I know we're all sad, but let's be honest, none of us right now is hurting more than Bisu.

Will this all be streamed, possibly with English casters? Would love to see some OSL action even if it isn't Brood War matches

Sucks. Goodbye Professional Brood War, I hardly knew ye!

I knew this was coming, but I still don't know what to say. I loved Brood War since the beginning, but sadly only learned of professional play very late. All the sorrow and joy I never got to experience is a loss I keenly feel, but these few years I did get to watch were a treat. I may not have seen Boxer become a legend, but I did see him nuke Killer back when Oz was using him in Ace matches. I watched Fantasy's rise to fame, his glories and embarrassments. I witnessed the short-lived Six Dragons Season and then, after I'd given up all hope of ever seeing a Protoss champion again, Jangbi overcome all expectations in a glorious finale. I rooted for underdogs like Tempest, Saint, Lomo and BackHo, and I cheered for masters of the craft like Bisu, Stork, Fantasy, Leta and Zero.

This feeling is like the one you get at the end of a good book. Sorrow that the enjoyment has come to an end, but also satisfaction at a work well crafted.

I will move on, but I will never forget.
I bear this sig to commemorate the loss of the team icon that commemorated Oversky's 2008-2009 Proleague Round 1 performance.

This means Flash is still on track for diamond and platinum mice.

I am still incredibly unhappy about the switch. OSL was the only league left.

Ppl that care about/play a 12 year old game.... care about production value? and money?

Depends whether they care about the game itself, or about being ESPORTS.

Good bye Broodwar, it is so sad to say good bye to a game u've know ur whole life (maybe even first game i saw and played), i really regret not knowing about Professional Broodwar for so long. I will now watch all remaining osl matches at least. Today is a sad day.

I don't think you can deny BW's production value if it lasted 12 years and created, basically, an entirely new genre of business.
when Bisu switches to SC2...... (2014 update: sighh)

Well shit.

I suppose it's better to end now than try to do another one when everyone's playing SC2, but ugh. It's huge news for the Korean SC2 scene, but I kind of don't care about that right now.

BW is officially dead as a professional e-Sport.

What attracted people the most was the game itself. Flashing lights and smoke and mirrors do not make a good show.

One of my favorite things I'll miss about professional brood war were the hype videos, which are almost void in sc2.

I mean damnit why can't we have this in sc2 t.t

Not explicitly in this announcement, Kespa did partner with MLG though so expect them at MLG at least.

I wanted to read all through this thread but I had to stop. It is sad to see BW die to the sound of applause by Sc2 fans. My initial reaction was to write a giant wall of text flaming Sc2 but I deleted it. I feel like my best friend just moved. Sure he's not dead but I'll never see him again and it will never be the same. I am fucking speechless I don't know what to write. This is the end so I guess I'm done here. I will be drowning my sorrows on ladder tonight.
