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. | ||

 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. | ||

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

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||
