The can't play for any other team and civilians can't join Ace. The influx of players and teams doesn't affect them. | ||

Another sad day and another bullet to the chest how much more can it/we take? Exactly my thoughts. Bisu and Jaedong is same age, Stork slightly older. We could get ultimate team, ACE team. | ||

I wonder, if we there will ever be a game again, that is so accepted and huge in one country, that the military allows players to form a team. How i will miss Broodwar... T_T | ||

The BW is formally dead already. It was dead from the very moment they announced the hybrid league The end of BW is the most disgusting testament of money making, mass consumerism and human greed in one uniform incarnation in this gone mad world. | ||

I wouldn't be surprised to see 2-3 more teams disband in the next few months,. Since korean scene is oversaturated with teams right now its natural that some of them disband especially when the Kespa teams started to play SC2. | ||

It was dead from the very moment they announced the hybrid league It's been dead for years. Once MBCGame turned K-Pop, everything else was only a matter of time.

It's war between GSL and KeSPA. Only one can survive. But since the BW fans are turning away from Proleague in droves, and KeSPA has made zero effort to reach the foreign scene....I guess they've been around too long for me to just write them off, but man. I'd be surprised if more than 4 of the current teams in Proleague were around next year.

It's a testament to pride and incompetence. If KeSPA were doing their jobs properly, SC2 would never have been the slightest threat. If they were really good, they could've smothered SC2 in its infancy and won a bunch more foreign fans by converting them, turning SC2 into an advertisement for BW. There was a LOT KeSPA did wrong over the years. I've been re-reading The Death of WCW (highly recommend it!), and I really wish someone would write a tell-all book about KeSPA. It'd be the first time KeSPA told anyone anything about their plans. It's too late, now. BW is dead, and all KeSPA switching games is going to do is kill SC2 as well. | ||

Looks like the younger generation prefers mindless games. let's start with "the younger generation did not see the real games", keeping in mind that the majority of ppl is not a very discerning entity. That is why K-Pop and other "stuff" which I can't mention again and again without my eye twitching. ACE were more than just a team, they were BW legacy, and when its gone, there shall be nothing. | ||
