SC1 and SC2 are totally different game. if you don't pass courage in SC1 absolutely doen't mean than you won't pass the top 32 in GSL.

That's my point exactly. Less skill in progames = less skills necessary to win = less enjoyment from watching.

Then why are you even posting here? If you don't like SC2, don't watch it. You don't need to continually post in SC2 topics about how you think it's a worse game.

edit: oops, didn't see your last post. in any event, stop doing this please.

Because SC2 is what is dominating the headlines now in terms of current TL (team, admin, and poster) time investment. Therefore it is the direction we are heading it. What I am saying is we are jumping head first into this. On the one hand it is not my place to judge people for their dreams and aspirations, but on the other hand I am entitled to an opinion (I don't feel like I am inappropriate in my delivery). Like many opinions of a regressive minority in previous times, it is also true that the fight is futile and in the end people will do what they want to do. I said before that I'd not post in SC2 topics but every newspost that reveals more and more intention to devote resources and manpower to it... it feels like it drains my soul a little more. Sorry for bothering people.

P.S. not watching it is not the problem, I already do that. It's seeing the community I've come to appreciate and enjoy changing to something I disagree with.

First of all, SC2 is a brand new game.

2nd, Nazgul has been to Korea to play SC1, and he made it onto TV.

3rd, I may not be able to take games in SC1 off korean pros today, but I have done it before I quit playing SC1 in late 2006.

Not like I never played SC1 before you know...

This is not true.

ESTRO has always been like this, and long ago it had a lot of foreigners, so I wouldn't say its entirely unprecedented

What do you mean it's not true, I was in ESTRO (called AMD) in the period you are talking about, but where is the foreign team in all of this?

wasn't there a lot of foreigners in estro?

Yes there were a lot of foreigners in Estro and so you are correct in the fact that Estro was friendly/supportive towards foreigners as separate players. The important factor here is that the foreigners were part of the Estro team. That however is not what the OP is stating.

The point in the OP is that it's a Foreign Team and a Korean Team (so 2 teams where Estro was only 1 team and a Korean one at that) working this closely together. I would assume oGs management can't dictate what the Liquid` players do and vice versa. Everything will be done in joint cooperation and on mutual agreement. Whereas Estro could completely decide what their foreign players should do as they were an integral part of their team.

You see the difference in the two situations?

Of course not. I am well aware of the abilities of the TL staff (especially the founders). This is why TL is such a great site. I tried to make it obvious that I am not hating on you for your lack of abilities. But there is a reason why you guys aren't playing in the OSL right now, and why you are going to Korea for SC2 and not SC1. I didn't mean to come off as disrespectful to you, Nazgul, and other players that used to be in Korea playing the game that I love. I have a lot of respect for you. Also Nony, Rekrul, Leg, Idra, Rek, and every other player that has. But I find it hard to support this move to SC2. That's my main problem. Your 3rd point is the one that is most exemplary of my stance - SC is very different now than it was in 2006, or 2001, or SC2.

I said in an earlier post in this thread, GL to all of you. I really do wish you the best. But more than anything I wish for SC to live on forever and to not lose any steam. SC2 is a direct enemy of this.

still honestly not seeing why you are posting then. If you still disagree with the game and the scene, why are you still following? There are so many games that you can follow, why is team-liquid forcing you to like SC2. If you disagree with their move to Korea, it might be the best just to keep it to yourself instead of starting an unneeded shit storm on their glorious parade.
