I could actually see foreign numbers beating SC2 tournaments. SC2 is super over-saturated, but GOM producing a BW tournament with Tasteless and Artosis (presumably, they made poor Tastosis cast World of Tanks, the worst "eSport" ever made) is a one-time event. The novelty factor alone might bring in a few thousand viewers. I don't get why everyone is going "Bluh they just want us to like them again so they can cross-promote!". Obviously they are. So what? SKT1 existed because someone thought it'd sell cell phones. As long as they have a good tournament with an HD stream with good English casting, they can advertise Ass Cream between each game for all I care. | ||

I think his profile is very high right now. He starred recently in the Korean reality and game show "The Genius" and played a very prominent role in the first season. He was invited back for season two as well, along with BoxeR. I understand it's a very popular television show. funny clip where Jinho talks with pop idol Sunggyu about being bunker rushed: show thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=415367 | ||

You really think the foreign BW fans will choose the Korean cast over seeing Tasteless cast the GOMTV classic again, or do you specifically mean it when SNM is casting? | ||

I'm pretty sure that they can make running Classic profitable, they have all the infrastructure in place, they have a large audience (KR). So I don't think cross promotion is the only reason they got into this, I'm pretty sure that they are actually trying out how BW would do on their channel in 2014. | ||

He said serious ones, so yes. I even cast for BW and would still choose to watch the Korean commentary over any foriegn commentary. Something about the casters passion and maybe the language itself just works and makes the casts incredibly enjoyable. | ||

I mean that if there's no English cast, BW fans will watch the Korean stream over not watching it at all, so adding an English stream doesn't do much to bring hardcore BW fans (and obviously even casual Korean BW fans will watch Korean). The point of an English stream would be to appeal to SC2 fans for cross-promotion. | ||

I just want to see high quality games and not Yellow getting destroyed. I actually agree. I think YellOw is a legendary player, one of the greatest of all time. I deeply respect his skill in the past, and how he was owning Terrans left and right, and sometimes even BoxeR, back when most maps were significantly imbalanced in favour of Terran in ZvT. He was a great player, and one of my personal favourites. But now, he's out of practice, and I don't want to see him get embarassed. If he would come back for real and practice, I would love it, but he won't. So I'd rather not see him at all. | ||
