Kespa cares the most about the same thing that Gom, MBC, OGN, IEG, Blizzard, Microsoft and any other capitalist cares the most: Making money. Delivering a good product is just one of the many means to an end. If for whatever reason making a good product gets in the way of making the best short term profit. All of those will choose the same option. Moving their arse to solve a small mistake, for example, costs them money. So they won't move it unless it is really clear as day that doing otherwise would imply in severe losses.Hating them for that, or wishing we were better off without them sounds a little bit superficial imho.

Thats a ridiculously stupid statement. The rules were placed for a reason, inorder to avoid confusion after certain events; the rules were poorly constructed though. And I'm pretty sure a game where players practice 9-14 hours a day in leagues involving thousands of dollars is legit. | ||

MBC All-Kill league is, afaik, similar structure to Winner's League (WL borrowed the structure, but w/e), and included leagues such as the LG-IBM MTL (MBC Team League), MBCMovies TL and Tucson TL. MBC ran these solely. Edit: Or were you being sarcastic? I can't tell :< | ||

-(Boxer to Savior) I ask you to do me a favor. I tried to do this before I went to army but I think it is late for me to do it now. I hope you can create a player union type of thing where influential players gather to create a better environment for less known player base. ▲ Savior= It is impossible to even imagine players from different teams to gather. Too much team based... ▲ Boxer= But if no action is taken, it will only get worse. Even after I returned from army, I thought that it was very unfair for players. ▲ Shim Hyun Team Manager= I think it is best if we make another time to discuss this matter. In the case of baseball league, a lot of places and people provided help for player association. I think it is same for e-Sports that we need a lot of help from people to do this. | ||

Work it over and throw the old one away... I mean.. flaming is bad. But just mixing up some keys and typing "a" or whatever which leads to a forfeit loss is a bit hard. You should not punish everything the same way... Maybe next season some Proteams will not play OSL/MSL but instead just gom :D five teams dont participate in GOM because kespa has a hardon for their attempted monopoly No, four teams don't participate in GOM because their owners do not believe it is in their best interests. KeSPA only holds part of the blame because they won't force those teams to participate by sanctioning GOM's leagues. KeSPA has made a lot of bad decisions over the years but people need to realize that getting rid of them now would surely mean the end of competitive BW as we know it. Making rash statements like "the teams should just go create a new organization" or the like are just foolish. 90% of the problems we all are miffed about could be solved if there was a players association which helped maintain a balance of power between KeSPA and the players. estro and t1 don't play because of the IEG/KeSPA connection OGN/MBC dont play because the corporates see gom as competition AND they fear legal action from kespa when their players play in something not kespa sanctioned as is defined in the broadcasting rights that kespa created and sold to IEG ace doesnt play for whatever reason Come on FakeSteve, ACE does indeed play in GOM this season. Aren't you watching? | ||

Those teams don't play purely because OGN/MBC don't want the added competition. KeSPA doesn't have the power to dictate what events teams can not participate in - they can only tell them which events the teams absolutely have to participate in. (and that's pretty much limited to PL) Basically what I'm asking is what clause in the broadcasting rights makes MBC and OGN's progaming teams KeSPA's bitch? MBC would pull their sponsorship of Hero if the coaches ignored them. Legal battle with KeSPA/IEG > losing a small portion of their income. If MBC pulled their sponsorship of Hero, Hero would essentially die and the players would go to other teams. They can't even keep their stars from leaving with the money MBC sends to them. (July, Bisu, TheZerg and they almost lost Pusan) So in a sense they can tell Hero what to do (OGN isn't even a part of this anymore since Hite owns Sparkyz now) and unless the coaches want to lose their jobs and see their hardwork disappear they listen. and KeSPA and IEG are butt buddies, IEG owns the rights to PL and MBC is sure as hell not pulling out of PL over 1 league that is in competition with them. | ||

Yes, I know MBC would never go along with the team going rogue, that's not what I'm talking about, because that will never happen. What I want to know is how KeSPA would have any legal basis to go after MBC/OGN if they (for whatever reason) changed their minds and let their teams participate in GOM events. | ||
