Again people perform a certain specific action for one reason or another. Why don't you find out that reason by yourselves and try to observe things from another one's perspective. Beside we aren't making things worse because what's done have already been done.
When JangBi wins the last OSL, I'm going to spend those 3 hours of TL.net surfing on something more productive. Probably going to get my band back together. I'm planning to pick up working out again and will spend more time in reading to augment my knowledge. That will be enough to fill in the void left by BW. As far as I can see it, SC2 will never replace Brood War and by the pattern that Blizzard is marching, I don't see RTS gaming to have a revival.

Lol, are you that surprised about people thinking that BW is the best game ever, and everything else is inferior to it in a BW forum? If you don't want to read posts like that, then stay away from the BW forum.

Im really sorry BW is ending and it seems like you had a really great time with it. Hopefully you can figure out what to do after, working out and reading seem like really good ideas. Good luck to you!

Guys, just stop. Calling elitism just provokes BW vs SC2, and what you will do instead of surfing TL isn't relevant to anything at all.
This isn't that unexpected to be honest, it's quite sad seeing them lose almost every match

Haha, there's nothing positive about this, nor does it have to do with BW. Since its creation when Boxer went to the Korean Air Force, the simple existence of a progaming team sponsored by the military verified that esports was popular and legitimate. It was better for everyone, including for instance the Special Force players, that this team existed. There is nothing positive about a Starcraft team disbanding.

Eh, last I checked there were still players on like 10 servers. Professional Korean BW is "ending" (switching to SC2). So basically you want people to look on the bright side of the dissolution of one of the most important teams.

I think this deserves a lol, so true.
Also the only people I see being banned here are the ones trying to take a dump on BW

Well about sc2 wont be able to be better than BW, if you have sc2, play the Heart of the swarm custom mode, i have played and its SO FUN, i dont want to play WoL anymore, so if you haven't, try it.
Srry for the offtopic
On topic.
Its such a shame, it was a great team, sincerely i hope sc2 grows a lot in korea, so ACE reconsiders and comes back, but if they disband uintil 2014, i think maybe they will change their mind and never quit.
|
Man that sucks. I wonder how the older Kespa players who were probably hoping they could join ACE in the future feel. Bummer.
|
At first I wasn't surprised, then I realized that means they aren't moving to SC2. Unfortunate :/
R.I.P ACE
|
"Tis a sad day indeed. I think almost everyone was an ACE fan of sorts, considering how poorly they did; who doesn't like the underdog winning, after all?
I hope that professional BW survives (in Korea, that is), but I fear this is just one more drop of water evaporating from the bucket that is Korean BW

You wouldn't be interested in professional BW somewhere else? I know the Chinese scene is really small, and the western scene is pitable, but there's still a chance to grow them into something respectable within a few years, I think.

end of an era  So sad but sadly expected

not sure, generally they had older players so i assume most will retire.

This kind of news doesn't even affect me anymore... every week, it's like "An iconic proleague figure or organization is completely gone" AND I'M STILL PLAYING BROODWAR, WHAT'S UP!

Oh their so stupid. Some general in some cushy office some where who can't type and has no idea what the heck a video game is and he's never met his kids made this decision. This is a perfect example as to why the military is always 5 steps behind the curve.
To the contrary, they know exactly what a video game is. They are disbanding with the end of BW because SC2 will only ever be a video game.
|
Some people are confused why but it's a obvious. I posted a while back that this was expected. I'll elaborate on why.
To transition to SC2 not only means to transition to a new game. You transition from a national stage to the Internationale stage. Air Force ACE is ironically the only team that can't fly it's players out of Korea due to military restrictions.

Come on, I know SC2 isn't perfect, but comparing it to Justin Bieber? Now that's too far. I challenge you to an e-duel! :p
Nowadays, whenever the issue of BW vs SC2 comes up, threads usually turn to shit, because trolls know that BW fans are hurting, so they pour salt into the wound, knowing that it will prompt an angry reaction.
This isn't a BW vs SC2 thing, this is an eSport issue, and regardless of whether you prefer Sc2 of BW, this news is reason for sadness.
