starcraft is a job for them, and the guys who are most successful wouldnt dream of switching to a different game just cuz its 'starcraft 2'

what they do is play starcraft. they will probably all play sc2 in their time off but they are SC players until the scene goes under because thats their paycheck

Many of the questions tossed at the panel revolved around further popularizing StarCraft's appeal to professional gamers, and popularizing the "sport" in parts of the world other than Korea. Blizzard had mentioned there may be a deal forthcoming regarding broadcasting their games on television in North America.

It seems likely that they will definitely be the first dominant nation (maaaaaaaybe china due the sheer size of that country and the recent surge of esports popularity there) since it's the only country with an already established progaming scene.
