Have you guys seen how those fans greeted them at Blizzcon when GSL's final was held there with MVP playing?

In the documentary "State of Play", as Jaedong was leaving, only ONE fan showed up to take pictures and singing with him. If as it is that they don't even know who those legends are.


I remember when they first came overseas and they were swarmed by the fans and the response was overwhelming (BW days ofc -- not talking about the MLG hoopla). I never watched that documentary but that sounds rather sad for only one person to show up, but something tells me that doesn't give us the full picture. I'm sure there was a small crowd that showed up to take pictures with him as he was leaving. It probably happened elsewhere and just not for that shot. Hmph.

I honestly didn't have big expectations for bisu when he moved to sc2. I figured he would try it out and see how he did at it then decide if it was for him or not. He did severely hype hots for a bit and making tournament appearances energized the fan base. I guess now he wants to move on since he didn't enjoy the game that much. I wish him the best.
There's no S in KT. :P

Balloons?


One donation "balloon" is 7 cents, so his money donations show up as balloons on the afreeca stream

How do I give Bisu balloons then? I figure he deserves some money for having entertained me the last 6 years with his fantastic play.

I would like so much if BW starts to sprout again, from barren earth.
The shiny, artificial, fabricated SC2 collapses, and BW comes to life.

Well, even if it does... kaboom lawsuit.

You can't donate without having a valid Korean credit card since other TL members tried with their credit cards and they didn't work lol.

All these players going back to BW is really making me more interested in it. I find myself watching more BW streams than I do SC2 streams.

I'd get bored too if I played BW Protoss and had to play SC2 Protoss... Bisu's talent was multitasking, SC2 Protoss doesn't really give Bisu the chance to use his talents.

Still handsome eh.

Been watching him streaming BW, and I have to say he's not as fast as he used to be which is expected.

Hope he practices hard and tears it up in the next SSL, oh and LOLLLLL can you imagine Bisu with short hair? He's due for military service soon right?

Ahahahahaha can't wait to see Bisu with a buzz cut ahahahahahaha

sadly RTS games are just not the flavor at the moment and for the past few years. so sc2 never really had a chance imho


I don't get this type of reasoning.

Back in early 2000s RTS wasn't the big thing or flavor of the month. CS/FPS was.
During the mid 2000s, Dota/TFT was the biggest thing and with that comes the Moba games that we have now.

RTS was NEVER big since the start of the global E-sport scene.

This is just dumb.


RTS genre has taken a huge nosedive in recent years, anyone who has been interested in gaming for the last couple decades could tell you that. Just look at the number of RTS titles released these days, very low. Between the mid 90's - early 00's the RTS genre was super popular, Command and Conquer, Total Annihilation, Age of Empires, Starcraft, Warcraft etc were filling the genre up with titles to choose from.

Also remember that it was an RTS game (Broodwar) that really made e-sports. Before that game there was no legitimate pro gaming scene anywhere.

But after SPL transitioned into SC2, the number of fans in the live events reduced to less than half in a month.

“It’s not only me. Other players felt the same. When seeing an empty venue, it is really hard to find the right sense of competition. When we see no fans, then it is meaningless to train so hard to play competitively.”

The rapid loss of fans was unexpected by many people including Bisu. Bisu thought that fans will return eventually. But one day he realized that fans truly left.

“Fans are leaving continually. What’s the meaning of me keep playing. My heart is empty. It is such a feeling of void that I have never experienced during SC1. Being a progamer can no longer make my heart pound.”


This made my heart hurt =(

This is the result of artificially forcing Starcraft 2 in the spotlight and trying to phase out BW.
But it's good news that he went back playing the game that he loves.

Bahaha, maybe Blizzard will appreciate the criticism of how they ruined SC2 when progamers continually leave to play a 15 year old game again!

[image loading]

=(. Watching redeye (bottom right) come out and have to host/introduce the event to that "crowd" was just sad and painful to watch. And then they brought the players out to stand on the stage and pretend like there were people to talk to.

Atleast it was just open bracket, and I know by the end around 40% of the chairs or so got taken, and there were decent stream numbers. But I can see from Bisu's perspective, to walk out to THIS, and be like "why am i even here."
