Well this is terrifically depressing to hear. And I feel very sad for all the OGN people and u doa. Why does kespa so bloodymindedly seek to shoot itself in its foot?

I feel really conflicted about the kespa proleague now. Of course I sort of have to watch, it's too exciting to see a foreigner team there not to watch. But now I have to feel guilty about it. So to speak.

I really hope they sort something. I'm sorry doa. Thanks for keeping us updated. glgl

This way, we may soon get rid of all the notorious KeSPA defenders on TL. They are very, very quickly losing the last bids of ammo they may have still had. It's not 2002 and SC2 is not the only esport in the world. Not many people are gonna fight their way to watch anything that is not served to them on a silver plate. If there is not a consistent, accessible and high quality English broadcast, this league will be absolutely irrelevant outside Korea.

The sad part, that the only people it really hurts are EG-TL.

Doa. In all the things that are happening here - I feel sorry for you because of the effort this should not have happened. Kespa where epic turns into WTF.

You could have watched the Korean cast anyway but now the experience is lessened for everyone who does NOT want the Korean cast. Even if all you want is the Korean cast, this should be something you have a problem with.

I can't see any reason for them to NOT have an English broadcast if they're going to invite arguably the two biggest Western teams in the game to take part... but then they do have the MLG partnership that gave us the MvP Invitational, so presumably there will be something going on there. If not, they've made a major mis-step.

I really hope MLG will be doing english casts, or the proleague will mean very little here in the west. All the epicness of TL-EG and finally having a footing in Proleague is really null and void if the western audience can't watch it in a language they understand.

To me KeSPA feels like that sad bully in school, he keeps bullying people, but once those people cant be bullied anymore, they move onto another person...

This is sad :/

It is bad for guys who do not follow BW and never watch korean commentators. The beauty of Proleague are Korean Commentators. I like watching only korean comments in SPL.

You are right. And it is so sad. On the other hand: Now I don't have to ask myself if i want to buy a ticket for GOM next year because the hyped alternative just commited suicide, Kespa-style.

KeSPA might be trying to screw over OGN and give the english streaming rights to MLG. Seems a bit odd. See this tweet from two days ago:

Apparently MLG might be involved in some way with an English broadcast per MLG Lee's Twitter? If that's the case then I wish them the best of luck and a great season.

Casted from replays 12 hours later by Axeltoss and Axslav sitting alone in a room! Oh boy that sounds exciting!

This title is way too drastic IMO, there are hints that MLG will broadcast PL in english, we still don't know...

This is really disappointing and doesn't make sense, even for KeSPA. If they're lucky they can find pair of inexperienced casters or some with bad English. If the foreign community keeps up the pressure the'll soon find out that most of people won't bother watching unless they leave it to OGN and proper casters like Doa.

It's nice that there are still people used to watching Korean casts (including me) but those few hundreds, maybe thousand hardcore fans won't save them. Time's changed and now everyone expects not only English stream but also other languages like French or Russian.

Let's hope this stubborn decision won't last long.

I watched BW without any English casters for years with no understanding of Korean, so this certainly won't prevent me from watching. But I still feel very bad for DoA, he's definitely one of the good ones, a great caster and a hard worker behind the scenes, so I really hope OGN is able to salvage this situation and get their English casts back.

If the MLG rumors are true, I don't quite understand how they are going to be able to pull off a quality live production from across the globe and there is no way I'm watching a rebroadcast or from-replay cast. We'll just have to wait and hope things turn out well.

It's times like these i'm thankful for how well GOM has treated the foreign audience all this time, with hands-down the best dual-language cast I could even imagine. It's too bad it hasn't worked out that way for the KeSPA side of things as of yet.
