I will gladly support this tournament! Sea regularly streams and plays in the sonic league tournaments. He's actually been quite dominant until just recently. | ||

I would rather see another Yellow vs. Boxer as a showmatch to hype the actual tournament than Yellow taking a spot from these active players. Even if he's King of Special events, I think he's going to get owned pretty bad. STORM ZERG FIGHTING! | ||

Maybe there was some KeSPA strong-arming in the background, but it's just speculation unless there's proof. Considering that there were still KeSPA teams that were willing to participate makes me think that it's not "KeSPA forcing GOM out" Plus, I think it's plausible for most of those teams to decline participation back then. MBC OGN and eStro didn't want to benefit their "competitor" (they didn't play in all 3 seasons), SKT and KTF were heavily focused on Proleague (SKT even limiting players from OSL/MSL before), and Airfoce ACE didn't allocate a lot of practice time to their players, which was needed for PL. STX I dunno tho lol here's the TL thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=104250 it's no speculation. Kespa teams withdrew because Kespa told them to do so, which was the product of OGN and MBC beeing unhappy with gom competition. That's a wildly established pov, i don't know what more proof you need? | ||

They didn't do the English casting for us, or for the love of the game...they did it simply to expand to what they thought will be a new market. Not to mention you needed to pay to watch basically anything (ok, like 4x3 pixel res. VODs were free). It's nice to see another tournament in BW. But I doubt they would have done it without 'something else' failing. With or without them, thanks to Sonic (and the viewers of course) Korean BW is still going strong. And Tasteless commentating...of course, if you want to hear that P will build some Gateways...eventually. agree here, that ban is not fair imo. He could have cut the F word, but besides you can argue that point of view pretty reasonable. And yes, if you do focus solely on sc2 and make up a rivalry Starleague format (GSL), then you do hinder BW, as both products struggle for the same market share. However, i dont think people at Gom make those decisions judged by their feelings for the game. So Gom didnt hurt BW intentionally, but they ofc. didnt care either. Its capitalism guys. | ||

i also feel this is a PR stunt to pull more people towards sc2 but i hope it backfires and results in an influx of new and old bw fans. | ||
