Stop being jerks to each other please. Stop talking about seperate TL sites, BW vs SC2, or which fan base is retarded/ignorant/elitist/old/constipated.

Don't post in the thread unless you take the time to read the situation.

Don't post in the thread to let others know that they should have been banned longer.

Don't post in the thread to claim that kespa is the evil empire based on you reading the translated musing of a random Chinese blogger.

Honestly people, this is common sense. I hate the fact that I have to moderate to the lowest common denominator. Make my job easier please.

Hmmm I'm not sure how I feel about this, it sounds like the villian becoming the hero but too much involvement from KeSPA could mess things up. I doubt that they will have involvement in who each of the teams send out in proleague, I think that would be still up to the coach/team.

Anyway, this is much better than those teams and their players going to waste and it would have been very sad if many of them were forced to retire. What does it mean when it says "The rest of the players will be FA"?



Free Agent, i think. Means that they can be picked up by any team (both old and new).


Hahaha it was so obvious, I wrote that at like 7am so perhaps not so alert to what it might be. Thanks

And the problem with less teams is the fact that less people will get drafted and people will think that their chances of getting drafted is getting lower so less people will go for the rookie league.

I still wish to have 12 team proleague T_T. Or possibly more teams.

KeSPA news.... I'd probably still care about BW if KeSPA wasn't retarded. Even if they do something right, they'll still do 10 things wrong.
Hopefully the gods of BW benefit though. Give JD a home and a salary!! =P

No... KeSPA is managing ALL teams using their NEW MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. All teams will still be sponsored by their companies, however will be managed by KeSPA. Owners will still have control over the teams they own, and teams will be able to make their own decisions, however KeSPA will have the final say in all management issues. As far as I can read.

I don't really understand the hysteria about kespas decision to assume a more active role in team management. When I initially read the announcement I assumed it meant that they sought first to construct a solid financial oversight of teams so that the business side of the sport can be done with greater transparency, and second to ensure that should teams lose their sponsors in the future, that they would not have to endure the state of limbo that oz, fox and mbc hero are going through now. In those situations, kespa would be there to ensure that teams have the necessary parachutes to keep practicing and playing while kespa helps them find new sponsors.

Common sense approach imo following the corruption scandal and the disbanding of the three teams now, imo. I don't see how, given the strong leadership kespa are now showing, anyone can accuse them of not acting with the best interests of the sport in mind.

Then why doesn't Kespa hire a community manager that could directly send the correct message on the biggest SC forums to date? If they care about their image they should do something about it..not rage like kids and expect the internet to bend to their will. That will never happen.

Promote/hold/defend your team....don't expect others to do it for u. If u let the internet decide about a random news u will always get the same result. 90% of internet works around gossip...other 10% p0r##

Pretty much. I assume nothing will change for the 7 existing teams, and we'll have to see what happens for the new teams. Maybe they're doing this because none of the companies interested in sponsoring teams want to pay the entire cost of sponsoring, and KeSPA will combine their money and distribute it amongst the new teams?

I just don't see KeSPA as a group being more involved than that. I'm sure they'll hire coaches for the new teams, who will run them just as the existing teams are run. The only difference will be in player transfer, which doesn't happen very often anyway.

What we really should be asking is: Why is the number one BW site in the world has it's BW section kept alive by random poster translating a translation. Chinese stuff might not always be accurate, but it's all we have here, and the Chinese sure love BW more than TL atm.

I just hope TL is betting on the right horse here.

update/rumor from the Chinese sites:

Start of tran:

There are 2 major coporations betting for the sponsorship of the newly combined 'Dream Team'. No news if there will be a new Team 2.

According to the person who released this news, the new 'Dream Team' will have a weak P line up, but they have JD/killer/roro for zerg, By.baby Sea Mind for T, this should compensate the lack of good P. This team is going to a strong contender to titles next season.
