Doesn't really matter, you can't practice two separate games at the same time and be really good at both. Would be absolutely fantastic though if they organized more BW tournaments. | ||

In fact, we can have a full SC2 league with OSL and Proleague but only an OSL tournament for BW with no team league. There would still be enough fans for that. | ||

Will it be the same players who play Sc2? How will that affect the games? Or will there be some other solution? Being a team league they can't just put in retired sc2 players like Jangbi or a few Sospa stars but still have to field teams of players which demands a certain level of infrastructure. I'd guess something small that goes more in line with Sospa, hopefully with no one trying to play in both. Pick a game you enjoy (for w/e reasons) and play it well! | ||

There would still be enough fans for that. Well that's not what I would call scaling down, but rather having everything as it is but adding stuff on top of it. You would probably have to scale down the SC2 stuff in order to make space (broadcast-wise and financially) for a BW league. That's just an assumption of course, because I don't think KeSPA want to throw money around like that and OGN has a pretty full schedule anyway. | ||

I know a few units like Dragoons, Goliath, vultures but not much. Well BW is an RTS, universe and lore are basically the same but that's about it. It's really a very different game from SC2 mechanic- and timing-wise. Especially Protoss and Zerg. But that shoudn't hinder you from understanding most of it. | ||

If EGTL stays I'd be a super happy man. I think they could compete this time around. | ||

Very unlikely that they stay, although it's hard to say considering we're in a shift right now. Also it's not only about being able to compete, it's also about whether or not it's worth it for them to invest the time, effort and money to compete. As for the idea that they're worthy opponents, I think it's a bit early to say. Do we know yet whether or not IM and MVP will compete in ProLeague? Because that could change things up quite a bit. :/ | ||
