Really cool. I don't think Naver has prior eSport sponsorships? At least nothing of this magnitude. Its always nice to see new faces on the sponsorship side.

To be honest I am not surprised that the tournaments produced by SpoTV are generating more interest lately. Their production is very good, they have made a great job in hyping their tournaments, last year's PL was an indisputable success, and now very few people would say Code S/WCS KR is a better tournament (quality issues, etc.). I'd like to think this is a sign that while SC2 will never be as mainstream as other competitive games it is definitely a healthy game and has a bright future ahead just because of the hardcore niche it exploits (which is basically us).

SSL/SpoTV always has been good imo. Plus they improved very much and I prefer them over GSL at this point.

This is a potentially sick sponsor and I'm happy for them. Hope they keep it up! This should give them plenty motivation.

Don't forget webtoons. If you read any Korean webtoons, chances are they are published under Naver.

Man, this is what it feels like when a company actually listens to it's demographics. This is the first proleague individual league and its done so well from what i can only imagine was from all the feed back they've gotten since the first hybrid league. It's hard to believe in what GSL is doing when they've come only so far, which is barely anything if we compare it to other leagues throughout e-sports. SpoTV is doing a great job in listening to its consumers! Please give me more zoom in's on pros faces after bad micro mistakes!

I just want to know how a sponsorship/deal like this ended up happening, haha


This is also freaking cool.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
