Regardless of the situation, we will still action upon "dead game" comments. As this is a sensitive issue for SC2 fans, please do not come into this thread and talk about SC2 players switching over to BW. This thread is also not about bashing Blizzard, David Kim, or the WCS system.

Hopefully Blizzard makes Warcraft 4 or Starcraft 3. I don't think the RTS genre is dead, it can be saved with some innovations I think. But bringing Starcraft 2 back to where it was seems like a dream.

Not the end but a big blow. I sure hope that Blizzard's plan for the future is a convincing one.

Fomos reports that Afreeca is likely to disband as well, but no official confirmation just yet. Meanwhile Jin Air vows to continue supporting its players:

Does Afreeca have a team in SC2?

Nah, all future eSports are going to be designed around mass-appeal and microtransactions, with the competitive scene being a byproduct of everything else. WC4 is probably going to feel more like Dota LoL Heroes of the Storm than StarCraft.

I'm very emotional right now. SC2 is more than a game, its almost like a lifestyle.

No other game in the market can fill its void... I tried Overwatch, Heroes, CS:GO, everything..

WC4 could be huge now that people are used to those kind of games you crossed out as esports though. WC3 was ahead of its time for sure.

I wonder how Blizzard will adjust to this. I mean, despite what people say, SC2 as a whole is far from "dead", a shitload of people still play and watch the game - mostly foreigner. It was super unpopular in Korea for a while now.

I don't doubt WC4 will be huge. If Blizzard does release a WC4 they would be doing so with the intention of it being the 'biggest' eSport, which means they would have to design the game around mass-appeal which will probably lead to a game like Overwatch which sucks competitively.
