I'm also very happy that China brought team leagues back to the spotlight - it feels like they're trying to fill a hole that has been missing for a while in that regard. My biggest concern is the stagnation of the Korean scene. Feels like every GSL is the same names over and over again. WCS is the Serral/Reynor show but that's a-ok right? | ||

IEM and HSC are still going.I know on the pylon show they said the reason SC2 isn't on Dreamhack or MLG is because of WCS scheduling. If we lost WCS I'm sure we'd get other tourneys like MLG and Dreamhack We should get rid of WCS, or unlock region lock. We can now see that foreigners are on par with or better than Koreans right now. | ||

1) The e-sports viewing community wants what people want in every one of the biggest sports on the planet (soccer, basketball, baseball, hockey, etc.), teams. It is by far more enjoyable to root for a team than an individual player, who other than very rare exceptions, careers don't last long at the top. I think SC2, or SC3 at this point, needs a real team game focus in addition to 1v1, maybe two different versions of the game/balance. 2) New players. Let's be honest, whats the average age on TL, 30 maybe? I'm 36. SC2 is an old mans game haha. The scene needs to draw in younger players to replace the many retirements, and it needs to make big structural changes to draw in younger viewers. 3) Business model - Blizzard needs money to justify more development. I've spent about $140 bucks to play a game for 9 years, not great for them. I'd like to see even single units added to the game every so often. Something new to spur excitement in the game. Of course a full new expansion would be great too. | ||

But SC 2 is certainly not on the rise. We had ASUS ROG back this summer which was awesome but the viewership was so bad, it's really sad to see. The only RTS esport? | ||
