What Koreans play soccer? I was under the impression it went Baseball > SC. Baseball is extremely popular in Korea and Eastern Asia in general. Intrigued by this, have any stats to back this up, I'm genuinely interested. | ||

Blizzard is a software company, not a media production company, and every attempt they have made at it so far shows they have a ways to go. Would kespa style management work in the states? Maybe not, but it is designed to serve the industry located in a single city. There are things they could do better, but there are already a lot of things they do right. Are the people running KeSPA now the same ones who ran it when it was building (and actually helping) the Korean e-sports scene? I'd be very surprised if they are. | ||

When SC2 comes and eSports grows beyond their borders, they will find that they do not have the flexibility to adapt to the new environment. That being said, they are going to hold onto their chips for as long as possible, and create some drama in the meantime. Good post. Like all things it's a bit grey and there are multiple factors to weigh in making a decision. | ||
