SOULKEY AND ZERO SC2 BONJWA TIME!!!
Edit: I just realized that SC2 TvP is Bio-oriented.
Light (Stars): Because of hybrid sc1/2 it will be a tough season, but if we will all try hard and achieve good results. There won't be any missing out on the post-season because of points.
Light, you are our Terran savior now!

So basically, if a player plays BW in his match, the next time he appears must be in an SC2 match and vice-versa. Still unsure if players are allowed to play twice in one day though but I doubt it because they have a minimum of 6 players in the line up. From the previous Proleague, a player could only play once in a match. Well right now one "match" consists of two best of 3 matches. I was wondering if a player plays BW, can he play SC2 on the same day. Because according to the LR, even if a player is set to play the 3rd match of BW but it wasn't necessary because the first two were already won, it counts as them being sent out. So if Flash is listed to play set 3, and this sort of situation arose, he wouldn't be able to play until the ace match. The OP is not even sure if this is correct though. The korean OP update and you can just get rid of the "same day" statement. Also, the only interviews I was interested in: 삼성전자 송병구 선수 : 바뀐 방식이 스타2 에 연습 많이해서 힘들게 연습중인데, 스타2 만 잘해서 성적 잘 나올 것 같지는 않다. 두 게임 다 잘 해서 지난 시즌 못이룬 결승 가도록 하겠다. - KT 이영호 선수 : 스타2 에서 빠져서 기본 새벽 3-4시까지 한다. 예전 스타1 처음 하던 기분이 든다. 더 좋은 경기로 찾아 뵐 수 있도록 하겠다. Stork - Because of the change, I've been practicing hard for SC2, but I don't think being good at SC2 alone will produce good scores. I'll do well at both games and make it to the finals that we missed last season. Flash - I've gotten addicted to SC2 so on average, I practice until 3-4 AM. It's like when I first started playing SC1. I'll work hard to show you all better games [than you've been seeing]. Love his work ethics.
While I take a pro-gamer talking about how good the game that is also his job is with a grain of salt, I legitimately can believe Flash enjoys SC2, if only for the novelty of being a game people can beat him in right now.

oh my this should be an exciting season <3

But i suppose that there with so much hype around seeing BW pros playing sc2, there has to be restreamers willing to restream with English commentary, am I right? So it might not be as bad as people think, but i guess only time will tell. I hope Kespa/ogn do bring in english commentary for season 2 (which is supposedly starting in oct). Moletrap, I've heard, is going to cast for OGN in the upcoming proleague. It's like they're TRYING to fail.
Then the next question is... is Korea too big to fail?

BW fans love the mechanical intensity, and SC2 fans love the rapidly evolving metagame (at least in my case). In the mixed league, the BW will have worse mechanics, and the SC2 will be uninspired. There's a feel that BW players can get more mechanics out of SC2, but SC2 only rewards micro in relatively small engagements, excepting marines vs banelings, and BW players won't think about the game enough to know how to force that to happen. BW mechanics PvP might be fun, though, because the unit counts stay low the whole game. BW lings doing sling/bling against sling/bling might also be fun, because that's something current SC2 players legit can't do. But beyond that...I'm pessimistic. BW players will be inclined to copy current SC2 players, rather than finding new builds or playstyles that let them use their mechanics more. I kind of hope to see Gumiho's "Drop ALL the things!" TvZ style done by a BW pro, though.
What? Unit counts stay low the whole game? Maybe at E Ribbon...

Flash (Rolster): I've become immersed in SC2 and play the game until 3-4 in the morning. It feels like when I first played SC1. I'll work hard so I can show everyone better games.
Hearing this makes me so happy.

@Ribbon I think we actually take the mechanics as a given, with exceptions best macro flash barracks. What we actually love about BW is this.... God of the Battlefield

wow ... i don't even know what to say

Let's be optimist guys. At least they didnt alternate into BW-SC2-BW-SC2-BW-SC2 sets. Some of us can just stop watching when set 3 ends <3

i hate to be a jerk, but I hope it fails miserabley and they go back to BW
