The problem is i wonder how fair will be some matches. Imagine a poker online site organisating big tourneys and having a "staff "of ihis own players playing in...Don't tell me i'm paranoid , there was a scandal with mbc or ogn 1 or 2 years ago with tft or war 3 : they "balanced" secretly the game to adavantage some races , which was totally cheating the league..look : http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=765303

All the teams finally have sponsors.

good for KOR, they really deserved a sponsor.
edit: i guess that progamer reality tv show really worked in their favor.

Yay~
Quick summary:
1. OGN sponsors KOR 2. The sponsorship includes the expected: salaries for players and coaches based on their skill, incentives, dorm/practice facilities, vehicle, scouts, etc, etc. 3. OGN is part of the larger Orion group, so some cross-marketing synergy can be expected 4. A new team name, Logo, and uniform will be decided upon, along with fan input. This will take a while.
Not that OGN and MBCgame each have teams, and CJ is planning a game-related cable network, the OGN - MBC - CJ rivalry will be represented in eSports competition, kinda like how SKT and KTF are rivals.

Protoss progamers suddently became awesome or the new " macro maps" (Luna , Forte , r point , rov) was the reason ?

OMG, I almost had a heart attack. KOR ... the good days are here ... finally ...
|
I was wondering when they would get sponsored. Such a strong lineup.
|
wait...the same starcraft_side from years ago who won the 1st-2nd wcg before the boxe era?? ROFL he's still active O_O?
|
Yep, Joo Jin Chul, one of the oldest progamers along with Boxer, SiR@SoNi, Yellow, ChoJJa, ect
Edit: You're bound to have seen him, he's always in KOR's 2v2s

Someone said it was an effect they added and the players didn't even see it so it wouldn't distract the them.
