It's the date we get to know the sponsor!!!


Yes, but is there any idea, why sonic thinks it will be more significant to announce specifically on that date, as opposed to today?


SKT is playing MBC tomorrow. Maybe SKT is sponsor :O

SKT and MBC are both on 4 wins so whoever wins this gets to take the 2k. Not saying it's the reason but it does hype up the match a bit.

A korean friend of mine told me (translation):

- It will apparently be supported by Blizzard (what really?)
- All of the games at his studio

I'm just not sure about the level of commitment this says(about the Blizzard support): 블리자드가 직접 공식 홈페이지 및 SNS를 통해 홍보지원과 또 여러가지 방면으로 적극적으로 도움을 줄것으로 약속 받았으며,
스타1을 좋아하는 모든 세계인에게도 아프리카를 통해 송출이 되므로.

Is it a done official deal/or is it just in the works? Can you ask your korean friend?

Will do!

Edit: My korean friend confirms that it's apparently official. According to her, they will probably promote his league or something.

이며
현재 히든싱어 스폰과 여러가지 망고식스 제휴로 다방면에서 활동을 하고 있습니다.
몽키3 뮤직 전속모델은 요즘 상속자에 나오는 김우빈씨!
여러 방면으로 활동을 하고 있습니다.
온게임넷 서든어택 리그로도 후원을 했던 적이 있는 만큼 e스포츠 산업에 지속적인 투자를 하고 있으며 이번 9차 스타리그 후원을 하게 되었습니다.^^
1등 상금 1500만원
2등 상금 500 만원
3등 상금 200 만원 으로 책정 되었습니다.
선수들 상금 수당에 . + 되는 금액은 따로 책정 되어 있으며. 총 상금은 3천만원 정도입니다.

9차 스타리그 해설진들은 김태형 해설과 이승원 해설이 함께 합니다.
방송 관련해서는 아프리카 페이지 및 9차 스타리그의 HD 장비지원은 아프리카TV가 공식적으로 도움을 줄겁니다.^^

이번 소닉9차 스타리그는. 개인 사상 최초로.
블리자드가 직접 공식 홈페이지 및 SNS를 통해 홍보지원과 또 여러가지 방면으로 적극적으로 도움을 줄것으로 약속 받았으며,
스타1을 좋아하는 모든 세계인에게도 아프리카를 통해 송출이 되므로. 외국 스타1 가장 유명한 커뮤니티 팀리퀴드에서도 핫합니다.^^


이번 9차 스타리그는 32강 부터 결승전까지 모두다 오프라인으로 진행이 되며
오픈 스튜디오는 무료입장이며 시청자들을 위한 다과상도 준비 할 예정입니다.
오프라인 진행시에 인터뷰걸 2명까지! 8차 스타리그와 다른점들이 굉장히 많아집니다.
오프라인 오는 관객들에게 32강 진행동안 총 1억 정도의 규모로 이벤트 상품이 뿌려지게 됩니다.(소닉tv)

스타 브르드워는 꾸준히 사랑받고 있으며.

외국 유명한 야구선수 요기베라가 했던말 처럼 끝날 때까지 끝난 것이 아니다. 라는 말처럼
비록 온라인 송출이지만. 스타 브르드워는 계속 송출이 되고 있으며. 송출이 끝까지 될수 있을거라 믿습니다!
저는 10년후에도. 스타크래프트 브르드워의 대회와 인기는 지속될것으로 생각합니다!
한국의 바둑과 같은 스타 브르드워가 계속 될수 있게 저도. 저 나름대로 열심히 하겠습니다.

9차 스타리그 조지명식때 여러분들을 뵙도록 하겠습니다.
뜨거운 환호와 오프라인 참여!
잘 부탁드리겠습니다.

In short: Sponsor announced, it's Monkey3 Music (korean mp3 site)! They sponsored OGN's Sudden Attack league (Korean Counter-Strike) before and now they're sponsoring SSL9 so they have experience with esports. Prizepool confirmed: 1st place ~$14.000, 2nd place: ~$4.700, 3rd place: ~$1.900. (8th SSL was $4.600, $2.760, $1.840, $920.)

Blizzard will help by promoting SSL9 through their official homepage and SNS. This is apparently official.
~"SSL9 afreeca broadcasts will reach the entire world. And is also hot in the world's most famous foreign community TeamLiquid.^^" [kekeke]

Commentary for SSL9: Kim Carry + Lee Seung Won (doesn't actually state Sonic as a commentator, but I doubt he wouldn't)
[image loading]

Other details: Some kind of HD support for SSL9 will be provided by Afreeca.
Ro32 onwards will be offline, free admissions for viewers in the studio.
There will be 2 "interview girls" at the offline, Sonic's version of stargirls.
A lot else will be different from SSL8 (like these item giveaways at the studio).

Final message: "Star1 is still a game receiving love. bla
As the famous foreign baseball player Yogi Berra said ""The game's isn't over until it's over." And that's the spirit..bla.
~Star is still alive and I believe it will be alive in 10 years as well!
I'll do my best to make it happen. I hope you will all come to the offline and cheer on us."

Sorry I don't make fun of his message I just don't know how to translate it well.

thanks Essbee and his friend

This is awesome news. I'm just a bit confused over one thing: Blizzard is now promoting a tournament which currently doesn't have a legitimate stream for foreigners (no offense snipe, your streams are awesome, but it is pretty-ghetto for a company to promote). To me it feels a bit weird for a large company like blizzard to promote a stream that isn't an official restream of ssl

Noone says they're promoting snipe's restream specifically. They'll probably put up some news the day before the finals on their homepage/fb or something like that is what I'm imagining.

I really hope sonic decides to do dual stream on twitch aswell in that case. I don't really think promoting a Korean tournament that the rest of the world won't have direct access to is going to help that much :/
Still every little bit helps I guess :D

Maybe they'll do more than that, i sincerely think Blizzard returning to BW like this means they may have finally came to terms with SC2 not being a good game
