I seem to recall that some of this past OSL WCS was actually not broadcast on TV either though. Pretty bad deal since it meant less of the awesome GOM production. | ||

I started out last season only watching GOM but I slowly switched over to OGN to hear that specific combo. It's exactly the same for me, but I always wondered how they managed to work that hard and cast both games so well. Must have been extremely exhausting. | ||

Not sure why you list all of those separately when Axiom-Acer are a joint team, and so are/were EG-TL (whose participation in the next season is so far unconfirmed but largely believed to be unlikely). Jin Air is essentially Kespa Team 8 finally finding a sponsor, so not exactly a new team getting involved in the scene. (and to put things into perspective, it was the combined remnants of MBCGame Hero, WeMadeFOX and Hwaseung Oz to begin with, teams that disbanded not too long ago) Plus, considering Bogus' transfer to Acer (which definitely does not bode well for STX considering they've announced recently that they will continue to support the team, and now lose their brightest star) and the struggles of what we considered the most financially secure eSF team in IM with their main sponsor (LG), things aren't exactly all sunshine and rainbows. We'll just have to wait and see. And to everyone wishing for a joint GSTL-PL, Scarlett already leaked there will be a 2nd Season of GSTL so we may not get to see that just yet, if ever. :/ | ||

In the meantime, it makes sense to focus their efforts on something that brings more viewership. Afterall, who wants to broadcast for an audience who basically has no respect for how they have run things for so long? | ||

How do you know they'll still be broadcasting WCS? | ||

They got a contract with blizzard,got about 8 sc2 teams with good sponsors,sc2 is the second most viewed esport in korea etc.Don't get it twisted.OGN wants to broadcast sc2/What you see here is nothing less than petty frictions between ogn and gom.Nothing to do with sc2.If you wanna know how low korean televisions go when it comes to competition between them just watch some of khaldor older blogs on the topic of ogn-gom frictions.For example ogn and kespa didnt want their players to play in the gsl and esf player had to threaten to boycot the osl.Only then did kespa players were allowed in the gsl.Its the petty politics that are killing sc2 in korea not the game itself. | ||

I'm sure this contract you're speaking of also includes broadcasting this season, and yet they're not. How curious.  I'd also like to see a source for "sc2 is the second most viewed esport in korea" although I doubt you can provide one. | ||
