TeamLiquidLIVE KeSPA rep presenting Blizz with a certificate that recognizes SC II as an official KeSPA game.

LOL so much lip service.

The best thing about this press conference is Waxangel's coverage. I'm glad he's as cynical of the "look at how friendly we all are!" message, as I am.

they alternate between games for each set.


I really don't like this idea. They are different games. It just doesn't make sense to me to do something like this.

While I agree the idea is terrible, it might work maybe (but probably not).

This being said, I feel that language was a little much for the sentiment at hand. I understand its emotional to see your game slowly phase out it looks like, but I think we can agree that being a little more mature about the situation would be good.

Does anyone have a list of the existing Official Kespa games? I'm not sure what it means for SC2 to become a part of that. Is it just BW? I took a look at the kespa site but it looks like they haven't updated their English site in years.

They really need to trash that hybrid idea, because it lowers the quality of BOTH games. They need to finish out OSL, and maybe 1 more round of PL with BW to keep the players something to play for/reason to practice. While I having like small SC2 exhibitions or something. Then just fully transition to SC2..


I get the business decision for doing it (they want to eeze the BW fans into SC2 slowly) but it really will hurt the BW quality games way more than SC2. Everyone knows the eventual result so which game do you think they will practice more.

Listening to State of the Game.

Artosis knows nothing about this conference, which he claims is strange since he is usually aware of stuff in the scene months in advance.

Most of the hosts think that most of this conference will be rather generic PR statements about expanding esports and cooperating and catering the fans yada yada yada. Although they speculate that perhaps there might be some info about the upcoming Proleague.

All in all, not much info discussed on State of the Game. Just basic speculation.

Well, guess SotG was right. Most of this was just PR. I'm disappointed that they haven't announced any concrete Proleague plans other than just mentioning that it will include SC2.

Really? did you want july to shoot fireworks around the conference room?

SC2 has been accepted by KESPA... How is that underwhelming?

A year ago people would have laughed (some still will) if you mentioned KESPA and SC2 in the same sentence.

This. From the live text it doesn't seem like this has been worthwhile in any way whatsoever in terms of settling any debate.

All we know now is exactly what we knew before. Hope the Q&A will change that.

Would it be better if they just completely switched to SC2 and drop BW all together?

ofc keeping BW would be your ideal answer but is mixed better than BW gone.

sure I prefer it to be only BW but its pretty much impossible now, but even only SC2 is much better than this mixed league.
