MBCGame to shut down? - Page 37

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.

I'm not quite sure why SC2 people are acting like this doesn't affect us at all. The TV channels were the only chance for SC2 to become as mainstream in Korea as BW was. Now that possibility is dying.

Well this is pretty nuts.
Not only no more MSL, but only one match of proleague a night...

And first thought = GG bisu... GG
WeMade FOX would be a deadly SC2 team.

Such horrible news to wake up to. Now I'll be sad the entire day.

User was warned for this post


Why just warning instead of direct ban?
I just got home, though I have read this thread from campus.
I have so many thoughts and all I could say is this is terrible....
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

Indeed. It seems to be assumed by a lot of SC2 fans that SC2 will replace Broodwar. But if the infastructure of Broodwar starts to shut down and theres still no sign of SC2 starting its own infastructure it seems more likely to me that everything will just slowly die out. Do remeber that the GSL still isn't even on Korean TV properlly, its just an internet site filming out of a spare room in a public school right on the outskirts of Seoul. In order for SC2 to make it big it was kindave assumed it would eventually work its way on to MBC Game and OGN.

We should get everyone on TL to sign some kind of petition or something.

Wowww I didn't know that. Yes, if MBCGame "dies", then it will also affect the SC2 scene in Korea. Definitely a bad move for both BW and SC2 then.

This is a big blow to eSports, apparently they think they can make more money with music.

How. how can they even.

Bastards. What kind of crappy songs can compare to the beautiful melodies of REAVAAAAA REEAVAA STOOOOOOORRRRM and PLAGUUUUUUUU.

We're approaching the end of the beginning, the end of an era, the end of the first great E-Sport: Brood War.
