On topic: Sad to see sC go especially since he was part of one of my favorite games of all time (vs Nestea) but I feel like he hasn't been the same since lung surgery. Hopefully he'll make a bigger impact on the LOL scene. Good luck dood! | ||

Are they joining established teams to form b-teams? I don't know if those are questions better suited to be answered on the LoL subforum, but considering LoL is a game where you need 5 reliable people, I don't understand how individuals are "switching to LoL." If i'm not mistaken mvp has two LoL teams so maybe that's why and where he's headed | ||

THEN OUTTA NOWHERE EIGHT NEW BIG CHAIN RESTAURANTS LIKE KT CRAB SHACK AND SK PIZZA MOVE INTO TOWN. Guys, 100 or so players recently switched to SC2. The player field is now over saturated and those employers who could get by a while ago can't stand with so many new players coming over and taking their jobs. sC once had amazing potential and would have been a GSL champion if not for Nestea in possibly the greatest SC2 game of all-time, but he hadn't done much in over a year since his lung collapsed. He obviously has been playing LoL for a long time. | ||

edit: Its not just koreans, a lot of the western scene seems to be testing the water with Dota2/LoL. | ||

This one is not surprising to me, in contrast to the Puzzle switch. | ||

Everything was good, and while some of the other places didn't get as many people, everyone could stay employed and continue working.

Pro's and casters switching over to ensure their careers is a big sign for blizzard, yet they still seem silent. Time to do something..... sC has DONE NOTHING in the past year. The most notable accomplishment was getting into WCS Korea and then getting knocked out by Jaedong. What caster has switched to LoL? Tasteless? The guy that was probably asked at the last minute to fill in for GOM, and being the great English caster he is, decided to step in even if he doesn't know all the champions and spells? Why do people not understand that when 100+ new players come into your town, players are going to leave. This is a 1v1 sport. sC once had a lot of potential, but has been noted to being playing LoL for a long time. He was doing nothing in SC2 and decided to make the switch where the LoL Korean scene is very young and easy to enter. I loved sC back in the middle of 2011, but after the lungs collapsed and he went from fOu to FXO, he did nothing. | ||

SC2 in Korea seems to be built around the hope that it will become the next BW and thus the infrastructure was built like in BW. It does not look like it becomes as succesful, so the scene will consolidate to a smaller core. I also expect some KeSPA players to disappear. We will never hear from them though, unlike lower tier eSF players. On October 24 2012 18:32 Moonling wrote: Still remember SC vs Nestea, however SC has been out of the scene for a while. He has medical issues + dosen't have a LoL team, therefore I don't think he will be "serious". Are all these guys switching to LoL hoping to get lucky and get picked up by a team? I mean... this is not like Starcraft where you can just be good and win money you have to have a team, a team house, management to be successful and there are only so many to go around, even with their huge viewer base. Maybe someone in MVP is leaving and they need to fill a spot? MVP has 3 LoL teams IIRC. Anyways, I miss sC for sure. Game 5 was awesome. | ||
