MBCGame to shut down? - Page 87

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.

JinAir Hero gogo!!!

Yeah but.. whos gonna pay for OSL then? We cant brush all the costs onto Shinhan and Korean Air.


And this describes the deeper problem - that Shinhan and Korean Air are both State owned/subsidized companies, so their sponsorship does not reflect actual private demand for sponsoring BW scene. In effect - the existance of such state entities prevents the production of the esports from being bid according to the demand schedules of private market participants, which would reflect the actual real world situation.

Korean Air is a subsidiary of the Hanjin Group, not the Korean government.

I don't see what the problem is for Jinair to own a team and sponsor 1 tournament at the same time.

Edit:
Since when was Shinhan Financial Group state owned?

Eh... I remember hearing how Korean govt did a bunch of capital injections into Korean Air, not sure about Shinhan but the central banking of korea surely implicitly subsidizes it if its big bank

It really confuses me how all of this bs is happening so tightly and so soon after the release of sc2. I suspect blizzard conspiracy. Not like kors were switching over much anyway.
Why would I play sctoo when I can play BW?

You know the LG Twins (baseball club) used to be the MBC Blue Dragons until LG bought them over. How cool would it be if LG bought over the HERO team? Highly unlikely but it's a nice thought.

So like does this mean that BW won't be broadcasted at all? or only not by MBC ? I'm not sure about what will happen 100% but still its very saddening for broodwar T.T

BW will be broadcasted, at the very minimum by OGN. Whether another channel will step in to broadcast BW as well, we shall see.

Yeah, that would pretty nice, LG is the second largest conglomerate company in SK according to my research (in comparison SK Telecom is the 4th)

Kpop killed MBCgame. This is what you get for supporting it. Now you can just watch kpop for 3 hours at night, without the boring blocks of starcraft. As if I didn't hate the stuff enough already? Jeez.
