It's pretty interesting to compare the prize distribution with something like GSL, which gives ₩40,000,000 for first place but is ₩170,000,000 in total. I think it's better to not be so top heavy.

I also think it would make sense to be more evenly distributed, as the players don't have teams and sponsors like during the kespa era and thus don't have income outside of of streaming and tourneys. Maybe it will motivate everyone to practice harder? They should call it the "Beat-Flash-for-Big-Bucks-ASL".

CB is like, infinitely better than FS right now and even that is getting overplayed. Bring back sniper ridge, jade, shit like that. Tau Cross I'm fine with .

He looks really out of shape though. When he first returned to BW he seemed to play really well, but after taking such a long break before the military and now that he's finally back his play doesn't seem sharp at all.

I think he needs a little more time to power up if he wants to win or qualify. But he is a two time champion so maybe he just needs this motivation and months time

Moo!

Bisu is winning this one for sure!

Now it's not technically the OSL replacement as OSL is coming back, it's the MSL replacement again so he can win!

They should introduce this maps, which are much better than the old crap that they want to use, with minor changes and adding "neo" or "2.0" to the map's name

For last, are the qualifiers completly open? if they are, does this means that even Savior can participate?, he's been laddering on SC Remastered, and he's in the top 50 in the Korean ladder, i'm sure he could qualify, but the problem is... are people going to bitch about it enough to prevent him from playing?, i really don't see the bad thing about him participating, i just want to see good players, they guy already legally payed for what he did, and he was banned from Kespa, which is disbanded

SaviOr will be welcomed back into Brood War when Life is welcomed back to SC2.

KeSPa still exists and still has some influence over both StarCraft games. Just because there's no more teams doesn't mean KeSPa can't prevent matchfixers from competing again, because they can...

No. Savior cannot compete or stream Starcraft (and any other competitive games).
Afreeca and most of the streaming websites complied with KESPA's decision on banning Savior from competing, monetizing on gaming content. Also, KESPA did not disband.
