EPTBlizzard want the korean BW scene to die and want SC2 to grow more and more... there's not any BW games at blizzcon anymore. I can't understand why they would want to bring them at blizzcon just for fun.

Source: DES Instead of a lengthy translation, I'll give you the one important part: "Jaedong feels light-hearted and jovial about this trip because he doesn't have to play any scheduled games." Scheduled games / broadcasted games / official games interchangeable, depending on how you read it, but the point is that he doesn't expect to play any matches there. So there you go people. In the words of Jaedong and according to DES, no scheduled matches for Jaedong (and probably the other three as well). Full-time celebrity audience and fan meeting? =D That's.... weird O.o Still hoping for a showmatch or two  | ||

The South Korean government can't afford to decommission its most powerful asset, not even for a short while, not even for blizzard. | ||

"Fortunately, StarCraft 2 isn’t to be the only game on show at Blizzcon. We’ve also received news that Blizzard has invited Brood War progamers to play a series of exhibition matches during the event. Here then, we might have an opportunity to introduce some new blood, to give someone a chance to reach the same prodigious heights as past invitees? Brood War Exhibition Match Players: Bisu, Jaedong, Jangbi and Fantasy. " So they are playing? | ||

I can't understand why they would want to bring them at blizzcon just for fun. BW in Korea >> SC2 in Korea > SC2 in the world... So.. how will they show them "how big the SC2 scene actually is in the west"...? | ||

I think we know whats going to happen. Showmatches mainly. Where are you finding these "starcraft" time slots on the calendar? I'm looking through the official schedule for Blizzcon, and all I can find are "Starcraft II Match #." Plus, there was that article in this thread a page back saying that Jaedong isn't expecting any scheduled matches. Unless this is all a conspiracy to confuse everyone into being confused. | ||
