But I guess you have to make up the numbers somehow. If theres one thing you can be sure of KeSPA, thats professionalism (although it can go absurd at times). Also I think they will still keep "core" members aka chaebols like Samsung Im sick of those partnership team bullshit. Hope this move marks the end of that
Uh, I don't see how. Will be easier to join Proleague, doesn't mean that partnership teams like EGTL or AxiomAcer couldn't do it as well.
Not even gonna ask why you'd dislike them in the first place. Probably just hate fun

This chairman did a lot of things in less than one year, much better than any American politicians.

Hopefully no one goes apeshit trying to sabotage for the other part. If everything works out, this might (will) mean that we'll get something like 10 teams in Proleague again, and that's really something to strive for, at least in my limited perspective.

Incoming unified PL with GoM broadcasting
(Hopefully)

I wish my govermnent would pass an "eSports Promotion Bill" too hhehehe, South Korea is really a unique country in this regard.
So, does it mean more unified league for SC2 ? Don't know if this is a good thing or not. A unified system would bring more power and ressources, but I feel competition is always better for the viewer/consumer.

Easier to join KeSPA as a Korean organization imo
Those teams are basically last resort filler teams. They come and go and not fully commit. They cant stand on their own feet (not enough players, foreign commitment etc). Will you put the sustainability of your league in that kind of team if it's not for desperate situation?

Keep in mind though that Team 8 was also a last resort filler team consisting of players from different teams that, and the team was unable to stand on its own for 2 full seasons of Proleague.

Very interesting, I look forward to see how it develops.

I think you mean "was able"?

Did they really have a choice ? Unless they wanted to run a 6-team Proleague, of course.
Thanks for the translation

So is this good or bad?
Primarily good if you want starcraft to do well in korea.
Really happy to see this announcement, PL should be sick next season and I expect less drama to come from kespa in the future.

This has the potential to be great and awesome, but I remain viciously pessimistic.
If all of the teams become KeSPA, and then it lasts even 2 years without some sort incredible drama surfacing, I will be amazed. Either in SC2, LoL, or both.
|
Could go either way. Hopefully some unification, but could be a big blow to Gom and Esf.
|
This is VERY interesting because the shift is done because of the decline that KeSPA have.
With a power restructure like this they can maintain the main governing body AND expand much larger.
Imo this is a very good change especially for the eSport in Korea.
(SC2 can actually jump on the huge LoL hype even more)
|
this sounds really good to me but i am pretty much a noob and dont know shit.
looking forward to see how this is going.

Does this mean, I am part of KeSPA too?

Team 8 is a special case. When 3 (!) big teams dissolved, you oughta do something for 1.the fans 2.the players(many) 3.your league
Oh and they were operated by KeSPA so they didnt go anywhere. Dunno why you bring out this example lol
