"KeSPA and OnGameNet have received official licenses to run and broadcast SC II leagues. SC II is now an officially recognized kespa game. KeSPA, Blizz, Gom, and OGN have agreed to work together to help SC II esports develop in Korea, etc etc. Next season of PL will have SC2. No official word on mixed with BW, or just SC2."

nice, that's about the best announcement anyone was hoping for and the general expectation, but it's still exciting.

ESFI World translation:

[11:25] Will the Proleague/OSL be SC2 only or SC1 & SC2?
Mr. Lee: Officially speaking, Proleague season 2 will begin on 3rd week of May, and it will be both SC1 and SC2. We are still looking into the details of the format that can satisfy both SC1 and SC2 fans. We will probably announce the details by 2nd week of May. For OSL, the new season will begin on October, and it will be a complete transition to SC2. We are still discussing about the requirement of Proleague players. Since it will be both SC1 and 2, it will be hard to change SC1 players to SC2 players in terms of membership. By October, SC1 will vanish and everything will move to SC2. GSTL players is discussing this matter with GomTV and we will discuss with them as well.

oh god that split-screen is fucking with me

I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO LOOK

itsweb

late game zvp is so frustrating to watch, thank god i don't have to play it

Saaruto

Yeah this game needs to end

Dhalphir

I am going to be cheering so hard for Naniwa tonight.
I don't even fucking care that its TvP the most bullshit matchup in the world. And I don't care that Naniwa is/was a jerkbutt, or that Mvp is a hero.

I want a foreigner in the finals of GSL, and for that to happen naniwa has to beast all over Mvp. Bring on the worst you have, Mr TvP.

I have grown disstastefull of Sc2, after seeing the way the majority of the Sc2 community acts twords BW ((I was playing Sc2 since beta)).. So I have decided im going to keep playing BW.. Also LoL seems awfully tempting..

Yep.

Anzekay

Fuck Naniwa. Normally I'd cheer for a non-korean, but not him.

Variable

no argument from me really, I just like an underdog in general

Dhalphir

Naniwa is the only foreigner in a position to do well in GSL for a long time, so its him or nobody. ill cheer for him if h ave to.

Anzekay

I just can't bring myself to cheer for him despite all that.

Saaruto

HerO forgot warp gate wtf

EDIT: it's cool stephano fucked up his drop I guess

Variable

how can you forget warpgate when you have to make units out of a gateway instead of warping in? seems impossible

edit - nevermind I get it he think it's going, derrrrr

what of stephanos possible future gsl attempt

Variable

he plays zerg

mEEksa

All the Code S Terran are good against Zerg, and I would argue that ZvT is Stephano's worst match-up, so Stephano would need some good groups to get far.

Saaruto

So are any NAer's staying up to watch Nani or mainly just catching the VODs the next morning?

Variable

just lost to a cannon rush

how could that happen you may wonder?

the ggwp! I got that actually made me think he wasn't a pathetic piece of shit

but no, he just needed that to trick me so he could win (I basically just stopped playing. dumb, yes, still I'm pretty fucking pissed. not really surprised though! and it will never happen again)

actually i would like to know this too - its kind of a significant match and if people dont want it spoiled i wont talk about it in thread during game

but i bet vari will stay up, at least

mEEksa

If people don't want to be spoiled on GSL they shouldn't read the thread.

Anzekay

Yeah I always watch stuff first before reading the thread if I don't want spoilers.

fair point

redraptor

I will make the earliest prediction the Soulkey will be one of the most succesful BW to SC2 players. You will see creep spread into the opponent's main by the 4 minute mark.

His Corkiness

Prepare to get Hyuk'd.

Saaruto

I wonder if any of the BWers will switch races...that would be awesome.
