Seems like it could be unfair for current SC2 teams to play in the OGN proleague; the current teams will naturally be better, having practiced the game far longer.

I hope it's set up initially where you'll have an OGN season run, then a GOM season, back and forth and then have some type of mixed finals between the two leagues for the end of the year. Perhaps the top 8 from OGN, top 8 from GOM.

If the SC2 teams are joining the league, there's no way it'll be half BW, half SC2.

They've been talking about half BW half SC2 forever. It's their primary idea. It always has been.

I, for one, welcome our new OGN overlords. In all seriousness though, this is potentially the beginning of some huge and exciting changes. I hope that Blizzard and GOM will defend the openness of Starcraft 2 competition that so many have fought for...

That's what I mean. So the teams have to act in coordination with Kespa, or at least in order with one another.

They've been talking about half BW half SC2 forever. It's their primary idea. It always has been.

I know. But everytime they talked about it they never talked about the SC2 teams joining.

If the SC2 teams are indeed joining the new PL, then there's no way they'll play half BW, half SC2, because guess what? They have no BW players. What I'm saying is while the BW players have been practicing SC2 in anticipation for the switch, none of the SC2 teams have been practicing BW.

EDIT: Having said that, if the SC2 teams are NOT joining PL next season, then there's no issue I guess.

The only logical way forward. If GOM and Kespa did their seperate things it would only set Korea back a few years of eSports progress.

Could Kespa even do anything without GOM's permission? Don't they have some sort of exclusivity contract?
