The big question behind it all is what is Blizzard's current stance on BW/Kespa. If i knew that, i would have all the answers. | ||

I also remember a lot of talk that SC2 was a game for skilless newbies and that it would be dead a year after its last expansion came out. | ||

Flash is said to be almost unbeatable by A-teamers in his practice environment. Idra, at best, was around the 200th best progamer in Korea. | ||

I'd imagine you all still love the legends like July, Nada, Boxer etc. but I could be wrong. And what about the players like MVP or MC (iron) who were on the rise and then switched? MVP and MC where just rookies at the time, they never where "on the rise", i would not bet not even 1dollar to them against the top 40 koreans at BW. But im happy if they are doing good at SC2, if they like it fine with me. July, Nada, Boxer, are loved of course, and we never expected them to win anything at SC2. we are just happy they are happy playing again. | ||

This is true, but to further the point I'd like to say that I doubt Idra or Nony would have had much success beating an average B-teamer in a bo5. I seem to remember Artosis arranging some showmatches between eSTRO B-teamers and top foreigners, and they never ended well for the foreigners. | ||

I don't think you need to qualify it with Bo7, i doubt they could ever take a game at all, like maybe 1 out of 100 with some real imaginative cheese. Rostam at their BW peaks they were in B-teams so i think a little bit more credit than that would be fair. Nony was runner up at Courage after all, that is impressive. The skill gap in BW between the top and the lower pro's is just so huge though; SC2 is closer in that regard, you can imagine any pro's taking at least single games off any other pro's in the right situation, and sometimes even bo3's. But in BW the top guys will never lose to a B-teamer, at all (Bisu probably does). | ||

Secretly I wish they came, played in the SC2 tourney and rape everyone's faces. Not out of the realm of possibility. | ||

EDIT: I guess I could've picked a better term than "on the rise" for MVP and MC, I just wanted to provide examples that weren't total legends :p MVP was pretty good when he switched, as for the rest I don't really care, they were nonamers in BW. So I don't care how they do people such as MKP/Mc/Nestea/MMA/LiquidDong/DRG and stuff. In SC2 I only care for the legends, well and Liquiddong, cause he looks like Jaedong. | ||

Blizzard is going to announce themselves as the sponsor for Kespa's OZ/FOX/MBC replacement. One can dream. | ||

One can dream. actually i wrote to @starcraft at twitter that blizzard should sponsor a team to improve their relationship to the whole korean scene some weeks ago, but i never got an answer dont think theyd be as clever as that though. better put huge pictures of sc2 on buses and walls | ||
