If WC3 could get tournaments running again in Korea after their scandal I'm sure BW will.

The problem is that you need new players who wanna go pro in the long run. All the kids in korea play overwatch and lol though

When timena( Flash ) was playing, bisu purposely said that its not flash when everyone said it was flash. He kept referring to some other progamer. Yesterday bisu said he purposely did that to hide flash's identity. People are speculating that bisu is also doing it for jaedong as he keeps saying jaedong is hydra or some other progamer. Note they're all close and play/drink together like once a week.
Additionally, Jiko did not even know who onlystar(bisu) was. This tells us that he just came back from a long break from something. Everyone knows onlystar. Jiko also does not know how to do basic command on fish server, also strengthening the argument.




Other quotes:
Jiko to Shinee: "What do you think I'm lacking at?" What is the current trend for zvt on FS?"

I know these guys are close and I know they can conspire to keep someone's account a secret (like FlaSh and Bisu for example.) So if I get what you're saying, then Bisu is saying hydra is Jaedong to keep Jiko's real identity a secret?

Good point, but WC3 didn't have to face a major update with the release of a WC4 game.

Is twitch.tv/espiJaedong, actually Jaedong?

~_~ If it's him it's weird that there's only like 5 viewers.

no, it's not him. espi.jaedong has been around some time with this nick. I dunno if his name is Jae Dong as well or if he's just a fan (;

Ah, that makes sense, thanks for clarifying.. Would be weird for JD to stream on twitch instead of afreeca, but then again he has a pretty decent fanbase outside korea.

I guess it's going to be awhile before JvF is a reality again ^^

This would be great of course, but without young players the greatness won't last long.

Well yeah, I was personally never a big fan of him but he was definitely up and coming in the last days of professional BW.

Fair enough! :D

Considering that Zest (Wooki) is doing really well in sc2 i don't see him retiring unless sc2 really dies off completely in korea though.
Soulkey is way more likely.

What is the current popularity of brood war in Korea? There are quite a lot of ex-pro gamers that are still playing, but do they still have the same fame as in the past?

If you had to put a percentage, would you say it's 50-50 between bw and sc2?


its more like 85:15 bw and sc2. sc2 has absolutely no place in korea. According to statistics, sc2 is like ranked 23~30 most played in pc rooms while bw is consistently #6~8. Blizzard is like the only MAJOR sponsor that keeps sc2 running. No one plays sc2 in korea. Also, according to movie, he says this may be the last proleague scene for sc2. Sc2 is going to die in korea soon.


Any source of these statistics?

SC2 affected WC3 just as hard as it affected BW. The scene kinda declined when SC2 was announced and then went splat when it was released. Also, when SC2 was released, Blizz stopped doing WC3 at Blizzcon, just like BW.

WC3 was definitely affected. Naniwa and Grubby were WC3 players as far as I know. They switched to SC2 later. Well, Grubby seems to be playing something else at the moment, but this is irrelevant for this discussion.
