Another one goes down
Why does it have to end like this?

Would be interesting to hear Boxer's thoughts on Ace disbanding, and well, on the BW situation as a whole. Maybe he doesn't care but he's the symbol of BW for me and many others I believe.

I thought SC2 was actually pretty big in Korea so that ACE could still be there when the transition happened.


It goes LoL, BW, Sudden Attack or any other CS remakes then a shitload of MMOs. Afterward, you got SC2.

ACE is suppose to target their local audience. With that in mind, they are better of introducing LoL into their program than SC2.


Seriously is it really that bad?


Yes that is the statistics provided by the amount of players at each games in the PC Bangs.

PC bangs are no longer what they used to be, check here.

Exactly. I never thought I'd reach a point where I could say I was done. Seeing ACE leave is just so saddening. And the state of Bisu right now, I'm just going to retire knowing him as the best bw Protoss of all time.

Noooooo! This action kind of makes sense, but it's sad to see Ace go.

That was unnecessary, seriously.

On the topic of smartphones killing E-Sports, yeah they are. Games that are easy to play, semi-hardish only cuz touch screens suck at pinpoint accuracy, (i.e. angry birds) draw a huge consumer base that otherwise would play computer games and thus draw the money to it.
User was warned for too many mimes.

I don't think the people who play smartphone games are the same ones who would play Brood War.

Well, if you look at PC Baang rates, but a lot of people have their own computers now, so it's hard to say for sure.

SC2 is a LOT smaller than BW in Korea, though. That's undeniable. And the hybrid formula isn't making new fans.

There'll be more teams shutting down in the not to distant future, GSL and/or KeSPA.

It started out as a dream made into reality... and that reality is now crushed. I guess I should just brace myself for more tragedies incoming for BW.

ACE will be missed. But their legacy will go on forever in BW fans' hearts.

Guys, LoL is a part of the casual gaming revolution, don't bring it up as a counterexample.

I respect their decision to dissolve the team rather than transition into Starcraft 2. For whatever reason, Blizzard has not managed to keep the competitive level of Brood War and in my opinion, SC2 is just a game whereas Brood War was truly an esport.
