I think this is a great move and am happy they did this, if they participate in the OSL without them participating in this GSL as Scoots and Hotbid mentioned there's nothing to stop them being 'busy' during the next gsl once they have had OSL. Happy about this and interested to see where this goes.

Holy shit ultimatums batman!

What'll Kespa do now I wonder?

I love the esports drama, it's the perfect spice to add to an epic scene. Admit it, drama adds excitement to a scene and this is the best stuff yet. Will OSL fail now? Will Kespa change their mind? It's all to play for folks. The SCV's are pulled and the feds are going all in. Willl Kespa hold?

I would bet every cent I have, that if they had played, the second OSL was over kespa would have pulled the same thing again for GSL 5. and ESF wouldn't be able to do anything about it, good move for calling them out of their obvious BS

Good move by ESF. Very nice to see that they're not gonna give Kespa any 2nd chances! Take that Kespa!

Even though this move was the only logical followup to their initial statement... I'm impressed. First they stepped up, now they denied taking an easy way out.

Move by KeSPA basically boiled down to getting ESF to get out of this fight - but with saving their face, by pretending they've accomplished something (there was no more definitive guarantee they'd join season 5 than there was previously about season 4).

I fear the OSL will just be filled by other KeSPA players.
