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

+1

That was my first thought when I read it, I mean they had no problem with MSL and it doesn't seem WCS stressed them all that much but as soon as a GOM league comes along :/ too busy, secret big project :/ Pfft

No matter what happens, this is the right decision.

What are people so surprised about? ESF clearly said in their previous press release that they will stay away from OSL, as long as Kespa blocks GSL for its players. And currently Kespa is still doing that (seeing that they do not allow participation in season 4). They are just staying consistent, in my opinion.

I don't think it's surprised, just happy that instead of rolling with it they're standing their ground.

I wonder if the mods are going to merge the threads. I don't really think we need 4 threads for one issue haha. So messy

I imagine there's going to be an emergency meeting between KeSPA, ESF, GOM & Blizzard come Monday. Hopefully KeSPA allows some of it's own players/coaches to sit in and express their opinions too.

So KeSPA needs to pen the agreement that they are going to join GSL5 and future events
GSL 4 will not feature them, thats for sure

Not bad. Let's just hope KeSPA allows their players to participate in GSL4, or I don't think SC2 will ever have a major breakout in Korea.

I hope so too ):
I'm new to posting on TL and I have no idea how to go about asking for a merge or ask the other thread to just take this one and put it on the op as an update...

Woot, excellent. Proud of you, Nestea & Co. Hopefully this whole showing of teeth ends up with some beloved Kespa players taking part in the upcoming GSL very very soon. To quote Tosh: "It don't hurt... much."

Kespa should let every team decide to participate or not in GSL S4 and not make the decision as a whole.



They should let every player decide whether they want to or not.

I hope that's what will come out of this mess. E-sports organization (ESF and Kespa) shouldn't be allowed to decide which player plays in which league. Otherwise, we'll end up with one organization having a monopoly on SC2 in Korea, which is never a really good idea.

Haha don't worry about it The mods will do it if they want to. Besides, people probably won't see the news if it's merged immediately
