KeSPA has stated that although Brood War is in this season of SK Planet Proleague, the main title for this season is Starcraft II and we will most likely see them remove Brood War in the future seasons to focus entirely on Starcraft II.Despite concerns about StarCraft 2's reception among the remaining Brood War players, those interviewed at the event seemed generally positive about their experience with the game.Both players and coaches also mentioned that they received help from outside their respective organizations, even from StarCraft 2 players in some regards.
