Today Forte said in his stream that MVP SC2 disbanded

[image loading]

This news came off as a shock, since they made a statement back in October saying they are not going to disband

Well... JIN AIR is holding the last line of defense but for how long?

Aw man, that sucks. I think their Dota 2 and CS:GO teams will still be around, especially since their Dota 2 team is still competing in the Boston Major.

But the near complete loss of team infrastructure in the Korean scene will still be a tragedy.

I'm surprised it took them this long. With no teams to compete against I wouldn't be surprised to see Jin Air disband by the end of the year. This must be what's taking Blizzard so long with the WCS announcement: they need to know if there will be a Korean scene next year.

I feel like the existence of teams doesn't really impact on the WCS system, it's an individual tournament. When did Blizzard announce last year, it was similarly late right?

At some point it stops being a meme and starts being something that has to be accepted: the game is all but dead in Korea.

I tend to like better sources before we news something serious like this... But sadly I don't doubt this

MVP has players and teams in literally every goddamn game. The fact that SC2 seems less worth it in Korea than like CSGO which no one in Asia plays is a horrid sign of the environment we're dealing with

It's incredible what has happened to the Korean SC2 scene. I hope it can bounce back somehow.

MVP was taking a "Wait and See" approach for WCS 2017 before they made a choice I think. So either they got tired of waiting....or they know something we don't

So the korean sc scene that basically created esports is now dead. Mindblowing. I guess the koreans prefer watching lol, that kart game and overwatch who appeals to 12 years olds.

Very hard. Gaming market has changed too much at this point. On top of that they couldn't even convince the BW crowd that SC2 is what they should switch to.

I love RTS and I hope Blizzard one day can make an RTS that brings in the big crowd.
