To take an extreme example, I don't think OGN would take a cigarette company as a sponsor no matter how much money they offered. Sure, but why not energy drinks? Energy Drinks sponsering a video game league makes perfect sense. Gamers drink a LOT of energy drinks. Red Bull sponsers a lot of competitive events. And to say that OGN shouldn't accept the sponser because the drink is bad for you is a little silly. I seriously doubt the drink contains nicotine because in the united states it would be illegal for them to do that. But maybe korea has different regulations. Either way, as someone mentioned before, shitty beer companies have been sponsering all types of sporting events for decades. And those are definitely not good for you. Niether is Red Bull. Basically, I wouldn't consider this a sign at all that OSL is having trouble finding sponsers. | ||

Bacchus is very well-liked and popular in Korea. Who cares if it's a energy drink? I don't see why it matters at all. Like Foeverwar said, it's actually even better! Good sponsor. | ||

It doesn't say anything about declining interest in Starcraft either. Yeah, Bacchus Starleague sounds funny but people will get over it. | ||

I personally like Bacchus, though I don't drink it often, but I don't live in Korea so I don't really get what's so funny about it. | ||

Hahaha well that wasn't my point I was gettin at with my initial post but..I don't know Bacchus is just kind of..humorous. It's really hard to explain. The fact that the Bacchus commercials are shit-awful doesn't probably help. The ending always goes something like "속을 시원하게 해주는 바카스!!" Lol. I am actually not sure, but I guess people find it funny when OGN goes from Ever, Shinhan Bank, Daum and etc to... Bacchus. (what I was saying was being sponsored by Bacchus, which is after all a large company, doesn't say anything about the decreasing interest in Starcraft and such. But yeah, I will be the first one to admit Bacchus Starleague is pretty hilarious. Come on, it's BACCHUS!!!) ![[image loading]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/4e/Bacchus-F.jpg) | ||

 If we slip it to savior before the game it will probably have no effect because I'm sure every progamer is probably dosed up with caffine anyways So it might make him shake a little and have a stomach ache. Yes I know you're kidding but oh well. | ||

Altough it looks like medicine and their logo is kinda cheap it's the osl that matter in the end. I expect hyperfast cuts in the intro. Anything else would be disapointing | ||

I'd love it for SaviOr and XellOs to do really well too, if only for the presence of old-school. Especially SaviOr deserves a break. He looked amazing vs NaDa in the dual-tournament and the way he was steaming after "FBH III" he's either going to berserk his way into the finals, or fizzle out before RO8. Hoping for the prior. As mentioned above - this could be a wonderful OSL (go Bacchus, go etc! ^^) if you're not crazy about TvT. | ||

As long as it's not cigarettes/drugs, I don't see any problem here. Otherwise milk companies are the only option left for OGN I guess. And it will be hilarious (but not so surprising) if Ongamenet get a diaper/baby lotion company as a sponsor in the near future. Those fan girls gotta get married someday you know Johnson's Baby OSL.- I can already see it coming. | ||
