This is ridiculous.

If I had known they were doing this I would have done everything in my power to make sure that I could be there. It's like having a concert and announcing five days before it begins that "oh yea, the Rolling Stones will be there, too." Fuck.

I think most likely scenario is them just chillin' and then playing some BW showmatches. They MIGHT play some SC2 as well. I'm pretty sure Blizzard would be happy about that. However there's 2 things I don't understand:

1.- I follow both scenes, I don't see why it'd be so aggravating if they played SC2 for show. So what? I don't think it'd mean a switch or anything huge. If they actually switched it'd be sad, since there's probably some more years left to reach that point, but c'mon, it's pretty obvious they won't switch.

2.- Why are some people here making statements regarding Blizz pretty much "forcing" these players to play SC2? I don't see how Blizz can make them do anything they don't sign up for. If anything at all, it'd be more likely that KeSPA prevented them from playing SC2 than vice-versa, but since Blizz and KeSPA seem to get along now, that doesn't seem likely.

Did you post with the single thought of seeing how many rage responses you'd get then say something like omg so trolled im so good?

Educate yourself a little bit before posting in such matters. If you knew a single thing about BW you'd see a ton of flaws in your post.

Yes, but the point is that some people might not just get it. Last thing I want is for some people to get exorbitant expectations then cry out TLBS sucks. On retrospect, I guess I really shouldn't bother with such individuals though.


This IS the one reason I could understand for BW fans not being okay with watching top BW players play sc2 (that and perhaps the idea that they would get robbed of watching top BW games).

Then again, if people are silly enough to watch sc2 games from players like Bisu, JD, etc and conclude that "BW pros aren't all they are hyped up to be" that would be pretty naive and foolish because they haven't been practicing SC2. Mechanics do transfer over, but not without practice and experience.

The main reason is, as you said, that we would be robbed of epic BW games. It's like gathering Kobe, Jordan, Lebron, etc. and having them play baseball :/


but what if Kobe, Jordan, Lebron like to play baseball and wanted to mess around and have fun. i'm sure people would like to see that.

Staying on topic, I agree, I would rather see Bisu, Jaedong, Jangbi and Fantasy play BW instead of SC2 because I would like to see some top notch play in a game that they have mastered. On the other hand, I also wouldn't mind see'ing them have fun playing sc2 just for kicks.

That's too bad. I'd be happy to see them at Anaheim if they were there to play golf.


This.

My first thought was "Holy $^&*, really!". I mean, when was the last time 4 top s-class players visited America for an event that is know for being aimed at rewarding fans for being there. I mean, wow, just wow. I've never wished so hard that I could go to Blizzcon. Who cares what they're doing.

Think about it this way, when was the last time you had a chance to get any of their autographs outside of visiting Korea itself?

They will obv play BW against each other then Blizzard will force em to play SC2 matches. The only player I can see switching is Jaedong cause 1) He's teamless. 2) He alrdy said he would switch 3) He would see the huge crowds cheering for him and see the Western Fans and their devotion to SC2.

Yeah If that doesnt work well Blizzard can always slip a few benjamins into his pocket

I dunno these SC:BW pros(and im really sorry bout that) but am i the only one that think the guy in the right looks like TLO with black hairs on that pic.


LTR, Bisu, Jaedong, Jangbi, Fantasy

Left to right, First Bisu, then Jaedong aka the best most handsome hottest progamer ever, then we have Jangbi (he won the OSL this year, the first Protoss to do so after 3 years), then we have Fantasy who is a back to back osl finalist, winning his first osl final in 2010 against Stork, known for his impeccable vulture harass and his laughable bionic control.

and naah doesn't really look like TLO.


[image loading]

fcking Fantasy man, he is so much more a baller then TLO, sorry TLO.

I think Jaedong gets huge enough crowds when he reaches an OSL/MSL/PL finals, and I doubt any team is able to pay him over 200k a year

Im pretty sure Blizzard has alot of money. They shud make their own team :D. But Jaedong alrdy said he wanted to switch to SC2 cause he wants other people then just Koreans see his games. HE wants to play SC2 because its Global.
