TL Live Report ‏ @TeamLiquidLIVE
So, May: Hybrid, Oct: full SC2, if things go as planned

+ they're finding a way of integrating SC2 teams into Oct PL. That plus the fact that the next OSL is not confirmed (although highly likely) to be SC2, just basically means that KeSPA players will probably be in a state of limbo for awhile having to juggle between two games.

I guess the last question left to ask is will any of the KeSPA players be trying out for Code A next season.

GOMTV should become KeSPA's new partner after MBC quit BW.

Well, at least some more concrete news is starting to come out of this.

Hybrid PL in May. Full SC2 PL in October, with GSL/GSTL teams.

And cool to see OGN plan on preparing for English broadcasts. Moletrap, anyone? lmao.

TeamLiquidLIVE OGN: We're preparing foreign broadcasts for SC II, as we've done for other game leagues (LOL)

If Moletrap is involved I will be alittle unhappy...

What really makes me sad is that the only reason bw's life is threatened is directly because of sc2. Not because the game has gotten boring or stale (quite the contrary actually)

Oh well.. not like life is always fair anyways... at least were gonna gave some games coming our way with a hybrid (even if the quality of games are gonna tank)

Weren't there already cracks in BW, seeing as how there was the period of not having enough sponsors for all the teams and needing to disband and combine some of them?

From everything I've heard, there is practically no competition for money in Korea from SC2, so while the international market makes BW look unsustainable, seeing as how Korea was where all the money was coming from anyways, it's hard for me to imagine that SC2 really brought about that downfall. At best, you could say SC2 provided a legitimate alternative plan to an already (slowly) declining BW.

alternate days and not matches. please

I'm ideally hoping for 3 rounds (1 round BW 1 round sc2 1 round BW) and figure out something good for playoffs (like day1 bw day 2 sc2 day3 bw could lead to people being shitty practicing half and half. But at least the teams could dedicate people to playing one full time and not suck).

OGN needs to hunt down Cholera and drag him over to Korea for the twilight days of BW.

Not gonna happen. They need people to watch both games, not just pick the day of the game they prefer. Think about it, this is pretty much 100% to get the Korean BW fans more exposed to SC2. What better way to do that than to intersect it with BW.
