No matter how good BW is supposed to be, it hurts my eyes to watch it. It looks like something that would run on a Sinclair Spectrum.



Actually the quality on BW was better than GomTV's free low setting for SC2. Most of the time Gom was just purple pixels with a few dark shadows moving around, functioned better as a radio broadcast.

I can't technically confirm anything but the word on the street is that GSL is highly unlikely to live through the purchase. The real question is where the money that was going towards GSL from Blizzard for WCS goes next.

So to chime in a bit, Mr. Chae told me about this over lunch a few days ago.

To answer the biggest question, GSL Season 3 is going nowhere. It will still be live-streamed on Twitch, but we may start doing re-streams on AfreecaTV. What the live-stream quality will be I do not know, nor do I believe we have any control over it.

WCS 2016 is a complete question mark at this point.

Maybe I'll have to start actively watching Brood War if there's gonna be more leagues for it in the future :D

<3 <3 <3 I hope that Blizz finds a good solution that allows both BW and SC2 to grow while complementing each other in a way that's advantageous for everyone involved and both games.

That's some excellent news, I eagerly look forward to it

It is excellent news if you predominantly follow BW but worrying if you follow SC2, or am I misunderstanding it?

Yeah i rather wait till official news are out there.
But it was pretty clear that GSL has/had troubles, wouldn't surprise me one bit if next year GSL would be gone

That'd be such a shame! But I will follow the GSL music guy wherever he goes.

I hope there still will be two korean leagues, sure GSL was there from the beginning, but overall the quality was decreasing (or not increasing fats enough)
Well we will see what happens.
