I think Teams will probably ask players to pick a primary focus based on how they perform internally. So some people will practice BW predominantly and play SC2 casually and visa versa just so the team can have players who are truely reliable in one game, but also in the worst case scenario could at least hold their own or show a respectable performance in the other. I doubt its 50/50

yes, so why would flash switch to sc2, he's god in bw and he could help his team equally. or would he switch just to be the ace?


btw it is possible i missed it, but bisu didnt switch right?

Gotta say i love the format. The coaches will have a chance to truly shine in this format.
They have to plan two rounds ahead when picking the players - since the players they chose have to play the other game the next round.
So imagine that KT sends Flash to play BW first against some weak team. And next weak they get to play a stronger team and they can only send Flash for SC2 match and a SC2 ace match which we don't know if he could dominate (don't kill me Flash fans).

On the side note.
Was wondering if Ace can use GSL players that are undergoing military service as a player on loan from GSL team? - this should be possible.

Ps2. Just noticed the map pool. Big congrats to ESV but ill miss the spaceshark...

Oh cool, I guess now I get to pick a BW team to cheer for.


Pick Stars!


we should make a thread about this.....new fan recruitment thread.


That's a brilliant idea actually, a hype thread including all the teams and to let the sc2 fans decide who to cheer for.


Just tell us whose the underdog. Ace right? Okay I'll cheer for Ace.

Nono, KT is the underdog for sure. Gogo, root for KT.


Fantasy can't play Bio to save his life and SC2 is bio only, root for T1


... no? TvT is pretty much Marine-Tank nowadays. Of course with Vacs, Marauders and Vikings.

To get all the BW-only players (if there are any left at all) an idea of how a good TvT should look like at the moment:

Why did Flash go anyway? He's not the KT captain. Should have been Hoejja.

I hope the korean commentators will still be the same, they give such a unique hype to each game.

I think we will get Moletrap + Torch for the english commentary. But maybe Khaldor will consider doing it. He is a machine so few more hours a day shouldn't be a problem.

Im sorry but this will just fail horribly. Forcing the players to play 2 games at the same time? The level of play in the SCII-games - albeit being the best overall RTS-players in the world - will not hold up. And the BW side of it will also be worse due to not being able to practice enough.
Sad, just sad.
Bisu[about JD]=I was scared (laughs). The force emanating from his facial expression was so manly that I was even a little jealous.

Oh shit. I am so excited. I hope they have "some" skill in SC2 otherwise it would look so redundant. Plxplxplx make it happen. They need to kick so serious ass.

I hope we can watch them instead of the english casters ^^. I don't like most english casters and something about koreans casting makes it feel SO much more exciting.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Geez...I can't even start on how I feel about this....................

My main concern about this forcing a player to play BW and next week SC2 and then go back etc, is that there is still an OSL going. I said in the OSL thread that I was worried about the drop in quality when players were practicing for both games but back then, I thought teams could decide whether a player plays one thing or the other. Now with a rule to make them play both games, my hopes for the OSL quality have fallen.

And just like last season, they are keeping the middle of the afternoon for the games so I cant watch the last BW games ever live (and this is a personal thing, so Im not whining just stating my opinion, but I dont enjoy stuff as much if it isn't live and that was part of the reason why this year's first season was a disappointment for me ).

Overall, to me, there nothing good about this piece of news
