This is a response by the eSports Federation(hereafter ESF) to KeSPA's recent decision to join GSL5.

To put it short:

1. ESF is saying they thank and welcome KeSPA's quick response and their deicision to join GSL5.

2. But their decision on not playing their players in the OSL until KeSPA decides to join the GSL still stands.

3. The reason is that KeSPA has still not changed their stance on allowing their players in the GSL in a continuous fashion. (KeSPA is saying they'll join GSL5, nothing on GSLs afterwards nor the imminent GSL4).

4. ESF has made a request to Gomtv to extend the deadline for GSL4 qualifiers applications, which was set to end on the 27th of August.

-I'll try and see if I can translate the article in its entirety later if nobody has done so by then-

The plot thickens.

I wonder what Kespa will do in return.

KeSPA has absolutely no choice but to comply.

Auction All-Kill OSL cannot fail. It would destroy any hope of Korean SC2 ever approaching a hint of the glory it had with Brood War.

Kespa should let every team decide to participate or not in GSL S4 and not make the decision as a whole.

The only right move by ESF. Kespa can't be trusted in their saying to join Season 5.

You could just ask the op of the other thread to include this is the OP. No need for 2 threads on this.

They should let every player decide whether they want to or not.

This is when things get interesting.
Now Kespa either submits, losses face and plots revenge or goes for an all-out war.
Makes no sense for them to start fighting now but who knows.

This is intense, *popcorn+shutter shades*. Interesting how ESF picked up on the fact that Kespa agreed to join GSL 5 and nothing about the GSL's after that.

As expected.
Nobody can fool NesTea with empty promises for future tournaments.
