Amazing news, the fact you can add your own unique styles and overlays to the cast is pretty important. Having map scores, names, statistics all in Korean would piss people off eventually.

As long as the caster prepare I don't have any issues, should be fun. If we get "oh idk who Wookie is, never seen him play" I'm going to be sad

I'll try to post/talk about the players as much as possible in the chat tonight, if such things happen.

I have trouble supporting KeSPA in anything they do. There is always something dirty/underhanded they are doing behind the scenes.

Just keeps getting better. Very cool. Though I miss Sayle a little bit, maybe he can join in on a cast one of these days! :D

We've come a looooong way.

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.

Will there be anyway to get to the full broadcast VOD without getting result spoilers.... Last week I has to scroll through the past broadcasts to find the 6 hour long vod... Whilst doing this i could see how many sets were played due to individual vods been listed, (as in getting to the entire broadcast I saw that 4 sets were played in KT vs EG-TL, and 7 were played in STX v SK)

If by wrong, you meant 100% right, then you are correct. I believe his statements were to the effect that there would be NO OGN ENGLISH cast of the Proleague (contrary to prior expectations or agreements between OGN and Kespa). And lo and behold, we have confirmation today that there will be no OGN English cast of Proleague. And this whole thing smells like Kespa started throwing it together around the time DoA broke the news to us, which would be consistent with Kespa suddenly reneging on whatever prior "agreement" they had with OGN.

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).

Oh, it's you again. I'm sorry that you don't find SC2 as exciting as I do. You have my pity.
