Does this mean that people are having trouble finding OSL/MSL sponsors?


Or they are becoming more self reliant.

Regardless, why do they pick one sponsor for the events?

The shitty status the Korean economy is right now might also impact why we had such sponsors like games, job finding companies and etc.

I don't care as long as it's a sponsor that's not inappropriate.

They probably want sole rights or there isn't enough things that are worth sponsoring (aka nobody will buy into sponsoring a tournament with someone else).

I... have a sudden urge to check out this Lost Saga game.

Not really, but I'm not too keen on how this sounds "2009 Lost Saga MSL"

Is that Lost Saga for real?

From ID_eNTITY's page on Wikipedia:
iD_ᴇNTITY or Yureka (유레카) is a manhwa series created by Son Hee-joon in collaboration with Kim Youn-kyung and distributed by Tokyopop in North America. The series centers around the main character Jang-Gun and his friends along with their virtual reality avatars in the computer game world called "Lost Saga". There are 34 volumes right now (and still coming out), eleven of them have been released in the United States and 26 in France.

[Emphasis added]

Coincidence??????
There are three types of lies: statistics, studies, and benchmarks.

I don't get how the sponsors seem to affect the game quality of the MSL/OSL.
