this is why I always said it was a mistake from blizzard to make an enemy of KESPA, they should have made a greater effort to create a partnership, try to pull KESPA into the sc2 scene


I understand KeSPA being frustrating in having to pay royalties to Blizzard in order to broadcast and create a competitive scene after going for so many years with BW without such restrictions. But it makes sense in a corporate standpoint: if KeSPA is using a product to engage in a money making business, the creator of the game definitely should get royalties. Blizzard is bigger now than they were in BW and they have to exert that right as a company. KeSPA is just not willing to adapt and are sore about it.


You have a lot to learn young one.


How so its a pretty straight forward issue. Nice troll post.

Why do koreans have to 'illegally' stream the game? Are they banned from watching the official IEM stream or even glhf.tv's stream?

?? Why would they be banned?

EDIT: Wait, I see you asking other users. I think point was that restreaming it can be considered illegal in any case, but watching it is fine.

So to reiterate for everyone, Kespa is trying to prevent blizzard (all sc2 tournaments that they dont control) from recieveing the publicity and prestige of having one of their progamers (and one of their most famous ones to boot) playing and promoting their game. I would assume they are not happy with Nada playing at all, and the afreeca stream excuse was just them jumping at any opportunity to deny Nada playing.

This makes sense from a business standpoint, if steve wozniak still worked for apple, you wouldn't want him giving a live demo at a microsoft tradeshow about windows 7 if you were apple's CEO would you.

Sucks for us tho

I think the Korean Government blocks a lot of websites, not sure.
Lee Jae Dong proved that a focus on mechanics and execution could solve problems in the StarCraft game strategy.

No they aren't banned from watching it. KeSPA is restricted from broadcasting it. They are just being sore about Blizzard and displaying it on a public scene. Its kind of childish, its basically telling a kid he can't eat candy so they refuse to eat anything at all.

This Q3 match is so boring, all they're doing is farming armor and HP and ammo and no one is actually getting fragged, how can anyone find this fun?

no, but octoshape must blow complete balls for them. therefore its most logical to watch a restream from someone with a smooth stream.

I believe Idra's returned his KESPA license to focus on SC2. As far as I know no currently active KESPA progamer is allowed to play SC2 publically.

Idra played in a bw qualifier a couple of months ago after weeks/months of only playing SC2.

So kespa basically wants to control the internet.

I don't see how the koreans just couldn't watch the ESL stream?

Don't think it was illegal considering law, but for the Kespa rules it's illegal.

Then why would that random guy in korea have to illegally stream the showmatch on his own stream if Koreans aren't blocked from IEM?
