Or did somebody already make that joke (: well the UK doesn't have a professional Football team. It'd be like basketball in the Olympics when the Americans want to win. | ||

IESF asking them to choose sc2 players is like asking FIFA to decide on seeds to the next Wimbledon. It's not really any of their business. As for sc2 replacing BW, or MMA replacing boxing, thats just ridiculous, it's like saying soccer will replace american football because it's more popular globally and growing in popularity. They are completely different games, the only reason SC2 is even affiliated with BW is that blizzard decided to chuck SC in front of SC2 instead of giving it some other name. You can't replace any one of them with the other. One might outlive the other, but being so completely different, replace is basically impossible. You win the thread. Truely the best argument I've seen against my stance and you have changed my mind. | ||

If so did they swap to BW or are they showing both games? I'm a little confused. | ||

According to this post IEF stands for International E-sports Festival and is taking place in Yong-in City. The IeSF stands for International E-Sports Federation and is taking place in Andong City. It is getting frustrating trying to find information about the IeSF, the official website (even the Korean one) is not updated at all. Through the good people that organized the American qualifier I have the original schedule for the tournament: Group Stage: from Friday, Oct 07 1:00am GMT (GMT+00:00) to Friday, Oct 07 9:00am GMT (GMT+00:00) Playoffs: from Saturday, Oct 08 1:00am GMT (GMT+00:00) to Saturday, Oct 08 7:00am GMT (GMT+00:00) Grand Final: Sunday, Oct 09 4:00am GMT (GMT+00:00) It is a shame this tournament is going to be impossible to follow. Having just one player from every country and 40 different countries participating makes this a very unique tournament in our SC2 tournament scene. No coverage ruined what could have been a great jump-start for many nations with small/undeveloped Starcraft communities. | ||

That being said, as an SC2 fan I'm mad at IESF. But they probably have an agreement with KeSPA in exchange for some kind of support from KeSPA, so it's not like they can just ask someone else to pick Korean SC2 players. | ||
