This is why Nada made his gigantic speech yesterday at group selections. I am sure he is close with a lot of BW players, coaches, etc. and knows that there are tons of monsters practicing SC2 in the shadows right now.

In four months, the entire top class of players could be B-teamers and 98% of Code S players could be out of GSL entirely if these Brood War players switch.

What did Nada say?


Being proud to be the first generation of SC2 pros, and conducting themselves accordingly.

*eta* translation: get it while you can heh


Nice job connecting the dots, if you don't mind posted this opinion on reddit/sc, I think you make a strong point and it needs to be heard :p.

If you want to blame someone for "this", it's the lack of korean corporations willing to sponsor BW teams

Very unexpected if A teamers are practicing sc2 as well. I can't really say if it's good or bad. I guess I'd call it cool? lol

If they decide to swich there is nothing all the hardcore BW fans can do but i just hope people don't get angry at the guys that like SC2.. it's not our fault and most os us don't even care..

Yeah i would like to see Flash living up to the hype in SC2, slaying all the nerds in his path to glory, but if that doesn't happen i will still be happy to see my foreign heroes do it against the koreans..

I like where SC2 is right now and I'm not sure that bringing Kespa in the equation will benefit SC2 and foreign SC2 that much, they are knowned for their hard rules and they will not try and bridge the gap between our communities.. I actually think BW needs this more then SC2! Altho SC2 in tv would be amazing for korean SC2 teams and players!

There's no point in arguing what games is better and who kills who.. if they decide to switch or play both games it's their decision and they won't need our opinion for it..


You dont think this will benefit the korean scene lmao? With most of the korean teams suffering financially besides like 2 or 3, this will be huge for the korean scene where now most players will have a salary

It was bound to happen sooner or later, I'd like to see how they perform.

I think the teamhouses will be a big factor, though. With the possible exceptions of IM and SlayerS, I don't think any SC2 house is at all comparable to the KeSPA training caves. Unless the SC2 houses really step up the intensity, I can't see them competing.

I think Jaedong expressed some interest in an eventual switch, but that was well over a year ago

I've got a stupid question... Do we have any idea who teams A B & C are? Is it just a translation thing or are they hidding it on purpose?

Anyway, seems like a really good news to me, cannot wait to see those guys compete!

Oh wow :O This could be some of the biggest news since sc2 came out.

I really do hope they play both games for some time to come though. I don't watch too much BW but I'd happily watch more

Just a thought for all the Flash fans... have you not considered that he might decide to play Protoss or Zerg instead? Perhaps if he does as well in sc2 it will be Terran tears instead. Many players did switch races between the games. (Idra)

On the highest level of competition only established bodies (houses) can ditch out the best practice, those teams were contributing to each players succes almost in a same measurea player was contributing to himself. And frankly SKT, KT, CJ, Khan etc are teams that have so much experience and work ethic that would wipe out current SC2 houses sooner or later and they have real sponsoring to back it up. Jangbi was prepared by KHAN and he won OSL. Its not only about players but the environment, and BW teams have the best possible.

how is this hurting esports???
this is a HUGE step


Yeah, but backwards. ;/ I really hope this doesn't go through. Currently Sc2 is not even remotely as good as BW and doesn't show any sign of improvement if Blizzard doesn't fix some of the fundamental flaws. They won't even implement LAN, for god's sake...

Fuck this shit. I hope KeSPA does not betray BW...


Not what I meant.
KeSPA keeping the BW teams in doubt is hurting BW and it's hurting SC2.
They should make their decisions for now and live with it. They can always make the transition later it's not like SC2 is suddenly going to die.

Well IdrA switched because Artosis convinced him that Z would be the strongest race. It's possible that he would change race, but I doubt it if he ever does switch.

If this happens, I can see a lot of MBC players/former players going to TSL with Lee. Seems like a plausible idea. TSL only has about six core players and could take in a few more.

This is huge news for SC2 in Korea D: Can't wait to see if some current BW A-teamers make the switch and how well they will do.

Rofl you say many players that switched races when they switched games yet you name one. Look at all the players that switched from bw that still play the same race: nestea, mvp, nada, mc, julyzerg, boxer, ret, tyler, jinro, and many more i cant think of

Flash, Jaedong and ofc Bisu should play protoss when/if they switch to SC2 to make the Sad Zealot happy.

Yeah, if anything, we will have even more Terrans, because the general feeling is, they are the strongest race, right now.

Considering the way Flash plays the game, I'd say it's very unlikely he would switch.

Id be more worried that Jaedong or Bisu is going to play terran... Ive think ive read a quote somewhere from bisu saying that he would pick terran if he is going to play for money and protoss if he is playing for fun.. (with the current balance)
