I find this awesome that KeSPA is able to keep on par with Code S players, i have a feeling were going to see a much higher tier of competition soon :D

This - let me suffer in pain, you don't understand what it's like to be me - is .... True, I'm not an RTS player with a BW history, but I feel no shame in admitting that I enjoy reading the articles about the BW players, teams and surrounding organisations. I've also enjoyed watching series like "Nal_rA's Oldboy" and "Hyungjoon Becomes A Progamer". I've shown nothing but respect to the BW scene, I don't understand how this can be called arrogant... I think that is just plain stupid. SC2 isn't just a "replacement" for BW, other games like WC3 also "died" and as a fan I mourned, but then I also rejoiced as I saw the scene grow, Koreans actively competing with the rest of the world, 10 of thousands of fans tuning into streams. This is the biggest global RTS scene there has ever been and I'm proud to be part of it. | ||

No disrespect but if you don't want people to tell you anything about how you feel, what you think etc .... why are you posting? Do you want us to notice you're sad/angry/whatever it is you are? Why should we care? You either stimulate some discussion or don't post. Posting just to say "hey, I feel that" is kind of ... pointless ... Or if there's a place for people to share their sadness to see the BW scene dying than that is the place to post ... but why here? You're basically asking people not to relate your post to SC2 when you are actually speaking on an SC2 dedicated forum ... | ||

Still, this showmatch is one BW pros (and though I know quite little about BW aside from the big names, sHy isn't the best one...) against a quite good SC2 pro, but terrible in this match-up. There's not much to get out of this, just that the skill gap may not be as wide as we may think, but still exists... And this was a showmatch. It wasn't like a tournament where you get to know your opponent at least one week prior to the match... Also, Elephant in the room was assuming that they'd be practicing SC2 fulltime. All the brood war pros are trying to balance BW with SC2 for the new PL... | ||

And who played against who? o.o I prefer to think of it that SC2 and esports won ;p on another note, I wish twitch would offer vods in more qualities... my crappy connection doesn't do well with their 480p vods.
