But that is what esf themselve wanted. A question, will GSL pick the invited players. or will KeSPA decide who gets the Code S seeds? | ||

Back in broodwar kespa did this exact thing to GOM, made their players boycott them and then GOM died. ESF realizes that kespa is in a win/win situation if they play in OSL while kespa players avoid GOM. This hurts gom alot as having kespa vs GOM players is going to bring a lot more viewers then if it were just GOM players or just Kespa players (at least in terms of international). So if Kespa allows GOM players to play in OSL but forbids their players from playing in GSL then GSL viewers get hurt and OSL gets a lot more attention then GOM then if both of them had it. In short Kespa is trying to be the main company over there like in BW. So yes ESF's reaction was smart and good. There is a reason people who followed bw for a long time (I am not one of these people) but you will notice how Idra (former kespa player) Jinro (followed bw forever) and more who followed bw for a long time SUPPORTED ESF's decision and the korean reaction on their forums were hate on Kespa and not GOM. And Jinro posts above again saying the truth ^_^ You can't really compare it to GOM Classic because GOM have players this time.. Their very own. | ||
