Ugh.

This is going to do all sorts of ruining to my mood for a long time.

An update from Fomos:

Basically, the management is still discussing this. They haven't made a decision whether or not to proceed with this. Even if they decide to proceed, they still have to seek the approval of the Korean Communications Commission (govt body) if they want to change the gaming channel into a music channel.


Yeah, if MBCGame wanted reactions, they definitely got them.

Looks like the Korean fans want to run over to Mullaedong LOOX HERO Center and voice their protests! I hope that the public outcries are loud enough to convince the KCC to decline the changes!


now I understand why riots occur and what its like to potentially be on the otherside of the cops..

Granted, I'm not the most active follower of BW these days (or of SC2 for that matter), but this really feels like the beginning of the end, making me really sad

Seeing as MSL beats the shit out of GSL in viewer figures, it wouldn't be much of a stretch though.

Phew that's a relief that it is still just a rumor right now and nothing is confirmed yet. Hopefully the management will not go down that road. Pretty sure a lot of Koreans are petitioning right now. Hopefully PL final in Shanghai will be phenomenal and produce staggering numbers so that there will be some rich Chinese sponsors who can enter the scene.

But the fact that they are even contemplating this is grim news indeed. Even with all the bad news previously ( match-fixing,sparkyz,retirements, disbanding of teams, I have never really contemplated that BW might go down. I thought that there are too many people who love it for BW to ever disappear. Today was the first time it really struck me that it can all really disappear.

Otherwise, it will be nice if GOMTV can pick up the MBC crews + commentators.. Do it web-based ( tv is a less popular medium nowadays anyway) so that cost can be kept low I am sure their good will will be appreciated and hopefully both games can grow in harmony. If there are rooms for football,baseball, basketball in USA, there should be more than enough room for 1 esport title.

C'mon MBC... Don't do this. I take back every bad thing I've said about your technical failures. I'd rather have an MSL final with five heater failures, and each win getting assigned randomly, than no MSL at all.

At this point, MBC Game is an essential part of Starcraft culture. How can anyone even consider such an action as a business decision?
Brood War is alive and well.

Well it seems there is still hope for it not to happen. Well i wont give up hope yet, but
the news from the bw scene, have been rather depressing lately :/

Well the best sign we could get at this moment would be, if the teams manage to re-sign
most of their players, not just the one with high salaries, but also the keep the b-teamers and
practice parters around them.
