eh i hope the regular osl is concurrent with this otherwise it will take too long :S

That said, good initiatie and probably will be entertaining. But i don't know just how many amateurs will be good enough. The good ones are probably been on the radar of the pro teams so i am not sure how many hidden gems will be uncovered. Hoping to be pleasantly surprised.

This is really cool but....delayed OSL.
Glad the OSL is heading away from the strict progaming license only bullshit though. Hopefully theres some good untapped talent out there.

This won't make a "real" difference, though. It's not like an amateur is suddenly going to be a realistic contender for the championship.

won't make a difference for the osl, sure; for the proscene as a whole, i disagree

if this become a regular thing hopefully they will run it during the final stages of the previous osl so that it doesn't delay anything

Most of us know that the amatures have little chance of getting up there, aside from maybe Effort. But this kind of thing creates great hype and gets them more interested in BW, which is exactly what is needed.

Very very cool.

By the way, what the hell does 'T/N' mean, and why's it used so excessively? I've been on the internet every single day for like 15 years and have never saw that before. lol.

Translator notes if not mistaken.
You mean ESPORTS isnt a synonym for SC2? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ -Proud owner of a Filco Majestouch 2 with Cherry Blue Switches- BW or SC2? Why not both?

i doubt any amateurs will make some noise but it ought to help keep new blood flowing into the scene

edit: ps netizen reactions?


the only netizen reaction I know of is

"MA BONJWA WILL DOMINATE THE OSL NOW"


Can you play with a balaclava ?

edit : a balaclava is not enough, need sunglasses, I could recognize Savior from his eyes only.

T/N=Translator's Notes
Usually used to note uncertainties in translations, or to explain references and things like that. I'm incredibly surprised to hear that you've never seen T/N in 15 years.

it`ll be funny to see boxer or nada competing in this osl since kespa considers them 'amateur' for retiring as programmer

in other words: SC2 stole alot of teams young talent, we need more.

for us it means: awesome more games of BW and fun speculation time for all! And good old "KT need to pick up Newguy57 ect.

can anybody confirm whether or not this new initiative is going to delay the next OSL? Or will there be one sometime soon and these prelim stages will take place near the end in time for the next one at the end of the year? Its a hang of a long time to wait for an OSL if we do have to wait that long...

Otherwise I think this is brilliant! It really going to create a great atmosphere and its going to (hopefully) bring out some new stars... I will lmao if its flash or Jaedong against some amateur in the final, that would be amazing (although I am aware of just how ridiculous that idea is).

BW is getting exciting again!

I wonder if this program will catch enough Korean viewers, though (by the way, is the high school starleague still broadcast on television?)

Let's take a sample from TL:

Would you guys watch games between top amateurs and/or top amateurs vs progamers? Pretend you have access to a reliable stream, the production quality is decent, and the broadcast times are good for your schedule.
