No BW bashing. No SC2 bashing. This should be obvious. While it's okay to be upset, let's not start that hopeless argument again.

Starcraft II Starleague so redundant lol, should be called SPOTV SC2 League (SS2L) to distinguish it from Sonic's thing.

Or SSL could rename itself now that it's on OGN, maybe something like OBS (OGN Broodwar Starleague)

SPOTV Starcraft 2 Starleague, the SSSL
SPOTV Starcraft 2 Starcraft League
SPOTV Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Starcraft League, SSC2HotSSL
And for when LotV gets released in the middle of a season: SPOTV Starcraft 2: Heart of the Swarm & Legacy of the Void Hybrid Starcraft League, SSC2HotS&LotVHSL

A lot of people are going on about the name, SSL, but I rather like it. Besides, most people will just call in Starleague.

I think it's a fine name. Does it really even matter that it shares an acronym with Sonic's BW league? Its a funny coincidence but that's about it. Plus, now that its on OGN, how do we know that the Sonic Starleague will even keep the same name for more than another season or two?

I explained on the previous page, its not an OGN league, its only being broadcasted on OGN, its still sonic's league.

I don't care what SPOTV calls their league in particular but I'd rather not have to deal with unnecessary confusion of sharing the same acronym especially when it comes to LR threads....I don't want to deal with the LR community.

also I believe LSW is going to cast both the SPOTV and the sonic starleague, even more confusion.

Enlighten me. Why does it matter that they share an acronym?

Sure its a small inconvenience for folks writing live report stuff. Tough luck. I know that its not being run by OGN but that doesn't mean that the change in broadcaster won't lead to a name change anyway.

sure maybe down the line the name would change, in the mean time its 2 brands putting out different(somewhat same, I guess) products but sharing the same name.

I don't know whats more sad BW folks hoping for :revive" when bw is doing fine as causal game on afreeca with decent viewership and running tournaments or ppl complaining about 3 letters about project which they don't even work on do some work for it and than you can be complaing about the game. OGN wont provide SC2 content, just remeber in the past GOM exp vs spotv...

Just let them provide StarCraft Brood War casual league and SC2 cups on two different things and dont look on the name bot on quality of the event. I almost feel like SC BW and SC2 community need every piece of mistake detaile or error and scale it 1000000000000000000x more than it should be, just sad...

Don't generalize, the BW community is not freaking out over this,I am

I'm not representing the BW community, I'm representing my interests and my views.

You're right, my complaining doesn't actually help, but I'm airing out my disappointment.

why the acronyms wouldn't be the same if it's about different games. you could even guess how much proleagues are there. btw, gsl is actually garena starleague @ league of legends.

the thing i really wonder is why thursday is empty while wednesday both SPOTV SL and GSL are played.

Yeah, surely it's in their mutual interest to not go head to head, let alone for us watching, unless SPOTV are making a statement that they can challenge GOM for sole ownership of the Korean scene
