Holy this is huge. Good job SSL.
At the current pace SSL might overtake GSL completely at the end of the year.

Time to get on SpoTV's level, GOM.
It's a great news.

I'm guessing KeSPA involvement makes quite the difference.

No it doesn't, what happens if naver doesn't sponsor it in a few seasons? (or maybe even sooner)

Wow. I remember western teams lambasting Korean teams in 2010-2 bout their terrible marketing and business acumen. But KESPA really knows marketing.
Byun, best player in the world!

I bet the next sponsor's name will start with S.

well they probably wouldn't have tried to kill Sc2 in the beginning if they would have switched right away. So I guess Sc2 in Korea would be better off. It is good to see them make up for what they did around WoL, even though they only do it for their own benefit.

But judging from what they tried when they did come over to Sc2. They would have shut down Gom hard and we would have no english streams and no Koreans coming over to international events.

I am pretty egoistic though so I dislike this Korea centric development greatly that they enforce. So my bias is easily explained.

Then it becomes unsettled again and something else will be figured out, probably. But for now, everyone gets to chill out over acronym rage, and that's neat.

I understand where you're coming from, but what exactly have the German eSports Association done for eSports in Asia?

GeSPA allowed inferior Korean players like Patience to come and get wrecked by true EPS heroes like HasuObs, whose skill is ten times higher than any silly GSL champion.

Time for Google to sponsor WCS NA. Or for Google and Blizzard to co-sponsor WCS in general.
They hate us 'cause they ain't us.
