Does anyone know if the OSL is dead, or will it keep going?
it's up to them we really don't know, with ogn not being as involved in sc2 now it wouldn't all that unlikely, however it could just mean they are focusing on OSL.

Seriously people, you have nothing to bitch about. Nothing. Stop the whining over OGN. They didn't want to broadcast it, so too bad for them. This prize pool is big and better than any of us were expecting.
Broadcast TV is sort of past its prime and SC2 does seem to live on the internet only.

If SC2 starts catching on again in Korea, I'm sure it'll get picked up for TV. This was expected though, regarding OGN changing to LoL.
P.S. I have no idea why they would do Bo5 over Bo7, but I'm o.k. with it either way.
I like this post lol.
But seriously, it's so weird that OGN drops out but SKTelecom shells out this big prize pool. I'm actually super happy with how it's working haha. And, I don't even mind the Bo5. Is it as good as BO7? Maybe not, but I think it'll be okay, mostly because the quality of games last season were good enough that a BO5 would still feel, idk, impactful.
With all the prize pool has to offer it's little wonder so many teams went over, seems pretty sick. Also while OGN might be out 4ever, hopefully they're just gonna focus on OSL, even if the OSL will be probably smaller.
I've heard rumors about OGN creating another Proleague for LoL. I guess they completely abandoned SC2 Proleague and will fill up the remaining time slots with Champions or LoL Proleague.
