@ KeepYaCoolBro

Im pretty surprised u didnt get a temp ban or at least a warning for your post. Magnificent display of ignorance and idiocy, in my humble opinion.

@ Big Jim Shade

I think it has already been agreed upon that the legal rights of both sides in this mess is pretty unclear since there was no cases like this before. What is still in discussion though, is both the moral issues of Blizz pissing on their long-time benefactor, refusing to acknowledge the importance as well as (positive) impact of Kespa on Starcraft, and e-Sport as a whole.

Also, i am extremely doubtful that Blizz's action will benefit the e-Sport scene as a whole. This looks even more ridiculous since Blizz has been singing "for the future of e-Sport" for a good while now.
Look. Only Forward. See. Only Victory.

Kespa who? Who needs Kespa? I certainly don't. I watch great games on GOMTv and there is enough free streaming of quality matches going on. Some power hungry old game playing Korean group wants to dictate the "scene" is just laughable to me. Get off it. There are pro SC2 teams and leagues formed and playing. The train has already left and it looks like KeSpa is trying to catch a running train at this point. Anyone notice how contrite it sounded, yet how many times did they tell you of "10 years". Move on, SC1 is an old lovable game, but the future is SC2. KeSpa is an idiotic organization.


I watch both SC1 and SC2, SC1 is much more entertaining. New does not equal better.

I find it amusing that KeSPA and Blizzard are attracting all this attention over the Starcraft II intellectual property while the Chinese government is quietly endorsing (at least quiet on this side of the ocean) a major, major Warcraft III tournament and nobody has a word to say about it.

I belive the law in China regarding IP is different than in South Korea, and thus is a lost cause for Blizzard.
