we don't need new players, I could watch Bisu and Flash playing till we are sixty :3
and yes, somebody should make power rank and do it on 'once every 3 motnhs' basis for example.

Small update: There is something in the works, but nothing is confirmed or being announced yet. We will see something in Summer most likely.

And GSL 2 already announced but nothing about BW. Why they give hope to players and fans while they don't give a shit about BW anymore? This is pissing me off... -_-

By now you should have adjusted your expectations regarding any bigger news in BW over the last couple years. Usually when something is announced it will most likely happen but at a much later time. See the sonic leagues, the last two TLS and now the Afreeca league.

As usual, your colorful and emotional language makes you say what you surely do not mean. What have you done that is so much greater than afreeca.tv that you can say "they don't give a shit about BW?" What service have you provided that rivals the magnitude of what afreeca has done in allowing pros to generate hundreds of hours of content per week, get paid, play in tournaments, and have it cast in English? Please, mind your manners.

In any venture in any business there are bound to be setbacks, losses, dropped projects, etc. We don't know anything specific about what happened/what is happening at all, so don't shit on the people from whom you wish to obtain something.

Ah, it's you again defending as expected. What Afreeca done besides organizing one event of VNSL which sponsored by Vant 36.5? They became big company, bought Gomtv and leading GSL thanks to percentage of donations for BW pros. They just forgot their roots just like every big company else (OGN who swithec to LoL, KeSPA who gives 0 shit about BW now, Sonic who has gone greedy and started organizing SC2 SSL & Proleague). They announced they gonna host 2 tourneys - one in 1st half and 2nd in 2nd half - on January! Look how much time passed where SC2 already finished tons of tourneys. That's not normal because that's not how tournament regime works, the game will gonna die with that huge interval and halt like it was post kespa era when Sonic tried to revive it. And besides this I have my own personal reasons to shit on Afreeca. Also it's Afreeca's fault we lost one of the biggest BW VOD youtube channel. I waited so long before posting this because I was hoping that Afreeca will give a fresh start and new life to BW but still same shit.

What Afreeca has done is created a service through which gamers can stream and make money off of streaming. Without Afreeca there would be no Flash, Bisu, Effort, Shuttle, etc. streams. That is the ROOT of the BW scene. Without Afreeca, there would be NONE of the things you enjoy now, besides maybe TSL. So if you're saying that Afreeca will kill the BW scene by being late/having issues with on a tournament, you're ignoring the fact that Afreeca is the one that gave it life post-KeSPA in the first place. To speak down to Afreeca for your position is so mind-boggling to me. You could say "I hope that everything is okay with Afreeca," or, "I hope these tournaments come around soon!" But, to say "they don't give a shit about BW anymore," is presumptuous and childish at best.

TL;DR You want BW content? Go watch your favorite pros on Afreeca ->

You want BW tournaments? Go watch Kim Carrier's league on Afreeca.

You want more BW tournaments? Go watch KLM's Race Wars... on Afreeca.

You get my point? Don't bite the hand that feeds.

@Jealous, please respect the others opinion, in every thread you are defending your linear point of view and for you is the only one that exist, if he thinks that Afreeca doesnt give a shit about BW, he has the right to say so, and yes they are not making this service to BW for free, you know that Afreeca makes money from the streamers?, so it is not like: oh please everybody worship Afreeca, BW community is feeling dissapointed about not having news on these two tournaments, it gives the impression that they only care about the profit from the ex pros but not making bigger things happening for the whole scene, besides here comes this guy from Afreeca and only says vague things.

Is it me or everyone suddenly became blind and did not see this post? I understand the hunger for an OFFLINE EVENT (which you keep failing to understand @Jealous) But can you at least cut them some slack? For now lets enjoy the Afreeca stream. I'm sure the offline events did not end forever and they will return soon.

I did read very well, and the conclusion is: it may happen or not, if yes:likely on summer or not.
