Well, shit People are acting like every single top Korean goes to every foreign tournament, and now this deal is in place everything will change. Well, sorry, but most events only get a handful of current top koreans. The way it stands... you won't lose anything... Nothing changes for any tournament. MLG get's flash etc but is Kespa the whole scene? No. Are Kespa players going to be amazing right now? No. I'd say the majority of real SC2 fans watch MLG anyway. If not there are other tournaments to watch and they will be successful. If exclusivity happened with the GSL players i'd be more worried. In fact we have reason to be worried when there are just multiple exclusive deals all over the place. Right now? No. Oh and on top of that, if people who love foreign tournaments such as DH, IEM, ETC MUST watch Kespa players but dislike MLG... Then you can watch Flash etc on Proleague or OGN SC2 league. Solution for you. | ||

The production for Dreamhack and IEM are fine (especially Dreamhack) but the player pools have always been bad because unlike MLG and IPL they don't actively chase the best players in the world and thus they are always worse tournaments from a pure comeptitive stand point than MLG and IPL. | ||

There's only so many hours in a week and BW players have Pro League, MLG, OSL and in future GSL's as well as hours upon hours of practice. They can't be travelling every week to other tournaments. | ||

Flash was never ever going to miss pro league/practice to make $6k dollars from an IEM (assuming he wins) with a $1500 travel costs. | ||

They will have extremely tight schedule's so the fact we're seeing them at all is almost a bonus (as is the fact they're switching in the first place) and if they have to attend one tournament most people would agree that MLG is the biggest and best foreign tournament. It's also a tournament rammed full of GSL players so we will get to see them play vs GOM players after Anaheim. | ||

I see no reason why the other ~100 progamers not named Flash that probably won't all be attending MLG's shouldn't be able to attend an IEM given they have time between matches. If it's exclusive (which is unsure since the Korean translation apparently leaves that part out) this binds all KeSPA players, not just the big names. | ||
