Why not? This is all about BW bashing because of SC2. I am just curious why would Blizzard do this, if not for SC2. Please let us be dissapointed and rant about it.

in all seriousness, i dont see how blizz can legitimately think that shutting down bw leagues will make sc2 more popular. the people who are still in bw rather than sc2 have obviously made a conscious decision to NOT play sc2 (therefore their priority should be fixing sc2 rather than killing bw). like someone else said, it's as if they want everyone in korea to play LoL or something.

innocent until proven guilty...we do not know if its because of SC2 unless its been proved to be so.

not saying its not because of that either, because even I'm pretty sure of it but his point still stands.

they destroyed the pro scene cause of sc2, so its much likely that they do the same here with amateur scene.

I'm going to go brush my teeth, I've got a bad taste in my mouth all of a sudden. I can't say exactly how much the Activision merger has to do with this, but I can't imagine it helped.

Dude he just told you not to do exactly what you just did. He's the guy with mod powers. That's reason enough.

이건 아니다 정말... 게임이 두개있으면, 사람이 하고싶은걸 하게 놔두고, 그나마 아직도 좋아하는사람들을 위해 살려둬야지, 그냥 이렇게 죽이는건 아니다. 옛날에 캐스파때문이라고해도, 개인방송리그는 개인이니까 거기에 맞춰서 돈을 받아야지, 이렇게 뒤통수치는건 아니다.


Ugh.

I think we should all follow Chrisolo's example to let the general population of TL know of what's going on.
I've now changed my quote to "Disappointed in Blizzard: BW SSL Finals cancelled due to Blizzard. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=381957"

I suggest you guys do the same, let everyone know about this!

Rofl, this is pathetic.
This shows how much Blizzard trusts the quality of their product...

Isn't this the exact same thing they make every sc2 event do too? If the prize pool is above a certain amount you need to have a license to host the tournament?

We should help Sonic salvage the situation, If hes not allowed to stream on Afreeca we should get him to stream it on Twitch.

What do you guys say?

while that is true, I believe its only for SC2, also its the case of them actively trying to shut down afreeca streams.

but why do it RIGHT before the finals? This will definitely have a serious effect on future sponsors as well as motivation for another season. Couldn't they have notified Sonic sooner or after this season is finished? Doing it before the tournament's end will just make future BW leagues harder to organise meaning less royalty money for Blizzard in the long run anyway.
