Do we have any idea who the english casters will be and how much support they will receive. it was kind of lacklustre last time.

Well Whiplash is still in Korea. Last time I heard anything about it, they were looking for a second caster. I hope they get a good one.

The eSF guys should all get hugely successful LoL teams now to troll the shit out of KeSPA.

I don't think they are willing to spend a large amount of money so probably not.

I REALLY want to get in on this (though not permanently). I'm in Daegu, South Korea right now. How can I apply?

interesting situation at this point, if you want to have an even number of team


The problem with the teams as is though is that there is a fairly massive power divide in terms of talent between KT SKT IM MVP and the rest of the proleague. Prime does have Maru and a few very good player so they are probably the 5th best team but those 4 are just far and away outclassing the rest.

Edit: I forgot CJ but I have not been keeping up with them so im not sure where they fall.

Does anyone know how sponsorship money is distributed among KeSPA teams nowadays? Iirc, years ago they changed the system so that instead of sponsorship money going directly to their respective teams, the money would all get pooled together by KeSPA and redistributed more evenly amongst the teams. I wonder if they're still using this system now that some former eSF teams have joined.

So where does StarTale fit in all of this? I honestly don't get why they keep getting left behind in favour of other teams, even Prime.

Prime not dead?

Woongjin Prime incoming


WoongjinPrimeTL - Nazgul said HerO might play in PL

Wait he's staying at the IM house so that'd make more sense


Yeah but Snute's staying with CJ and there's a CJ video on the TL youtube channel.

CJ 2, IM 1.

At the KeSPA pro-gamer education seminar, KeSPA chairman Korean MP Jeon Byung Heon announced that the new StarCraft 2 Proleague would launch in December.

Additionally, players from MVP, Prime and IM were seen at the seminar. With the three teams having left the eSF in September, it appears they are well on the path to joining KeSPA, if not de facto members already.

Also, it was announced that work was being done on a new LoL league outside OGN's Champions, which many speculate to be a LoL Proleague.


Ofc they were. It's happening.

IM/MVP dont seem to keep up. When the like of Losira/Keen advanced the furthest in individual league, you know your team is not so hot. The problem with esf/ex-esf teams are that upcoming talents are almost non-existent
Plus it's goddamn Proleague. Looks what happened to EGTL

All factors concerned, I'd say SKT > CJ = Jinair > IM = KT > Samsung > MVP > Prime. Dunno how the neo-Stars will shaped up. Maybe they dig up some hidden, Sora kinda of rookie; maybe they partner up with other teams, who knows.

Yea Losira is the highest player yet Byul was top 8 in the season finals. And EGTL never took Proleague serious so that is a really bad example.
