They're just practicing for SC2 as well as BW. in denial or what? Its been posted that the next PL will be stararcft 2 after this current season and they want Kespa to hurry up and announce it so they can start preparing properly, if thats not pointing towards the change happeneing soon then nothing is. BW teams are expecting an annoucement soon to clarify. Flash according to slashers twitter is already practicing. | ||

Put MarineKing against Bisu, Flash vs. MVP, etc. and find a gigantic stadium. Watch the money roll in. Gosh that would be so awesome, I don't have a job and I'd pay for that. I didn't think this would come so soon, I knew it was inevitable but the fact that's happening right now is pretty insane. It's so bittersweet | ||

People realize this, but you also have to be blind to not realize that this is the start of a (slow?) transition into full time SC2 for BW pros and Kespa. | ||

People that followed the BW scene know that the top players did pretty much nothing but play BW and then chill for an hour or two before bed. There is NO way they are going to be practicing BW and SC2 at the same time, they either try to get ahead in SC2 or decide to stick with BW while it's (sadly) going down. | ||

People need 2 realize that not BW is dying but Esports in korea. Esports can only die if sponsors can't make money off of it. Sponsors are making money off of SC2. The international companies I mentioned, again, have the most to gain. It's not about BW vs SC2. It's about money vs more money. | ||

SC2 has the potential to become even larger than BW is Korea. I know it is great but we must let it go. The impact of so many new teams to SC2 pro sense will create so only good things. More tournaments, more sponsors and more nail biting moments we fans can enjoy and smile days after. God, if you don't know anything about BW please don't post shit like this. Thank you sc2 fans. | ||

As long as money is staying in e-sports, it doesn't really matter what game it is, e-sports will continue to grow. | ||

He said BW isnt dying but it is slowly, the PL change is a blow which is contributing to it.. I for one hope it doesnt, but if the major leageus like PL change then what tourneys are going to be left for BW? | ||
