its more like the current scene is effectively just a expro worship circlejerk that everyone (including koreans and foreigners and even myself) unfortunately wants to see it continue and nothing else. so theres little to no incentive and support systems whatsoever to help amateurs improve. soma is a rare exception only because he was buddies with larva. hyukking and miso/ggaemo choking is long old and stale.

I understand your point but I don't agree with the reasoning. I think the community would be very excited by a new champion amateur. The reason it doesnt happen imo is because of the simple economics of the current state of brood war. Without some recognition you wont be able to support yourself with streaming alone and therefore must work a job. Taking a lot of time from practice etc. I don't think its some expro worship but rather its very hard for newer blood to logistically break into the pro level. Not even factoring natural "talent". It's just not the type of game (extremely high level skill requiring huge amounts of daily practice) that will allow a newer player to reach the highest levels without patronage. Patronage like lots of balloon gifts etc is very hard to come by for up and coming players. Wish it wasnt the case myself, but that seems to be hard cold reality of broodwar these days.


what you just said is basically part of "little to no incentive and support systems" that i just mention.

"I think the community would be very excited by a new champion amateur."
are they? yes of course it would be nice to see that, but that takes far more effort and incentive than say continuing to spon flash v bisu for the 1000th time or seeing artosis stream bw. and by their vievership the latter stuff is still ultimately what draws people into continuing to watch bw till this day. people are just expecting hot amateurs to magically rise out of thin air.
I hear you man, but economically, what kind of support systems do you think would possible? I don't see it happening. So we basically agree. The only difference is I think that most fans would love to see someone come out of no where especially in these times.
