Kennigit confirmed it a few post above yours. He's actually got sway, so he's able to provide a wonderful and informed source of information for us

honestly, how can anyone say Kespa cares about esport after they pulled the plug on a showmatch organized by the esl. If it was a blizzard showmatch or a blizzard tournament or even a blizzard related event, but this is just saying "fuck you" to the community in korea and outside of it

how does a random stream hurt kespa?
because nada is a poster boy of bw (kespa). if koreans saw nada playing sc2 there would be a revolt against bw or something.
so kespa used their power of revoking nada's license or something to stop the match.

If that was an call from Wemade managers, then we have to change topic title. Cause it would be unfair to call it "kespa"

On a good note, NaDa fucking played starcraft 2 and he did an amazing game 2. Little exposure is better than none ;D I think this might be huge 8D down the line.

Kespa made the call, therefore I personally blame kespa.

Cause a random stream of sc2 with a big star in the sc is like giving the Korean people a taste of something new. Just like drug dealers give out a "taste" to let people get hooked. They do not want the public to accept sc2 through one of their teams players.

Uh...
Kespa -> WeMade -> Canceled showmatch is still Kespa's doing.

someone needs to make a video translation of the interview after the game, the guy mentioned kespa a few times but it was all in german ;/

If its in your contract then yes you can't or else you lose your money. Its that way in any sport.

he didn't say much worth mentioning. Basically tried to explain who Kespa is to the uniformed audience after the news that kespa shut the stream down.

anywhere to watch games 1 and 2?

Sooner or later SC2 will become popular in Korea, certainly after both expansions are released and the balance issues are cleared up, new maps etc. Kespa are just fighting an uphill battle with this attitude.

This is going to hurt Kespa more then it will hurt Blizzard. Both are being childish, but this is preposterous. This will only get people good and mad, common people like us hate power plays more then anything else.

No one forces anyone to do anything. They an easily quit the team and move on to their regular lives if they so choose.

I wonder what ESL or Blizzard has to say about this. I hope day9 and appollo can give us more information later on. I knew it was kind of weird when Nada just GGed out of the blue like that. Even if he was losing hes the type of player who stays till the very end with the never say die attitude. ESL should have really talked in English when they did the interview.......instead of German.

Anyone heard anything about replays of the match?

It is not so easy. Starcraft is mostly what they know. There are some that concentrate in school, but for the most part, practicing for 12-13 hours a day without studying will destroy their career opportunities. Of course they can still go back to school, but I am not an expert on Korean culture and society.
