The announcement of the next sponsor for the world's most prestigious e-Sports league, the OnGameNet Starleague, was announced last night at the conclusion of the tving Starleague finals.



'Auction', a Korean internet shopping mall/auction site, will be the new sponsor for this upcoming league. With the slogan, 'All Kill', OnGameNet said that Auction have been following the Starleague for quite some time, and was excited to promote their brand name.

That's cool that we have a brand new sponsor though, hopefully sc2 OSL means no more charity sponsorships from kespa teams.

Cultural I guess, but I don't get it. www.youtube.com/gryffes - Random Gaming Videos.

BrosephBrostar Profile Blog Joined December 2009 United States 445 Posts #13 So why would this company sponsor SC2 but not BW? It doesn't seem like they're trying to advertise to international viewers, and as far as I can tell SC2 is still not very popular in Korea.

The thing is that it has potential to be a popular game in Korea. Just like it happened everywhere else. If GSL is happy with subscriptions, OGN will be too.
