according to the ELEPHANT mentality the kespa players should be good enough to make all "original" sc2 players look like a circus act by next season right? Or has that whole group of the community that believed the ELEPHANT talk eaten their words already?

That's just ugly.

I don't think anyone actually thought the BW players would go straight from BW to dominating SC2. Mostly they were jokes, or people saying that they had what it took for them to become big. And we have yet to see.

I'd rather have them play BW for two-three more years. :<

Many posted that they did think that though

kind of sad really, they should restrict at leas the first season of it to broodwar players only. You'd want to at least give them a chance to switch fully after proleague ends before opening it up to everyone else. Feels like at this rate there would be maybe one or two kespa players tops who qualify if any.

very sad for all the BW fans, if I knew competetive SC2 would be finished in a month I would be crushed ;___; I feel like the hybrid league has been pretty uninspiring, I dont understand BW enough to enjoy those games and the SC2 was just bad. Doesn't seem like a proper send off. Even though I never followed BW I was always aware what a big deal it was and how much depth there was to the scene, and I have huge respect for the players and how they built and inspired the scene that I love. I hope some BW cynics will give SC2 a chance to develop - in a year or two you might be happy you stuck with it and hopefully a lot of the good things about the scene will be preserved. GG BW.

I understand people worrying that that the BW pros will not stand a chance in the new OSL but people are right to say it needs to be the highest quality to compete. I don't want to watch a league just for the names - the novelty wears off after a few games and you're just left with substandard play. The best players will no doubt catch up within a few months, so what does it matter if they can't really compete this time round?

On the upside it's great news for SC2 fans that we will be getting another Korean league. The foreign market may be a bit oversaturated but in Korea GSL just can't provide enough content on its own, especially towards the later stages. I imagine we will see more Koreans staying at home rather than going to foreign tournaments since they'll have a lot less free time. I hope the high OSL production values will carry over and that there will be some healthy competition with GSL

Great, great news for SC2, but for BW? Farewell, old friend

Anyways, it's still a better transition than what Proleague did. And since foreigners are able to participate, maybe it will be streamed on more reasonable hours than 3 am CEST. Let's see if SC2 will outrun LoL in viewer numbers now and Carmac will be proven wrong (he said that LoL will outlive SC2)
If you make no mistake, yet still lose - you don't understand the game. Spiral out, keep going.

Very cool, hope they can capture the OSL magic and bring it to SC2, though I do believe it will, at least for the first one here, be primarily GSL players that can compete. From what I've seen, the BW pros are still a way off from competing with the established SC2 player base.

Don't want to be the grammar nazi but: RIP= Rest in Peace. Another "in peace" behind RIP is not needed.

Great news for sc2 community, now we have to hope that also most of the "old" BW fans will switch over...

SC2 transition is expected, but allowing non-BW players to play on the first season is huge.

There is absolutely no way in hell that the BW players can catch up to the korean SC2 pros in such a short period of time. I was hoping for one SC2 season for BW players only, to give them more time. This way they'll get crushed and the fanbase will wander off in disappointment.

That's fucking retarded, but we all knew that stupid crap was coming anyway.

Maybe in 10 years SC2 will be half as good as BW was and watching a game of it won't be boring as fuck.

Also, of course:

Congratulations SC2 fans! Yet another SC2 tournament to follow. How many are there already? Dreamhack, MLG, IPL, IEM, fake SPL and fake OSL, that's at least 6 major tournaments. (edit: to clarify, this is not sarcasm)

I'm fucking mad about this stupid shit, but I sincerely hope that SC2 can become something much better than it is today. Hope that in 3 years I will look back and say that I was overreacting and that SC2 wasn't the shit I thought it was.

Unfortunately you won't look back and find it better than you thought it was, since you've already decided that you dislike the game :/

Goddamnit, I don't know how to feel about this, though I'm mostly sad.
