Jaedong, flash, bisu and stork should switch and form their own team.

(P)GuemChi hasn't played in this season of Proleague yet. He temporarily retired from BW to go soul searching and ended up playing SC2 for a bit, even attempting to qualify for one of the GSL Open Seasons. However, he returned to BW and rejoined Woongjin Stars soon afterwards.

Since he hasn't been active this season and has some SC2 experience, perhaps he may be a candidate for a BW pro turned SC2 pro.

Once the top Brood War pros switch over, there will be no one left to stop Bisu from taking his rightful throne as the OSL champion.

haven't watched bw since early 2010, but i would love to see some of my old favorites give sc2 a try. Leta has a very aggressive mentality that would be absolutely brilliant in sc2.

I know he won't in 40 days but damn I will be so excited when The Tyrant himself finally will make the switch to SC2, also I'm pretty stoked about everyone else switching from BW to SC2

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:
Show nested quote +
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.


You are talking proleague finals. I am talking proleague regular matches. Just saying I trust the words of people in korea like boss or milki's who reads the websites all the time.

Again they (milkis unless I am mis reading what he is saying) even said as well that other then finals, viewership isn't doing as good. So yeah I forgot to mention that my bad where the finals is a small period compared to the actual proleague season. I wouldn't be sad at all though if milki's was wrong and let alone boss was and bw ended up still going strong for a few more years but just doesn't seem the case. I want to see jaedong win 2 more championships minimum
When I think of something else, something will go here

The Tyrant eh? =( I dont' see any Tyrant in his eyes anymore. Wake up Mr.Dong! Anyways, I'd like to see him switch only when and if BW scene dies. Not sooner
I am a great believer in luck. The harder I work the luckier I am.

Right, BW is definatley doing awful. Number #1 in 13-29 age bracket is terrible.

It's not actually interesting, this is the Starcraft 2 forum. It's assumed the majority here are watching SC2, and want to watch the best SC2. So we'll all be happy with better people in SC2, regardless of whatever is up with BW.

I find it funny that people in this thread think that GOM only caters to SC2 fans and OGN only caters to BW fans while being owned by CJ by stock percentage. You can see the bias from here.
It's either the holes of my nose are getting smaller or my fingers are getting bigger. /// Always Rooting for the Underdog. Hyuk/Sin/Jaehoon/Juni/Hyvva/Hoejja/Canata //// Hiding in thread somewhere where BW is still in it's pure form here on TL.

Should we start the countdown? xd

And to all the naysayers - You can say that the game is figured out, the best players are currently playing etc. etc.
All I can say to that is just wait and see.

There is plenty of reason to believe it. To quote user "fr1tz" from Reddit:

"It's amazing how there are still people doubting after all this. And people think Flash hasn't touched sc2 yet? On the IM stream with Hwanni translating, Nestea said Flash was playing throughout the off-season and that he is brilliant. All the bw teams are practicing sc2 now, it's just a question of how much. There are screenshots of real-ids, computers getting upgraded to run sc2 in team houses and switching to widescreen lcds, articles on fomos... they are coming."

Most of these things have been well known for a while now. There is no reason for you to doubt at this point.
