Didn't KeSPA already hinted towards 'expanding to SC2' through some of the "negotiation table" articles in the past?

I guess I was either dreaming or just reading dailygame articles without translating.

I'm just going to say this,BW is still going to be the premier esports league and the higest priority of kespa,SC2 will probably be a secondary league like special forces.

Interesting. Wonder what blizzard thinks of all this, as they have had their licensing differences in the past...

WTF, Kespa why do you have to betray us like this

SC1 and SC2 will be run side by side. Just like how Kespa runs a whole bunch of leagues/competitions for other games. People need to actually read the OP before jumping to conclusions.

I'm just going to make a few comments before this thread becomes totally unreadable in a few hours time...

This is not something unexpected, given the trend in recent years of Kespa dabbling in every game that might have an audience in Korea.


But they are upgrading PCs and selling lan equipment....

Oh God christ. Community News again?
It'd be interesting to see whether interest on SC2 will be raised by it's new earned legitimacy. I guess they had to fill the empty timespots (assuming new format will be 1 game per week) with something :p

Woah this is huge, that they're even considering it.

Can't wait to see the top of BW teams and players switch over.

Proleague belongs to Brood War >:o

Wrong. It's both BW and Special Force.

Though SF Proleague ain't as popular or recognized. Still official Proleague.

truth is out there

incredible if true... but it would be folly to make a switch in the middle of the proleague... would be better to shoot for '12-'13 while getting a SC2 OSL started.

also, perhaps we could be looking at a merger?? kind of like the NFL merger in pro football in america where two separate leagues melded into one. Have the current BW teams for one league and the GSTL teams another or mix them in some appropriate manner and start running a year long sc2 proleague.

You guys know that GOM owns every right of SC2 league in korea for two more years, right? They won't do anything stupid like killing their own GSL with permitting proleague.

Sounds awesome. They should definately make peace somehow between kespa and blizz, feels it hurts both sides if sc2 won't grow in Korea.

Nice!
But yeah being a Korean gamer is very imba. If you're a non-korean gamer you have to balance your game playing with earning money and your real life. If you're Korean you just sit around playing games all day eating 2 cent ramyun and becoming gosu.

oh my, this is huge for the korean scene! If gom tries to block this from happening i will be really distraught, the one thing korean needs right now is more attention to sc2 to attract more sponsors.
