Perhaps eSF or similar will turn into a legitimate players association in the future. One can hope atleast. | ||

I can't believe the little guy complex you people all have. It's honestly making me uncomfortable to even post here. Not everything in the world is about money. Maybe they don't want to completely turn their backs on the company/league that started SC2 esports and helped them to establish themselves and teams.... | ||

With the negative reaction from Koreans themselves (and even on KeSPA"s website), it would be PR suicide (which does affect viewers and may affect sponsors as well) to pull players out from Season 5. | ||

All joking aside I hope this doesn't hurt the Korean SC2 scene and that Gom still remains as the Korean SC2 premier tournament I have always respected how they went about things and now that I have a better paying job I might buy season passes even if I can't watch most of the game just to support GOM. ~YourGoodFriend ESF & GOM Fighting!!!!!!!! | ||

Running it through google translate it seems to say that KeSPA will allow the players to participate in GSL qualifiers? SUCCESS?? | ||

Sources like what? Last time I checked most sc2 players weren't even salaried and teams were folding because no money. Jesus Christ, it's like I'm watching a race riot. | ||

It's quite selfish to ask eSF players to attend the OSL, based on the promise that you'll let your players paricipate in the qualifiers for the GSL ... in 2-3 ( ? 5 ? ) months time. In 2 months, a freaking meteorite could hit the Earth, or maybe worst - the next Command and Conquerer could wipe-out StarCraft and all its history :D | ||
