This should, without a doubt, be the main talking point of the entire show. There are many angles to cover about it:
1. Where does it leave GOM (Artosis) 2. Where does it leave foreigners right now and a year or 2 (everyone) 3. Where does this leave foreign casters not named Tastosis? Will we see Day9, Apollo or anyone head to Korea to cast the Kespa/OGN stuff?

And all of them speculations. It'll be a proper topic for discussion after they know what they're discussing.

Except we don't know shit right now because they haven't announced anything.
I say spend a few minutes on it but no more unless they know more and are willing to release details.

Well all of the what if/when the BW pro's switch talk is actually about to become reality within a couple of months. So there is a fair bit to talk about.

I agree with this guy, we don't know what is being announced. It could be anything and we don't know how the BW pros will affect the scene. For all we know, they could bring the game up to the next level, but a lot of the current player could step up their game as well.
As for the casters, why would they rush over to Korea when they are making money here? MLG and IPL are not going to Korea.

Well we know the big lines, next PL season will be a mix between BW and SC2. All BW teams are practicing SC2 and so on. I don't see however, what there is to discuss about. They talked a million times about BW players switching over. When the Elephant in the Room was written, when ForGG joined oGs, when HyuN started playing and joined TSL and even on other various occasion. I have pretty much heard what they had to say about the topic.

Not only foreigners, but the Korean players. If they start some kind of dual tournament (BW+SC2) none of the current SC2 teams could compete (not to mention a foreign team ). There is just so much that we don't know and we just have to wait another freaking long week Even though I'd love to see BW legends play SC2, I'm worried about the people in the current scene. So many could start droping out because there are just to many competitors. I think it would be boring to see the same few people every time in both games.
