Its going to be REALLY awkward for Gom not to have their previous GSTL champions in the GSTL


And the runner up lol. I will be really sad if this happens because I don't want GSTL to suffer, even though I would be happy to see this help out Proleague. Seems like kind of a Catch 22, either way somebody has to lose out

The stupid thing is this would just shut down the GSTL and probably not actually improve viewership/quality of SPL significantly.

It's nothing but a terrible loss, as far as I can tell.

It's a complete loss, to me.


Adding more teams to Proleague would both increase the quality and viewership, IM has tons of fans who will tune into watch them play in Proleague and more teams(as long as they're competitive) can never be a bad thing. Korea can't support two team leagues, you only have to look as far as the pitiful GSTL audiences to see that.

They wouldn't. It's not like EG and TL where their individual rosters are too small to stand alone in a Korean Team League.
If you don't like it, you can quit.

This isn't news yet, it's just a banner image on the korean equivalent of TL.

It's what most of us want to see happen though I think.

MVP and IM are way better than EG-TL and both have extremely deep rosters that can do well in PL format

True. Also, it would be hilariously sad for Gom to lose both GSTL finalists to KeSPA.

Does being in one forbid the other?

I don't think either team will join KeSPA, but if they do join Proleague, it's going to be so huge a commitment to stay competitive in the league that it'll be extremely difficult for them to be stretched thin to do both Proleague and GSTL.


I don't think they could do both, a lot of times GSTL/Proleague would air at the same time or very very close and I doubt either organisation wants to spend a lot of time trying to schedule around that.


Proleague line up:
Mvp - captain
Yonghwa
First
Kangho
YoDa
Ragnarok
Squirtle

GSTL lineup:
Nestea - captain
MC
Ruin
Byul
Fenix?

They can get Madbull and jjakji to bolster their squad. Maybe Tassadar just to be funny.

Not yet confirmed. In fact even less than confirmed, it's assuming here has been a leak to the Korean website and that they have revealed it now via a banner.

EG-TL were meant to stomp SPL before the SPL started coz they had a "deep" roster. Don't give in to pre SPL hype!

Nobody in their right minds expected EGTL to stomp, it was pure hype.

(I expected them to finish 6/7th)
