Wow, thats big news. Really great. I have been waiting for this since final BW days.

But what is this trend in TL.net-forums to make threads in SC2 and then only speak about LoL?
Are we SC2 players to be convinced to follow the masses of LoL?
It's a bit of a shame. When you make a thread in SC2 forums, it should be primarily about SC2, and not exclusively about LoL. It's a shame, considering TL.net's history.

I still hope IM and some of the other good GSTL teams have an oppurtunity to enter PL. I rather see the top teams fighting than traditional teams, IM definately deserves to be in PL.


I am almost certain IM would be accepted into Kespa/SPL if LG got involved in a more direct way. EGTL as a foreign experiment notwithstanding, I'm not sure it's likely for SPL to let teams that run themselves into the league. I think they're looking for something more like a long-term commitment and ownership/sponsorship of the team.

If they let IM in, they will want there to be a team called LG IM 5 years from now no matter how well the team does, not for the head sponsor to decide "we ain't doing this anymore" next year and they end up stuck with another Team 8 situation.

Well considering they just picked up CoCa I guess the next thing on their bucket list was to get a sponsor and what do you know.. It's by Korean Air (one of the old sponsors). Is kind of weird because if they were going to sponsor a team I thought they would have done it a lot sooner, but whatever..

Maybe in time. Anyway, it looks like we're getting the OGN SparkyZ/Woongjin Stars tacky green and yellow color scheme back. huehuehue. These uniforms should be interesting.

I'm an SKT1 guy, but this is fantastic news. I always felt bad for those guys not having the support they needed and deserved because of a lack of sponsorship.

Go Green Wings!! (Just not too far)

It is without a doubt that the addition of LoL to SPL/KeSPA was the catalyst to this sponsorship.

Not that I'm not super psyched about T8 getting a sponsorship, but it may not be the savior of sc2 that people think it is.


Well, even if that's the case, isn't it awesome that LoL is helping out SC2 aswell now? That shows us that the full incorporation of LoL into KeSPA will bring good opportunities for SC2, too.

So is Jin Air like the equivalent of jetBlue? Sort of weird having an airline as a sponsor, but I guess the Korean sponsors are all random super companies. I know I wouldn't go fly on a different airline just because someone was sponsored by it... This ain't electronics, ya know?



I'd say more like the equivalent of Spirit in the US or Ryan Air in Europe... low cost flights, etc.

Yes, I never said this isn't a positive step for sc2 division of T8.
However, it goes to show how big LoL has gotten compared to Sc2.
My fear is that eventually Sc2 will be demoted to Special Forces status or be abandoned altogether by KeSPA.
It is hard to say that Sc2 is growing.
