1 - Why didn't Kespa just call the streaming site?
2 - I bet they stopped it so Korea wouldn't be saddened by Nada getting owned.

Is there still any question about whether Kespa is helping or hurting the growth of eSports? To me, there isn't.

Much easier and faster to call their player, who they control, than trying to shut down a stream.

At least we can count ourselves lucky that Kespa didn't get all butthurt in the beginning of game 2 which tunred out to be absolutely amazing.

once i see official ESL vods that haven't been edited much, a lot of my suspicion of KESPA will diminish...
But really, this is EXACTLY something kespa would do. All of these politics with KESPA are pretty upsetting -_-

KESPA's an idiot. This is gonna cause so much bad press. Of course Koreans are going to get a hold of everything Starcraft related. In all honesty, Activision-Blizzard has the money to buy out the entire industry and all the pros. Then they can ensure an extremely healthy e-sports future.

Now with a VOD up, can someone translate the interview at around 1h 46m?

Kespa is acting really stupid, ruining it for themselves, but there's also another thing

I can understand that Bliz wants to make money with Esports with a game they created, but they should allow others like Kespa to make money of it as well or Esports will never be as big as it can be.
If it would actually be very profitable to set up a SC2 team as a company, soon more than enough sponsors would show up buying these Korean pro players out of Kespa's grip for their team? Or do they have insane contracts with Kespa that keep them from joining any other team forever?

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

You heard wrong. They agreed to a European/American stream and someone restreamed it to Korea. How they didn't see it coming in the first place is another story.

Exchanging a pseudo monopoly for an unquestioned monopoly is not going to drive a vibrant e-sports scene. KeSPA has done some dirty crap, but their track record is much more impressive.

take said: so rice u know whats up, whats the problem right now?

rice: they just wanted to make the showmatch for the crowd, but they had to cancel it because someone in korea spotted the stream, we got a call from korea and kespa made much trouble and the game had to end right now because the showmatch should be only watched on the gamescom and should not be streamed.

take: kespa is a korean esport organisation, they do contracts with the gamers so they may get penaltys and problems and thats why they had to stop


sry for my bad english


Well even if that is roughly the translation, it's definitely Kespa's fault.

It's basically ESLs fault. There's some raging on german e-sport sites too, but mainly about ESL. There were some people who went there only to see showmatch you know. ESL should have known the stream gets restreamed to korea...

If this is true that's proof enouh (not that we had that already) that they were full of shit when they said he gg'd because of network issues.
