I hope they do something interesting with game also. I grew bored of sentrys, colosai and roaches. Now I'm 100% sure that it's not as deep as BW was and I just played campaign and watched some replays.
On top of that we don't even know how what's up with HotS.

I don't see what the complaining is for about this.

This new tournament isn't going to immediately kill the GSL, and how are we supposed to know this pro-league won't be pure awesomeness?

I can't see how this can be a bad thing. I'm still going to watch the GSL but I'll check out the pro-league as well.

I think more and more this will be good for sc2 in Korea. Having a pro-league might help make sc2 more popular in korea and fight off some of the LoL worries other people are starting to have.

Really hoping this inspires some competitive spirit by GOM and the two start improving even more every tournament.

I think Riot winning KeSPA and OGN's favor is what triggered Mike Morhaime to run to Korea.

LoL is killing WoW and now starting to steal SC2's esport spotlight. Blizzard needs to take measures to compete against LoL or two of their three core franchises are in trouble and Mike Morhaime is going to lose his job as Blizzard's sales keep falling short of expectations. Hopefully they drop their ridiculous licensing fees and revenue sharing requirements for hosting SC2 tournaments and put more money into promoting the SC2 esport scene like how Riot is pumping millions into promoting LoL esports.

The problem with Blizzard is short sightedness. Instead of supporting the growth of SC2 esports as a low cost way to continually market the game and their brands and maintain continued brand interest and long tail sales, Blizzard instead tried to grab up front cash and stifled the growth of SC2 esports.

I hope it's not like BW where kespa controls all their players. Would love to see current SC2 players be able to play in kespas leagues and vise verse and allow players to interact and switch teams between current SC2 and kespa run teams.

Their exclusive deal in Korea is about to run out anyways.
Awesome news, because one company having a monopoly on SC2 in Korea isn't a good thing for viewers.


Agreed, and well said. Overall i thnink this is gonna be cool as we might see more of the SC1 platyers convert over to SC2 and bring better matches with them!!

Isn't KeSPA kinda like NFL, NHL etc where teams and players are bound to the league? If anything, isn't that a good thing? Rules, map pool and such are the same for everyone, teams can't fuck people over when it comes to salaries and it is just more fun to follow. I would rather watch Proleague/KeSPA teams and tournaments than watching "global sc2" like how it is now tbh. This is what makes Proleague so much fun to follow in BW.

It just seems more serious and professional.

OGN's involvement will mean SC2 on korean tv at a larger scale than it is right now. KeSPA'S involvement will bring more seriousness and acceptance from the masses... at least i hope it will. Anyways more tournaments and more players are always a great development to look forward to.

gom's rights for sc2 expires soon, kespa gets them, no more gom


the rights to sc2 simply won't be monopolized by GOM, both organizations will have the rights... you're quite simple minded.

Aren't WoW and LoL completely different kind of game? -_-"
