So, is the Kespa-scene totally collapsing now? Time for some merger with ESF, or what now?

I believe in the almighty Grötslev! -- I am never serious and you should never believe a thing I say. Including the previous sentence.

So this there is going to be a team 7? Or the proleague is going to change/disband? Anyway, this is a very bad news for KeSPA. They should anticipate this with their outdated business model.

this is so sad, but it's logic, there are too many koreans teams in sc2 right now, some will disappear in the next months I guess, from both Kespa and ESF

What I meant was while eSF is showing teeth at the moment, KESPA gets hit by another big blow. While it has nothing to do with eSF, noone will deny that this will strengthen their position.

If the "opposition" gets weaker, you automatically become stronger.

It's sad but how it is logic?
The parent company is having problems, has nothing to do with too many Korean teams.

Um, the news said it was one of Woongjin Group's affiliate, Kukdong Engineering and Construction that goes bankruptcy, does that do a hell lot with Woongjin Group itself?

Each sponsor controls their team. Kespa is made up of representatives from the teams/sponsors. It's essentially the exact opposite of what you're saying.

Is it wrong that I'm actually happy to see KESPA teams go bankrupt? I mean I'm sad for the players and hope they will find new homes if they want to keep going in SC2, but after all the bad things that have come out of kespa, I just can't help but smile hearing about one of the KESPA companies go bankrupt.

Why not just merge all EGMC, GSTL, KeSPA, and IPTL teams together and make one big ProLeague?

And by all I mean ALL, as in even foreign teams.

Well, considering that one kespa team alone is most probably worth more than all eSF teams together, it is not really giving esf any advantages.
