Tasteless announced it before the first game of Organ vs Calm. Great news for Starcraft, GOM, and Tasteless. Should make the games more important and therefore even more exciting for the players participating.

Didn't like SKT1 and some other team ditch the tournament? Can they get in now?!

And does this mean that the players will recieve points added to the KESPA ladder?

They wanted GOM to fail... instead they just fucked over their own players. Meh.

The reason they couldn't get sanctioned was because MBC OGN and IEG were blocking it. Quite politically motivated.

Nice to see all the teams participate especially for all the new faces and of course veterans.

Do you think they will have the top 16 or 32 players from the previous season to be seeded for the next season now? I kind of feel sorry for Shuttle for making it all the way to 4th and now starting at the bottom again. But then again, it makes the GomTV tournament much more competitive!

It'd be interesting to hear the opinions of some of the players about this, mainly the ones on MBC/OGN/Estro who aren't allowed to compete because the team they are on.

Well, the PLAYERS themselves are going to love it - another competition, another chance to win prize money and fame. I'm sure many of them were pretty pissed off to be honest. Will they come out and say that? Of course not... but yeah, it'd be nice to hear.

Cos GOM is cutting into their share of the pie, or so they think.

Idra lost 1-2. It wasn't broadcast live, but Tasteless and Susie are hoping to be able to do a broadcast of his matches soon if they can. We won't be seeing Idra in the RO128 though

who did idra lose to?
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

That's good news, 3 big SLs now

Do people count the 1st one still as a proper Starleague, or do we have to wait before Jaedong officially becomes the 1st guy to win OSL, MSL and GSL

Yeah I don't think any player will say anything about it. I imagine he would be put on toilet cleaning duty for a long time. You don't just voice your opinion without your team's/coach's approval.

Being deprived of another chance getting money and fame surely isn't going to motivate them more...

Hey guys, I was at the live showing yesterday of the GomTV matches (bragbragbrag). Anyway, I chatted to a member of the Gom staff while I was there. She told me that the official Kespa sanction has come too late for it to have any significant impact on the current Season 2 of the GomTV.

In addition, even in future seasons, it is still not guaranteed at all that MBC, OGN or Estro will join the tournament. So the practical consequence of the decision is really just that GomTV can say that they are an official tournament now.

Btw.. <3 Susie, <3 Tasteless

Maybe they'll buy out Hanbit Stars seeing as a couple of months ago they were talking about that team disintegrating or being bought out. I don't know about that though, it seems like that was a while ago and they're still around so maybe things have changed since then.

Hanbit was supposed to have already been bought twice. Item mania and a second company that it wouldn't make sense for kespa not to approve (they like make electronics or something like that).
