Does Blizzard plan to increase the skill ceiling for SC2 now that Flash / Jaedong / Bisu (or most A-team progamers) will make the game such a yawn fest?

That image makes me cry. "Yeah Bisu, let's see you micro these Zealots against my CONCUSSIVE SHELLS".

Surely, regardless of the game, the skill of the players will always show interesting matches... I mean there are build order wins in sc2, and awesome ways to come back. I think you're being a bit too cynical.

Either embrace SC2 or make it the end of being a progaming spectator. I am the latter.

Good thing there are other equally good competitive games out there. Been watching Dota 2 for some time competitively and it is pretty good.

I really wish I was around to be a BW fan back in the day. I didn't start watching till 2010, and I must admit this is sad. I used to play Halo 2 and it was by far one of my favorite games ever. I've competed at multiple MLG's in 05 and 06 then the terrible switch to Halo 3 happened. So overall, I get it BW fans...and I feel bad for you

If any good comes out of this, most of the BW pros/A teamers will just switch over to SC2, I think it's for the best if Kespa does make the switch....just don't retire

Savior and match fixing has killed at least half of the scene. Will SC2 take the rest down?

So they are really going through with this aren't they? Well, if it bombs hopefully they will blame it on the sc2 part and not BW and then KeSPA will go back to hosting BW only tournaments.

I dunno. I could never get into sc2 streaming or playing. It's not the lack of flashy lights or noises. I just don't think about it all the time like I did w/ BW. That and there's a lack of flashy distinct plays imo. I can't explain it.

I haven't watched a SC2 game in months.

That's a huge injustice for your generation.

This is really stupid. BW and SC2, despite being similar RTS games, still have large differences in gameplay. They are two different skill sets to master and memorize, and now these pros can't just specialize in one of them

Are we going to see BW pros suiciding mutas into marines in SC2 while accidentally mass-storming in BW?

I don't know. Maybe the games are similar enough. Maybe it would be like switching between LoL and HoN. Can any players here that play two MOBA games at the same time talk about what it's like?
