Gong Goon is just the Korean name for Air Force.

what do the korean comments of the article say? i want to know what they think =/
|
B team players are too busy sitting on the bench to participate in GOM
If the teams don't want their star players to participate then okay, but it's not fair to their other players that yet to accomplish anything and do want to participate.

This is a shame.
At least we can say the first three years were a success. Winners? Jaedong, Bisu and Flash :D.

We know that A-team work like horses, but this tournament gives chances to B or C teams.
KeSPA probably have their foot on this.

"too much workload for progamers"
what kind of horseshit is that? do these teams don't like winning prize money? they can't play an additional BO3 every other week with a very flexible schedule? they don't like to allow 3 to 4 b-team players enter a tourney asides from offline competition?

Exactly, it's ridiculous to think the teams themselves decided not to play. Kespa is throwing a hissy fit over Blizzard taking back competitive Starcraft in SC2, and, because Blizzard sponsored GOM season 3, Kespa's retaliating the best way possible, by trying to drive Blizzard's best link to competitive SC as it stands out of business.
Not that I blame Kespa or anything, they're out to make money, and could stand to lose a lot with the coming of SC2, but it seems like it's us and the players that lose due to this series of events.
