I really don't understand why they don't go back to BW, it's still more popular. SC2's popularity can only decrease from here until the teams disband altogether (no PL, no point). There's no future in it.

Woongjin first hearthstone pro team?

I am recently playing Hearthstone hard. It also has a lot of potentials to grow as an esport.


Isn't that game incredibly luck-based, like MTG? I mean MTG is great and some years ago I really got into extended but apart from perfecting your deck and the probabilities of good card draw there is not that much to do strategically. Sure you can bet on your opponent having certain cards but... meh.

Without having played it, I could only imagine (supposing you are right about it) that it would be better if played like poker, where the players are just aiming to win the most, so it's more a matter of strategically deciding how much to be when.

Fingers crossed for Woongjin!

Just 6 days into closed beta in Korea and there is already discussion for E-Sport. Hearthstone Pro-League incoming?

Such a gloomy interview. I want to be hopeful, but without a LoL team to subsidize the SC2 squad I don't think the team can survive.

"Esports started with fans, so if they do not care about this, it won't change in future either."

I would expect the first pro player to die due to boredom within the year.

Watching Woonjin play in proleague last season was very enjoyable. I hope they will manage to rebuild so that we can see more awesome games from them.

Hell, seeing how both LoL and Dota manage to be so stupidly popular, nothing would suprise me at this point.

So sad to see teams with absolutely incredible players like Woongjin Stars and STX Soul struggle so much...

Never knew Silent_Control and Cloud were traded with each other teams where they peaked. You learn something new every day.

Great interview, thanks
Always like to hear from the top dogs of korean teams, especially KESPA run ones as they seem more disciplined than others xD

Teams are decreasing the sizes because the popularity of Starcraft 2 in Korea has decreased.

However, to see the whole esport scene, it's developing as LOL is getting popular.

They could look into working together with other teams. Nazgul for example recently said that HerO's housing situation isn't fully decided yet and depending on where he stays he could be participating in Proleague. Stuff like that wouldn't hurt their budget and still help them participate - especially if it's someone like HerO who's got tons of fans paying attention

I hope they have been able to keep their sick team house.

What are you implying by saying that? Both games are excellent and provide good entertainment, hence their popularity.
