The only ones who could have saved it was Blizzard but they didn't listen.

Oh well, more ex-pros for Afreeca BW !! :D

I wish them the best with their future! I'll remember Light for his 40-60minute TvT's in BW atleast.

Who else thinks that the best place Flying could learn English would be on a foreign team after a "retirement"?

I'm not convinced of that, honestly.

If Blizzard did everything perfectly, would the current situation (which is actually still pretty good for an esport, mind you) be 100% avoided?

I doubt it.

I'm not saying Blizzard doesn't bear blame, but we knew literally years ago that there were too many Korean SC2 players. 16 teams was just an unsustainable number, especially with the rise of MOBAs. We will see it shrink back to 8 teams and probably see at least 5-10 more retirements until we finally get to a reasonable level of players in Korea again.

What if they are banking on these retirements. Removing competition through.....alternative means....

It's sad. Flying and Light both were part of Woongjin's A-team, and Flying has had some individual league success too. It's not like they were unsuccessful in the game, and someone like Light always has very good potential.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.
