Good to know, but i don't care.
Starcraft 2 doesn't need Korea, simple as that.

If HOTS(SC2 expansion) release,the situation might be better?



Probably not, we'll get a surge of amateurs trying to go pro, but in terms of audiences... I don't think HotS plays as big of a role as time, marketing and general publicity. On the bright side, SC2 is steadily growing in viewership so it probably won't be a "failure" forever.

Of course it has failed. All the players in sc:bw is still there. If they wont change then their fans wont either. Its a chicken and egg problem. And as long as sc:bw is played at the level and compition as it is now ik SK the fanswont change. But its big everywhere else so why does it matter? SK is irrelevant in everyway other than talent base.
Yeah

This isn't exactly new information. Its been known that SC2 hasn't done very well in Korea, for better or for worse.

As long as there isn't a mass exodus of ex-BW players switching over any time soon, it should be good. Otherwise they'll just stomp all competition we have right now and they'll take foreigner money if they're sent over here. At least we have a decent shot against the Koreans now.

But whatever, we'll see what happens.

Koreans obviously have terrible taste in games if they play Aion and Sudden attack the most. :/
