Without as much monetary incentive, it's a much bigger risk for an NA or EU player to play SC2 fulltime. | ||

I think it's also better for the scene that pro players actually enjoy playing the game. | ||

Sorry to say this, but SC2 is not the most fun game to play. Especially not when you're forced to play it a lot, like most full time players (or at least I hope they play the game a lot). Making money off the game makes for a different situation, but I guess it's easy to get greedy and not appreciate the fact that you're making a living playing a video game. | ||

How can you judge the impact of a new format when it hasn't even started yet? This makes very little sense when that was not the reason given for considering scaling back their involvement in SC2. Like pretty much zero sense as Scarlett also talks about hand injuries as well. And especially when Scarllet says this: What about WCS next year? I actually like WCS next year. I think the format is better except Challenger league. I think it should be group stage. I think it's silly you only play one match in Challenger and if you lose it you're out, I don't like that at all. I like how it's semi-region locked, it's easier to stay in Premier. I got to the Round of 16 every season this year, so if I do the same thing next year I'll always be in Premier. I think these changes would be better if they only kept the Top 8 players in. No need for conspiracy theories and tourney hate. | ||

But Koreans were everywhere 2 years ago to. Winning many MLG, DH, IEM, Nasl. | ||

And Lord Nazgul, Scarlett and Stephano are bound to retire eventually. Isn't the problem a lack of players to replace them? | ||

A true pro gamer is someone like Jaedong who I remind you has been playing far longer and more intensely than all the foreigners/koreans that have been retiring lately. As long as Jaedong remains in the scene with his personality and EG's marketing the scene will be fine! :D She IS a progamer. Comparing her to Jaedong is fruitless, he is something else. But she has been working fucking hard and it makes me really sad her wrist injuries are so severe. | ||
