And I think Sayle absolutely, absolutely does deserve some money for everything he's done even though he might not be the best/highest analysis caster in the business (even though I really enjoyed him). Have him co-cast with Axslav and I'm raaaale happy We absolutely there to be an official English broadcast. Or rather, TL and EG need it. If its Sayle, it can't be him restreaming in 240p and basically shooting the shit...that doesn't give TL and EG the proper exposure they deserve by entering Proleague. The pro SC2 scene needs to do better than amateurs casting from home lol. | ||

As a side note, having not watched professional SC2 in nine months, I was considering tuning in to KT vs TL-EG. Not anymore. There were some of them during the endless ESF vs Kespa debate, while Kespa was short to moving onto sc2. Some of them had quite valid points for all the shit that happened in the lawless sc2 scene, but also some arguments like "Kespa is only interested in promoting eSports, hence all their events have free HQ and free vods" were proven false quite fast. Anyways, we'll see what will happen (in the next day). | ||

They are not stepping in as the saviours now, they were in contact with KeSPA back then and may have caused OGN to get kicked out. source: Don't act like you are "diggin into it now", MLG. | ||

BW with korean commentary is a bliss (yes, present tense!!), and I do not expect it to add less entertainment than a SC2 caster would. People need to give it a chance before screaming "NOOO!", it is unexpectedly good since it gives such a nice mood. | ||

This is news to us as well. We wanted to cast Pro League as a rebroadcast in EST prime time hours, we didn't know there would be no English cast. Again, we're working on it now. | ||

We wanted to have nightly content during US prime time hours that leveraged Pro League matches. This is not apples to apples. | ||

If you were going to do this would you have shots of the players/venue/everything else or would you just be given the replays to cast? The latter would be pretty boring imo. | ||

This is not apples to apples. I did read, "streamed" doesnt sound like rebroadcast to me. And it seems weird to have it casted in English by 2 different organisations. But well, I can only take your words for now. | ||
