EPTStill can't believe they would kill the WCS leagues after stating they'd support LotV long after shelf sales. Especially after the super positive community event where they invited everyone to their HQ and everyone left happy there knowing SC2 would be good in the future.

look at how Naniwa and Lilbow did in WCS in previous year, you keep fucking saying Blizzcon is the best 16 players of the year, but you are going to have 8 foreigners? Seriously? | ||

No WCS Premier Only Koreans with visa (Polt, Hydra, etc) at IEM-style tournaments Everyone not playing Proleague is royally fucked on practice Somehow this qualifies 16 players for Blizzcon If this is true, it's the dumbest thing they've done since the inception of WCS. | ||

Harstem commented he couldn't stay in Korea longer because he had no idea when WCS would start. Makes me so sad that after years Blizzard still hasnt found a course yet for WCS. Still can't believe they would kill the WCS leagues after stating they'd support LotV long after shelf sales Well, they're still annoying tournament organizers with a WCS system. That's "support", no? | ||

Only way to have maximum fake hype is to have the finals of BlizzCon be the "World's champion" vs "Korea's champion" | ||

It was like better version of S2 Riot circuit. Funnily enough, I'd take 2016 version for LoL instead. Because it could give us proper OGN, proper oldschool LPL, funny GPL and white guys roaming like they did in 2012 but without Azubu Blaze punching North America. But eh, I don't think Blizzard will go on with it. Like, no way you're doing it, tournament orgs will just drop WCS points and then Blizzcon will feature glorious showdown of Polt, Hydra + 6 against the best performers of Code S + SSL. | ||

Because seriously, I'm not seeing much reason to watch weekend tournaments without Koreans. Agreed. Blizzcon hype will be soooo dead if they go down this road. | ||
