Source is in Korean, however it was linked by a community manager from Riot Games. So I guess it's legit!
Since I cannot read Korean, I don't know what else is brought up in the text. I don't want to seem like someone who expects people to do stuff for me, but I'd really appreciate a translation of this!
The interesting thing is that since CJ is a team that can only play in certified KeSPA-leagues, does that mean that a KeSPA sponsored LoL league is in the works?
I also hope that none of the current CJ SC-players are planning to switch games now that BW is being forced in to decline.

Hi, let me see if I can read that for you:
If I am correct it talks about Team Bubble, They won the NLB tournament and then proceeded to lose their chance to play in the OGN summer tournament because they lacked a player for their seed match vs Team OP. 3 of their players have singed with CJ Entus (there is a lot of players listed here so I might be mistaken) and I think the players that have been singed are:
정희철 (Jeong Huicheol) Pecko
김윤재 (Kim Junjeh)LongPanda
김범석 (Kim BomSong) Kkinsh
김준섭 (Kim Junsog) emboob
윤승택 (Jun Seung Deg) Eryuk
(apologize if I spelled the names wrongly)
They seemed to think these were, atm, thought to be the best Amatuer Bot Duo, and one of the best Solo Tops players, the other 2 are players known from the Korean ladder, and also known as generally ok guys.
One of the chiefs in CJ Entus stated that LoL was something that had become more than just a short term thing, and that the team would do a training camp starting in the end (?) of May. He also said that he was happy that they were able to pick up such players, and hoped that this might show teenagers that amateur players can make it, and give them hope.
Also worth mentioning that one of the links (right below the Copyright thing) that StarTale has picked up a new player ST_Fine
(apologize if I am horribly mistaken, my korean is still very poor but readings such as these helps me practice)

Yeah, I'd say so.

Go Entus! I was really sad about how Team Bubble was disqualified due to insec acting independently, now they have another chance for victory in the upcoming Champions Summer.

8000+ people packed that place for the finals. I saw the VoDs and it was crazy how passionate those fans were about LoL.
Not to mention the GSL Code S Finals were going on at about the same time.

not to mention that place is meant for 5000 people not 8000, was pretty darn full there
|
Ah yea, wishing for some CJ dominance in the LoL scene.
|
They better be ready to do a lot of this: (-_-)
CJ fighting, though! Glad to see this.

Not a bad move for CJ Entus, considering how big League of Legends has gotten. I don't get it, but I guess many people do.
|
You wouldn't by any chance have anymore pictures showing the audience at the Championships final would you? I am not subscried to the OGN tournament and cannot see the VODS but I am very interested in seeing the crowd reaction and audience size during the finals. If anyone can point me to a video of the above I would appreciate it very much.
And a last question as well. Since GSL and the Championship Finals were going on at the same time, does anyone have the numbers of the viewers for both tournaments avilable for comparison?
|
I am going to bed now, but if no one else has replied when I wake up Ill try and figure it out for you.
|
next step, all BW teams get LoL teams as well and LoL Proleague will be created. That would be awsome. Flash will practice for 3 games lol
|
i didnt even expect such popularity in Korea
I mean, Koreans love grinding (particularly in MMOs) and at the same time there are very competitive koreans. both play a lot of games so LoL being popular makes sense i guess
|
Proleague will be Set1 BW, Set2 SC2 and Ace match LoL
|
=X well it was nice while it lasted america/european dominance. jkjk! Gogo CJ entus gluck in your endeavor!
