He was mad because there isn't going to be an english broadcast and he wanted to let everyone know.

and tell people to boycott the league and stuff. nice guy.

So will there be VODs on Twitch for now? Or no VODs at all until they get the Youtube channel going?

The company that owns SPOTV, which will split the broadcasting duties with OGN (weekdays only for SPOTV iirc).

He never told anyone to boycott. If anything, he told everyone NOT to boycott it. Doa is not that stupid.

Ugh, Kespa sounds like that Iraqi minister of information that made these crazy propaganda broadcasts during the US invasion 10 years ago.

In the end, for all their talking and bitching at DoA, they never once said that there will be an English stream for the opening round of the PL. Nor any timeline as to when they may get their English stream up.
Such flammable little insects!

DoA had already announced to the community that he would be casting games. So I think he was right to let us know why, from his perspective, that wouldn't be happening. But even if he was just a drama queen, I hope Kespa will learn a lesson from this. If you don't provide clear information to the community, then you are very vulnerable to rumours and misinformation being spread. A commitment to providing an english stream, and the location of the stream URL, should have been announced by Kespa a week ago.

Let's be realistic, guys. The people that would boycott Proleague because of this represent a very very small percentage of the viewing population, so that really shouldn't be an issue. However, there will be people that will certainly not watch the games without an English commentary, but I don't see that as boycotting, simply prioritizing their viewing by watching other events.

KeSPA's official response to misinformation posted on TeamLiquid

Until a final agreement has been reached, OnGameNet's stance is that it will not broadcast in English during the weekend games of Proleague, and will only provide a clean feed of Proleague to IEG, the delivery agency.
<snip>


So basically, OGN wont be doing english production, but will feed IEG with video (without korean commentary) so IEG can do live English commentary on top of it. The english casters just wont be physically in the TV studio with the crowd and players.

Am i understanding this correctly?

People, don't suddenly start attacking DoA just because KeSPA says he's wrong. The real truth is almost certainly somewhere between the two statements, and it seems pretty obvious at this point that there's some tension between KeSPA and OGN.

In light of this news, DoA was way too quick to write up that dooms-day post. He probably should have waited it out a bit more before drawing drastic conclusions.


I wouldn't say it was a doomsday post.

Doa didn't write a doomsday post.

I'm sure I could benefit from more information, as we all could, but here is the thing. People want to see this more than any other thing in SC2. It's huge. EG-TL in proleague? It's begging an english commentary. They're shooting their own feet and losing a big audience.

Reminds of the Los Angeles international airport (LAX) workers union protesting on thanksgiving holidays. Who is really going to sympathize with that, when it causes delays and cancellations, only for some employee benefits that can be worked out at a later time.

Or the musician's union of Los Angeles who stubbornly tossing away studio gigs for every video game produced in this town because of an absolute refusal to reconsider back-end deals with video game companies (union doesn't compromise and thus starves and chokes itself).

It's just stubbornness. We don't care about care about perfect contracts and agreements. We just want to see a damn English stream with high level casting. And if we as an audience matter, then go out of the way to make a USEABLE agreement FOR NOW and fix it in the future.

PRACTICALITY is most important. If you stall things out forever, you will simply never accomplish anything and just waste a lot of money, like the U.S. government. I hope someone steps up to the plate and accommodates what will be a substantial audience.

EDIT: Because of the update, it appears someone stepped up to the plate. Hopefully it is more than just opening day.

It seems that is an option, but certainly nothing is guaranteed as of now. This response by KeSPA basically seems like a rebuke of Doa's previous announcement.

The fact that his post, accurate or not, was credible speaks volumes about the credibility and attitude of KeSPA with regards to foreign fans. Can you imagine Tasteless accusing GOM of dumping English casts and it getting any traction at all? Of course not, because GOM is open and reaches out to foreign fans, and thus has their trust and does well by them.
A soft answer turneth away wrath. Once wrath is looking the other way, shoot it in the head.
