They saw that they just couldn't recreate the magic of BW with SC2 no matter how hard they tried. But we will see... They've also been promoting ASL a bit on their official SC2 website. They had similar posts for the previous ASL too. http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/20482903/ This post also got advertised in their B.net client and even inside the SC2 client, though just modestly among other official news. I do think patch 1.17 is just part of their efforts to update their legacy games and isn't indicative of any big shifts in resources. The main RTS team is likely still busy working on cosmetics and co-op content for SC2, and any new project is likely at most in the earliest stages of pre-production. | ||

I don't really do afreeca streams or follow ygosu stuff, but for sure im balls deep whenever there's a tourney and the lineup is good. SSL was really depressing in a way for me, still watched most of it but dropped off until i heard bisu was back. I'm a casual fan who played in 1999 never really got good at it but this is the only game I've ever loved, about 30 of my friends are similar but me being the most obssessed with watching the highest level of BW play. | ||

Then donate to the ASL tournament streams on afreeca. Like the one hosted by Bisudagger. Give stars to that tournaments if you wanna support the scene. | ||
