I was actually think about the possibility of GSTL becoming a bracket-based team-league with kespa teams last night. Would be very cool if they could make it happen.

The return of GOMTV Classic(BW) is not planned as a continuous tournament at the moment, but if fans' feedback is good, it may continue.

GSTL being discussed with KeSPA? It might be some kind of STX Masters, winnerleague only, which is nice considering SPL completely abandoned this format

I would prefer GSTL to just merge with PL into a single focused team league.

article only specifies players like Innovation and Jaedong who are more active overseas, doesn't say anything about foreign players

I guess it would be dumb to call it a WC without inviting foreign players, and it's pretty typical of DES to just focus on old BW stars like JD

Global Championship will be a tier 3 Global league which includes not only players in Korean region(GSL), but also players in America and Europe.

Means 7000 points instead of 4000, requires 75k prize pool etc I believe.

Tier 3 sounds more like the 10k one - havent found any official source which is which - but at least liqupedia has settled that Tier 1 is the biggest, and tier 3 smallest: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2014_StarCraft_II_World_Championship_Series

by implication yes, but the DES article summary is very focused on Korean players

That's awesome

They can just join kespa like IM, MVP and Prime did. No need for a merge. Unless you want GOM to broadcast SPL? Personally I think this Proleague season is perfectly fine as is, casters, location, etc.
