It's downtime in a non-hype group in Code A, it's not what GSL is all about lol

And 10k (non-korean) viewers live for a KR prime time event is kinda big...

Oh no, i guess there is no chance we are going to see one more PL season in 2015
The only possibility is that some foreign team replaces IM (MVP and Prime don't look healthy either...)

Mvp's been on IM for as long as I can remember, and Squirtle grew into a distinguished part of the team. Really sad with them leaving Although I am a fan of both the team and the players, so maybe this can give them(the players) a new start(which they might've needed)

It's just a code A group, they are always around 10-15k and you forget that the korean audience is their main demographic.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

My point was to say that sc2 audiences are not that bad, and that pointing to foreign audiences is irrelevant

Closing in on 60k tho, the first game just started 25 minutes ago, give it some time and the LoL viewership is gonna get higher and higher. After all, this is SKT T1 K vs Samsung White :D

And foreign audiences are not really irrelevant at all. Not the most important factor but faaaaaar, far away from irrelevant.

Edit: And at the same time, the LoL audiences tend to not value the korean scene as highly as the BW scene, due to many people being more casual about it and heavily favoring teams from "their region", rather than the top notch play.

KeSPA has already mentioned being very positive about the next season of Proleague. Don't worry about it.

I'm sad to see this happen to IM, though. They've been a favorite team of mine for long, especially after they picked up Squirtle. IM didn't pump out GSL champions anymore, but they still had 5 players in Code S last season, behind only SKTT1 with 6 players. I was really excited to see what they could do next season of Proleague.

Oh well, at least if Squirtle is picked up by a foreign team, I'll get to see him at more events!
