Sooner or later there will not be any new people putting time into playing BW and the scene will die out... and with the SC2 scene constantly growing it would just be amazing if all the legendary BW players would change to SC2.
Unless they do away with the "easy mode" mentality and introduce some units that are interesting and actually take some skill to control..not forgetting to mention they should do away with some units.. colossus, roach, corrupter... sentries (hallucinate should go back to HT), no way SC2 will have the longevity BW does.

Yes. Soon we will enjoy Starcraft II in glorious 240/360p with only Korean casting, like in Brood War. How could GOMTV possibly compete?

Mike Morhaime "SC2 Proletariat..."
but was disappointed. The hard-working people of the colonies finally rise up against the warlords constantly attempting to control the sector. The big question - will the SCVs breach the picket line?

The potential for foreign viewers is just that much better with sc2 for OGN, I'm pretty sure they'll be doing something with it. And most likely stream it, too. Because why the hell not.

GOM wont be thrown under the bus, it'd be like 2 big leagues

I'm glad we will have a better format, and a more interesting team-league with better players for SC2. Honestly I have struggled to follow this season of the GSTL. I hope this doesn't mean BW is just left under a rock now, with LoL becoming huge and KeSPA to include SC2, it looks daunting for the scene.

Interesting to see how GomTV deals with this, obviously it'll require a lot of support from us to ensure survival.

And you happen to know that Kespa's rights would turn out to be exclusive?

Yeah... I feel the skill cap between "pros" and "noobs" is too close, there is really really nothing to micro in sc2 compared to broodwar. I have a good feeling for heart of the swarm though, it seem they are introducing micro units in it

who says MVP/NesTea and MMA will play for the ProLeague?

Lol at the picture!
Morhaime is trolling there all the way.
It would be funny if it was the first appearance of the announcement. He would be the troll of the year.

I hope KeSPA continues to enforce progamer licensing. Need to keep the randoms out of the big leagues >:[

Who says they won't? I believe kespa won't stop them from entering. They should know sc2 is getting huge outside korea, and why avoid making money if it means people will watch them?

As a sc2 fan I'm beyond thrilled
I feel for the BW fans though, hopefully the leagues can coexist.
Mixed feelings I guess
