I hope you will do itAn All-Star team would be a good option, when most of the existing rosters of the teams can't live in Korea, but normally you should invite the orignal teams. GL with this step

Therefore I would propose, if you really want to open it up which I don't think is a good idea, to get either Chinese (iG) or Taiwanese (Yoe Flash Wolves) teams in or maybe some all-star lineup from Taiwan/China. Just no more EG-TL joke teams plz. | ||

You could have top foreigners like snute, bunny etc rotating in and out. Innovation mma jaedong taeja etc being there more often. Kespa has to be flexible to make something like this work. If assembled it would be huge boost for viewer count and exposure. TB's saint levels are being tested so hard | ||

So that's why I don't think just putting some kind of "allstar" team together and make them play in Proleague won't necessarily work that well. Another problem is the fact that a ProLeague season is super long (almost a year), and the players that we are talking about are actually interested in playing in weekend tournaments/WCS/other events, so getting them to fully commit for a whole ProLeague season won't be easy. Here are 3 potentials ideas (constructive feedback always welcome) 1. A good way to do it would be to have an allstar team in Korea, but: - To require those players to focus primarily on ProLeague so they are competitive on don't drag the level of play down (no weekend tournament outside of korea during the time where they play in ProLeague) - To allow easy and unlimited player changes between rounds That way, the players interested would be able to go to Korea to train and participate in ProLeague fully (and show their real skill) but wouldn't have to commit for a whole year, just for one round or two (so they would still be able to participate in many weekend tournaments during the rest of they year). I don't really have any idea regarding who would provide the living accomodation/coaching staff for such an "allstar team" though. 2. Another idea would be to maybe allow "player exchanges" between kespa and non-kespa teams ? There are probable a few kespa players that are interested in taking part in foreign tournaments, so just as an example, imagine if KT could "trade" Stats against Innovation for a round or two. That way, Stats could play in overseas tournament and teamleagues with Acer (if he's interested in doing that ofc), and Inno would take his place in the KT house, benefit from the KT coaching and playing in Proleague in Stat's place. 3. Another idea could be to have all current korean kespa teams to partner up with non-kespa teams/players, and play bo7 instead of bo5 where each team would have to field one non-kespa player at each match. But this would enforce all team to get partnerships, even those who aren't really interested, so that's not great. | ||

The real challenge however is to open proleague to be rebroadcast at EU-NA friendly time. A recent initiative of GSL allowing french crew Ogamingtv to broadcast GSL at european time is the way to go imo. | ||

EG-TL Axiom-Acer: INnovation +++ MMA ++ Scarlett ++ Nerchio + Bly Paranoid Alicia ++ Crank ++ Heart ++ Ryung ++ Impact ++ EG-TL: Jaedong +++ HuK + Suppy Xenocider Demuslim TaeJa +++ HerO +++ Bunny ++ Snute ++ TLO + MaNa + Ret + One plus: Capable of winning some maps Two pluses: Capable of being in the lineup successfully constantly winning 50%+ matches Three pluses: Capable to be among top ranked players in proleague. Both teams would be capable to compete, EGTL are more top heavy, but Axiom-Acer is more balanced, Axiom alone brings pretty muc hviable lineup, acer adds Ace in InNoVation and few other capable players, but mostly substitutes except for MMA. EGTL would have 3 monster players and 2 arguably best foreigners at this point who are more than capable of taking some maps in proleague making it scary 5 player lineup. | ||

Would be pretty awesome watching Proleague from Cologne with Liquid staying there. | ||

I mean that would lessen the live viewing experience by quite a lot for the Korean audience, unless adding new teams would increase the number of games by so much that some have to be played without live audience. | ||
