So people here think that just because BW players are playing a 12 year old game, they can just dominate sc2?
That's like saying people who are unreal at NHL 94 would kill someone who plays NHL 12. makes no sense. There are gonna be the few, Fantasy/flash who will transfer well because they're natural gamers, but i don't see anyone beating MVP/Stephano from the current BW proleague. SC2 is a different game.

-Won gold for the last BW WCG -Won the last gold badge for the last MSL -Won the last GomTV Intel-TG Sambo Classics
And by winning the last OSL, he not only accomplishes the first ever 4th OSL win but probably be the best ever player to have played this game and end the era that is known as BW. This is the best case scenario for how the BW OSL can end.
Judging from what happened in the last OSL which words cannot describe the epicness from the prelims all the way to the finals, hope this one will be as good.
Jangbi winning would also make for a good ending scenario, but yeah Flash would also be great. Anyone else apart from these two would be great for the players, but not as epic as it could have been

Respectful nod to BroodWar? They played Wings of Liberty...
Very classy? I'm sure that tournament had something to do with breaking viewership records so I'm confused as to what was particularly classy about it.
I love MLG don't get me wrong I just don't understand what you mean.
I'm really hoping OSL and GSL will be able to run side by side and players will be able to participate in both.
Do you guys think this is a pipe dream though? Too hard to schedule two live tournaments in tandem. I mean they're competitors at the end of the day, they can't just avoid prime scheduling times because the other runs at that time.

Can you post link to see what you are talking about, im interested?
I found an interview from the event with Leta, SoulKey, Jaedong, Fantasy, and Stork in which they talk about how exited they are, but their unhappy faces showing the opposite link KeSPA's Brood War Pro Players at MLG Spring Championships
