Bye bye GSL I guess. Damn, that sucks. But they have super high operating costs... | ||

I don't know why, but they never ever seemed like a 'grounded, serious and stable company'... It always seemed like a millionare's fad.. somebody pumping money into a un-optimized system that's not self-sustainable. | ||

Can't we just enjoy both and go along with whatever happens ? Even though the studio now belongs to Afreeca, if they don't need the time slot they can totally continue renting to GOM for the GSL even if they don't do any SC2 themselves at Afreeca. Also, the GSL could move again. So be happy about more BW, don't mourne the GSL just quite yet. | ||

Yes, we have been running events along side the GSL for the past month with more events planned throughout season 3. If the GSL participates in the 2016 Season, I do not imagine scheduling to be an issue. Don't forget Mr. Chae works in our eSports department and I'm sure he is more than willing to work around the GSL (as well as others who wish to use the studios). | ||

I think if it came down to it they could easily go back to Brood War. It would be incredible for the foreign Brood War scene to have such high-level casters and would attract record numbers. That's assuming that has to happen though. | ||

Would hate to lose the GSL.  | ||
