I don't really care about LoL so i don't know about that pic but as rasers said, the bw picture is from a normal BW playday in the studio, i've watched every single match this season, and in everyone of them the studio has been full (: | ||

But BW scene switching to SC2 isn't really a "rumor" from what I know :S How can you be sure? And can you give us anymore details, especially whether you're referring to entire teams? The OP and others seem to think that we're only talking about C-teamers practically, and maybe some B-teamers who actually do play BW pretty well, but not many. I will be excited either way. Because former BW players have been so successful in SC2, many SC2 fans respect the top BW players like Jaedong even though they don't watch them. Even if players of that top caliber don't switch to SC2, it'll be cool to see SC2 players playing in the same practice house and environment as Jaedong, Bisu, Flash, etc. Maybe the same practice environments that produced those players can produce some excellent SC2 players. Also maybe it would give SC2 more legitimacy in KR if BW teams had SC2 teams? Obviously it would help a ton if big names switched to SC2, but I still don't believe that yet. | ||

Yea, you could just as easily say that no video game should ever be taken seriously for the same reason, but I'm sure fabiano wouldn't agree with that argument. How difficult can it be to sit in a chair and type on a keyboard, right? I mean I do that everyday. Why would anyone watch people do that? It's an entirely subjective perspective that almost doesn't even warrant discussing. You will never convince people that the things they are passionate about aren't worth taking seriously. | ||

If anything, I have a feeling that the BW sponsors would just dissolve their teams and get out of the scene rather than take on SC2 teams. After all, who cares or even knows about SK Telecom or KT outside of Korea? They're rival telecommunication companies that operate within South Korea. Since SC2 market is mostly outside of Korea, there is really no incentive for these guys to sponsor a Korean SC2 team. Edit: I did remove SC2 from my sidebar. | ||

None of that middle of the season crap. I want a proper ending of the epic BW legacy in Korea if they do decide to end it (oh God I hope not). | ||

It is a really good game if you compare to CnC and it is fun to play casually, but for someone who has been playing BW, watching competitive SC2 is awful, disgusting and I found myself facepalming at each new feature they added/removed from the game. It is enraging. But it is ok. I just stopped playing it, stopped following it and forgot about it, except the fact that I flushed US$60 down the toilet. I still have BW to play and to watch and everything is kind of okay, even if they ADD SC2 to Proleague its okay, I might even check a game someday to see if I change my mind. Now, if KeSPA slowly replace BW with SC2 then its just over. In my eyes, the era of the competitive eSports sinks with BW. We then will be hostages of Browder's 'creative mind'. gg Amen, brother. | ||

( yes i know, in starcraft, teams have crucial role with practice and strategies and what not but in essence the game is still 1v1). The same way football/basketball is much more popular than tennis/track/swimming etc. It's always fun to see interactions and even conflicts between teammates. In this sense, I don't really think you can compare LoL and SC2. Also, it is sad that in BW and SC2, the majority of the viewers don't really play anymore. Heck, even TL staff don't play SC2 anymore ( they play LoL and Dota more as far as i can see) and reddit starcraft are full of people who do not even own the game despite being one of the most active subreddits. That makes it so hard to attract new bloods to the game a few years in. How can you tell someone that the game is fun and worth following when you don't even play the game anymore. | ||

It will take months to get used to the different mechanics and micro and get players knowledge even close to the current SC2 S class players. So what good team wouldnt at least have a few players who are ready to represent their team in SC2 in case it happens? Or do you think they will just keep playing BW hoping everything fixes itself? | ||

Serioulsly, if you enjoy BW, play it and watch it. If you like SC2 play it and watch it. If you like both then do both. If you hate both then fuck off away from me. And i thought australia was upside down land... | ||
