It's already is. Only Startale is missing but I figure they will end up joining unless something happens

Next season (if there will even be another PL) will probably be a merge b/w MVP + Prime and ST will join PL

That's an unrealistically optimistic pipedream you have there. Do we need to remind people that this is KeSPA we're talking about here?

Really sad to see another great team go. Reading this and choya's twitter made me teary eyed.
fOu was easily one of my favourite teams from the start of SC2/GSL/GSTL days. I had so much fun watching GSL back in the day and to see one of the earliest SC2 teams go... I don't even know what to say. It just makes me really sad to see old teams/progamers disband/retire... sigh.

Mad props to Choya for keeping the team running over the years. Good luck to him in the Army and afterwards, and to all the players, hopefully they can all get picked up, if not good luck to them in whatever they do in life. Its just so sad seeing people quit progaming.

Kespa has on numerous occasions shown themselves to be a bunch of underhanded bullies in fancy suites. This is the company that tried to pull all Kespa players from the GSL with just a couple of days notice in some bizarre mussel flexing ritual which subsequently blew up in their face (GOM basically responded by saying “your guys not in the GSL? Our guys not in the OSL” and Kespa blinked first). By reaching out to IM, Prime and MVP this just seemed like an opportunity to make a move to facilitate themselves as the sole organisers of SC2 team-league in Korea. I think any sane business would’ve done the same. Then consider that this is Kespa, a company that seem to derive pleasure from needless conflict and pointless public displays of bravado. Your idea of a collaboration, while no doubt would be awesome for the fans, would just never happen. Not even in the most far-fetched fantasy.

kespa has to realize they need to change, if they haven't already. they could do whatever they wanted with brood war because the game was huge and all the competition was upstart. if they try to take the ball and go home with SC2 proleague might simply die. everyone loses.

I always felt that the SC2 scene had too many teams and players to sustain itself since the addition of the Kespa teams. Teams disbanding is completely expected. Especially with LOL taking off and SC2 being weaker in Korea than BW. If we end up with as many teams and players in Korea as we had during BW along with a strong foreign scene, I'd call that a win.

We now have about 1/3 of the pro players we had in BW though I'd say.

Yeah, team number is about the same between BW and SC2 but the rosters or say the number of players in Korea was larger during BW
