I'm going to assume they are inviting them to attract more people into buying the online ticket thing. SC2 is of course going to be a big part of Blizzcon this year, so they will check out the "scene" and get them to play some showmatches with each other (and maybe against some of the korean SC2 players attending?) Makes sense to me. Edit: This would make a good topic for discussion on SotG this week! But the tournament stream is free. It does not make any possible sense. In my opinion is a band aid solution to keep up the "we are friends with kespa" thing going on. Or maybe they checked out the osl finals broadcast numbers and want something of that pie. | ||

Definitely do not want anybody to switch (not like they will.. each of them making too much to be bribed), but I can't deny that I am not a little curious to see how these gods will fair against the best sc2 players / ex mediocre bw pros. Granted the games would probably be shit as JD/Bisu/Fantasy/Jangbi probably hasn't played too much SC2. Would love to see a BW kick back too, where the sc2 guys play their roots once again (like boxer huk!).. Hell, I just wanna see more starcraft! Tired of waiting for the new proleague season to start. Also: LOL at all the EG posts... Hahahha never gonna happen : ] | ||

Believe it or not, bw pros are allowed to play other games without becoming professional players of them. | ||

I'm all for Bisu vs JD SC2 show match. Hopefully this will be the catalyst for quickening the unification between the old fans and new fans. :D | ||

Also, this could be either a: A really epic event with partial merge of SC/SC2 (which i do approve of or b: Mass switch to SC2. If that happens im going to cry my heart out | ||

It would feel like when WCG took BW off the list of games. I don't think there will be too many shenanigans. BW pros will be there to do fun BW matches. I wonder if there are any foreigner BW players good enough to invite tho, that's the real question. I don't like a lot of things Blizzard has done in the last 2 years, but I don't want them to abandon Brood War. I want there to be some Brood War fans up high in Blizzard power who can make decisions that have some moral value, instead of being purely directed at making the most money possible. Go back to principles of longevity and respect for the people who play their games. | ||

But if they do a few bw shomatches (with such a line up, they would be stupid not to do it...) plus a few SC2 fun games between them and a guy with TLO playstyle, I'm perfectly happy with it. Plus Jaedong singing and dancing obviously. What else ? | ||

If they are forced to play SC2 a game they don't play professional and practice it's just going to be a joke (ala Yellow/Boxer) all over again. | ||
