Page 23. If I see any more BW vs SC2 debate from that point on you will get banned.

Tonight i dreamt I was trying to write up "Hwaseung" on a paper and I couldn't do it right. Wierdest dream and then I woke up to this...I can't stop worrying even in my rest now. Anyone knows if that show with the ogn commentators discussing shit while eating is still on? Last time they talked about the betting shit it cheered me up a little, liked how they are so passionate about bw.

how did this go from teams disbanding within BW and BW leagues getting shutdown to the whole RTS genre ending in Korea?

I'm hoping that since RTS is as big as it ever was, we could just have other companies make teams and collect some players. I mean if one guy (BoxeR) could do it, surely a company could as well?

Because BW is the king. Once the King falls, there will be no one to command his servants, leading to implosion of the industry.

That one guy Lim Yo Hwan has lot of fame and respect in his acheivement and definitely could have pull some strings to get things done how ever . I am not sure any pro gamer left in the bw scene has any say to company pulling out of the scene like any business .

The employer if he wants to pull out or close a department , they have the right to close at any time if they find it not pulling in their respective expectation it could be etc poor advertisement of their franchise or loss of profit .

Hence pulling out bw could mean one thing , it could be retrenchment or the guys on top who are not interested in these e sport business decides to use the money instead to go to switzerland and put in all the money in to swiz bank instead of investing in to their pro league team. I think its pretty natural movement in my opinion . I am sadden by it but I can't do anything .

Yeah that's true but I'm sure that some companies down the road will make their own SC teams...

Sigh... I never thought I would become one of the Old Guards. Still, article is hardly conclusive. Let us hope that all of this is simply evil rumour and sensational reporting.

I'm going to cry if it's STX ;_; hopefully it's airforce ace or something, even though that's unlikely...

Actually, hopefully it's just a rumour!

I hope it's not Khan, even though my favourite trinity of Stork, firebathero and Jangbi is diminishing quickly. Anyway, how can people take a 7 team league seriously? The finals playoffs would consist of what, 4 teams? This would be a huge regression to the perception of BW esports in Korea, and with this cultural stigma, BW progaming probably won't ever recover in Korea.

Okay with all the bad news Brood War has been having I had a glimmer of hope return to me when I heard Great was heading over to ACE. Something deep inside me believed that Brood War still had a lot more games to show us...
but this just makes me feel like the end is all that much closer.
this is my quote.

woongjin is a rock solid sponsor for stars,

Hwaseung also is a rather large corporation as far as I know

same for KT and SKT and Khan

which leaves STX...

Isn't STX like top5 ship making company in Korea? Anyway, I really hope they find other sponsors for those teams. It's not like it hadn't happened before. I still have hope.

Honestly, some of the teams were kind of awful. Khan, Oz, Fox, MBC, STX are the worst teams in the league and consolidating some of them or doing some structural changes could in fact strengthen the scene.

Khan lost great and Stork is slumping and January sucks. Oz seems to be getting better with Killer stepping up but they were very poor for the entire season, excluding WL. Fox is just terminally awful. MBC lost light and I would not be surprised to see some of the others quit, assuming the team doesn't disband altogether. STX is... well, they have Bogus and that's it. BogusSTX.

The remaining four teams are SKT, KT, Stars and CJ. All great teams with a lot of depth. The shitty teams need fresh blood and if teams need to merge or die to make it happen, then so be it.

Quality > quantity.
