With sc2 so far GOM hasn't always gotten it right, but it's been pretty open and accessible for all players. But now we have KeSPA playing in the GSL, and the door has been opened for eSF players to join KeSPA teams. But where are the eSF teams in proleague? Why does it feel (at least to me) like GOM is being open with KeSPA, but KeSPA isn't exactly being open to GOM? I understand they are competing, but it just seems to me like KeSPA's heavy handed style of handling everything is coming back. And as KeSPA continues to become more and more relevant I fear that it's going to spell bad news for the foreign community. Hope I'm wrong Worst part is I find myself watching proleague more often then GSL lately. Even though I think GSL is better quality matches overall, I'm just more interested in the proleague teams. I don't really know why, I just find myself more interested in the teams and storylines of proleague...and I hate that I do. I think with GOM taking the risk establishing GSL and really helping get foreigners into it that I owe them some loyalty...I mean doesn't anybody remember how exciting it was when GSL was announced and everybody would be allowed to play in it, not just KeSPA licensed progamers? If Kespa had not been pressured with that boycott issue a few months ago, I don't even know if KeSPA would even be playing the GSL Well, whatever team Parting ends up in, he'll be the #1 player (at least in sc2 skill), and having to play GSL (occasionally) and Proleague twice a week, bye bye Parting in foreign tournaments (He didn't attend many, anyway) | ||

I guess the first T is for Telecom the T for T1 does not stand for Team1 but Tier1 pertaining to internet connection since SKT is also an ISP | ||

I would say that this has as much about the money of the KeSPA teams as it has with the possibility to play on TV. I hope he goes to T8 or KHAN, no SKT or KT plz. | ||

Parting is so much better than almost all players, Kespa or not. All the top Koreans are basically around the same level. Literally no one, not even 2011 MVP, has demonstrated actual complete dominance for extended periods of time. Every single player has had their ups and downs. Players appear, vanish, and reappear in the span of months. Parting might do well in Proleague, but there's no guarantee that he would dominate like "lions among tiger cubs." | ||
