I love the SC scene, i love the JvF hype and the MSL/OSL finals. SC has been the most important game for esports in my view, along with perhaps Quake and CS. But that quote of yours goes both ways you know SC2 have really picked up since its release. Strategies are coming together, players are getting crazy good. It's all there infront of you, but some people just dont want to look I guess. | ||

In the contextof the above post ? Sad news, I like one sided games, and we had good games between koreans last year. Plus motherfucking kolll is still playing for instance^^ The amount of trolling is pretty funny though. | ||

the games at any tournament are more about sponsorship and money than how skillful the game is, thats why wcg has games like guitar hero and dead or alive and cell phone games at wcg, and the public interest for BW outside korea is just way too low to justify having it at the tournament. This isn't a big blow to BW anyway, most korean progamers just like to go overseas to play and meet the foreign fans since they rarely get to travel given their career and never get to compete on an international stage. I've read interviews and they've said they aren't practicing much and just playing for fun so even though WCG is the most prestigious tournament for most other games its incredibly insignificant as far as BW goes | ||

I respect SC2 & BW the same Though I like watching BW over SC2, and play SC2 or BW because its a bit more easy. That's just my thoughts. | ||

Evolving means coping with the demands for today. SC is not viable any longer (in a world-wide, esports way). It might be really sad, but its true. | ||

For anyone that missed it, WCG 2010 was a joke in terms of foreigners. | ||

On the other hand, the foreign scene is getting pretty weak. I'm also interested about a possible future return if bw rebounds abroad, is there any precedent in wcg for a game going away but coming back later? Counter Strike 1.6->CS:S->CS 1.6. It can happen if SC2 dies out. | ||
