If you derail this thread to argue about SC2 vs BW in any context other than that of the interview (e.g. saying things like "colosi suck" or "all BW fans are elitist jerks!"), I will ban you for at least a week, if not more. This is your only warning. I added this page 17

You have been warned

So they weren't all ok with switching to SC2. I wonder if at some point pro gamers will make some sort of united stance and say we want to play BW, instead of just retiring like brave.

Probably not, but it needs to be said just the same.

Thank you Stork. Massive middle finger to you KeSpa and Blizz, for negotiating a bullshit deal for your own selfish ends, not even considering for one second the effect it would have on others.

"Hyung" means older brother, it's a term of respect Korean men use to address male friends who are older than them.

'bout time someone spoke up from the inside on these matters. Until now we've just been speculating "I'm sure its hard...", "I bet they...", etc.

I think this isn't just about the switch to SC2, it's also a lot about the way Kespa treats the players in general. As far as I understand it, Kespa can force the players to do what they want and will face no opposition because the players that oppose Kespa won't stay for long. The players have far too little control over what they do. All other sports where such a powerful organisation exists has a player/ team council to counter the weight of said organization. It's about time something like that is implemented into BW (and other games as well - there was actually a huge discussion in the SCII forum about the need for a players council a few months ago).

I do not agree with all the "hail stork" around.
He's saying this just now that the transition to sc2 is happening. What about all the years before? Boxer have retired a few years ago, not now.
It is rumored that Stork is not that good at Sc2 (just a rumor). If that is true, then i think stork is just worried about him and other players that indeed and sadly will get out of the scene.
I'm just trying to think what he said, don't summon a shitstorm over me.

I think almost everyone is against the hybrid format at this point except KeSPA itself. I can see their reasoning behind it (keep the BW fans interested while introducing them to SC2), but they completely disregarded the players in the process.

As sad as it is, at this point I think the best course of action for the players is to just focus purely on SC2 and try to catch up to GSL level players as quickly as possible. Practicing both games is causing overall quality to suffer and I doubt KeSPA will be willing to undo the format or revert back to BW (one can dream, though). It's stupid to handicap players at both games when their careers are dependent on being the best of the best.

This whole situation is such a mess.
