Last Code S group with July and MKP had such a tiny crowd. I think Blizz knows it needs to do something especially with the rise of LoL and the incoming DOTA 2.
SC2 was doomed from the start.

I really hope that if there is an SC2 pro-league, that they don't use the current or season 7 map-pool, and make their own maps. There used to be some classics back in the day which would be awesome to be converted to an SC2 version

Who would want to see that? I like BW and I really don't want to see BW pros come over and suck all day long at SC2. You wouldn't expect LoL pros to swap over to DotA2 when it releases, and you shouldn't want BW pros to come to SC2. BW leagues are great anyways, and they seem to be making money as far as I know. I watch nanashin's streams and the seats seem full.

Most if not all BW pros are going to be slow and horrible and lose to Mid-High KR Masters for the first 3+ months. SC2's fights are a whole lot faster than BW and over half the BW pros are probably going to suck for good. Things like the late "hey broseidon your crap is melting" and not having to babysit your base are things that take a long time to get used to, and sometimes aren't humanly possible to get used to in a timely manner after playing BW for so long. SC2 is also much harder to come back in because the skill floor is much higher due to good a-walk AI.

I'd lose my shit if I had to watch Flash, Reach, Stats, and Mind get all-killed by Choya. No one wants to see crap like that.


LoL if you think bw is baby sitting your base only than you are pretty wrong my friend. Take a good look at forgg bw fpvods and compare to his sc2 fpvods he still does the same spamming at his production facility like he does in bw . In my opinion any A class bw player can transfer his multi tasking skill to sc2 easily . Just look at violet bed ridden with cancer and yet owning people on sc2 and even has a grand master account .

You underestimate how much multi tasking it takes to play bw at a high level.

Forget the BW vs SC2 conversation, how about Kespa vs GomTV? If we want to have Starcraft grow it must be able to continue to develop and draw in new viewers.

I was not an esports fan during BW's height but I've heard Kespa is the stereotypical "evil corporation" that cares more about crushing opposition than it does about growing its own organization. GomTV is clearly not that [loaning out casters, allowing teams/players to participate in tourneys across the world, directly seeding in foreigners, providing a free stream, etc] - are we as fans ok with Blizzard talking directly with Kespa? A weathered BW fan's perspective would be much appreciated.

Plz dont talk about stuff u only hear about.. .cause reading this makes me sad. cause there are so many people like u who hav eno clue about Kespa but talk so much shit about them ~~

just reading through the threads you can see that there is a great deal of passion for BW and SC2, I really hope there is enough room for both!
Never argue with an idiot, they will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
