I'd love to see happy, Youngwha, seed, losira etc, at foreign events It's not a wise business decision to sponsor a entire team immediately. Sponsoring the two best players on the team seems like a much better idea. If the deal goes well, and co-operation between IM and SteelSeries is good, I would bet that they will extend to include most, if not all of the team. | ||

Which is pretty huge considering how long the game has been out. No. They've been dominating the game for like 5-6 months. Legends such as NaDa, Flash and Jaedong have been amazing for many years. Flash won his first title when he was 15, for God's sake. | ||

MVP has been pretty much hands down the best Terran in the world ever since he destroyed GSL Jan, 10 months ago. There are 6 GSL wins between these two players, and there has only been 10 GSL's (including Open seasons). These have been hands down, the most dominant players of their respective races since the competitive scene in Korean SC2 started up last October. You don't have to win every major championship to be a legend. | ||

You don't have to win every major championship to be a legend. I think his point is that "legend" carries a different meaning for anyone who has played an RTS game besides SC2. The game hasn't even been out long enough for someone to be called a legend by conventional definitions. | ||

Flash won his first title when he was 15, for God's sake. Not really, they've been dominating for almost a year. If they didn't win the GSL its because they weren't in the finals. Excluding the few early knock outs that don't seem to happen anymore. Also, you don't have to win your first title at 15 to be a legend. MVP/Nestea are dominating just as hard as BW legends did if not harder, and they too were humans with slumps. | ||

And I'd shit all over your comparison of them with BW legend but I really don't want to start a flame war so I'm gunna shut up now. | ||

It's pretty obvious that Steelseries is only intrested to put their logo where the viewer numbers are and not where they could be. I don't blame them but they shouldn't get credit for stuff they don't do. | ||
