As long as teamliquid provides it's usual quality (high quality) I think this should be great.

It won't be on the TeamLiquidTV-stream, but on the proleagueSC2-stream, which is still subscriber-based for the 720p+ afaik?

I still can't understand how I just paid $100+ for a GomTV Premium GSL 2013 pass, but Kespa is content with charging $5 for a 7.5 month season of English Proleague casts and hired their (English) production crew 1 week AFTER the season started.

I am starting to be of the opinion that Kespa doesn't quite get the world outside of Korea. Or as some naysayers have mentioned, they don't really care about the foreign scene (but this is a baby step for them that shows they're starting to become more aware).

I can assure you that KeSPA and IEG, as well as OGN, do care about the foreign scene and was working hard to resolve this issue.


I can't speak too much about the SC2 scene, but KESPA teams are getting pretty active in foreign LoL. SKT1 and CJ Entus are at IEM right now actually. Hell, CJ Entus and KT Rolster B are getting pretty fucking good and I'll be expecting to see them in foreign lands more in the future.

EDIT: Actually, looking at it from an LoL perspective, the original statement about OGN and KESPA not caring is a bit strange between Champion Summers and the KESPA teams, though I suppose understandable considering their history.
Byun, best player in the world!

As great as this is, it's not a permanent solution to the problem. I still want to know exactly what happened between KeSPA and OGN that prevented an English Broadcast, since that's obviously ideal to have your casters at the venue and working full time on Proleague. Still, it's greatly appreciated and I hope it works out for the best. Now you just need to get Sayle to work a few weekend matches.


I don't think it is hard to figure out.

In the Brood War days, Proleague was produced by both OGN and MBC. Both companies had the rights for Korean broadcast, and both produced/broadcasted the matches played on their respective studios.

IEG was given the rights for international broadcasts since last year. As the international broadcast is internet-driven, it is natural for IEG and KeSPA to try centralizing the broadcast and distribution of VODs. Thus EsportsTV in Youtube and now sc2proleague in twitch.

Initially, IEG just broadcasted content produced by OGN. But now that IEG is producing the weekdays matches, and they already had the rights for international broadcasts, they might as well unify the production of international broadcasts. DoA did mention KeSPA was working with IEG on a unified platform.

Thus the spat with OGN, as it was a conflict of the status quo (split production) vs. unified production. As things didn't work out, we now the production deal with EG-TL.

A lot of this is speculation, trying to connect the dots. We don't know the details of planning and all that, but if you are struggling with production issues, might as well take some help and the added benefit of working with people that really know the audience.

EG and TL. I still don't like it.
But I can't denie that they bring some awesome extra impulse in the foreign scene.
I had a good night of sleep.

So does anyone know if we can watch the korean stream?? They killed it like 15 minutes into the KT vs EGTL game last weekend for people outside korea/maybe just NA can't access.

I much prefer the korean casters, doesn't matter what english casters there is. I just prefer the atmosphere of the korean ones.


edit: im seeing the VLC stream is listed. hopefully that works for the korean stream by OGN

Didn't know TB even followed SC2. But tbh don't really watch his stuff. Guess we'll see today how it works out.

It will be over Skype, and I agree it is a million times less than ideal, casting over skype kind of sucks, especially for something as prestigious as Proleague, but sometimes you have to work with the hand you're dealt, this goes for all parties involved. Hopefully down the line the broadcasts will have studio setups with the commentators together (even if it is offsite, I think that's fine, so long as the crowd/bench/player shots are still in).


Seconded. We'll do the best we can with the tools at our disposal and hopefully everyone will have a good time.

Good to get English broadcast obviously, and casters are good. But Im not really a fan of how it seems Kespa tries to do their own thing and not let the well established entities of broadcasting handle it. This seem to be a last minute solution because I guess TL/EG really wanted an English stream and Kespa really couldnt provide it any other way.

It's nice that KeSPA decided to give you guys the rights to cast in English, but this doesn't change much for me and a few fellow veterans who prefer the Korean cast. Go get them tiger!

Or how about they stand on their own? You people and your casting archons.

I just realized something: try and say "Ben and John and Genna Bain" three times, really fast.

EDIT: Darn, it's not actually that hard because of the back to back "John" and "Jenna" and "Bain" and "Ben"

"John and Jenna Bain and Ben" x 3 times, on the other hand...
