The man is a fucking saint. SBENU is also the main sponsor of GSL this season.
Curiously, this means BW and SC2 SSL have the same sponsor.

As well as GSL, SC2SL is also sponsored by Sbenu.
Hyo Jin Hwang, the president of Sbenu, also known as Sonic, said "SC2SL, which is being produced in multiple languages and broadcast to the whole world, had some common qualities with Sbenu that is also becoming an global brand. Sbenu will do its best for the growth and development of e-sports, including SC2SL"

3SL is clearly the only choice. Sounds like a catchy GSL.

I'm browsing Sonic's website but... What is "Option" ? Is it "Shoe size" ?
T_T all that i want is sold out

In other news, SBENU plans on buying Blizzard next month, and eSports next year.

How long before South Korea just becomes SBENU Korea?
Sonic is a literal god at this point.

This guy should be made an eSports God. Such a good guy.
3SL is epic though lol

As far as I cant express My gratitude towards Sonic for doing all the great stuff for both bw and sc2, is it a healthy sign that almost all of Korean Starcraft is now being sponsored by 1 company?
|
I hope Sonic keeps sponsoring S2SL and GSL for at least another year or so. Things can change, but Sonic is awesome for sponsoring BOTH Korean SC2 leagues like this.
|
Wait wtf. I saw this thread pop up and just assumed it was the old one and I'd misremembered and he was sponsoring SSL the whole time, not GSL.
Based Sonic.

They did have one line of shoes with the outline of a mutalisk on it, but I guess they discontinued it.

It should be just SSL really, it's silly to change the acronym every time the title sponsor changes.

Wait is this the same Sonic from the last few years who was holding the Sonic Starleague for BW?
|
Although I think it would be ideal to have two different sponsors for the primary leagues (to give a sense of competition between them), Sonic is a true eSports hero and has done so much for the Starcraft scene, both BW and SCII, that I think it's ok. I, for one, welcome our new SBENU overlords.

thats usually how they work. In BW the two individual leagues OSL and MSL almost always had a different/new sponsor every season.

I really wonder if Sonic might decide to sponsor a proteam in the near future, that could be a next step imo

Are they still also sponsored by NAVER or was that only the 1 season?

All hail Sonic, but please don't change the league acronym every time the main sponsor changes (that is every season). We didn't call GSL in the past SEGSL, LG2SL nor H6GSL. Nor do we call the current Sbenu sponsored one SGSL... just GSL.
Pick one (preferably something to distinguish it from BW SSL) and stick with it already.
|
Why is there no S2SL option? Let's just stick with what we have?
Oh and Sonic is a god.

OSL and MSL both included the broadcaster in the name, so for me the ideal choice would simply be SSL ( with spotv being the broadcaster, much like mbcgame or ongamenet for that naming purpose) but yeah, thats just me :s so if people actually call it 3sl welp, thats what it is

The Sbenu shoes are too expensive for me, and I don't like their look. Glad that there is a sponsor for the League, I wonder which companies tried to sponsor the Tournament. I agree that it is not optimal to have one sponsor sponsor every league, though.

My problem isn't the price or the looks it's the fact they're all too small.

Sonic is a StarCraft legend. Keeping the BW scene strongly afloat while supporting SC2 is a great sign of unity.

I guess they would be too small for me too, but I didn't look at the sizes after I saw how much they cost, to be honest.

They go up to size 12 UK size which is like US 13 and EU 46. But at that size they only have 3 shoes.
