You have basically explained why that is the case. So why is there a need for 1 sponsor, 1 team? Why can't it be "National Starcraft Association" where every game is sponsored by Shinhan, Olleh, SK Telecom, etc.? Or something similar? Why do you force companies like Hwaseung and Wemade to make huge investment of a single team rather than lesser sponsorships? My only point is that there's enough stuff to make things work. There's just not enough ingenuity. I think that's more of a problem with those specific corporations than anything else. However, my point was to not worry about problems that have no short-term solution, and just take what we can get. For example, what you say might sound good on paper, but in actuality, there might be logistical, financial, and other obstacles that prevent such a situation from materializing. | ||

LIVE This ^^ I can't stand watching Brood War because the graphics are so terrible. Feel free to call me whatever since that is my reason for not watching, but the fact of the matter is that relatively the same game exists with a 3D graphics engine. TL is donating more attention to SC2, why won't everyone else. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

By a stretch he is saying that, but what the more general message is that devoting time and money to something that is outdated and (potentially) failing is lunacy. | ||

LIVE people will watch what they enjoy. theres no rational reason people should watch pitchers take 10 mins to throw out a pitch but its been going on for 100+ years. who are you to tell people what they should be watching/supporting. | ||
