i don't even get why afreeca would even suppport sc2. NO SC2 STREAMS EVER on afreeca. if there is its usually 1000 view Max COMPARED TO 100K VIEWERS MAX FOR BW with TERROR

I think this is just some #passion of Mr. CEO of Afreeca and Mr. Chae. Like Tartosis said BW and SC2 should co-exist happily alongside each other. Saving both BW and SC2 is never a bad thing, unless you're Sonic and you're in a ton of debts....


nope not passion. I kinda think that this is blizzard's support. Didn't you see lot of blizzard ads during breaks? There is absolutely no reason afreeca should sponsor sc2. They need to do like 30% for bw and 70% for LoL. SC2 is dead game in korea.


Actually the CEO of AfreecaTV was also the CEO of WeMade during their time in eSports, so it's not his first time throwing a lot of support for something like this.

Also, if I had to imagine, the plethora of Blizzard ads is likely an effort between two companies trying to work together. The transition from BW to SC2 in Korea was not good and I would even say some users felt betrayed. Blizzard likely wants to rebuild a bridge with these users, even if it means supporting both BW and SC2.

I really believe that if Blizzard actively supports BW, it will mean a lot to those that had a falling out with them over the transition.

Well the last info we got was that they were apparently supposed to be released last Monday (Jan 18) but were delayed because of the whole SBENU disaster. So I would assume we're getting into Actually Very Soon™ territory now.

Whenever I see "Afreeca" I think about some low tech streaming service ment for Africa. They should really think about rebranding if ever wanting to get big in the west...

They might have a long term view to support the franchise.
