On topic: so much off topic :/ To be fair, the source material is extremely vague and doesn't have any actual value. So naturally the disussion around it will be all over the place. | ||

In reality there is NO reason for any party (kespa/blizzard) to switch Sc2 for BW for PL format or their main title. "BW is bigger than SC2 in korea" is ridiculous and plain wrong statement with no real evidence in the first place. At best they are on par. And don't even start with stream viewership numbers stuff with no kespa players allowed to stream. Save you breath for the day you see Maru/Dark/SoS/hero stream along with bisu and flash. About the technical side of the things: how on earth do you imagine a BW PL w/o a single pro kespa team and even a single kepsa pro player? This "switch" would require an enormous investment and i doubt it's even remotly possible in the nearest future. And for what? Change one B-title for another B-title discipline. Ditching SC2 for BW looks like an awfull and counterintuitive decision for both blizzard and kespa. It's just "not worth it" in a common sense. This is very spot on. Although in theory to the hardcore BW lovers this sounds like a way to reinvigorate the General RTS scene without some drastic quality of play changes to BW you'd have trouble pulling in new or casual players, even more so than SC2. BW HD would need to include features like unlimited unit selection, mbs, worker rally, etc to have a shot at appealing to a newer gaming generation and then it will frustrate the die hards. Not that BW HD couldn't be a cool thing to do but the business strategy makes little sense if it includes some sort of abandonment of any part of SC2. That's admitting failure not something Blizzard likes to do. I feel either way Blizzard is pushing the eSport part of all of this way too much. If they focused more on investing in the quality of the game the scene would thrive, instead of trying to force an eSport scene while the game itself is lacking. | ||

DK is the one who should be responsible for this. | ||

Well i saw MC streaming on afreeca and twitch simultaneously. In theory you would think he gets lots of viewers (dancing and singing + sc2) The truth is he was averaging about <100 viewers on afreeca, on twitch 500 - 1000. Why is byun, the famous terran player not streaming on afreeca? | ||

I'm korean and sc2 is completely irrelevant. Afreeca stream pretty much tells rest of the story. The fact that RAIN, one of biggest sc2's star, came to afreeca and got 100 viewers AFTER flash buffed him up with popularity basically summarize sc2's state. Rain chose to not even play sc2 but bw for viewers as well. Idk how you think sc2 is on par. PC bang statistics indicate that bw is 10 times more popular than sc2. (2.5% vs .23%). Afreeca streams also indicate that bw is way more popular because Afreeca is like the "twitch" of korea where all gamers stream.If Maru or Dark streams then they'll get 300 viewers max at best. NO ONE KNOWS WHO THEY ARE IN KOREA. THEY'RE COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT. When life was caught MATCH FIXING, koreans were like WHO IS HE? | ||
