Rumors are rumors. Though, I wouldn't mind seeing Bisu go back to Broodwar. Watching him struggle in Starcraft 2 is frustrating.

So I guess that's it. Game might live fine outside Korea, but who the hell cares about that.

By the way SNM started to post all those crazy rumors just because Ethan_Ahn tweeted : "Cataclysm in 31th Aug. ~ 1th Sep. #esports"

Lets see how much of this is true. STX Soul disbanding turned into stx dropping the sponsorship and a new team for gstl afterall.
I just really hope the downsizing sc2 teams part isn't true, I mean what do you want with 5-6 players if kespa strength has always been having a lot of practice partners/b teamers.

Let me know if I missed anything, or if you want it formatted differently. I figured I'd save everyone time by summarizing instead of posting the actual tweets.

This looks like KeSPA chairman cleaning e-sports house in Korea. However, it's pretty obvious we will never get a SC2 proleague as similar as before, maybe not even compared the season just finished. It's all about LoL now.
