I'm actually quite curious as to whether they dropped the registration fee for Proleague. If I remember correctly from the articles about EG-TL entering Proleague, that fee isn't just small change, and I honestly don't see ESF teams being able to shoulder it easily. On the other hand, Proleague does offer them a regular stage to promote themselves, so it has that going for it (unlike GSTL which runs incredibly short compared to it). edit: Anyways, I wish him best of luck in his future endeavors. If he is only willing to put in half the effort he put in as a progamer, then he'll undoubtedly be successful whatever he ends up doing. | ||

Hope he'll at least change his mind and come back to Sospa. | ||

Wasn't there recently this pro gamer conference where IM, Prime and MVP were in attendance alongside the KeSPA teams? (the one which had both SC2 and LoL players there and a bunch of funny pictures). I think that was what pretty much confirmed those teams for PL. Although you should have said ex-eSF teams then. However, Woongjin can't possibly participate in the upcoming PL then? With 2 players on their roster. It would be so strange to have a KeSPA team not participate at all. Or maybe they will just merge with another team for their ProLeague participation. (i.e. something like Woongjin.Prime) | ||

I think right now Europe is the largest scene for SC2 and its declining here as well, so that is really scary. | ||

Its one thing if there were new players coming through the ranks all the time, but these are rare and far between. I think right now Europe is the largest scene for SC2 and its declining here as well, so that is really scary. Well the good news is that in KR we are still having full saturation of the GSL, that is, Code A is full of quality talent, Code S is full of quality talent, and there are still huge brackets of players trying to qualify for Code A each season. | ||
