Does anybody know what is Kespa's stance on this? I mean they have been fairly possesive of their players in the past, when it comes to attending Blizzard/SC2 events. | ||

This is a tactic to get the BW fanbase's money and maybe even korean's attention on SC2 Blizzcon is only PPV if you want HD stream/extra developer panels. Also Gom is most likely going to do the Korean broadcast so it's going to be free for Koreans anyways. Even besides that I mean Korean BW has always been fairly ignorant of the foreign scene. I doubt they care for a few showmatches in an american event with players they see every other week anyways. | ||

Otherwise, pretty cool news and fingers crossed for a BW tournament Their presence is good for e-sports in general in the West. People tend to assume the majority of people who watch SC2 only do so because of graphics are better etc. I think that is wrong, people like the thrill of the competition. I'm confident BW will gain western spectator interest with a move like this. I wouldn't care if Jaedong, Jangbi, Fantasy and Bisu played Angry Birds tournament in main stage, I would still watch it. They are awesome nevertheless. | ||

Or...on your computer.... It'll be interesting if they play SC2....I don't really mind at this point, but it'll be interesting to see how quickly they'll grasp the game. Shouldn't take very long. | ||

Just imagine seeing 4 of the best strategy game players in the world discovering how to play a new game. It'd be a treasure trove of learning to see what they focus on learning and how they improve. Would be sick :D | ||
