this is terrible I hoped that Esport can have one true game that will be played at least forever.

Right now it's unlikely, just because technique evolves so quickly, that the video game market is incredibly short term. I mean, we consider Starcraft being incredibly old, while it has been there for only 12 or 13 years.

Chess has been there for thousand of years, even a minor game like monopoly is 100 years old.

My bet is that in a couple of decades both computer industry and video games will slow down their pace and we will start to have really good games that stop being outdated because it looks old after a couple of years. But that's just a guess.

Till then, I'm afraid, esport will suck compared to circuits such as chess or regular sports.

Any idea of what it means for Jaedong ? Will he search another team ? Switch to sc2 ? Wait for sponsors ?

Imagine if Jaedong went to SKT or KT ... it would be an upset if that team ever lost a match.

If Jaedong retires from BW, I can definitely see him trying his hand at SC2 like several others who've gone before him. I just can't see him as someone that won't continue his pro-gaming career on some level or another. He's just too talented for that.

Most of his interviews talk about him wanting to devote himself to studying so I'm not seeing the logic in dedicating himself to yet another video game. While he's here and the money is good, it's solid, but his interviews suggest he (or maybe just his parents) want more for his life. I would think this is the end for JD progaming if he doesn't get picked up by another team, and maybe even the end if he's just frustrated by the process and sees this as a good time to devote himself to a career.

(I'm a big JD fan but that's why I read his interviews too )


Well he also had that recent interview saying he was going to switch when the time was right.


From what I gather of the Korean school system, it's pretty brutal. If you fall behind early, everyone will be clawing past you. It's hyper-competitive - not a good environment for a progamer (unless you're Flash, who can succeed at everything in life).

I hope along with many others that a sponsor pick up the combined teams, dropping a few of the too expensive players to free agency. I'd like the new team to be like:

Jinair Jets (main line up)

Jaedong (Ace)
Baby
Killer
Jaehoon
Tyson
Anytime
Midas

Free Agents

Sea
Hiya
Shine
Roro
Hyun
etc

You say that as if Flash is the only progamer with enough mental fortitude and determination to make it in education, it's not like Jaedong lacks those traits
and I would switch Midas with Sea haha


Haha of course Jaedong doesn't lack those traits, but for Flash I just feel a certainty I don't feel with other progamers... it's like he was born to excel (take Nada for example, who was/is struggling a bit in Uni trying to catch up).

And if you switch Midas with Sea you might as well crown the future proleague champions haha, they'll be more loaded/top-heavy than SKT or CJ (Bisu, Fanta, Best, Rain, soO < Jaedong, Sea, Baby, Killer, Jaehoon) with legitimate Flash-killers in Jaedong and Baby.

In addition, talk about Flash destroying Broodwar.
When Flash won the GomTV Starleague, GomTV stops broadcasting Broodwar.
When Flash won the WCG, WCG bans Broodwar.
When Flash won the SPL for the first time, Estro and Sparkz both disband.
When Flash won the Golden Badge, MBCGame decides to switch to a music channel.
When Flash won the SPL again defeating SKT, Wemade Fox, Hwaseung OZ, and MBCGame all disband.


Soo... Flash is killing ESPORTS?

Sad news, i hope kespa finds atleast 1 sponser for a team so it's going to be 8 teams.

Also where will JD go ? Can any pro team pay his salary, i wonder.
Maybe he will do like he said before go study, man that just makes me feel down Jeadong is why i watch broodwar still.

The bad thing is only SKT or KT will be able to afford Jaedong's salary. And if any of those teams gets him it will be even more imba for the other teams
