JYP's statement as his debut as a commentator for GSL
"I didn't expect such an opportunity, I accepted this because it looked like a good one. I am practicing commentating watching old games, but it's still awkward to be honest"
" Canata from Spotv is doing a excellent job, and that makes me think I should do as good as him as another ex-progamer, It's my goal to hear fans saying JYP is doing so well as a commentator. "

Glad JYP is landing well.

Wish GSL would kick out 1-2 more maps and try out Cactus Valley and Echo though.

This is a really big deal. Sbenu is the official sponsor for the LoL OGN tournaments and sponsored the BW tournament OGN sponsored earlier this year.

Holy shit, God Bless Sonic. I think he's like the ultimate e-sports fan dream. Passionate fan becomes successful businessman, and uses his marketing budget/influence to help grow his business and e-sports.Is he going to literally sponsor 3 of the biggest esports leagues in Korea at the same time??

I was going to buy shoes in the name of awesome kpop star commercials (in spite of Syle being a hater :-< ) but I'll have to buy more stuff now.

Also: I love my ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)STYLE START SBENU( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) like everyone else, however I feel this commercial didn't get the love it deserved since it only aired during the Grand Finals, iicr.

nope, Korea only as I recall and I think bigger sizes are hard to find (based on some TLers experience)

Sweet! Does that mean Hot6ix is no longer the main sponsor for GSL? Or is it just another sponsor for GSL?

And, hopefully this will mean that VODs will come out like SPL and SSL. I'm one of the fans who wants to subscribe but can't afford to, atm.
