Wow, this is the only noteworthy piece of news in BW since the match-fixing scandal first broke. Might be too little too late to save BW but good job nonetheless to the bosses at OGN.


Lol get a clue

This is amazing news! I can't wait to see Effort, I really hope he plays :D

Awesome because it will bring new talent into Broodwar but I don't think I'll be paying too much attention to the league pre ODT. Still great news

there seems to be confusion about what the tournament is for - my understanding is it's a qualifier for the osl prelims, is that correct?

Besides the usual "Ma Bonjwa will be back" comments:

"Oh? This actually seems good... We shall see how things will go"
"Not bad, but wth, this delays the OSL even more -___-"
"...so we've been waiting all this time for just this? Laaame...."
"Oooh Effort can come back sooner!! This is great!!!"
"It's OGN's version of Superstar K (A show like American Idol) huh..."
"It seems okay. We can find new players through this!"
"This is nice, but it'll take too long... T____T"

etc. etc.

Dunno if it would be a good idea for (Z)EffOrt to participate in this. He may be a bit out of shape after his temporary retirement, but he is still a force to be reckoned with, especially compared to amateurs. Since the main purpose of this league is to bring the spotlight onto some new blood for BW, I think it would be wise to let the amateurs have their moments of glory.

Cool idea.

They should have gotten on this sooner though. I agree with people saying it'll take too long.

I'm just glad they're going to continue doing OSL's.... I was getting scared. But not really..... BW is still HUGE in Korea.

Makes me want to fly out to Korea and try to win an OSL

Seriously though, this is really really exciting news. It'll be cool to see amateurs play against progamers. I'll bet some of them will be able to compete.

Great way to attract a crowd and scout potential progamers!

And giving players a chance to play effort would hinder this how? Giving players a chance to show they have game against someone like Effort is a good thing, Idra got noticed by CJ because he played well against Stork.

True. However, I'm just afraid that a semi-former progamer like Effort has a good chance of roflstomping their way through the league and winning it uncontested. Having someone like Effort in the league seems really risky. On one hand, it can allow competent amateurs to get noticed if they play well against him. On the other hand, there is no guarantee that there won't be a complete roflstomp from him.

I think effort participating would be fine given that the players are all fighting for 12 slots.

This is pretty awesome. I wish the dates weren't spread out so much though, this is going to take a long time :/. I was originally thinking that if Blizzard has their way in the lawsuit the next OSL could be the last OSL unless they start and wrap it up fast then maybe they'd be able to squeeze in 2 more, but if things turn out for the worse this could the last one D: .
