I wish OGN/KeSPA took a page out of GOM's book and had someone official who speaks decent English come to TL.net and post some more information for the potential foreign audience they allegedly so crave. The date is on OGN's TV Schedule. | ||

also, if it is EG, I hope Boxer will greet Idra in the studio with a 'hi grack'. Also, if true Idra will finally get to play in the proleague after years of toiling with entus's b team | ||

Also, if true Idra will finally get to play in the proleague after years of toiling with entus's b team AL NL version idea is kind of cool actually have GSTL and Proleague finish around the same time then pit the KESPA winner against the ESF winner for the real championship team series I could get hyped for that | ||

- According to reports, it's confirmed that there will be a foreign team, to be official revealed at the conference - SK Planet will be sponsoring one more year - SPL to have English broadcasts - New season to revert to a 1 year schedule, with 6 rounds, 4 matchdays and 8 matches a week - 2nd round and 5th round to be SWL played with a KOF format - Regular season to be Bo7, with an Ace - Format reverted to that of a pre-announced team style, instead of revealing the team on the spot | ||

Some new updates, but not able to translate the full thing since it's originally from fomos (Edit: Not that I translate straight from fomos anyway I guess haha. I go by what the Chinese translation says.). There'll be a press conference on 4 December about the new season of Proleague. - According to reports, it's confirmed that there will be a foreign team, to be official revealed at the conference - SK Planet will be sponsoring one more year - SPL to have English broadcasts - New season to revert to a 1 year schedule, with 6 rounds, 4 matchdays and 8 matches a week - 2nd round and 5th round to be SWL played with a KOF format - Regular season to be Bo7, with an Ace - Format reverted to that of a pre-announced team style, instead of revealing the team on the spot Like this very much, pretty much every thing I wanted about the format. | ||

The "S" might mean Shinhan Bank or something, which was the old sponsor for Proleague for a few years, back when they had the all-kill portion each year. The Brood War Liquipedia has an article about this. I assume that the "Shinhan Bank Winner's League" got shortened to "SWL," which I guess has become synonymous with the all-kill format. | ||
