GSL is definetely the one tournament people remember the winners of, they are the most prestigious event in sc2. Because I follow the scene so closely I can tell you ( for the most part ) who won various IEM's, DH's and MLG's in 2010 and 2011 but not very many people can.
I mean, Naniwa won an MLG but does anyone ever really think about that anymore? I don't see it brought up.
I don't even see Leenock's MLG Providence win brought up often and that was the biggest MLG event ever. The Problem that I see with Code S is, that it happens to often. SC2 needs an event that when you win it makes you THE. FUCKING. MAN. And that's not really the case with Code S atm, because the next season is already on the way. @TommyP: We appear to be arguing for completely different points, so let's just leave it at that. I don't see how OSL is going to give you that either, the next OSL is about to start and the previous one just finished. They have been playing the Dual Tournament groups since about a month ago, before the BW osl was even done with the semifinals. That has only happened for this season. A normal season of OSL lasts for around 3 months with a couple weeks off before the ro32 starts up again. That is basically the same as GSL except OSL lasts a few weeks longer overall, GSL seasons have been about 9-10 weeks per season then a 2 week break for this year. This season of Code S took ~70 days to finish while a normal OSL season takes about ~100-110. Certainly not "basically the same." In fact, there has only been three seasons of OSL since Flash's last win in the fall of 2010.
partly due to sponsor problems i would imagine?

I really really hope it will work for them and than Korean fans will keep following their favorite player.
OSL transition was way better than SPL transition so I think it can work.
SPL transition wasn't "bad" but it was a little awkward...

This season, Auction. Next season, Amazon. It's gonna be huge.

first time hearing about them but glad for new sponsors

The brand has nothing to do with how big it is lmao.
You know the other sponsors of the leagues year back right?
|
Happy that sponsors are eager for SC2!
|
Oh damn, at first I read this as sponsor to auction off SC2 OSL players. Just for a second, then i realize that what i thought made no sense...
|
Yay more Korean investment!! :-D
|
Seeing how fast they got a new sponsor is really good news!!
And the OSL lives on

I'm so confused...why are we complaining about getting a sponsor? Or are we complaining? Ugh these comments don't make sense to me...
Let's all just be happy that OGN got a sponsor that will let them continue to produce high quality Starcraft tournaments. If we can support the sponsor, great! If we can't, that sucks. But anything that helps esports grow is good in my book.
|
Perhaps you should actually read the comments then. I think mine was pretty clear with regards to what they said in the press release.
|
It's good to see more people stepping up to sponsor Starcraft 2 Tournaments.
|
Oh man, thought there was going to be an "auction" to sponsor. Good news!
|
As someone who never played BW, this is great =P
