I'm not happy about this. I like watching both games, but now all the BW people seem to slowly be moving over and taking over Sc2. Leenock needs to win a GSL before this happens! People for ForGG and Hyun are proving that BW A-teamers, whether playing at their top skill or not, can easily be very successful in Sc2.

I am interested in the "5 months of just SC2" part of this, because I was hearing that most BW pros would want a full year before entering pro competition in SC2.

If these guys come in and rape, just imagine when the real A+ Aces come over.

I wouldn't worry about Leenock, he's younger than most of the pros either way. He has more time to really succeed in SC2, if he has the talent and the drive he can probably compete with upcoming BW A-Teamers, but it's so early to tell, and who knows how the game will be balanced for Leenock's playstyle in HotS and LotV.

Most of them will probably do the same thing as fOrGG did.

Retire from BW
practice incognito during a few month
Reveal your playing sc2
Try Code A.

On a side note, I can't wait to see how are they going to do, just so the elephant in the room debate can finally be settled.

Wasn't Leenock an amateur BW player? (same with Jjaki for that matter)

I seem to recall reading that somewhere.

On the plus side, the foreign tournaments may reignite GoForASwimHero.

This will be interesting. Now while there is so many foreign players in korea to compete in GSL, the next time Code A qualifiers will happen there will be loads of BW pros haha. Naniwa, Jinro, Destiny, Naama, Deathangel, Sase & Idra will get owned once again... and fail to even qualify, unless they get the easy invite to Code S...

One factor- has anyone seen how well the BroodWar Proleague is doing this season? Answer is very well.


According to Milki's its doing like 1/3rd the viewership that it had in 2007 and isn't getting that many. I don't want bw to die but it seems all the people in korea who actually can find stuff out and I don't see why fxoboss would lie either and with milkis saying the same thing well doesn't look good.

I enjoy both bw/sc2 and looks like this might be the last of bw unless milkis/boss are just playing a joke which again I highly doubt.

lol 1/3 of 2007 .... like its bad?
Latest proleague finals:
The fact that mass viewership was recorded by teenagers rather than people in their 20’s is evidence that Brood War remains popular in following generations since the first Proleague finals in 2003. The final set between Flash and Best reflected the most response from viewers, achieving a max viewership ratio of 2.514% (21% of males aged 16-19). In other words, 2 out of every 10 male Korean high school students watched the last set of the Proleague final.


Compare it to GSL when you have more foreigners in the audience than koreans (wtf?). BW seems to be more secure for station like OGN or big sponsor. Even if its 1/3 or 1/5(whateva) of its former glory.
