I've reached out to Afreeca regarding an English cast for the Qualifiers! Obviously Tasty and Artosy will be covering the main event as usual.

Who said they wont finance the game?

Who said they would? We could argue this endlessly, you have your opinion and others have theirs.

Either way really hype for another qualifier and next GSL!

When was the last time GSL used maps that weren't part of the standard ladder pool? They had a 4 player map in a couple seasons ago didn't they?

I'm sure they'll add in at least one new map for this season. Korea has to be aware of how long it's been since the ladder map pool was updated, and their giant innovation to Starcraft in the first place was maps, so there's a lot of good reasons to be encouraged that new maps will be in soon.


This isn't brood war. Most new maps & testing was done by TL. The Korean scene is propped up by Blizzard dollars and will disappear in a year or two.


Yeah, it's not BW because there's money to be won.

there's more money in korean BW than SC2 tho

afaik

There's way more money in SC2 tournaments than BW tournaments but also far more money in BW streaming than SC2 streaming.

There's no money in BW tournaments, and there has never been. The lifetime prizepool of BW is 3 years of SC2. Korean BW players are streamers and content creators for AfreecaTV.

Nobody said anything about tourneys though. And the reality is that if you're not a top player you have harsh times getting any monies which would make this a valid long time career move.
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

And he was a pro-player back in 2012, I think the only truly new player since the 2012-13 switch and the last Kespa draft is Patience? (Maybe Armani too I don't remember if he switch with Samsung or joined after)

Edit: NVM I thought Zoun was a SKT/kespa player from the start, he wasn't, so Zoun it is!

Prince is a new player who qualified for the GSL last year.

Players like gyulzzing, NightMare, or Percival might be the new Korean blood, but they are still quite far from the top, and without infrastructure and the reduced number of big tournament they can participate in (or even qualify), I'm not sure they will be able to progress enough to do anything more than qualify for the first round of GSL. Maybe the new Code A will give them more chances to play big games.
