Not because of all those BW elitists, no not at all. Rather because it would really kind of certify the hard work all of the real sc2 progamers like DRG, Nestea, MKP and all the others have put in during the last two years and it would show, that you cannot play the game a few weeks and suddenly be the king of the world. Even the gods will have to work very hard. | ||

I feel like SC2 diehards kind of hope the BW pros fail because they feel it will validate their game. If they succeed, it doesn't necessarily mean BW is a superior/harder game, and vice-versa if they don't do well immediately. I don't think anyone is saying Flash will dominate in a few weeks. I expect in a few months we will start seeing some decent results, and within a year they will be near the top if they put in the same work ethic. Flash won't immediately claim bonjwa status, but I expect it will happen eventually. | ||

Also the HotS stream won't be free either i suppose. So yeah for the first time i will see myself thinking about buying this stuff. HOTS stream and KESPA players playing in their mini tournament will be free. | ||

Flash won't immediately claim bonjwa status, but I expect it will happen eventually. I don't think hoping that they fail is what most sc2 fans wish for. Eventually Flash and the others should come out on top. He said in an interview it will probably take 2+ years, but that surely was an exaggeration to keep things cool. Sc2 doesn't have to be validated. The fact that it's so popular all around the world except for Korea speaks for itself. However, although many sc2 pros were only 2nd grade broodwar players, I feel it would be kind of sad if 2 years of work was completely in vain and Flash, JD and the others were able to crush them immediately. I think it's in the Gods nature to eventually come out on top :D | ||

No deal like this means no players outsode of kespa ever. Happened in BW would of happened agaon without this. People need to look at the big picture and also not forget the past so easily. | ||

When current pros play below their normal standards LR threads always fill with "omfg this platinum league play horrible to watch". Pretty safe to say coming games are way below anything sc2 fans are used to. Personally, I'm going to "go easy" on them. That is, since I know they still must practice BW and SC2, I'm not expecting amazing games. Especially when one considers that although they may have been causally playing for a while, they are barely going to begin structured practice. Expecting amazing, high level games and being upset when they don't deliver doesn't make sense. | ||

I wonder if that really was the case when making this "deal" World: Somebody set up us the bomb :-( World: We get signal!! World: Main screen turn on!! Kespa: How are you gentlemen? *silence* Mlg. *raisehands* What you say? Kespa: All your base are belong to us!!!! *looksinthecrowd" | ||
