Wonder how this'll go down with GOM and their GSL/GSTL.

But really, can you picture a Super Bowl-like final between the winners of the first SC2 Proleague (KT, CJ, SKT1, etc) and the winner of the next GSTL? (not this season, but the next). You could put it in Korea, America, Europe, wherever and people will come to see.

GOM/Kespa/Blizzard could make a lot of money in this if they play it right. Could you picture the hype if a team like Incredible Miracle with Nestea, MVP, etc. went up against SKT1 with Bisu, Fantasy, etc? People would throw money at their computer screens to see what would happen when the SC2 "veterans" took on the new BW-turned-SC2 players.


Tbh I'd rather see more competition between BW pros and SC2 players then just once a season. Why only do it once in a while when you could have competition between them all the time?


True, but the first time the BW-turned-SC2 players (if they switch) play the SC2 "veterans" could be a big match. Even a show match could gainer a lot, lot, loooooot of interest.


It will be so funny and one sided that I will drop the starcraft scene at the first moment my bw players lose to sc2 players .

I wonder how OGN will deal with the huge foreigner interest. English commentary ? I hope so.

BW players should play BW and SC2 players should play SC2.

people should continue doing what they are good at, especially if there is demand for their talents at what they do.

All the naysayers and BW apologists are so funny.


the korean fans will flock to wherever their favorite BW players end up. If they all move to LoL, korea will watch LoL. If they all retired at once, pro-gaming would wither and die. If they end up playing SC2, korea will watch SC2. its that simple - mike morhaime is shopping for "star power" for SC2, nothing more, nothing less, and by the sounds of it he got what he came for. Which can only mean good things for us all, except the diehards who believed broodwar would continue forever.

most of them won't, I understand how much star power these guys hold themselves but many of these fans are legitimate BW fans not people drawn by the star power.

What is this supposed to be? A fan made poster or something official or what?

Also it's got a GSL logo, so what does it have to do with proleague?

So awesome. Can't wait.

Hopefully with this confirmation BW teams will be practicing Sc2 full time (if they're not already) so they're already at the top level from day one.

Kind of bittersweet news, I just hope BW and SC2 can coexist for years to come and that they both can be profitable/popular.

That pic is a fake, it was on reddit, the GSL logo isn't even the real one, the guy who made the logo in the picture explained it.
