Unbelievable. Just look at what's happening, and how unthinkable it was only a few months ago.

Very excited for this if it takes place.

But another major tournament like an OSL? Not likely anytime soon.

I think his argument is that their schedule is jam packed with stuff, where would they fit it in their schedule

On the other hand, what's the point in doing a one-off Brood War event? Surely it can't generate THAT much revenue to be worthwhile... Don't you think they're just testing the waters before actually deciding whether they can fit another tournament into their regular timetable or not?

Broodwar is still very popular in S.Korea. I don't know the details, but I don't know if OGN can without Blizzard suing them. Wasn't it Blizzard who shut down the BW Professional scene?

It being popular doesnt dispute the initial point, where do they have time to hold such a tournament?

OGN and Blizzard aren't openly hostile anymore. OGN has broadcasted a KT showmatch, as well as a few seasons of Sonic/Sbenu Starcraft league. http://wcs.battle.net/sc2/en/articles/wcs-2014-announced also mentioned they've has rights to host Starcraft 1 competitions.

Can you give a link for that speech please? I want it readily available for reasons.

A nice thought but don't hold your breath.

OGN is already doing 2-3 nights of LoL LCK and 2 nights of Overwatch APEX every week. They dont have the time or space to add another regular event to their busy calendar. An occasional one-night only BW event, sure. But another major tournament like an OSL? Not likely anytime soon.

Isn't the original producer for OSL still at that Chinese company? I was under the assumption that some of the production talent behind OSL had moved on to other companies, while others stayed on and got engrossed by LoL.

No other game will ever be as popular as BW. Not LoL or whatever game OGN is broadcasting in their schedule. OGN would set aside any other game for Starcraft if they could without restraints. But those legal battles with Blizzard must have taken their toll on them and OGN doesn't want to go through that again despite now having rights.

I think Blizzard handled the transition from BW to Starcraft 2 very poorly.

Hoping for GARIMTO, Reach, Nal_rA, or PuSan[S.G] for the protoss side.

YellOw was my old favorite... good to see him interested Despite him falling off a bit, he still was super super good. Would be cool to see July, ChoJJa, or OgOgO in there as well

I also was around for XellOs's time of dominance, so he definitely deserves it. TheMarine, Boxer, NaDa, iloveoov, etc would all be cool as well.

Maybe next time around we will see some more faces? Even if this is just a one-off as people have stated, it will be awesome!

Yeah, http://www.inven.co.kr/webzine/news/?news=147467&iskin=esports Crisis left, so I think Wolf said it'd be extremely unlikely for another BW/SC2 OSL with him gone.

Granted, if they're doing showmatches and stuff, I can't imagine its that far of a stretch...

LOL is way more popular in several metrics.

Also, I dont think that adds up. "It took its toll" from 6 years ago but they've broadcasted other BW content including several seasons of the SSL?

No idea how official this is, but someone posted a new/revised players list at Ygosu

OGN supposed has an entry on their website for it called "스타레전드 최강전" or Star Legend Strongest

LoL is just as popular bw proleague? No way. BW proleague was a national past time in Korea, you had parents playing Starcraft. It's not just the lawsuits but all the gaming networks in S.Korea, all the pro players, and sponsors were forced to switch to Starcraft 2 I believe. Yeah it took it's toll on OGN. But look how that turned out Flash, Jaedong, Bisu, and many former BW progamers all went back to BW eventually. Stupid for Blizzard to think that SC2 can be just like BW proleague, it couldn't for obvious reasons.

I'm talking about the current year.And you still haven't disputed the initial point of discussion. They don't have time in their schedule when they're hosting other leagues most days of the week.

OGN consider New OSL.

I think if OGN allstar race battle will success, then it will be considered seriously.
