Nah. The worst is yet to come. The KeSPA players will push the eSF players to train even harder.

I think he meant the toughest to date and that is no question... will be crazy when both groups are at their peak.. there will be more DRG's in Code S and less Virus'

Ahahaha excellent. GOM pushes back their qualifiers to accommodate too, flexible and willing to change it's own schedules for the good of the scene like always.

Great! We all get to enjoy the OSL and GSL together. Glad that's over! :D

So ESF, not GOM which you are blaming, is not allowed to have their players not compete in OSL but KESPA can have their players not compete in GSL, how is that not the definition of hypocritical?[/QUOTE]

I said KESPA can have their players not complete, yes the first time I misstated, but i rephrased it as you can see above and you restated that I said took their players out which as you can see in the post I did not.

YAY! Can't say if I'm happier about Kespa in GSL or OSL having ESF players, but I'm certainly glad that this worked out (the correct way (IMO)).

Knowing this is resolved, I'm now super excited for the next season of Korean sc2... and to and a random point...

Creator HWAITNG! =D

I guess not. But with 100 players in qualifiers, code A should be filled with lots of KeSPA players.

esf would have hurt ogn(maybe cancel event, FIRST SC2 OSL!!) more than kespa hurting gomtv(disappointing hyped fans). osl was already set. gsl4 didnt even start.

Who said that they will send many players into qualifiers?
All you may get 3 weakest that are willing to look for a new team.
I'd be very surprised if any stars showed up.

I don't know. There's a LOT of people in these qualifiers. less than 5 players would be disappointing though for sure.

They said 90 players were allowed and there's little reason for them not to show up so I expect close to 100% attendance.

They're pro players and GSL is the second biggest tournament in Korea so I can't see them staying home.

I wouldn't celebrate yet. KeSPA likely has something up their sleeves very soon.

90 players. WOW! Kespa is making sure it has a statistical advantage of having Kespa players succeed!

on a side note, gsl 4 qualifiers have been pushed back to 9/12.
i think there will be chances that cj and khan may not join gsl4 along with whichever team that gets through the playoff since they've already been seeded for semi and finals for proleague. proleague ends 9/22.
